Taking place during an [[Season of the Undying|invasion]] of the [[Sol Divisive]] [[Vex]], the Guardians are tasked by [[Eris Morn]] to track a signal from the [[Unknown Artifact]], emitting from deep within the [[Black Garden]]. The raid features Guardians as they trace the signal to its [[Darkness#Veiled Figures|source]] at the center of the garden, all while battle an onslaught of Vex climaxing with the [[Consecrated Mind, Sol Inherent|Sol]] [[Sanctified Mind, Sol Inherent|Inherent]] Minds. | |||

Players will enter an arena containing an [[Ultra]] [[Harpy]] named the [[Consecrated Mind, Sol Inherent]]. However the boss will not initially attack; to start the encounter, look for a [[Vex]] box floating in the air. The box can spawn randomly in several different spots around the arena upon entering. If you fire at the box, it will project a tether to the nearest player. The tether can chain to multiple Guardians near each other. The goal is to lead the tether chain to a barrier at the back right-hand corner of the arena to get it to open. Once this is done, the Consecrated Mind will become active. | Players will enter an arena containing an [[Ultra]] [[Harpy]] named the [[Consecrated Mind, Sol Inherent]].

Players must split into two teams of three: one stays behind in the same area as the boss, and the other moves into the next area that was beyond the barrier. The first team must kill multiple waves of enemies while the boss roams around, occasionally firing at players. The Consecrated Mind is completely invulnerable to all damage during this phase.

After some time the boss will spit a Voltaic Charge onto the ground, and one of the three team members must run over to it. The charge will resemble a Vex [[Conflux]]. Once they have done this, they will be afflicted with the ‘Voltaic Overflow’ debuff, lasting for two minutes and thirty seconds. If one player collects multiple Overflow debuffs, they will die, so it must be split evenly between the three team members. If nobody interacts with a Voltaic Charge to acquire the debuff in time, it will explode, wiping out the entire fireteam. | ||
The other team, the one that proceeded into the next room, must make their way forward through several waves of enemies, including [[Champion]]s. Players must kill every single enemy in their way to progress. At the end of the room, there will be another barrier, and a unique [[Hydra]] called an [[Angelic]] will spawn. Destroy it to spawn another tether box, and guide the tether to the barrier to unlock it. Once this is done, the Consecrated Mind will teleport into the room where the team that killed the Angelic was in, and the two teams must swap roles; one stays behind to collect the Voltaic Overflow, the other moves forward. This process is repeated several times with alternating roles before all six players finally reunite at the penultimate room for this encounter. | The other team, the one that proceeded into the next room, must make their way forward through several waves of enemies, including [[Champion]]s.

The fireteam will arrive into a large diamond-shaped map, with a relay at each corner of the map. These relays contain Vex confluxes in the center, as well as [[Warp Gate]]s on either side.

If enough sacrifices are made, the entire fireteam will be wiped.

For the final boss of the raid, players will be split into three teams of two. Two teams will collect motes and one team will stay behind.

Once they | Once they jumped in either portals, players must kill [[Goblin]]s, [[Harpy]]s and a [[Minotaur]] in order to get 15 Voltaic Motes (Tainted Voltaic Motes in the Red zone) in total, with a maximum of 10 per player. Once they have collected all Motes, they must call out to the players left behind who will shoot the same area of the [[Sanctified Mind, Sol Inherent]] that was used to drop the portal, so right knee for Blue, left shoulder for Red. This will teleport the two collectors back at the start point of the encounter, and they will need to bank their Motes at the appropriate conflux (blue on the left, red on the right). | ||

When the second team banks for the second time, both banks should be full and the Sanctified Mind will make a big cross appear and spawn an [[Angelic]] which must be killed. Once the [[Angelic]] is dead, three or four players (four recommended for comfort) will need to start a tether chain of the same color as the boss's cross, starting at one of the banks and linking to the cross.

The Sanctified Mind's core will then be vulnerable, and the damage phase will be started. It is advised to have at least one player of each class : a [[Titan (class)|Titan]] to use their [[Ward of Dawn]] for protection, a [[Warlock]] with the [[Well of Radiance]] for healing and damage buff, and a [[Hunter]] who will use bottom tree [[Golden Gun]] combined with the [[Celestial Nighthawk]] for immense damage. Precision damage weapons, like Linear Fusion Rifles, are preferred for damaging the boss, due to the great distance between the boss and the fireteam, and the prominent critical weak point. | ||
Once the damage phase is over, players will need to repeat the whole process again. It is worth noting that [[Cyclops]] will spawn on pillars and can one-shot a player with their powerful [[Void]] attack, so it is highly suggested to kill them as soon as they are spotted. | Once the damage phase is over, players will need to repeat the whole process again.

== | Simpler version: final boss time! 2 teams: portal and building. Portal team kills enemies and gets motes? How? On the sanctified mind, there are 2 portals, a leg portal(voltaic motes) and an arm portal(tained voltaic motes) how do you open the portals? SHOOT THEM OF COURSE! Got enough motes? Cool, you got the enlightened buff and now cna kill the vex that are shielded...they spawn pretty rarely(aka, after probably like 15 secs after somebody goes into a portal) | ||
Deposit motes and f you got enough then you have yourself a damage phase! Builder team: they honestly just kill adds. Damage: the sanctified mind opens up a conflux which is either orange or blue. Kill an angelic and get the corresponding conflux relay to it( like...tether your team to it) and bam! Damage time! The boss opens up it's little middle core(the critical spot and the hitbox is kinda weird so you might get precision hits or not). Killed the boss? Yay! Time to get your loot and leave. Didn't? Redo the entire process I explained. | |||

==New mechanics== | |||
*One of the main mechanics in the raid involves the tether boxes, which project a tether to the nearest player when shot at. The tether can chain to multiple nearby players, from one to the next. The usual objective with this mechanic is to have the tether connect to multiple players in order to guide it to a certain object it needs to connect to. | |||
==The Divinity sidequest== | |||
Ah, yes. One of the most mindbreaking raid quests. Added to the fact that this raid is difficult for most players, doing the Divinity puzzle makes it a nightmare, taking up to 3 to 4 hours if you are lucky to learn quickly the way puzzles are done. | |||
After entering the portal on the Moon, players will have to jump off the platform and look at a secret room thats under said platform. This room will have a receiver for the Empowered Decryption Core. This is an item you get when you initiate the Divinity quest, which starts by picking up an item dropped by an Ultra Minotaur that spawns on the same portal you use to enter the Black Garden, difference being you reach that portal during Moon Patrol and you cant enter the portal. Where is this portal? Its on the Lunar Battlegrounds, going way back to where you did the introduction mission to Shadowkeep. Remember where you first fought an [[Eye of the Swarm]]? Where you had to disable some totems? In the far left side of that section of the map, there´s a big cavern. Going inside leads you to the Black Garden portal, where the Minotaur you have to kill spawns. | |||
Anyway, with that in mind, lets get to the puzzles. | |||
*'''First puzzle''' | |||
The first puzzle is in the staircase before the first encounter. If you look to the sides when going up the stairs, you will see 2 little holes you have to enter. Being a fireteam of 6, you have to split into 3 players per side. On the left side, there will be a box. Shooting this box will open it, connecting you to it and your fellow guardians. The objective here is to connect this cube with your partners on your side, so the connection can reach the players on the other side and connect it to a vessel. Doing this successfully will prompt a text that reads "ACCEPTED: Singular bypass accepted." Then you shall proceed to do the first encounter as usual. | |||
*'''Second puzzle''' | |||
The second puzzle is after the first encounter is done. After you evade the Consecrated Mind, you should be looking for a cherry tree. Under that tree theres a hole you have to enter in order to access the second tether puzzle. | |||
