Umbral Incursions "Defeat Powerful Foes" not progressing

Vanguard Umbral Incursions "defeat powerful foes using stasis" is not progressing. I've been at 36% for almost an hour now. Tried everything. Is it bugged?

  • I have run into the same problem with defeating powerful foes. I found a youtube that showed jumping over the wall back into the front of the moon strike keep and into the normal moon area. Unfortunately nothing would spawn there. However you can get into the lost sector there and make progress on Orange bar enemies there. A couple of problems though. The other players will progress the strike and pull you forward at the end. If the other players don't finish the strike, new players will spawn into the moon area with you. They will eventually come to the lost sector and "help" you. Not what you want. So... What I finally did was run the Nightfall on Hero level. I want from 42% to 100% in one go.

  • Alright so I'm not the only one I have been stuck at 87% way to long. I made my own post here if you want to keep an eye on it, nothing really there yet though. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/257613980?page=0&sort=0&showBanned=0&path=1

    • Do strikes if you havent because patrolling for yellow bars wasnt working for me. Nightfall might be best.

        Using Warlock character, having similar issues with this quest, I have tried killing statis every way possible and it not work, but somehow I do mange to get progression in small amounts time to time, but does not appear to be related to statis damage like it should. I have also only been able to get it to progress when doing a full strike, I have done solo on maps to test every type of statis damage with 0 progression. Every forum about this issue I have tried their tips, freeze then kill with shotgun, freeze then melee to kill, freeze with super and destroy with melee super move, etc... nothing is working. Similar issue happen with the quest from last week where progression stopped, but quitting game and relaunching fixed, I have done that with no change, this seems to be something else wrong. P.S. I have been at it for almost two days straight now to finish this, doing strikes non stop, with no luck totally preventing me from progressing. I'm one of those that likes to finish something before moving on to something else. Follow up: Nightfall, first couple of encounters are appearing to produce small progress, ran three times in a row and made small progress each time, just backout before going over the river of white stuff and repeat.

        • As far as I can tell, it's just VERY picky. I made the mistake of picking these up on my titan, and for some reason the titan's stasis melee attack doesn't count as "using stasis damage to kill powerful foes." Also, the super kills portion is extra annoying, because shattering the crystals the titan makes doesn't grant "super kills" (but punching with the melee in the super does). Anyway, things I've found that work on my titan to progress the "defeat powerful foes using stasis" are basically only getting shatter kills on powerful foes and using the punch in the super to uppercut them. Basically: try as many different sorts of stasis damage you can produce, and figure out which one is working most consistently for you. Then grit your teeth and faceroll it until you're done. (Also I'm of the opinion that the fact that it's SO picky is buggy...but we'll see I suppose)

        • Theres a lot of quests/bounties that are wrong or poorly worded. So lots of confusion. My advice is to try anything and every different kind of event/map/weapon to see which area will reward you. Like for example one patrol says "use your abilities" well all you have to do is melee every one. No ability needed. No grenades and melee doesnt need to be charged either.
