If you know these secrets in Destiny 2, you can really show off in front of your teammates. For example, do you know what Queen Mara Sov is “brooding” right in front of our eyes or why researchers are now looking for a monster in the icy desert?
These are the secrets in question: MeinMMO has searched for you in all areas of Destiny 2 for small and rather unknown secrets that Guardians have collected over the years.
Whether Lorefacts, secret missions, or strange discoveries. With this knowledge, you can definitely shorten your teammates’ waiting time in the raid for the 6th Guardian or the approach to the Tower.
1. Queen Mara Sov (often) sacrifices family members
We know that Uldren Sov received a second chance through the Light of the Traveler . But that wouldn’t have been the only way he could have been redeemed. Mara Sov herself tells us during the seasonal story in Season 15 that it was her full intention to let her brother die so he could be revived by the Light.
This sheds a whole new light on Uldren – now known as the Crow. He trusted his sister completely, and she uses him. He was never an independent person, first manipulated by his own sister and later by Savathun.
This is how cold and calculating the Queen is: For Mara, her own brother has always been and is a weapon that she can “wield.” She appears emotionally cold, relentless, and is willing to sacrifice everything and everyone, even her own brother. The lore in The Agers Scepter describes that one little moment that shows how Mara belittles her brother.
How mean Mara Sov’s true self is, you will find out in the new Exo mission for Agers Scepter:
2. Hidden challenges of Light and Darkness
Do you like puzzles? Then head to Europe. Both Light and Darkness offer hidden tests that players can participate in if they know where to look.
- Darkness Test: You must destroy crystals while waves of enemies spawn.
- Light Test: They are solely based on fighting enemies.
This is how you can start the hidden activity: Travel to Asterion Abyss and wait for a snowstorm to start. Once the weather changes, the text message appears: “The Vex are responding to a strange signal …” In the northern part of the map, a Vex Wyvern miniboss will spawn that you must defeat. It grants you a signal buff that can be taken to the Nexus – the zone to the right of the Asterion Abyss.
Meet the friendly harpy: Once there, you will be greeted by a familiar face, the friendly harpy. Players already know her from the story mission on Nessus and the Override mission in the Last City.
Cunning Guardians have suspected that she might even be the reincarnation of Asher Mir. Interact with her and you will start the test.
This is the reward you get: If the challenge is completed by defeating all enemies, you will receive Europe gear.

3. Hard Light is actually a smartphone
If you are a rather mediocre-looking exotic auto rifle, then you have to sell yourself well. Bungie thought the same and packaged the weapon lore for Hard Light as an Apple-style advertisement presentation.
Just like the iPhone was introduced in its first presentation by Steve Jobs, Omolon introduced the exotic with three revolutionary functions at once. Both the text about Hard Light and the actual Apple presentation start identically with “Today, we’re introducing three revolutionary products …”.
Here we have explained the Apple reference to you in detail:
A nice nod to a successful presentation, even if they later had to correct it a bit.
4. Unique emote puzzle in Europe
In Europe, clever Guardians can discover another hidden mission while Sparrow sledding. Through various buffs, you gradually solve the “most emotional” event in Destiny 2 and even get to try inactive radiolaric fluid in the process.
Check out the Europe’s Emote Puzzle Guide by the player Kimber Prime to learn how to start the secret activity.
This reward awaits you: If you successfully complete the challenge, you earn powerful Europe gear here every week. Especially if you want to farm more rolls of Europe gear, it’s a handy thing.
