Quick Guide on how to do the second Imbaru Test for those interested:
First you’ll need to obtain the Gift of Strength Arcana; I [i]believe[/i] (I wasn’t paying super close attention) this is found within the Savathun’s Spire activity, just to the left of one of the portals that leads to the final Boss encounter, in the area in which you can plant a Banner, switch out cards and interact with a Ritual Circle.
Launch the Imbaru Engine activity and you will need to clear the Test of Cunning much the way you did last week by opening the proper chests. Upon opening the third set of chests and receiving the “You have conjured Cunning” message, you will need use the Gift of Strength Arcana to open a door located directly behind the first pair of chests you initially chose between, and then proceed forward to the Second Test.
Spoilers for the Second Test:
[spoiler]After traveling past a hallway of rotating spike traps you will find yourself in a room with several teardrop shaped tiles on the ground. Interact with the Ritual Circle to begin the Test of Strength.
Once the Test has been initiated, a number of Hive Knights and Cursed Thralls will spawn on the teardrop tiles, and a cloud of Insight will spawn on a platform above you. Interacting with the Insight cloud will reveal a set of footprints that lead to your starting target.
The puzzle requires you to kill targets one by one to fill a meter, with the point of the teardrop a target is standing on pointing to the next in the chain. Killing the correct target in the sequence will give you a message that “Your War March Continues” while killing an incorrect target will cause Shriekers to activate and all movs will aggro you, at which point you will be one-shot by anything that hits you, requiring you to restart from the beginning.
There is an additional wrinkle. When you kill a Knight, you simply move to the next target in the chain. However [b]after[/b] you kill a Cursed Thrall you must [u]skip[/u] the next target within the chain, instead opting for the target after it.
Once you have killed enough targets to fill the meter, you will receive rewards for completing the activity as well as complete the [b]May You Never Cease Triumph[/b] needed for the Haruspex Seasonal Title.[/spoiler]

Thank you so much! I just finished it
-
Thank you so much, I wouldn’t have guessed to skip the cursed thrall! Thanks!!
-
Now we've had cunning and war. Savathun and xivu. So the next one might be navigation. For oryx the navigator.

It took me entirely too long to figure out the test 2 puzzle 😂
-
Thanks so much for the help! I had no idea what to do for the second part so I’m very grateful!
-
The first made me feel sick. I can't complete it.
-
Am I the only one that gives absolutely zero -blam!- about these stupid -blam!- puzzles?
-
You actually don't need to the first test again
-
Don't need to do the first test again.

This is what happens when people who lack intelligence devise a "test of cunning". It's nothing more than trial and error. At first I thought "okay, this makes sense... follow the arrows", but then after that was abandoned it became just a game of memory. Cunning my -blam!-. This is a good example of why you don't dump "Rock Stars" and replace them with "teams that promote a fun working environment". I'm sure some of that team were just scared to tell the rest that it wasn't in any way logical or "cunning" for fear of hurting feelings and being fired as a wannabe "rock star". Weak. Weak. Incredibly weak.

Ngl, the thrall skip mechanic really threw me the -blam!- off, but once you figure it out it's big cakey cake. Cheers.

Ngl, this puzzle was extremely weak. There's no hints (that I've seen) that teach you this. The Glyph thing has a hint in the Altars of Summoning (the center circle has 3 glyphs that are different, which are the ones required for the Cunning test). Meanwhile, you're just expected to beat your head against the second puzzle until you solve it by accident. A good puzzle gives you the tools to figure it out and makes you go "Aha!" It should not make you go "how the heck was I supposed to know that?"

So, just as tedious and pointless as the first one then. Which you have to do again. Thanks for posting this, appreciate the heads up that it isn't worth bothering with. -
Thanks for the insight. I'll try it when I get off work.

Thank you very much. This was extremely helpful.
