Follow our comprehensive Destiny walkthrough for 'A Stranger's Call' on Venus. Learn how to defeat the Vex, including Goblins and Minotaurs, and find the Guardian Outpost.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Head to the Shattered Coast to find the Guardian Outpost and link up your Sparrow.
  2. 2
    Descend the hill and clear out the Fallen enemies.
  3. 3
    Proceed around the corner towards the sea, defeat the Fallen in the street, and then engage the larger group inside the building. Use a grenade to flush them out.
  4. 4
    Interact with the computer at the top of the steps and deploy your Ghost to locate your next objective.
  5. 5
    Return to the coast and find a hole that leads into a corridor towards Ishtar Academy. The area will become a Darkness Zone.
  6. 6
    Deploy your Ghost to investigate and encounter the Vex.
  7. 7
    Defeat the Vex Goblins on the lower level. Their glowing midsection is a weak point. Shooting their heads off causes them to charge wildly.
  8. 8
    Move to the balconies for cover and better firing positions. Your objective will update to “Resist the Vex.”
  9. 9
    After the initial wave of Goblins, Hobgoblins will appear. They are similar to Goblins but deploy a shield when hit, requiring a single shot kill or shield destruction.
  10. 10
    A Minotaur will appear at the far end. It moves quickly, can blink walk, and has no specific weak point. Use Grenades or Super Abilities for this enemy as Heavy Weapons are often too slow.
  11. 11
    Continue to use pillars for flanking maneuvers against the Vex.
  12. 12
    The mission ends after defeating the Minotaur. Return to the Tower with the Goblin’s Eye.
  13. 13
    Speak with the Vanguard Mentor to receive an Armor Upgrade.
Tips
  • Venus features lush jungles, water, universities, museums, and libraries, and is home to the Vex. Spirit Bloom can be collected here.
  • The Guardian Outpost on Shattered Coast is similar to those found in Earth and Moon missions, requiring minimal travel from the landing spot.
  • When fighting Goblins, aim for their glowing midsection. For Hobgoblins, either kill them in one shot or destroy their shields.
  • For the Minotaur, Grenades or Super Abilities are most effective due to its speed and mobility.
  • Use the pillars in the Ishtar Academy area to your advantage for cover and flanking.
  • Armor Upgrade
