Ging Light here with another quick Destiny 2 guide. Today, I’ll be walking you through the Alone in the Dark mission in Destiny 2, where you track down a Fallen ghost and make progress towards your weekly seasonal challenge. This mission can be a bit lengthy and involves a few mini-boss fights, so you might want to consider a decent loadout and perhaps even a teammate to help you out.
Getting Started
Firstly, load into the Blooming and follow the path I outline here to kickstart your mission. Early on, you’ll encounter a glitch with the crow. If the crow lit up but doesn’t move, you’ll need to reload the area to continue.
Mission Walkthrough
1. The Seclusion:
- Encounter the crow and follow it, bypassing most enemies until you reach the boss fights.
- Swing among the cave and down into deeper sections following the crow.
2. Mini-Boss and Pathfinder Mission:
- Engage in your first mini-boss fight and consider completing the Pathfinder Mission in the area to defeat a high-value target, saving you time later.
3. Teleportation and Another Portal:
- After exiting the cave, you’ll teleport to Z Vol’s house. Here, you can skip enemies and follow the bird, or opt to complete the Pathfinder mission located in the back right corner of the map.
4. Boss Fight Strategy:
- In the boss fights, stay in the shadows to avoid damage.
- Rotate around the room and engage bosses on both sides to access the crystals.
- Shoot all three crystals to bring down the boss’s shield and repeat until you can damage the boss.
5. Completing the Mission:
- Once the main boss is defeated, the mission concludes, allowing you to progress in your seasonal challenge.
I hope this guide helps you breeze through the Alone in the Dark mission in Destiny 2. Catch you in the next guide—peace!
