Here is the solution for the puzzle in the Lighthouse of Destiny 2! You need an Exciting Book as well as four other books to gain access to the chest.
Early in the campaign of “Curse of Osiris,” you enter the Lighthouse. This is the new social space on Mercury that some of you may remember from the “Trials of Osiris.”
In Destiny 2, you can visit Brother Vance there and prepare for new quests and adventures. Additionally, there’s a secret waiting for you that isn’t easy to uncover.
However, the eager Guardians on Reddit have already cracked it – and with our guide, you can solve it in under a minute too.
Solution for the puzzle in the Lighthouse – Here’s how to do it
You solve the puzzle by investigating a total of 5 books in the Lighthouse, then interacting with a Conflux to unlock the barrier in front of the reward chest.
The chest is the goal of this puzzle. You will find it below the small bridge that leads to Brother Vance. Jump down on the left side, that’s where it is:
Here’s how to get to it:
- Enter the Lighthouse.
- Walk straight to Brother Vance. On the platform where Vance stands, the first book is located on the left. It is called “Exciting Book.” Investigate it:
- From there, walk to the right side of the room. On the wall in the bookshelf is the Marked Book.
- The third book is located to the left of the entrance – between the entrance and the weapon forge. It is the Old Book.
- Now go back to the right side near the second book. The fourth book is not in the bookshelf on the wall, but on the table where some scholars of Osiris are sitting. There is the Strange Book.
- Now jump quickly straight to the weapon forge from the fourth book. To the right of the mural, there is a bookshelf with the Important Book. You need to investigate it while hovering because it is placed higher up. Or you can cleverly position yourself on the shelf.
Now a Conflux appears roughly in the middle of the room, which you can interact with. This decodes the “firewall,” allowing you to access the chest. For me, there was a legendary engram and a Mercury token inside.
Two important notes:
- All books are marked with the glowing symbol that is also on the chest. Therefore, the books can be quickly found.
- You need to investigate the books quickly and in the specified order. If you are too slow, you cannot activate the next book. Then you must start over with the Exciting Book.
