Loadout Recommendations

Expect to encounter Taken Wizards and Vex Minotaurs; consider bringing at least one mid-to-long-range Void weapon to punch through the Energy Shields these enemies utilize.

When you begin the Adventure, bursts of energy appear near the large tree to the south. Follow the looping path as you ride (or run) through the fonts of power. Collect five units of energy to receive your next objective.

Your next task is to use melee attacks to defeat eight Vex. A marker appears whenever suitable targets are nearby.

You can use weapons and Abilities to weaken your prey, but the objective only progresses when you use a melee attack to strike a killing blow against a Vex unit.

Once you’ve used melee attacks to defeat eight Vex, a new objective marker leads you to a large font in Terrabase Charon. Prepare yourself for the coming battle, and then activate the nearby console.

As the font charges up, Taken Thralls move into the area. They come from all directions, so stay alert, and don’t hesitate to relocate whenever you’re in danger of being overwhelmed. Hold off your attackers until the font finishes charging and you receive your next objective.

Next, you must destroy the Taken Blights scattered around the area. Luckily, the fully charged font produces Orbs of Light. With a steady supply of Super energy, you should be able to clear the area fairly quickly. Once you’ve destroyed all four Blights, turn your attention to the remaining Taken forces and the incoming Vex assault.

The encounter can be fairly hectic, and you’ll face a few formidable opponents before it’s over. Void weapons and Abilities are particularly effective against Taken Wizards and Vex Minotaurs, but frequent use of your Super Ability should allow you to complete this Adventure with minimal fuss.
