History of Kell's Grave

Kell's Grave is a Gambit map set on The Tangled Shore. It is an 8-player map that launched with Forsaken on September 4, 2018, and was removed from rotation with Beyond Light on November 10, 2020, largely over complaints about its hazardous terrain.

Layout

Three combat zones, the Slums, the Pit and the Canal, surround a central Bank area, separated by an acidic lake that acts as a kill zone. Many pitfalls and vertical layers made traversal dangerous. Kill-zone damage was unusually high, so accidental falls were punishing; launch cannons at the Canal and the Slums let players cross quickly. The Pit favoured close-range fights with enemies gathering in large numbers, while the Canal was more open with several platform access points.

How to play it

Queue for Gambit from the Director during the period it was in rotation (2018 to 2020).

History

Introduced in Forsaken (September 4, 2018). Removed with Beyond Light (November 10, 2020) after negative feedback on traversal; Destinypedia is the source for this reasoning.

Return

The map returned in Episode: Revenant as a location for the Onslaught: Salvation mode, with clusters of red Egregore. The Drifter provides callouts in Gambit, and Scorn enemies appear.
