Public Events

Check out the maps at the start of the Moon chapter to find where the events occur and how often.

Defend the Warsat

Locations:Archer’s Line, Hellmouth, Anchor of Light

A flash of light represents the touchdown of a Warsat in the area as a one minute timer begins a countdown. One Guardian must deploy their Ghost to start the event. A circle appears around the satellite. As you stand inside it, a meter starts to fill with a number inside. Your objective is to guard the Warsat until the number reaches 100. Step out of the circle and the meter pauses. The more Guardians that are linked (standing inside the circle), the faster the meter fills. Enemies are constantly dropped in as a timer counts down from four minutes. In Hellmouth, it is possible to have two Factions, the Fallen and Hive, attacking the Warsat.

Eliminate the Target

Locations:Hellmouth, Anchor of Light

An enemy appears in the area and slowly makes its way to a certain destination. Your objective is simply to eliminate it before it gets there. It is always a special enemy with more vitality and aggressive behaviors than the norm. Its progress through five checkpoints is given on the left of the screen, along with a timer. Take it down before the timer reaches 0 and it reaches checkpoint 5 to complete the event.

Defeat Extraction Crew

Locations:Archer’s Line, Hellmouth

A crew of Fallen are dropped into the area as they attempt to extract precious Glimmer. The Guardians must clear the drill site by killing all of the Fallen. Once one crew has been defeated, a second shows up elsewhere in the zone. Clear out three drill sites to complete the event and earn a Gold Tier.

Destroy Fallen Walker

Location:Anchor of Light

A Fallen drop ship delivers a Devil Walker into the public space. Now it is up to the Guardians to defeat the tank, before it causes too much trouble. Take down the target in the same manner as in the Earth Strike, Devils’ Lair. Do so before the five-minute timer reaches zero to complete the event with a Gold Tier. Remember that it is invulnerable until its lights come on.

Gold Chests

1:Temple of Crota

Enter the temple, drop to the lowest floor, and spin to the right to find the exit. Follow the path further into the Hive temple. Cross the bridge into the ship and continue out the right side—stopping at the end of the ramp. Look down to the right to spot a small platform with a Gold Chest.

2:Archer’s Line to Hellmouth

As you make your way to Hellmouth from Archer’s Line, look for a rock formation on the left just before the short bridge. Look behind it to find this Gold Chest.

3:Archer’s Line to Hall of Wisdom

Climb the hill across from the starting point in Archer’s Line, cut through the debilitated dome structure, and follow the path into the Hive fortress. Take the spiral ramp down to the bottom of the cave or simply drop down. Enter the water to the right of the Hall of Wisdom entrance to find the chest.

4:The World’s Grave

Find this Gold Chest inside the final room of The World’s Grave. Drop into the water right away and search along the rocky wall to get your reward.

5:The Summoning Pits

This chest is only accessible during the Moon Strike, The Summoning Pit. Move over to the lower platform at the far end of the arena and search between the two staircases.

Dead Ghost Locations

1 Archer’s Line

From the landing zone, approach the cargo accelerator that spans across the zone and turn left. Climb up the pile of containers and search the right side of the accelerator tube to find a Dead Ghost in a small nook.

2 Archer’s Line

Find the moon dome at the top of the hill, near the accelerator. Look over the edge to the right to spot a Dead Ghost resting on a narrow ledge below.

3 Anchor of Light

Locate the main building with a giant satellite dish. You'll have to climb and jump up the girders in order to find the dead ghost on one of the supporting beams.

4 Temple of Crota

At the Temple of Crota, a Dead Ghost is visible through a grating in the courtyard, but you must descend to the bottom of the temple and make your way back up to get it. Clamber up a rock pillar, cross some platforms, and finally reach the terminal where the collectible sits.

5 Hellmouth

Located near the entrance from Archer’s Line, a couple open buildings surround a big crack in the Moon’s surface. Enter the central structure and search around the computer on the left. Sitting on the console, opposite a dead astronaut, is another Dead Ghost.

6 Circle of Bones

Upon entering the area, follow the right-hand side, down a hallway, to find a u-shaped window; once there, jump on the ledge. From the ledge, double-jump to the area behind it. Now follow the railing on the side to find the Dead Ghost.

7 Gatehouse

Enter the Gatehouse and step off to the left side of the overlook. A Dead Ghost sits on a pillar, just off of the rock ledge.

8 Hall of Wisdom

Inside the Hall of Wisdom, just before the exit to Circle of Bones, look toward the drop off on the left. Run over to the wall on the right side of this gap and walk out onto the narrow strip of rock to collect a Dead Ghost.

10 Shrine of Oryx

During the Shrine of Oryx mission, as you cut through the corridor between Hall of Wisdom and the shrine, look for the pile of bones in the corner, where you fight the Thrall and a Knight.Resting atop the pile is the Dead Ghost.
