The Mirror — Destiny 2 Walkthrough
Venture into the unsettling Mirror within Savathûn's Throne World to uncover the secrets of the Witch Queen. This walkthrough will guide you through the treacherous paths, challenging encounters, and crucial objectives needed to progress through this pivotal campaign mission. Prepare for mind-bending illusions and formidable foes as you navigate this surreal landscape.
The Mirror is a critical mission within The Witch Queen campaign, set in Savathûn's Throne World. Your primary objective is to navigate the distorted reality of the Mirror, overcome its unique challenges, and ultimately confront a significant threat. This mission often involves puzzle-solving elements and combat encounters that test your understanding of the Throne World's mechanics.
Mission Objectives and Strategy
As you enter The Mirror, you'll immediately notice the disorienting nature of the environment. The paths may shift, and enemies can appear from unexpected angles. Pay close attention to visual cues and audio prompts, as they often indicate safe passage or impending danger.
- Navigating the Illusions: The Mirror is filled with illusory walls and deceptive pathways. Look for subtle differences in textures or lighting to identify the true path. Sometimes, you'll need to interact with specific objects or defeat certain enemies to dispel illusions.
- Combat Encounters: Expect to face several Hive enemies, including powerful Knights and Wizards. Savathûn's Lucent Hive are particularly dangerous, as they can wield the Light against you. Prioritize taking down these Light-wielding enemies first, as they can heal themselves and their allies. Weapons with high burst damage, such as shotguns or fusion rifles, are effective for quickly eliminating them.
- The Mirror's Core: The mission culminates in reaching the Mirror's core. Here, you'll likely face a boss encounter. Study the boss's attack patterns and identify any environmental advantages or disadvantages. Using cover effectively and coordinating with your fireteam (if applicable) is crucial for survival.
Key Items and Abilities
During The Mirror, you'll be using your standard Guardian arsenal. However, understanding the strengths of your subclasses and exotic armor can make a significant difference. For instance, abilities that provide crowd control, such as Stasis abilities or Void grenades, can help manage large groups of enemies. Weapons that excel at dealing with shielded enemies, like those with anti-barrier capabilities, will also be invaluable.
Progression and Rewards
Completing The Mirror is essential for advancing The Witch Queen campaign. Upon completion, you'll typically receive campaign-specific rewards, which may include new gear, crafting materials, or progress towards unlocking new abilities and features within the Throne World. Always check your post-mission rewards screen to see what you've earned.
