History of Malfeasance (quest)

Revision 5518 by archivist at 2026-10-01 23:23:37

Overview

Malfeasance is the Exotic quest for the Malfeasance hand cannon. The in-game quest lists a single step, defeating a Primeval in Gambit. The longer chain below (called "Darkness in the Light") comes from older guides and may be outdated, so check in-game.

Walkthrough

  1. Defeat a Primeval found within Gambit (the Ascendant Primeval spawn drops The Seething Heart; your team must win that round).

Older chain, per Shacknews and others:

  1. Take the Seething Heart to The Drifter to receive "City of Secrets".
  2. Kill 25 Taken bosses or minibosses in the Dreaming City.
  3. Complete the special variant of The Corrupted strike to Callum Sol's grave.
  4. Earn progress in Gambit by banking Motes and winning (dropped Motes cost double).
  5. Defeat 25 Guardians via invasions, and kill four in one invasion.
  6. Return to the Drifter in the Tower.
