Next, complete this week’s seasonal mission, Apophasis.
That’ll unlock the Exotic mission on the Director, which you might access from the HELM.
This is a pretty straightforward path, but there is something to find here before you continue too far.
There are paths to the right and left of this spot.
Inside is an opening with the first secret chest.
That’s your goal.
The barriers look like a blue mist and require the Sire’s Obligation buff to open.
The Sire’s Obligation buff lasts about 45 seconds.
Our run had bird, fish, and dragon icons, but these seem like they could be randomized.
These correspond to the three Taken Phalanxes scattered throughout the room.
Look for the Sire’s Obligation well to the left of the entrance to the arena.
Smaller enemies will also continually respawn, especially snipers, so be careful about moving around in the open.
Just ahead, you’ll find the Dam’s Gift buff in a well.
These indicate three locking mechanisms you’ll need to find throughout the next area.
It’s a bit of a maze, so you’ll need to explore a bit.
To the right is a field of orange mist you’re free to traverse with the buff.
Don’t go that way just yet, though.
Watch out for traps here, as bricks will move to push you off the ledge at certain places.
There are also enemies ahead, including snipers, so deal with them carefully before proceeding.
When you hit the third switch, all the Unwelcome mist will disappear.
Clear out all the enemies to launch the gate and progress.
It’s not especially difficult to cross, though.
You’ll exit into an open area with some enemies.
Make your way along the path to the right and follow it through the Vex structure.
Just in front of the barrier is the blue well for the Sire’s Obligation buff.
The other two Phalanxes are in caves that connect to this central location.
One is to the left of the barrier and the other is to the right of the orange well.
Icons can be found at the opening of the caves to tell you which Phalanx is inside.
When you pick up both, they combine into a new buff called Crowned by Dragons.
As before, though, you better continually reclaim the buff to keep the timer from running out.
If the buff timer expires, the barrier lock will reset and you’ll need to start over.
Inside is a big Vex Hydra called Akardon.
There are a lot of enemies in here as well, but also a lot of cover.
The toughest part is venturing out of cover to refresh the Crowned by Dragons buff and to gather ammo.
Once Akardon is dead, head through the round doorway it was guarding at the back of the room.
What does Wish-Keeper do?
Wish-Keeper Exotic Catalysts
There are four Exotic Catalysts for Wish-Keeper.
Here’s a rundown of each of those missions as they become available.
you oughta climb to the top of that spire.
Activate it and look up into the sky to see a glowing star above you.
Shoot that star with Wish-Keeper and you’ll see more glowing stars appear.
Keep shooting the stars to draw a constellation in the sky above you.
When it’s complete, you’ll unlock a message from Riven.
Head back toward the entrance to this area.
You’re looking for a pillar of orange light that marks a Dam’s Gift buff well.
When you find the well, you’ll have a stream of water and a waterfall on your left.
Behind the waterfall is a hidden cave that’s filled with orange mist.
With the Dam’s Gift buff, you might jump into the cave to find a secret chest.
That’ll give you the first Snareweaver upgrade for Wish-Keeper, buffing the bow’s stats.
The Catalyst will come out of one of the two final chests at the end of the mission.
Head to the Enclave on Mars to upgrade the bow.
Continue into the Spine of Keres until you reach the big tower with Mara’s Oracle Engine.
Climb up to that spot and activate it to create another constellation above you.
Shoot the stars with Wish-Keeper to activate another message from Riven.
With that done,you better complete the Legendary version of Starcrossed againto unlock the catalyst.
