Walkthrough

The Grand Veilgate

The raid starts in the Decrepit Wastes, where Akildis and her remaining Emperor Traditionalists have sealed the Veilgate shut and are barring the Guardians from entering.

The Tenebrous Nexus

The Teneborous Nexus acts as a hub for the Material Void. There are numerous branches that lead into various alternate realities, which can be completed in any order. The anchors (bosses) of each alternate reality must be killed in order to purify the Nexus and open up the main path. It is the only zone in the raid free of enemies.

Vision of Strife

The upper left branch of the Nexus leads to a vision of The Last City, under attack by the House of Lions. In this reality, Atrykis managed to convince Joskaa of the errors of humanity and the Traveler, which escalated to an all out war between the Vanguard and the House of Lions. The Anchors of this reality are Joskaa, Seriviks, and Atrykis.

Vision of Corruption

The lower left branch of the Nexus leads to a vision of Levania, twisted and corrupted with a massive Void-like rift in the skies above it. In this reality, AJ, Nagihiko, Mal and Brayden succumbed to Kothal's madness and became his heralds in place of Scyva, successfully summoning Kothal and beginning to merge the material realm with the Void. The Anchors of this branch are the Twilight Council, consisting of AJ, Nagihiko, Mal, and Brayden.

Vision of the Dark Future

The center-left branch leads to a vision of an alternate timeline in which numerous Guardians betrayed the Light. In this reality, Ana Bray had succumbed to the Darkness and allied with a corrupt Eris Morn and the forces of the Hive and Vex. They are the Anchors of this branch.

Vision of the Wrathborn

The center-right branch leads to a vision of the Moon, where Xivu Arath's forces had succeeded in enthralling the Fallen, Hive, and Cabal forces. In this reality, the High Celebrant managed to transform Osiris into a Wrathborn. The High Celebrant and Osiris are the Anchors of this branch.

Vision of Legion

The upper right branch leads to a vision of a newly modified version of The Almighty, where Ghaul managed to harvest the Traveler's light and annihilated the Solar System, crowning himself as the Lightbringer and leading a crusade against the Pyramids. He is the Anchor of this branch.

Vision of ??

The lower right branch leads to a vision of (TBA)

Vision of Clarity

The bottom right branch leads to a vision of the Morning Star installation above Europa. In this reality, the AI of the installation had been awakened, and plans on conquering the Sol System with an army of Exo soldiers. An Exo version of Clovis Bray is the anchor of this branch.

Vision of Unification

The bottom left branch leads to a vision of The Terminus within the Ishtar Sink of Venus. In this reality, the Kell, Joskaa, is a Guardian and attempts to stop Skolas, Kell of Kells and Seriviks conquer the Citadel and utilize the Vex to pull the entire House of Wolves through time. Skolas is the anchor of this branch.

Prestige Walkthrough

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Although the House of Lions, Twilight Council, Dark Guardians, Wrathborn, Red Legion, Shadowkeepers, Exos, and House of Wolves are the main Anchors of the Nexus's 8 branches, there are a few branches that are available only in Prestige Mode.
