Q & A

What is the main mechanic of the Crota's End raid in Destiny 2?

The main mechanic involves the Chalice of Light, which charges over time and must be passed between teammates to avoid death and to gain the Enlightened buff for completing various objectives.

How does the Chalice of Light work in the opening encounter of the raid?

One player picks up the Chalice of Light, which automatically charges. Once full, it must be passed to another player to avoid the holder's death. The Enlightened buff received from passing the Chalice is then dunked into a large plate to form a bridge.

What is the goal of the Lantern encounter in the raid?

The goal is to navigate a dark underground path by using the Chalice of Light to remove a debuff and to light lanterns, which eventually leads to the end of the path.

How does the Bridge encounter in the Crota's End raid differ from its Destiny 1 version?

Unlike in Destiny 1, in Destiny 2's version, players must pass the Chalice of Light to become Enlightened and dunk this buff into a central plate to form the bridge, while also managing death totem plates on both sides of the bridge.

What strategy is recommended for managing the Chalice of Light during the Bridge encounter?

It is recommended to set a vague order for passing the Chalice of Light, make clear verbal callouts for passing, and possibly preserve the Chalice at a podium to reduce the need for passing it back and forth.

How do players navigate through the green shield doors in the hallway mini encounter before the third major encounter?

Players need to be Enlightened to pass through the green shield doors. One Enlightened player kills a Shrieker to power down the door, allowing the rest of the team to pass through.

What is the objective of the Ear Ute boss fight in the raid?

The objective is to prevent Ear Ute from completing her death song by killing Hive Wizards in shielded rooms to initiate the DPS phase, where players can then damage the boss.

How can players identify rooms containing Hive Wizards during the Ear Ute encounter?

Players can identify wizard-containing rooms by getting close and checking their radar for the absence of large red circles, which indicate Shriekers, or by using the Wish-Ender bow for wall hacks.

What is the final encounter of the Crota's End raid and its main goal?

The final encounter is against Crota himself. The main goal is to de-shield Crota using the Hive sword and then damage him with weapons, eventually leading to his defeat.

What strategies are suggested for the Crota boss fight in terms of managing the Chalice of Light and dealing damage?

Strategies include using a Titan to distract Crota, managing the Chalice of Light within specific aura locations for exchange, coordinating sword attacks to de-shield Crota, and using Radiant Wells and a Tractor Cannon for increased damage and survivability during DPS phases.

😀Introducing Fallout and Raid Overview

The speaker introduces himself as Fallout. He states he will provide a guide for beginners to beat the Crota's End raid in Destiny 2. He notes most footage was recorded on harder contest mode. He says it will be much easier now. An overview of main raid mechanics using the Chalice of Light is provided.

05:01

🕯️Surviving the Lantern Section

This section explains the lantern encounter mechanics. Players must pass the Chalice of Light to gain an Enlightened buff to activate lanterns and remove a debuff. Some plates preserve the Chalice. Communication for passing the Chalice is key. Players can skip parts but it's risky. Reaching the end requires activating enough lanterns.

10:01

🌉Forming and Crossing the Summoning Bridge

The goal here is to form and cross a bridge. Players must pass the Chalice and dunk the Enlightened buff into a central plate to form the bridge initially. Then they must carry swords or the Chalice itself to cross. Swordbearers emerge after killing Champions. Five swords must be dunked on the far side before more Knights emerge to defeat.

15:02

☠️Damaging Oryx in the Deathsinger's Antechamber

This encounter focuses on damaging Oryx/Ir Anûk to interrupt her deadly song. Players split up initially, then pass the Chalice to gain Enlightenment. They must locate Wizards in shielded rooms to start DPS phases, avoiding decoy Shriekers. Callouts help coordinate Wizard killing and group DPS.

20:02

😈 Battling Crota Himself

The final fight against Crota works differently than in D1. Players still need to pass the Chalice for Enlightenment. Four Boomers spawn that lead to Ogres and a Hive sword. Swordbearers must de-shield Crota so the team can damage him. Breaking the oversoul ends DPS phases until Crota dies.

❓Extra Raid Content and Wrap Up

Fallout notes there is extra content like puzzles and chests he hasn't done yet. He pledges to share that info when he figures it out. He thanks viewers and asks for any other tips or feedback in the comments.

Transcripts

hey y'all my name is Fallout or so they

tell me and in today's guide I'm going

to show you how you can beat the crota's

and raid in D2 even if you're a super

beginner and have no experience raiding

at all just a quick note almost all the

footage you're gonna see was recorded on

contest mode where the raid was much

harder trust me though don't worry it'll

be way more doable for you and your team

now that contest mode is over

[Music]

jumping right in we have a very quick

opening encounter that will introduce

you to the main mechanic of the raid

you'll need to form a bridge into the

hellmouth in order to fall down into the

dark below one person has to pick up

this glowing ball of light AKA The

Chalice of light this is your primary

mechanic throughout the raid the Chalice

of light will charge up automatically

over time on your HUD and when the

charge meter is full you're gonna have a

brief window of time where one of your

teammates will have to take the Chalice

from you or else you will die once a

teammate has taken the Challenge from

you at full charge you will now have the

enlightened buff taking the Chows from a

teammate before they reach full charge

means they will not get the enlightened

Buff when you have the enlightened buff

dunk it into the large plate in the

floor to begin forming the bridge pass

the Chalice around after it reaches full

charge and continue dunking the

enlightened buff into the plate until

the bridge forms and then jump down

below to begin

the first real encounter is the lantern

encounter your goal is to make your way

to the end of a long linear path in the

dark underground like in D1 the D2

Lantern encounter is a little bit

different from how it was in D1 I will

explain how the Chalice of light is

right there when you begin and should be

picked up like before you'll have a

meter on your HUD that slowly begins to

charge and like before when it's full

you'll have a brief window of time where

you can keep holding it but if a

teammate doesn't take the Challenge from

you you will die so be prepared for a

lot of communication and passing the

Chalice back and forth during the

lantern encounter when your meter is

full and the Chalice is taken from you

by a teammate you again get the

enlightened buff the enlightened buff

can now be dunked directly into these

large lanterns sticking up out of the

ground the reason you want to do that is

that activating and standing near the

lanterns will gradually remove your

weight of darkness debuff which

constantly builds up over time and makes

you move very slowly so dunk enlightened

into the lanterns when you can to power

them up and remove your debuff but don't

stand near them for too long because

once activate stated they will

eventually explode Duncan into the

lanterns will also extend your engulfed

in darkness countdown timer which if it

ever reaches zero your entire team will

die no matter what a few lanterns will

randomly have a small object nearby that

looks like that that tiny little plate

or Podium or whatever you want to call

it will let you dunk the Chalice into it

and preserve the Chalice preserving the

Chalice is important because it will

awaken the next Lantern on your path

basically making it possible for you to

dunk your enlightened buff into it in

the first place the location of these

preserved plates won't be the same each

time though it's kind of random so be

sure to keep your eyes open by the way

after you've reached full charge with

the chalice and a teammate takes it away

from you you'll be smacked with a

drained of Light debuff which prevents

you from being able to take the Chalice

back from another teammate Bungie

probably did that to prevent just having

two people on the fire team passing the

Chalice back and forth while everybody

else on the fire team focuses only on ad

clear as you can imagine this means you

really need to plan ahead for who on the

team is going to take the Chalice from

who I really recommend and setting some

kind of vague order before starting of

who will take the Challenge from who as

you hot potato it around the fire team I

also recommend that you come up with

clear verbal callouts for when you want

a teammate to take the Chalice from you

as if they take it too early you will

not get the enlightened buff go through

the encounter activating lamps to remove

your weight of darkness and preserving

the Chalice of light in the random tiny

plates by the lamps when you find them

again make sure you look until you reach

the very end you can eager Edge

swordscape through parts of the lantern

encounter to avoid pendulums but that

can lead to a ton of Errors like hitting

a random thrall that you didn't intend

to hit or skating into a big hole in the

floor that was partly the play on the

day one contest mode raid but now that

it's over I feel like it would be much

easier to just go through the lantern

run normally just getting your health

and staying together and killing things

at the end of the lantern run you'll

preserve the Chalice of light in another

little Podium thingy and then do what

you did in the opening encounter AKA

take the enlightened buff and dunk it

into a big final plate in the floor in

order to form a bridge while doing this

you'll be swarmed by Hive including a

few Unstoppable Champions so make sure

someone on your team has something to

handle that a radiant well is

recommended if your team is having

trouble staying alive at the final plate

or now that contest RAID Mode is over a

banner of War strand Titan would do

great for the whole team after dunking

the enlightened buff into the plate

multiple times the bridge will form at

which point you can cross and finish the

lantern encounter

next up is the bridge encounter and like

the lantern encounter no boss but

slightly different mechanics than D1

your goal is still both to form and then

get everybody across to the other side

of the bridge there are three plates in

the floor on each side of the bridge the

middle plate forms and keeps the bridge

up and unlike in D1 where all you had to

do was stand on that middle plate you

now have to do what we've been doing

past the Chalice of light around in

order to become enlightened and then

dunk the enlightened buff into that

middle plate on the floor until the

bridge forms when the bridge has been

built for the first time one Guardian

has to stand on the middle plate in

order to keep it Formed leave that

middle plate and the bridge will

temporarily go away until someone goes

back to stand on it again but to repeat

you only need to dunk enlightened and

build the bridge one time you can't just

cross the bridge though there are only

two ways to do it you either have to be

carrying a hive sword like in D1 or you

can be carrying the Chalice of light if

you don't have either and you attempt to

cross the bridge you will die the two

side plates are the death totem plates

if if any Guardian is standing on the

middle plate to keep the bridge up you

also have to have one Guardian on each

of the death totem plates on either side

or else they will glow red and blow up

and the entire team will wipe on the

other side of the bridge there are three

identical plates just like in D1 however

there's also a little Podium like in the

lantern encounter which will let you

preserve the Chalice of light more on

that in a minute after killing barrier

Champions a sword-wielding hive Knight

Will emerge anybody can damage and kill

these sword-wielding Hive Knight but you

can only pick up that sword if you're

enlightened AKA someone has to take the

Chalice away from you after you hit full

charge if you cross the bridge with a

sword and get to the other side you'll

have to kill a special gatekeeper Knight

and then you'll have to dunk your sword

into a small Podium on the floor your

team will eventually need to dunk five

swords on the far end of the bridge to

complete this encounter before taking

down five more gatekeeper Knights at the

very end here's what I recommend you do

first pass around the Chalice of light

on the starting side of the bridge and

dunk enlightened into the middle plate

until the bridge is while protecting the

death totems of course when the bridge

is formed now past the Chalice of light

again around the entire team until five

members of your team are enlightened one

of those five holding a sword and the

final member of your team just picks up

the Chalice at that point have both the

Chalice holder and the sword wielding

Guardian cross the bridge together at

the far end the sword wielder takes on

the gatekeeper Knight while the Chalice

holder preserves the Chalice into the

tiny Podium if nobody else dies you now

don't have to worry about the Chalice

for the remainder of the bridge

encounter if you don't want to preserve

the Chalice early you don't have to but

again I highly recommend it otherwise

you're gonna have to play a lot of hot

potato during the bridge encounter now

you should have two players across the

bridge and you can begin sending the

other four Guardians over one at a time

they should already be enlightened from

before they just need to kill a

sword-wielding knight pick up the sword

and cross the bridge again each time a

new player crosses the bridge you'll

need to kill a new gatekeeper Knight and

dunk your sword into the ground where

the game tells you to once you you have

three Guardians across the bridge they

can now take over on plate Duty AKA

standing on the middle plate to keep the

bridge up and having one Guardian for

each death totem plate when you've done

this the three Guardians back on the

original side of the bridge can get off

their plates and focus on staying alive

continue having the Guardians cross one

at a time and if you're doing the dunk

the Chalice early Strat that I've

recommended have your final Guardian who

crosses the bridge be maybe a more

experienced player as they'll have to

stay behind and kill their sword

wielding Knight alone without dying when

everybody is across the bridge and five

swords have been dunked in the floor

five more gatekeeper Knights will emerge

as well as barrier Champs and ogres

remember after everyone's across the

bridge you can get off all the plates as

you only need to protect the death totem

place if someone is standing on the

middle plate to hold the bridge up which

you no longer need to do kill all the

knights with everyone across the bridge

and encounter over next up we have

another little mini encounter not quite

the third encounter yet let's just call

it the hallway there are green shield

doors when which Your Guardian can't go

through unless you are enlightened pass

the Chalice around and have your

enlightened Guardian go through the

shield door to kill a Shrieker killing a

Shrieker will power down the green

shield door so everybody can now get

through it's a very ad dense hallway but

you should honestly be fine like in D1

by the way there is a hidden chest at

the very end of this hallway before

moving on to the next encounter that you

have to get to early before a closing

door seals it off forever if just one

Guardian makes it through everybody can

get the chest but if nobody gets it you

miss out on the chest I don't have

footage of the chest though we weren't

fast enough on contest mode because we

were trying to not die but it is there

Trust Me Maybe send a thunder crash

Titan to go get it when the shield doors

power down

now you're officially at the third major

encounter ear Ute who will be your first

boss fight in the raid your goal is to

damage or Ute enough to stop her from

finishing her death song which will wipe

your entire team if you don't interrupt

around the area there are green shield

doors like in the hallway encounter

again you can only pass through these if

you're enlightened but don't do that

willy-nilly there are seven shielded

rooms you can go into but some of them

are debates that will f up your run more

on that in a minute for the first part

of this encounter split your team into

two groups of three as you push into the

area one group go left the other go

right push up the stairs and slowly

fight your way into the main building

killing Hive along the way killing both

shriekers will power down the shield

doors and let you into the room where

the Chalice of light is waiting for you

pass around the Chalice like before in

order to get the enlightened buff with

the enlightened buff you're looking to

go through those Shield doors I

mentioned earlier in order to find Hive

Wizards which need to be killed in order

to kick off DPS phase but not every

Shield room contains a wizard though

some rooms contain shriekers those are

the debate rooms that you want to avoid

there's nothing wrong with killing a

Shrieker it won't kill your team or

anything but after you pass through the

shield door you lose your enlightened

buff meaning if you go into a room

looking for a wizard and find a Shrieker

you can't turn around and leave the room

without killing the Shrieker and on top

of that that means you have to go get

enlightened again in order to enter

another Shield room to try and find the

wizard that you're looking for as you

can imagine that wastes a ton of time

and after a certain amount of time ear

Ute will begin singing no matter what so

you only want to go into a room if you

know for sure there's a wizard in there

not a Shrieker so how do you tell well

if you get really close to a shield room

and look on your radar shriekers appear

as large red circles and hopefully you

can see this a tiny black triangle

either pointing up or down that'll

depend on their elevation relevant to

you triangle pointing up means a

Shrieker is a above you triangle below

meaning a Shrieker is below you if there

is no big red circle on your radar that

means a wizard is in that room you can

also use wish Ender to peep into the

rooms and use wall hack Vision but

scouting the radar works just as well on

your first damage phase you are looking

to find three Wizards out of a possible

seven rooms on your second damage phase

you're looking for four wizards and if

you need a third damage phase you'll

need to find and kill five wizards our

team used the following call out system

for identifying which room is which room

b stands for balcony by the way we

assigned one Guardian on the team to

literally run around and check every

Shield room during combat while people

are passing the Chalice to find exactly

which rooms had a wizard and then

assigned specific players on the team to

go to a specific room and kill a

specific wizard AKA hey Fallout go kill

the wizard in room L2 hey ano go kill

the wizard in room R1 Etc I recommend

doing this but if you prefer a more

chaotic approach and want each wizard

killer to just find their own wizard by

all means do that keep in mind though as

soon as one person kills a wizard ear

Ute will begin singing in the DPS phase

officially begins so I recommend having

the wizard killing Guardians chip down

their health until they're finishable

and then waiting for the final wizard

killer to give a three to one countdown

for everybody to finish at once that way

all wizards are finished at the exact

same time and everybody can meet up for

damage phase at the exact same time

rather than some people showing up early

and some people showing up late because

they killed their wizard late again you

can only damage or Ute when all the

Wizards you need to kill have been

killed by the way as holding the Chalice

too long will eventually kill you when

enough Guardians have been sent out to

Vanquish the Wizards whoever is holding

the Chalice at the moment should drop

down near where you entered the outside

portion of this encounter and preserve

the Chalice by dunking it into the

little podium in the floor if for

whatever reason there was too much

chalice passing and extra Guardians have

the enlightened buff but didn't use it

to go kill a wizard good news you can

actually use the enlightened buff during

the DPS phase I don't have footage of

this because I was a wizard killer but

you can literally walk up to air Ute and

dunk the enlightened buff directly into

her four damage and it's actually pretty

respectable damage for damage phase I

recommend a well of Radiance of course

and if you have won a Divinity and

linear Fusion rifles on contest mode we

literally two-faced ear youth both times

doing this so it should be even easier

now that contest mode is over but

honestly whatever damage method your

team is most comfortable with rockets

machine guns it ain't really that deep I

think it's a good idea before starting

the ear Ute encounter that you pick one

Guardian to scout out the wizard rooms

and also to pick dedicated wizard

Killers as well if you don't one phaser

just rinse and repeat go back and get

the Chalice from where one of your

Guardians preserved it before the damage

phase ideally the first wizard killer

should be the one to go get it while

your wizard Scout runs around and again

looks for which rooms now have wizards

past the Chalice around to be

enlightened and again you're now looking

for four wizards instead of three and

then after that damage phase if you need

another five instead of four do this

until air Ute is finally dead

now at long last the final encounter

crota your goal of course is to kill

crota which works a lot differently than

how it did in D1 let's take it from the

top stand near the big glowing crystal

to begin the encounter and summon crota

you'll want to stay away from him

because he'll really F you up both up

close and at range and you can't damage

him right away I have a unique strategy

where One Titan literally distracts

crota the entire boss fight if you're

interested in that I'll link the YouTube

video down in the description but that

was really more of a thing for contest

mode day one where Staying Alive was

really important and very hard I don't

think you'll need to use that strategy

here but you can if you really want to a

chalice of light will appear down in the

area we called the pit as you'd expect

you'll need to pick that up and pass it

around to get the enlightened buff like

before however during the crota fight

you can only exchange the enlightened

buff in certain areas you'll see a

bluish white glowing Aura both parties

need to stand in that aura in order to

exchange the Chalice the location of

that aura will move around it can spawn

on in one of I think five or six places

total just look around the map that by

the way will probably be what causes

ninety percent of your team wipes when

doing this raid for the first time

there's a lot going on and it's easy to

forget that you're holding the Chalice

so really be on point with your verbal

communication the large towers on either

side of the oversold will occasionally

Spawn Two Boomer Knights each who will

rain down strong arc on anyone nearby

killing all four Boomer Knights will

spawn two ogres and one Hive sword

Knight down in the pit kill the sword

bearing Knight in order to grab his

sword which again you can only do if you

are enlightened and leaving that sword

on the ground for too long it will

despawn so be sure to pick it up

relatively soon in D1 crota was

de-shielded and put in a kneeling

position by weapon damage and then

damageable via the hive sword in D2 it's

reversed crota will only be de-shielded

by whacking him with a hive sword enough

and only takes health bar damage via

your weapons you can send sword wielding

Guardians to whack down crota's Shield

one at time but honestly we found it

much more straightforward to send three

sword Guardians all at the same time

that way everybody the whole team rolls

up on crota all at once and you can

begin damage phase with everyone already

surrounding him but use whichever method

feels better to you like the ear Ute

encounter you should be sure to preserve

the Chalice in the same location down in

the tiny Podium near where you entered

the throne room also like ear Ute if any

Guardians wind up with the enlightened

buff and have nothing to do with it you

can simply dunk it directly into crota

during the damage phase which deals good

damage as mentioned on contest mode we

needed three Hive swords and a tractor

Cannon to the shield crota in one go on

normal mode it may take less I'll try to

update the pinned comment if that turns

out to be the case The Hive sword has

unlimited use to kill adds until you

either drop it which again will make it

despawn or until you start whacking

crota which has a limited timer before

the sword goes away meaning you can't

just keep playing hit and run with crota

to try and Shield him when you begin to

de-shield him you gotta commit because

you will shortly lose that sword the

sword combo we found that worked for us

was light heavy super heavy AKA a light

swing a heavy swing a super swing which

you do by hitting your pop super button

and then another heavy swing when crota

is de-shielded now it's time to hit him

hard radiant well is a big recommend for

easy damage dealing and staying alive as

crota will fight back be warned crota

can break your radiant well so having at

least two radiant warlocks will probably

be a good idea for both staying alive

and extra damage output just have your

extra warlock on standby to pop the back

up well if the first one breaks or runs

out One tractor Cannon is borderline

mandatory as you'll make crota take an

extra 30 incoming damage and everyone

should bring their best Close Quarter

weapons lament is a big recommendation

but Falling Guillotine or any other

well-rolled sword should be fine

likewise for the legend of aqueous when

damaging crota keep your eyes peeled on

your HUD for the oversoul timer

eventually one Guardian who you should

pick in advance will need to break away

from damaging crota in order to shoot

the oversoul aka the gigantic glowing

green thing in the sky the oversoul is

incredibly easy to break if you're close

you can do it with a fusion rifle if

you're far away just use any weapon with

good range to plank down and break the

oversoul keep in mind though breaking

the oversoul will end your damage phase

and reshield crota so you don't want to

do it too early try to wait until the

timer gets really low maybe around six

or five seconds less if you want to be

daring before someone breaks off from

the group and damages the oversoul after

that rinse and repeat go re-acquire the

Chalice from where you preserved it kill

Boomers to summon the sword Knight and

start hoarding swords eventually when

you hit the Gap in crota's health bar

you will Now activate his final stand

mode now it's do or die right after

hitting Final Stand try to back up a bit

because after a second or two crota Will

Blast everyone nearby with area damage

just wait for the blast to happen and

when it is done run back in and start

hitting him again the oversold timer

will be there but you have more time

than you think you're kind of getting

debated by Bungie when you break the

oversold during final Sandy will

slightly extend the timer giving you the

extra few seconds you need to put down

crota really make sure you're waiting

for the last second to extend the

oversold timer before committing to

putting down crota for good final

recommendation other than radiant well

by the way not only does the Titan

pyrogale exotic do good damage but the

fire tornadoes also stun crota which is

awesome for damage dealing but make sure

you communicate on chalice passing and

pick your sword wielders in advance and

you should be just fine I know there's a

red border chest puzzle in the raid

because I heard about it but I haven't

done it yet when I figure out how to do

it I will let you know how that works

down in the pinned comment likewise for

any other hidden chests or loot drops in

the raid if you have any other tips let

me know down in the comment section

thank you very much for watching and

I'll see you on stream
