Where is Destiny 2’s July 30 Ascendant Challenge Located?
Before getting started, it’s best to attempt this challenging task as a trio. It’s also helpful to have Melting Point and at least two Sleeper Simulants to take down the tough adds you’re about to fight.
You’ll find the challenge in the Chamber of Starlight Lost Sector in the upper areas of the Dreaming City. The map above reveals its exact location if necessary.
Completing the July 30 Cimmerian Garrison Ascendant Challenge
Once you’re there and have popped your Tincture of Queensfoil, you’ll see the Portal at the very back of the Sector suspended in the air. To win this challenge you must strike a perfect balance between attacking and fleeing. Your main adversaries include axe-wielding Ascendant Knights, Shreikers, Boops, Hob Goblins and Shadow Thrall. Of those enemies, only the Goblins truly stunt your progress. The path to the end is straightforward, but you must move quickly.
After you spawn you’ll encounter three Knights. Keep moving, and you’ll reach points where you see a message that reads “the Knights close in.” This means they’ve dropped their helmets and are charging towards you. Toland is also visible at certain spots and he essentially guides you to where you need to head next.
Soon after the second set of Knights, you’ll arrive here. Just beyond it is a fork in the path to go left or right. Go to the left, and you’ll see a suspicious rock platform. Jump to it, and grab the Ahamkara Bone at the end. Backtrack to the right to continue with the challenge.
Go up the winding staircase that eventually opens up to a platforming puzzle. Watch for Boops, make some careful jumps and you’ll arrive at the large central platform ahead. This is where the boss spawns. It includes a bunch of adds and more Ascendant Knights. There’s a Shrieker at the top of the pile, but killing it is worthless. The main strategy is to avoid it using cover and focusing your attention on the Knights. Do that, and you’ll be rewarded.
Lore and Toland Locations for July 30
At the beginning of the Challenge, you’ll see a bridge. An egg is down and to the right from there. You should see Toland hovering around the area. Beyond the first egg is a floating saucer you can jump to to get to another one. From that second saucer is a cliff in the distance. This is where the challenge ends. The egg is on the side of that cliff. It’s at the top of the spiral staircase, near the end of the challenge, suspended in the area.
