"Take the war directly to the Weavers."

— Mission description

Ascendant Breach is a six-player matchmade activity that was released in Act II of Episode: Dread. The Guardians must venture into the Hive warships of the Weavers of Sorrow in order to put an end to their invasion of the Sol System and locate Shin'ra, the Forge Master

Background

Following the defeat of the Weaver commanders on Neptune, Europa, Nessus and Earth, Vanguard forces convened to make a strategy to fight back against the Weavers of Sorrow on their own turf. Eris stated that with Shin'ra's ascension as a Disciple, he was given new power, including a Dread army. They understood that they must strike at the heart of this invasion by invading Shin'ra's warships in order to locate the Hive Disciple.

Gameplay

Intro

Ascendant Breach begins with the player's landing on the exterior of the Hive warship and must fight against the Hive forces in order to breach the ship. In order to breach into the ship, players must locate Husk Bearers, powerful Hive Knights, that possess Tomb Husks that must be used in order to break through the door. Waves of Hive will be summoned with the Husk Bearers periodically appearing through waves. After four Tomb Husks have been used to break a lock, the door will finally open, allowing players to enter into the depths of the Hive warship.

The Guardians will make their way into a crossroads, in which they will be able to place a rally banner.

Trivia

• The interiors of the Warships bear resemblances to the Dreadnaught, Jetsam of Saturn, and the Warship of Shattered Realm: Ruins of Wrath, which some slight aesthetic changes like Pyramids structures built into the Hive ones.
