History of The Arkborn

The Arkborn is an encounter in The Menagerie, a six-player arena activity that first appeared in Season of Opulence and was later vaulted with Destiny 2: Beyond Light.

Guardians run through pillars of green Arkborn energy to collect it, and each can carry up to three at once as a timed buff. Energy is delivered to drop-off points called containment cores; nine deliveries are needed, three of them made with a full load. Once the cores are filled, a boss spawns: a Treasured Ogre, a pair of Sky-Eater Wizards, or both in the final part. Letting the timer run out while carrying energy kills the Guardian.
