Vesper's Host: Difference between revisions

Players begin on a catwalk within Vesper Station and after turning right up ahead, will introduce them to the central mechanic of the dungeon: the Viral Augment pickup and Augment Terminals. The '''Viral Operator''' allows the player who to shoot the pads throughout the dungeon while the '''Viral Scanner''' highlights various objects throughout the dungeon. One of the differences between these augments compared to those within the [[Deep Stone Crypt (raid)|Deep Stone Crypt]] [[Raid]] and [[Seraph's Shield]] [[Exotic Mission]], is that the Viral Augment pickups have a 1 minute timer before it kills the player who possesses it unless it is deposited within the Augment Terminals. To open the airlock to progress forward, the players must kill a Vandal possessing a Viral Augment pickup they need. The player with the Viral Scanner pickup will see an array of yellow hexagons on their radar. They will now see if the yellow hexagon either disappears or changes into a white hexagon on the radar by simply approaching the pads throughout the area. After enough yellow hexagons are changed into white hexagons on the radar, they must guide another player who possesses the Viral Operator pickup to the pads marked with a white hexagon for them to shoot. Once all of them are shot, the airlock door will open and take away the Viral Augment pickup once they pass through.

Now that the central mechanics of the dungeon are made clear, players will see an area that has 3 passageways. One passageway has a red heart symbol above the door, another one has a blue lung symbol, and the third one has a yellow brain symbol. After being familiar with the layout, approach a white sphere and interact with it to begin the first encounter. When the encounter starts, a Brig will spawn in front of the sphere you just interacted with. Player must kill the Brig and the Vandal who possess the Viral Scanner pickup you will need. After killing the Brig, players will now see one of the passageways have an alarm going off. Go into that passageway and traverse it until you see a barrier up ahead. Now, players must kill a Marauder called the Machine Priest's Assistant to lower the barrier and begin the next part of the encounter. Remember to deposit the Viral Augment pickups into the Augment Terminals before the timer expires, then you can reacquire the Viral Augment pickups there until you have unlocked the nuclear core. After acquiring both Viral Augment pickups discussed earlier and identifying which pads needs to be shot, players will see a nuclear core that will inflict the '''Radiation''' debuff to the carrier and kill them if they acquire 10 stacks of '''Radiation''', so be sure to rotate carriers often. After returning to where they started the encounter, a Brig will spawn that will prevent you from depositing a nuclear core into a chest. Kill the Brig and deposit the nuclear core. Repeat this whole process 2 more times and the encounter will be completed.
