Few PvE pursuits can match the challenge of earning a title.

Most titles inDestiny 2require an absurd amount of dedication, whether for their time-gated Triumphs or difficult tasks.

Descendant is one such title, granted to those that can master the Deep Stone Crypt raid.

Destiny 2 Descendant Title

Mastery of this raid is all but required.

Clears using the same class and Subclass element are present here, similar to past titles.

Seven Triumphs relate to completing this raid under certain conditions.

Destiny 2 Deep Stone Crypt Badge

Each of the above Triumphs are self-explanatory.

For example, swapping to a Stasis Subclass right before killing Atraks-1 would contribute towards the Freezing Point Triumph.

If you’re struggling to complete the raid,consult our raid guide.

Destiny 2 Deep Stone Crypt Opening Cutscene

Cryptkeeper

Cryptkeeper:Loot hidden chests in the “Deep Stone Crypt” raid.

Two hidden chests can be found throughout the Deep Stone Crypt raid.

One is found during the blizzard section at the start of the raid.

Destiny 2 Deep Stone Crypt Hidden Chests

The second chest is located during the space jumping puzzle after the Atraks-1 encounter.

To reach it, turn around and look for a series of ledges to climb beside a cliff.

If you’re looking at the map, it’s on the southeast part of the heat bubble.

Destiny 2 Deep Stone Crypt First Hidden Chest

The path will lead to a small alcove that has a chest in plain sight.

Grab it before entering the Fallen airlock.

While inside the heat bubble, hop onto your Sparrow.

Destiny-2-Second-Hidden-Chest

If done correctly, you will be immune to Frostbite until you die.

Doing so leads you to this jumping section and, consequently, allows you to grab the chest solo.

YouTuber Esoterickk has a guide on this thatyou can watch here.

Destiny 2 Not A Scratch Triumph

Six Pikes are present in the first heat bubble players stumble across.

To complete this Triumph, you must take all six of these Pikes to the final heat bubble.

This can be tricky due to the hard-hitting Fallen that dot the path and final bubble.

Destiny 2 Exo Stranger Log 1

Thanks to the Frostbite immunity glitch mentioned above, this is much easier to do than it seems.

Should a Pike be lost during this encounter, it will eventually respawn at the first heat bubble.

Before escorting any Pikes, it’s recommended to kill every Fallen enemy in this encounter.

Destiny 2 Crypt Security Encounter

This should prevent the Pike from being blown up mid-transit.

you’ve got the option to escort the Pikes solo before inviting five other Guardians to your fireteam.

Everyone in the instance gets the Triumph when done this way.

Destiny 2 Crypt Security Dark Room

Rock Bottom

Rock Bottom:Collect all five Exo Stranger logs.

Five Exo Stranger logs are tied to this raid, all of which are found before the Rupture encounter.

Here is a quick rundown of where each log is located.

Instead of designating a single Operator for the Crypt Security encounter, designate three pairs of players.

Their partner will then grab the buff and swap positions.

The second duo will grab the Operator buff and repeat the process.

Destiny-2-Atraks-1-Encounter

Red Rover requires your fireteam to defeat Crypt Security in three phases.

Resource Connection can be completed at any time.

It is not a weekly challenge.

Destiny 2 Deep Stone Crypt Third Encounter

Decide which terminal will be ignored for the encounter.

Ignoring the left/dark side’s terminal is recommended.

Designate one person on the left/dark side to be the Scanner for the encounter.

Destiny 2 Nuke Delay Tip

The Operator will then shoot door panels to let the Scanner through.

Operators can now travel underground.

have a go at one-phase the fuses to make this challenge easier.

Destiny 2 Taniks Thrusters

Copies of Copies is a weekly challenge.

Completing this challenge on the wrong week will not grant the respective Triumph.

Airlocks must be avoided entirely to complete this Triumph.

Destiny 2 Taniks Arena

Due to the strength ofThe LamentExotic Sword, this hardly changes the encounter.

5 Seconds to Paradise can be completed at any time.

It is not a weekly challenge.

Live-Service Games

Each player should be designated a Servitor to kill.

Have all six Servitors weakened before the raid leader gives a countdown.

When everyone is ready, each Guardian will kill their respective Servitor.

Triple-A Games

This should only need to be done once or twice if everyone is using Lament to damage Atraks.

Of All Trades is a weekly challenge that must be active for the Triumph to register.

Every player will need to swap their buff after a set of Nuclear Cores have been deposited.

Creating pairs of fireteam members can be useful for dictating which players get buffs in what order.

Use whichever organizing strategy you prefer.

Failure conditions for this Triumph are somewhat obscure.

Here are all of the failure conditions associated with Of All Trades.

Short Circuit can be completed at any time.

This Triumph is not tied to a weekly modifier.

The Operator makes for a good dunker since they only have to spawn Nuclear Cores for a given round.

The dunker then deposits the Nuclear Core as normal.

Besides this small logistical change, the Rapture encounter plays out the same as normal.

The Core Four is a weekly challenge.

There’s a good chance your raid team is already using this strategy to defeat Taniks.

When Taniks' thrusters become vulnerable, destroy all four of them to spawn four Nuclear Cores.

Deposit these cores to start the damage phase.

Spawning less than four Nuclear Cores during Taniks' vulnerability window fails the challenge.

Ready, Set Go!

Ready, Set, Go!

can be completed at any time.

It is not a weekly challenge.

Similar to The Core Four, there’s a good chance that raid teams have already completed this Triumph.

Fireteams must deposit Nuclear Cores within five seconds of each other.

The “pairs” of nodes this Triumph refers to is referencing the two-core strategy.

Depositing four Nuclear Cores within five seconds of each other is equally as viable.

Should your fireteam struggle with depositing early,do the two-core strategy mentioned here.
