Like the Trial of Osiris, players want to know to complete The Way Between quest Destiny 2. If you’ve defeated Dredgen Sere in the Equilibrium dungeon, your journey is far from over. Destiny 2 The Way Between quest picks up from there, guiding Guardians through a Praxic Trial with support from Aunor Mahal. Completing this quest rewards you with powerful loot and upgrades.
For those familiar with dungeon quests, The Way Between quest follows a familiar rhythm: multiple dungeon clears, timed encounters, and puzzle-solving. Fortunately, Equilibrium is on the shorter side, and bosses are manageable if you know the mechanics.
Here’s a detailed step-by-step guide to completing The Way Between quest Destiny 2 and claiming your rewards.
The Way Between Quest Destiny 2
Look for an Integrated Relic
The quest begins once you defeat Dredgen Sere. He drops an Integrated Relic at the end of the dungeon. Take this relic to the Praxic Temple at the start of Equilibrium. Placing it opens a previously locked door and moves the quest forward.
Once inside, place the artifact to spawn a Taken Blight. This mechanic is similar to the ones used for Praxic Blade catalysts in Fire and Ice.
The quest follows a pattern: destroy Taken Blights, collect relics, defeat bosses, and return to the temple to deposit artifacts.
Recover the First Praxic Relic
After your first encounter outside the Praxic Temple, backtrack instead of entering the ship. Head to the path on the right, destroy the first Taken Blight, and collect the Shadow Novice and In Shadow buffs.
Clear enemies before the In Shadow timer ends. Destroying Acolyte’s Eyes adds 15 seconds per eye. Follow the race course, taking out enemies and interacting with terminals using your alternate grenade as needed.
Once the area is clear, a door unlocks, revealing the first hidden relic. Deposit it in the Praxic Temple to advance.
Master the Darkness and Find the Second Relic
Your next objective is another Taken Blight, located before jumping to the other side of the ship. Destroy it using the Praxic Blade to start a timed encounter.
Clear enemies, navigate the cramped hallway, and jump across the ship. Follow the dungeon path to the shaft, where you’ll face Harrow, the Dredgen Apprentice. Watch out for explosive vents.
Defeat Harrow and Dredgen Sere, then deposit the second relic in the inner Praxic Temple.
Traverse the Imperium’s Shadows
The third relic involves a platforming puzzle using Shadow mechanics. After defeating Harrow, you’ll encounter the Taken Blight just before the puzzle. Destroy it, collect the energy, and clear enemies in the first room.
In the jumping puzzle area, use your alternate grenade on shielded enemies to reveal Taken Blights. Breaking these spawns floating platforms and opens buttons throughout the room. Navigate the puzzle quickly to reach the final relic and unlock the next temple section.
Open the Taken Portal in the Inner Temple
Deposit the final relic in the inner temple to trigger the quest’s climax. A portal appears, dropping you into the Ascendant Realm for a showdown against a Shade of Dredgen Sere.
Stack Shadow buffs, destroy Acolyte’s Eyes to extend timers, and strip shields from immune enemies to progress. Multiple Taken Blights appear, use the Praxic Blade to break them and create platforms to reach the Shade.
Attack the boss with your Shadow buffs and alternate grenade to break shields. Complete two damage phases to defeat the Shade of Sere and finish the way between quest.
