History of Empire Hunt I

Overview

Empire Hunt I is a Tier I Variks Sabotage quest on Europa, unlocked after the Beyond Light campaign and Reclaiming Europa. Its objective is a short Europa activity set; completing it reduces the Herealways Piece cost of Empire Hunt quests in Variks's historical vendor system. Higher-tier upgrades may waive weekly Hunt costs, so treat the original price discount as historical.

Walkthrough

1. Complete five patrols on Europa.
2. Gather 25 planetary materials on Europa.
3. Defeat 10 combatants with finishers. The three objectives can be completed while roaming the destination.
4. Return to Variks at Charon's Crossing.

Rewards

• Unlocks Empire Hunt II.
• Reduces the Herealways Piece cost of Empire Hunt quests. At launch, guides described the base 40-piece cost as halved; later Sabotage upgrades made some weekly Hunts free.
