Ghosts of the Deep (triumph)

Overview

Ghosts of the Deep (triumph) is a triumph awarded for completing the objectives associated with the Ghosts of the Deep dungeon. The triumph tracks the player's progress through the dungeon's encounters.

How to complete

To complete this triumph, players must progress through the Ghosts of the Deep dungeon on Titan. The dungeon is located beneath the New Pacific Arcology in the oceans of Titan.

Players must first locate the Lucent Hive ritual site. This requires completing four cycles to imbue four thrall statues with a "Vestige of Light." Each cycle involves defeating a specific group of Hive, including a Lightbearer, to obtain a Vestige, and then depositing it at the corresponding rune revealed by a Veilweaver Wizard.

After clearing the ritual, players must explore the Arcology and dive to the seafloor. This involves navigating an underwater section where oxygen bubbles are shared among teammates. Players must reach the bottom and defeat Ecthar, the Shield of Savathûn. This encounter requires using Deepsight to reveal symbols, spawning Lightbearers to collect Vestiges, and charging thrall statues to lower Ecthar's shield. Players must defeat Ecthar and crush his ghost to proceed.

Finally, players must continue to the final encounter against Šimmumah ur-Nokru. This fight takes place in a cove containing the corpse of the Taken King, Oryx. Players must use Deepsight to reveal orbs over Oryx's body parts, lure Šimmumah to them, and align symbols to reveal runes. Vestiges of Light must be collected from Lightbearers in methane pockets and deposited at the revealed orbs. Once all three are imbued, players can attack Šimmumah's shield. Defeating Šimmumah and crushing her ghost completes the dungeon and the triumph.
