Description
- Investigate the Exodus Black weapons locker.
The final crew member is sprawled across the clump of stalagmite rock formations just north of the Fallen base. Examine this corpse, and you can begin to track the signal. Hop on a Sparrow, driving southward out of Exodus Black and into the Glade of Echoes Sector. Expect the objective to update and Fallen ships to drop several foes into the vicinity.
Ignore the Fallen in the larger central part of this Sector, and hike up to a small Vex cluster among the cube-shaped formations and wreckage, where you should locate and hack a signal terminal. At this point, you must hold this position against incoming Fallen forces, though the Goblins and Minotaur in this area are first to taste your wrath.
Expect Dregs, Shanks (of the Exploder kind), and Vandals in the first wave. Remain near the satellite terminal. Then, expect Tracer Shanks, more Dregs, Marauders, and more Vandals. The Shank variants are the biggest problem because they are explosive and have wicked shots, so make them priority targets. Stay mobile, jumping and using the cube blocks for cover. When you have culled all foes in the vicinity, the objective updates.
The next part of the plan involves battling new clusters of appearing Vex foes, along with any Fallen in the vicinity. Scan the area to pinpoint a Vex Elite (in this case, a toughened Minotaur near the exit to Exodus Black), and engage it in battle. Then, head down into the debris gorges in the center of this Sector to tackle a toughened Hobgoblin before heading northward to take on a Hydra. The open area and your general competence should make these battles relatively straightforward.
Examine the area by scanning for an in-game waypoint, and then maneuvering north near the exit to Hallows. Ghost informs you that the mission has concluded. Now to track the ship’s captain.
