[b][u]STEPS TO THE RAID![/u][/b]
Form the bridge, go across and fall into the starting hole!
[b]STAGE 1[/b]
Chest:
[spoiler] After you enter the abyss, walk down the hall towards the first lamp. Before that, turn left down a dark corridor with a small white/orange light above a doorway. The door will open when you go near it if the chest is in there. My friend got the new exotic sniper.
EDIT: it's a random spawn in the doors.
EDIT 2: This chest seems to be similar to upper gorgon chest. It contains class items, upgrade materials, and a chance at exotics. Comment if this is wrong or other things come from this chest
*might contain raid set gear*[/spoiler]
You will be in a dark tunnel surrounded by thralls and cursed thralls.
Weight of darkness will stack up to 10 and you can't run.
Move as a tight group from pillar of light to pillar of light.
Avoid the holes in the ground!
Stay at each pillar till around x6 so you can sprint again but not long enough for it to turn red and explode!
Once you get to the end section there will be a circle on the ground that forms a bridge.
Defend the bridge from 2 ogres and knights.
When the bridge forms run across and there will be an ogre on the other side.
Run past or kill him and continue down the hallway.
[b]STAGE 2[/b]
At the start there will be a similar circle and 2 temples.
atleast 1 person needs to stand on each temple and one to form the bridge.
A SwordBearer will spawn and drop a sword.
1 Person use the sword and cross the bridge.
YOU MUST KILL THE GATEKEEPER! if it kills you, its a good idea to wipe.
Repeat that process till 3 people are over to the other side!
Then, on the other side 1 person must stand on each temple and 1 on the circle to hold the bridge up.
The people stuck at the beginning can leave the temples and kill a swordbarer and cross the bridge one by one.
Each person that comes over has their own gatekeeper that they MUST kill.
Once everyone is over, clear out the enemies and progress.
Chest:
[spoiler] The chest is located after the bridge encounter with the gatekeepers, right after the gauntlet with the shriekers and before the drop to the summoning crystal.
There is a door on the opposite side of the hole where you drop down. You have to be fast in order to make it in before the door closes, but once you're in you can open it from the inside. I used Bladedancer and Vex Mythoclast with Lightweight and ran up to each of the invisible walls while my teammates killed the adds and Shriekers, double-jumped over the hole and slid into the door just as it was closing.

(Hallway with thralls and shriekers)
Just move down the hallway killing the shriekers and setting up titan bubbles to defend against the bombs that come out afterwards)
[b]STAGE 3[/b]
(This stage requires trial and error)
There will be two witches on opposite sides in the room above you where you come in.
You can draw them out and kill them as a team.
After the witches are dead there will be shriekers that you cannot damage until the witches are dead.
Kill the shriekers and then proceed to the main Witch.
YOU MUST KILL THE WITCH BEFORE The Liturgy ends!
[b]STAGE 4[/b]
Start the stage by activating the crystal.
Send one person out to grab the Chalice.
As a team go back to the underground doorway and defend the entrance.
Focus fire on the SwordBearer until the sword drops.
Send one person out to grab the sword and head towards Crota.
As he is heading to crota, the team needs to do enough damage to him to take down his shield and bring him to his knee!
The sword guy can get 2-3 swings on him while he is down if timed right. Run back to the underground passage.
Rinse and repeat.
IF THE CHALICE IS DROPPED OGRES WILL SPAWN. LATER NEAR HIS DEATH OGRES MAY SPAWN, RUN BACK TO THE END OF THE UNDERGROUND HALLWAY AND SNIPE THEM WITH ICE BREAKERS!
IF ONE PERSON DIES YOU WILL DIE IF YOU DONT KILL THE BIG GREEN EYE BEHIND HIM QUICKLY!
IF THE SWORD GUY IS LVL 31 IT GIVES A 50% DAMAGE INCREASE!

4 RepliesSo i went on my second character (HUNTER) and tried looking for the 1st chest alone. And it wasn't in the location by the first lantern. First two doors on the left were empty. Then i came to the 4th door fallowing the left wall and CHEST! does it jump around? Anybody else experience this?

Edited by Miraak: 12/11/2014 5:16:04 PMYou only have to get three people across on the second part. The other people on the original side should wipe, and the team on the far side needs to kill the ogres and wizards very quickly! If the wizard is still alive, it can cause a wipe from annihilator totem. Did this four times yesterday, it definitely works

Thank you very much mate.

It's not required to kill the Gatekeepers, just the ogres

5 RepliesIt is extremely sad how this already has a full guide after 2 days

There are other doors with lights on above them in the first section. I opened a 2nd chest but didn't get anything so guess you can only get loot out of one chest on the first part. So just saying there are at least two doors with a light on and a chest inside on part one.

1 ReplyI have a theory, in the beginning part a hidden chest might spawn after if u never light a lantern meaning getting x10 weight and walking along the edges until u get to the circle and activate the bridge.
