Each encounter builds upon the tether mechanic, adding a buff called enlightened, and eventually adding motes and deposit locations. The ‘tether’ mechanic is cumbersome at times (especially for newer players), but with enough practice, it can be mastered. The mechanics of the raid are somewhat complex and require teamwork. This raid has 4 encounters and a jumping puzzle between the 3rd and 4th encounters. Starting on the Moon, the raid takes you into the Black Garden, a place of beauty and life, guarded by the Sol Divisitive, a fanatical group of Vex that worships the darkness. Garden of Salvation was released with Shadowkeep in November of 2019. This raid also introduced Spoils of Conquest and an end chest where you can use them to buy specific weapons or armor for different rolls. The Loot of the raid is well sought after, as the weapons can roll with specific perks that can only be found are on DSC weapons, such as Reconstruction and Redirection, which are still sought after to this day (I still have yet to get a Vorpal Reconstruction Succession Sniper and I have done this raid over 50 times). This raid is unique in that we are going to the Deep Stone Crypt (a place mentioned in the lore as the birthplace of the Exos), and the 3rd encounter is very hectic but a fun type of hectic. The visuals are good, as the Deep Stone Crypt’s aesthetic is clean and futuristic, and the jumping puzzle between the second and third encounter is jaw-dropping. The Mechanics are fairly straightforward: With only 3 people having a job (Scanner, Suppressor, Operator) at a time, the rest of the team can be on ad-clear duty. With 4 Encounters, this raid is a nice introduction to raiding, as the mechanics are simple, and the loot is good regardless of if you are a PvE or PvP player. “The chains of legacy must be broken.” Mechanicsĭeep Stone Crypt (DSC) came out in November 2020 and is located on the Ice Moon of Europa. 💠 Check out our detailed VoG Challenges guide for more. Fatebringer is a very sought-after weapon as it can have explosive payload and firefly, which is a GOD tier perk combo. One of the rows is always the “curated” or D1 roll, while the other is random. On Master mode, each weapon has enhanced stats, as well as having 2 perks in each column. The loot from Vault of Glass is good, especially the adept weapons from Master mode. However in terms of encounter location, 3 of the 5 encounters take place in Templar’s Well and the final 2 encounters take place in the Glass Throne, which means there is not a lot of scenery changes between encounters. This raid is memorable, as it was a lot of people’s first raids in Destiny 1 (It was my first raid too).

It feels as though you are descending deeper beneath Venus with each encounter, and once you see the Glass Throne for the first time it takes your breath away. Especially the final boss area, The Glass Throne. The Vault of Glass’ visuals are stunning. The majority of the raid is spent killing rank and file enemies or mini-bosses such as Wyverns. The mechanics of VoG are straightforward, and there is only one single relic in the entire raid called the Aegis, which is used for cleansing debuffs and removing bosses’ shields. The raid has 5 encounters and a maze to navigate between encounters 3 and 4. The reprised raid brought back some fan-favorite weapons, as well as some new changes to the raid itself since the Destiny 2 sandbox is fundamentally different than it was in Destiny 1. It was originally released in September 2016 while its reprised version in Destiny 2 was released in May of 2021. Vault of Glass (VoG) is the first reprised raid from Destiny 1.
