Doing so kickstarts “The Bladed Path,” which is the seasonal questline.
Then, it’ll immediately take you to your first round of Altars of Summoning to learn the ropes.
Here’s how it works.
You’re first sent to a large open room which a Savathun emblem available.
You’ll be tasked tobegin the Ritual of Induction.
for do so, step on the ring underneath the floating emblem, and activate the button prompt.
Then, follow the quest marker to find Eris Morn, and the activity will officially start shortly after.
Keep in mind that it’s a rather simplified glance at the activity.
These can be somewhat overwhelming while you’re still learning what to do.
For this, search forTribute Bearersaround the arena and take them down.
Here’s the second step.
You’ll notice a number of ritual circles around the arena.
One of them will emit a flashy, orange beam, and is usually surrounded by enemies.
That’s the one you gotta cross through while having the Burden of Tribute status.
It’ll automatically count toward the total, which is usually three.
Then, just go ahead and repeat the process until the boss' shield is removed.
you’re free to then continue to attack.
Yes, it means you’ll need to repeat the whole process again.
And yes, it is annoying.
Always ensure to deal as much damage as possible to the boss while you’re still standing.
you better take down threePrevailing Minds, which are the usual minotaur-pop in enemies.
There are two conditions that might stop your progress.
One involves the task toPrevent Vex Sacrifices, which requires you to hunt down marked enemies around the arena.
They’ll slowly move toward a Vex cube-shaped station.
Try and prevent them from doing so.
The second condition asks you toDestroy the Lenses.
This might save you some time.
Essentially, you better gather Arc Energy by attacking it with your melee action.
Then, using theCrystalline Charge, melee the marked crystals around the arena.
While you have a 15-second timer to do, it restarts whenever you successfully charge a crystal.
Once you’re done, head over to the designated area to invoke hive magic.
The boss will appear right afterward.
to get to destroy them, you should probably enter said shield to be able to damage them.
After destroying the designated number of crystals, you’ll be able todestroy the abominations.
The encounter usually ends with a fight against an Imprisoned Abomination.
There’s bound to be one of them prone to attacks somewhere around the arena.
As for the crystals themselves, they’re usually scattered around.
For this, either you or somebody else on your team can use one of the four marked stations.
As of now, I’ve encountered Feeble, Robust, and Powerful offerings.
The difference is in the difficulty of the summoning ritual.
Offerings are obtained by taking part in activities.
The armor perk, called Exhumed Excess, increases your chances of creating an additional offering during activities.
Each additional piece you equip increases says bonus, to a maximum of four items.
Of course, this will depend on your fireteam’s availability.
If anything, it’s possible for you to exit after obtaining a set of rewards from Eris Morn.
Just confirm to actually kick off the chest to claim them!
