History of A Hollow Coronation

Overview

A Hollow Coronation is the Season of the Lost Exotic quest and story mission that leads to Ager's Scepter, an Exotic Stasis Trace Rifle. Mara Sov sets it after you finish Tracing the Stars III; you speak to her at the H.E.L.M. and the quest runs 12 steps. The mission itself takes place in the Dreaming City, in the Caliburn Gatehouse vault, and is launched from the H.E.L.M. via the Director. Recommended power is listed as 1270 by one source; the in-game data lists 1250. It is a Season 15 activity, so check whether it is still obtainable.
