Corridors

Super: Not available

Grenades: Not available

After the two Cabal Legionaries break through the wall, aim for their heads. Round the corner and aim down your sights to more accurately deal with the two additional Legionaries charging you. Back up as you fire, if necessary. Weave along the corridor until a Legionary ambushes you at close quarters. Execute him with a melee attack before encountering Cayde-6, who vanishes as quickly as he appears.

Additional Enemy Takedown Tactics

Every time you encounter a new enemy during the Campaign, consult the guide’s Bestiary for more in-depth takedown knowledge.

Cayde-6

“I’ve got a date with whoever’s behind this. It’ll be a short date.”

Cayde-6 is an Exo and Hunter Vanguard, and he’s a key ally for your cause. His dexterous and formidable combat prowess is matched only by his wit. Unfortunately, he’s headed elsewhere to fight the Red Legion.

New Actions

To ensure that you fully understand all the new actions you’re able to perform, check the list at the start of each section of this mission. Then, consult the guide’s Field Manual chapter for in-depth tactical knowledge on all those actions.

Upper Corridors and Bay 04

Super: Not available

Grenades: Recommended

Ascend the steps, and encounter Lord Shaxx tending to the citizens of the Tower. Enter his armory and grab a weapon. Descend the steps, and at the broken railing platform, throw a grenade down at two incoming Legionaries. Attempt to catch them both with a single explosion, then finish them off using your newly acquired Auto Rifle. Then, sprint along the corridor, passing the burning debris. Once in Bay 04, climb the metal steps, jumping the gap and grabbing the upper walkway, then pulling yourself up. Continue up and into the Tower hangar.

Additional Weapons Data

Learning about the differences between Kinetic and Energy weapons and how to remove enemy shields is critical to your success as a Guardian. Consult the Field Manual chapter for a complete overview of weapon classes and types, as well as information on weapon statistics, such as Impact, Range, Stability, Handling, Reload, RPM, and Magazine information.

Lord Shaxx

“If the Cabal want war, give them war!”

A mighty veteran commander of the Last City’s forces, decorated battle hero, and close friend of Zavala, Lord Shaxx is an imposing figure. Prior to this Red Legion attack, he ran the Crucible activities.
