History of Wrathborn Hunts

Wrathborn Hunts were the seasonal activity of Season of the Hunt (Season 12), run with Crow's device, the Cryptolith Lure.

Overview

The Lure is used to draw out Fallen and Hive corrupted by Xivu Arath into an army called the Wrathborn. Fallen hunts begin at the Cryptolith on The Tangled Shore and Hive hunts at the Cryptolith in the Dreaming City.

How it works

• The Lure is obtained from Crow after completing a Moon mission (sources name it differently: "Trail of the Hunted" vs "Trail of Vengeance").
• It is charged by playing strikes, Crucible and Gambit; powerful enemies and precision kills charge it faster, and up to three charges can be stored.
• Three Lure mods are slotted. The first picks the hunt and reward type; the others change weapon perks, armor stat rolls, or the amount of Lure Mutations and Recon Data. Weak mods set hunts at 1150 Power and strong ones at 1220 (per TheGamer).
• Bosses are immune except while holding the Wrathborn buff, gained from pools made by defeating Knights. Example targets include Savek, HKD-1, Dul Arath and Xillox.

Rewards

Seasonal weapons such as Blast Butte and Royal Chase, Wild Hunt armor, Recon Data and mutation mods.
