History of Expunge: Labyrinth

Overview

Expunge: Labyrinth is the first of the Expunge missions, a set of platforming, puzzle and combat missions through the Vex Nexus added in Season of the Splicer (Season 14). Expunge is a seasonal mission set, not a Dungeon. It launches from The Tangled Shore with a recommended Power of 1290 (1-3 Guardians). It is unlocked by Path of the Splicer III, after an Override mission on the Tangled Shore. A harder Expunge: Corrupted Labyrinth followed, and the set continues with Expunge: Styx, Expunge: Tartarus and Expunge: Delphi.

Encounters and mechanics

• Work through a maze of Vex corridors and jumping puzzles with appearing and disappearing platforms, outrunning "purges".
• Defeat Nexus Guardian Harpies to obtain Data Spikes and carry them to blocks that power gravity cannons.
• Boss: Fantis, the Oppressive Mind, said by Shacknews to be about as strong as a Lost Sector boss.
• Gauntlet upgrades such as Codebreaker, Codestrider, Deletion Exclusion and Wirewalker help (Dexerto). Champions appear, so bring matching mods.

Rewards

Mission completion rewards; the Corrupted version adds a Corrupted Vex chest. Exact loot tables were not listed in the sources used. These are 2021 guides, so details may be dated.
