Seasonal Arena
Vex Offensive
Enter a portal to the Black Garden and fight on the frontlines of an ongoing battle against the Vex.
Overview
Vex Offensive was the six-player seasonal arena of Season of the Undying (Destiny 2: Shadowkeep year). Guardians entered a portal to the Black Garden from The Moon and fought alongside the front lines against the Vex. Power: 750 as listed by the game data.
Encounters and mechanics
- Three rounds against Sol Divisive Vex forces. In the first two, kill waves of enemies, then Gate Technicians to collect Void Craniums used to destroy Oracles (six in round one, twelve in round two).
- The boss round is Crotheon, a Minotaur that rotates between three positions. Craniums temporarily lower its shield, opening roughly 30-second damage windows.
- A later variant, Vex Offensive: Final Assault, swapped the boss for the Undying Mind.
Rewards
