In Destiny 2, Curse of Osiris brings back the Lighthouse. In this, you can pursue secrets.
The Lighthouse was a location in Destiny 1 that many Guardians could never visit themselves. The reason: It was only accessible through the PvP event “Trials of Osiris.” You had to fill out a “flawless ticket,” which granted you access to the Lighthouse and the chest with delicious loot. A challenge that many Guardians failed.
In Destiny 2, everyone – who purchases the 1st DLC Curse of Osiris – can access the Lighthouse. This will be a new social space with Brother Vance as the quest giver. Compared to the Lighthouse from Destiny 1, there will be some changes here, also in terms of visuals.
Pursue secrets in the Lighthouse
The Lighthouse not only holds Brother Vance and a weapon forge, but also contains secrets. This was revealed by community manager DeeJ last week in the first livestream for Curse of Osiris. In this social space, one can pursue secrets.
Yesterday, on November 21st, Lighthouse secrets were teased again in the second livestream. There will be a riddle that has to be pieced together in the Lighthouse, which is solved within the Lighthouse.
What this riddle is about has not been revealed. But the YouTuber Unknown Player has apparently already discovered the reward for a secret in the Lighthouse:
He was one of the handful of YouTubers invited by Bungie to Seattle to record gameplay of Curse of Osiris. While the others played through the story missions, strikes, and open-world activities as planned, Unknown Player took the time to take a close look at the Lighthouse.
In the process, he found this locked chest. It is located roughly beneath Brother Vance’s position and is shielded by a barrier. He tried a few things to open the barrier, but during his playtime, he couldn’t get to the “secret chest.” Here you can see it in the video, the location is marked from 1:11:
This chest bears the same symbol as the “normal” planetary chests found in other worlds. Therefore, the chest may contain nothing more than a few Mercury tokens. However, the fact that it is locked behind a barrier suggests that there could be something “special” inside.
Perhaps the chest is
- the reward for the “riddle” that the developers talked about,
- or the reward for completing all 11 Osiris Vex weapons,
- or something completely different.
Many Guardians hope that there will be an Exotic as a reward, if they can complete the 11 Vex weapons – as a “big goal” at the end. Perhaps this Exotic is in that chest.
We will see. What do you think?
By the way: There are also secrets in the social spaces “Tower” and “Farm”:
