every new season Destiny 2 Introduces a new matchmaking activity for Guardians to farm. In Season of the Deep, players return to Titan and participate in salvage operations to aid Thrawn’s operations. Players will work with the Drifter to thwart various Hive rituals and thwart the Sib Arath plans.
The activity itself is reminiscent of the old mission designs seen during the Shadowkeep season. Players are given a random set of jobs to complete aboard the rig before descending into the depths of Titan. This guide will show you how to complete the various jobs in this activity, defeat the final boss, and give you a quick rundown of the rewards you can expect from participating in the core seasonal activities of Seasons of the Deep. .
Salvage activity guide
Salvage is similar to the previous year’s sundials and zoo activities. This activity requires your fireteam to complete three random jobs of his before descending into the depths of Titan to defeat the boss. Similar to Defiant’s Battlegrounds introduced last season, Salvage His activity features surges and threats of elements that alter the damage he receives and outputs. No Champions in Salvage, feel free to bring your loadout. Strands are especially useful here for dealing with high densities of enemies and navigating large combat arenas.

After clearing out a small group of hives, fireteams are tasked with one of four random tasks.
- Site security: Defend 3 Salvage Mountains from waves of Hive enemies.
- Site credibility: Stop the Hive from reaching the Ritual Portal.
- Weapon disposal: Destroy the Ritual Crystal and defeat the Ritual Mage.
- engineering: Escort parts to repair salvage cranes.
Site security Your team must defend three different focal points from waves of Hive armies. Each Salvage pile is marked with a shield icon on the HUD. The diamond surrounding the icon is the HP of the defense point. Defense points are lost when this reaches zero. If all three are broken, the objective has failed and another task must be completed. Since this is his six-player activity, it’s best to divide your team into pairs to defend each section. Hive ships mark enemy spawn locations. Killing all the hives that spawn should complete this objective in a few minutes.
Site credibility You must defend the Hive Ritual Portal from the constant stream of Hive enemies. I would like to draw your attention to the Thrall and cursed slave, because these enemies will approach the portal the moment they spawn. Other enemies seem more focused on killing you than sacrificing themselves. The entire fireteam can anchor near the portal and take down any hives that get too close. Kill all the hives you find, stay alive, and beware of Thrall.
weapons disposal is a two-part job. In the first section you will have to defeat Taken Ogres to obtain weapons. With this weapon, you can destroy the Ritual Crystals that dot your rig. You’ll need about 3-4 of these weapons to destroy all the crystals, so split your team up and take out the ogres quickly. When all the crystals are broken, several Ritual Mages will spawn. Finish the encounter by defeating all wizards. Feel free to use super or heavy ammo here as it is very tanky.
engineering The easiest job. When a Drifter declares a crane inoperable, multiple crane fuses are marked on his HUD. Grab the fuse and carry it to the crane for repair. Repeat this process several times to complete the encounter.
During an engineering encounter, you can melee and leap forward with the crane fuze. Strand users can also use Grapple her grenade to quickly maneuver the rig while carrying a fuse.
Identify sources of confusion
The Drifter finds a signal on the ocean floor and asks you to investigate it. You are teleported to the underground portion of Titan, directly above the deep ocean. Drop it into the water and descend. It moves very slowly in water and can only strafe and jump.
Suit pressure should be monitored while in the water. This pressure meter on the HUD he slowly decreases every second, Re-pressurize the suit by entering a floating bubble of oxygen. Touch to fully repressurize the suit. Walk by visible bubbles and follow the path. It will take you straight to the final boss.
Defeat Azshradat
Azshradat is a two-part battle that requires fireteams to acquire buffs from specific plates within the arena. Before you start, make sure your fireteam is using the rally flag. This will stockpile your ammo reserves and fill your supermeter.
kill the rune keeper
When the battle begins, Azshradat projects a dome around himself and spawns four Rune-keepers. A symbol floats above the center of the arena. To damage the Rune-keeper, you must stand on a plate that matches this symbol. For example, the image above shows the “A” symbol. Look around the arena for a plate with the same “A” symbol on it and you’ll stand on it.
When done correctly, heinous ritual You can damage the Runekeeper by buffing it while on the plate. Kill all four Rune-Keepers to remove Azshradat’s immunity bubble. Plate symbols are randomized every 20 secondsSo keep an eye on the symbols around the arena for this part.
Battle with Azshradat
Azshradat’s shield works just like the rune-keeper we just killed. Look for the symbols floating near the center and stand on the corresponding plate to damage the boss. This destroys your immune shield, allowing you to deal permanent damage. Note that once the shield is broken, you can get off the plate and continue to damage Azshuradutt. Use heavy weapons, supers and other abilities to melt this boss’s health bar.
Approximately 35 seconds after the rune appears, Azshradat refreshes all runes in the arena and gains immunity again. Repeat this process as many times as necessary until the boss is defeated. Open the treasure chest in the center of the arena to receive your loot. Chests usually drop him one weapon from Season of the Deep’s Taken-themed selection of guns. Salvage If he has a key it will automatically be consumed and drop an additional weapon or armor from this chest.
salvage key
The salvage key and deep dive key are no Same product. These keys are used for various activities. Both keys drop from Ritual Activities and Season Passes.
Salvage Keys are consumables that can be obtained from Season Passes, Vendor Rewards in HELM, and in some cases Ritual Activities such as Vanguard Ops, Crucible, and Gambit Matches. Like last season’s Defiant Keys, there is a limit to how many Salvage Keys you can carry at once. These keys are automatically consumed at the end of all salvage missions and grant additional seasonal rewards when used.
Deep Engram Focusing
Completing Salvage missions will give you a small reputation boost at this season’s exclusive vendor, Sonar Stations, on board your HELM.
