This encounter is the easiest encounter due to the lack of a [[Darkness Zone]], though the respawn timer is extremely long, so be sure to revive your teammates quickly. This encounter introduces the players to the central mechanic throughout the dungeon: '''Light Motes''' and '''Dark Motes'''. Players will begin to see a white pillar and a black pillar. These pillars are prominent throughout the dungeon. | This encounter is the easiest encounter due to the lack of a [[Darkness Zone]], though the respawn timer is extremely long, so be sure to revive your teammates quickly.

In order to get the different types of motes, players must kill a [[Taken Knight]] called [[Knight Echo]] within a specific area. Killing the Knight Echo while standing in the light will cause them to drop '''Light Motes'''. Killing the Knight Echo while standing in the shadow will cause them to drop '''Dark Motes'''.

Killing the Knight Echo while standing in the light will cause them to drop '''Light Motes'''. Killing the Knight Echo while standing in the shadow will cause them to drop '''Dark Motes'''. Collecting a different type of mote will cause the opposing mote to be replaced with the ones you just picked up. After collecting exactly 5 motes of a specific type, the camera will switch to a third person perspective and have the player carry a massive mote in their hands, losing the ability to use their weapons in the process. The players should take the specific mote they possess to their matching pillar (Light motes to the white pillar and Dark motes to the black pillar) and then activate their "shoot" button to trigger a blast that will disperse the pillar. Once both pillars are dispersed, the door will open, revealing another set of pillars and another locked door, where players must repeat the process of positioning themselves in the light or the shadow to kill the Knight Echoes, pick up their motes, and disperse the pillars. | ||
After disposing of the two pairs of pillars in the tunnels, the players should then find themselves an exit, as well as their temporary nemesis throughout the dungeon, the [[Kell Echo]]. After pursuing the spectral visage of the Fallen Kell through the shattered ruins of the realm's tunnels, the Echo will vanish, leaving players on a half-spherical platform with two pairs of pillars and a Taken probe in the center. Here, the Phalanx Echo encounter begins once the probe is approached. | After disposing of the two pairs of pillars in the tunnels, the players should then find themselves an exit, as well as their temporary nemesis throughout the dungeon, the [[Kell Echo]].

After approaching the probe, the Phalanx Echo will spawn along with its reinforcements: two squads of [[Taken Psion]]s and a pair of Knight Echoes. Like other [[Taken Phalanx]]es, the Phalanx Echo will lay into its opponents with its Taken Slug Rifle while approaching them for a powerful blast from its shield (unlike other boss Taken Phalanxes, however, it doesn't have the ability to cast the tether orb). Another thing to note is the immunity shield protecting it; players must dispose of it in order to get to a damage phase on the unit itself. | After approaching the probe, the Phalanx Echo will spawn along with its reinforcements: two squads of [[Taken Psion]]s and a pair of Knight Echoes.

Players should eliminate any troublesome Taken Psions, evade the Phalanx Echo, and position themselves in the light or the shadow, and kill the Knight Echoes and secure their Motes. Keep in mind that the positions of the shadow and the light will change after a pillar is dispersed. Once all 2 pairs of pillars are dispersed, players should be free to damage the Phalanx Echo itself for fifty seconds. During this, the Echo will spawn a pair of [[Ravenous Taken Goblin]]s to protect it during this phase, so they should be eliminated quickly when given the chance. After the fifty seconds are over, the Phalanx Echo's shield will return. Repeat the earlier process as many times as needed until the Echo dies. | ||

After meeting up in the center the players will then "sink" into the next encounter, where they will be dropped into the Wasteland. | ||

After approaching the probe, the encounter should begin, revealing a pop-up text saying "The Realm responds to your Actions", spawning a pillar on each side of the room, two squads of [[Taken Acolyte]]s, at least two [[Ravenous Taken Hobgoblin]]s, and two Knight Echoes.

The center of the room will glow once a pillar has been dispersed. After this, players are recommended to kill all units in the room and gather within the circle, where they will be lifted into the air and the cube in the middle of the structure should rotate them towards the direction of the dispersed pillar. Players must search for the probe and pursue it again. | ||

After the | After pursuing the probe at least 6 times, the Guardians will find themselves in the portion of the wall with four platforms at each corner of the room, two from which two [[Centurion Echo]]es will emerge. After the pair of simulated Centurions are killed, the encounter will end, revealing the exit and providing the players their rewards. | ||
After exiting the Hexahedron, the Guardians will then find themselves in the Wasteland, once again, face-to-face with the Kell Echo, who will begin to retreat to the next area, a gateway housing a portal to an expansive void harboring numerous octahedrons, with a road leading to a larger one decorated with felt. Here is the Singularity, a massive expanse and race to the Kell Echo, as well as the next encounter. | After exiting the Hexahedron, the Guardians will then find themselves in the Wasteland, once again, face-to-face with the Kell Echo, who will begin to retreat to the next area, a gateway housing a portal to an expansive void harboring numerous octahedrons, with a road leading to a larger one decorated with felt.

Here, the Kell Echo brings two new mechanics to the table. One is a protective field surrounding the Echo that prevents players from suffering the effects of a debuff called '''Dark Entropy''', which instantly kills a player once it stacks up to 10. The other feature is a modified Darkness Bolt ability that, instead of blinding normally, teleports players a few platforms back from the carnage while exposing them to the '''Dark Entropy''' debuff, so it should be avoided at all costs. Death here severely mitigates the damage done to the boss, so Guardians should always be on their toes, staying within the protective aura of the Echo and avoiding its Shrapnel Launcher and its [[Taken Hobgoblin]] sniper back-up. | Here, the Kell Echo brings two new mechanics to the table.

After a while, the Echo will begin to retreat to a platform or two behind it before finally teleporting to the end platform, where it will briefly stay before finally retreating to the tetrahedral arena, thus ending the damage phase.

If it isn’t killed within the damage, the orientation of the tetrahedral room will change in the similar way to the Hexahedron encounter. The encounter ends once the Kell Echo itself is neutralized, where players will then be brought before the [[Orin|Emissary]], be given the answer on the nature of the Darkness, as well as rewards once the final encounter is complete. | ||
