[b]EDIT: The 5th Monitor Puzzle has been solved thanks to this insane community and Math Class. I got Outbreak Prime a few minutes after them and I'm telling you all, watch Datto's video once it comes out. Or better yet, try to solve the puzzle yourself! It's a ton of fun! GGs Guardians! The Spinfoil Hats can finally be taken off until later![/b]
So for those that don't know, there are hidden monitors throughout the Wrath of the Machine Raid.
It appears they unlock a series of laser grids in the final boss room. There's a small platform that you can jump on in the final boss room after finishing the raid that shows a hallway with 5 laser grids and a chest at the end. People have found a way to cheese through the laser grids, however it seems the chest can not be opened until all 5 monitors have been activated. The contents of said chest still seem to be unknown as it seems the 5th monitor is undiscovered. None of the linked videos are mine.
[b]1st Monitor Location: [/b]
The first monitor can be found in the room where you defeat Vosik. In the middle room on the left side, you can jump up through the fan in the ceiling. Continue along the pipe to a monitor at the end.

[b]2nd Monitor Location: [/b]
The second can be found in the jumping puzzle following Vosik. While staying high and sticking to the right side of the puzzle, you can find a walkway that leads to a room with large containers. This path also leads near one of the hidden exotic chests. Once in this room, a series of jumps must be made to get as high as possible where a hidden corridor is located on a pipe. At the end of this is a small room with the monitor.

[b]3rd Monitor Location: [/b]
The third monitor is located at the end of the Death Zamboni section. Be sure to jump off the back of the vehicle and let it fall off. Move toward the right side of the bridge while standing at the end, and then look back on the side of the bridge. You'll see a small broken panel that can be shot off. Move down to the now open entrance and you'll find a monitor.

[b]4th Monitor Location: [/b]
This monitor is found at the beginning of the laser grid hallway. After defeating the final boss, there will be a platform off the edge of the map to the left of the starting spawn. Jump onto this platform and follow the path to the monitor and the hallway.

I just wanted to make this post since I can't seem to find an actual conversation on these anywhere. I'm sincerely hoping that we can find the 5th monitor in the normal mode raid and that it's not a hard mode exclusive.
Let's find out what's in this chest!
EDIT: Yes. We are aware there are 2 monitors in the server farm. As of right now, neither monitor can be activated. Didn't put them in the original post because they're too obvious.
[b]HUGE EDIT: THE 5TH MONITOR HAS BEEN FOUND![/b] It's inside the giant diamond just after the server farm! My group also just confirmed this location. We could all see it! Now we all have to figure out how to open this damn diamond!

Before you jump down to the final boss room there is a pattern on the ground that you can see. Only 6 platforms looked different. My fireteam each stepped on one. A sound was made. We stepped on the areas that light up btw! There are more in the same room that don't light up. Maybe there is more than one part to unlocking the area in which the fifth monitor is in. Goodluck!
-
That location makes sense if it's boss challenge related. The siege engine is the only boss that can really have a different approach. Is it possible to complete that part without letting the fallen retake the siege engine (ala not letting the Templar teleport)? Perhaps that opens it.
-
Bump this
-
Has anyone killed Randal quick and run to the diamond to see if it's on a timer, like the Crota chest?
-
Thats shit is awesome! I bet the light puzzle at the end right before the drop down to the boss has something to do with it. Activate it and going back to the giant cube with the fifth monitor? When you drop down to the boss there is a small pattern on the ground showing 9 tiles. The middle one is different from the others (the drop down hole in the Light Puzzle above?) and two of the other eight are also different (maybe those two have to be lit up in the Light Puzzle?). The pattern is : / \ / \ /A\ / \ /X\V/ \ \ / \X/ \ / \ /A\ / \V/ I hope you'll understand it. The AV's are thos that should be lit up. The XX is the middle "hole". We'll try it out today!

Does the new Bungie site hold the key? https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/213778211/0/0

Edited by Kilodactyle: 9/27/2016 2:49:02 AMALL 8 TILES CAN BE ACTIVATED IF PLAYERS STAND ON THE EDGES AND PULL OUT GHOSTS WHICH CAN BE DONE WITH 4 PEOPLE. (Edit-in the disco room) idk if this is important but it is a new development
-
https://www.bungie.net/en/net/sim Could this be the correct order for the monitors?
-
Also, I can see the static people are talking about for the 5th one, but can't really make out any edge on a monitor...
-
Anyone giving checkpoints out on Xbox?
-
Make Randell your ally then get him to open it lol
-
Edited by soulslayer: 9/27/2016 6:13:13 AMAnyone tried standing on these 6 in the disco room? http://imgur.com/a/WBwuP
-
Does it stay open if you leave the lights off in the server room?
-
I think the 5th might be from the vasik fight. Like maybe you disable the monitors instead of shooting them.
-
Maybe it is time locked, but not to just hard mode. Maybe its just time locked for the first week of the raid so no one was able to get it in the first week and potentially get the exotic pulse rifle fast. They did the same thing with crux in crotas end HM. But we'll find out on reset i guess
-
Good post. I hope the thread blows up
-
Edited by CatMan: 9/27/2016 2:55:13 AMLmao lbdas( laugh but dead ass serious) I saw the fifth one and thought it was nothing days ago. Didn't say anything. I need to start saying more when I find stuff because... Yeah lol. Edit: Maybe it is nothing, so I was right to not say anything?
-
https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/213778950/0/0 Is this perhaps relevant?
-
-
Turns out the fifth monitor is hidden in the never discovered 7th VOG chest.
-
Bump 4 later

Edited by jamez_70: 9/27/2016 12:32:28 AMI posted a possible idea that my fire team came up with today and hopefully we can figure this out! My post: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/213783247/0/0 Keep up the good work guardians! And please bump so our ideas spread and we solve this mystery faster!
-
New arg updated. Linked? https://www.bungie.net/en/net/sim
-
Its gonna be another 'Basketball Court of Oryx' scenario. The community will find something in the Raid, we'll go crazy trying to figure it out, then Bungie will come out and just outright say what it does.
-
Seems a lot of people are far too happy to shit on anyone actually trying to find this last monitor. Ironically, those people are likely also going to be happy to open that chest every time they do the raid when those of us who don't mind overthinking it have figured it out...
-
What about the doors on either the left or right of the diamond, can you get one of them to open that may have a path into the diamond?
