Story
In the aftermath of the attack on the Traveler, the Vanguard calls upon its closest allies. Guardians must master the righteous powers of the Awoken to stand against the encroaching Shadow Legion and prove themselves as Queensguard.
In this new three-player matchmade activity, bypass the Shadow Legion’s security by entering their outposts from the Ascendant Plane. Navigate the abyss and rescue your captive allies by completing rituals that open gateways to safety.
A distorted message beckons from somewhere within the Vex Network. Delve deep, follow the clues, and battle an unrelenting foe to discover the source of this mysterious signal. Ally with Mithrax to unravel the secrets of the Network and you may lay your hands upon an Exotic Glaive of legend.
Quick and nimble, this slayer of dragons will scatter your enemies. Should they manage to gather their wits and reach the hands that wield Vexcalibur, they will be left wanting—finding nothing but the edge of your blade and the armor of the Void embracing you and your allies.
Taking a page out of Neomuna’s neon playbook, this year’s event has really upped its flair game. Follow the fireworks to the Tower where Titans, Hunters, and Warlocks—each with a single victory—will try and make history by being the only class to take home the gold twice.
