These returning shadow engrams can be Concentrate in order to give us their awesome gifts that they have inside, but they need a little bit of effort to do it. You have the option to return them normally, but if you favor one you can target specific rewards that you might want, so this is highly suggested.
How to focus an ombral engram.
Having an umbrella engram yourself, there is a major step you must first take. Return to HELM. Being there, you can see around the square a large machine-like structure called "Prismatic Recaster". Interact with it and you will immediately see a lot of information, with the Umbral debug menu and the tab that appears.
From there you can see one of your engrams and the requirements you need to focus them. In the form of Bounty-type missions, these range from killing "X" enemies, using specific weapons, or even opening an "X" amount of tribute chests. These chests can be unlocked with the Proof hammer, so be sure to read our guide about it here. Either way, everything you need to know about crafting a specific ombral engram is there. This means that you will come back here often.
The Prismatic Recaster is a scalable item, which you'll upgrade over time, unlocking in turn different ways to focus Engrams, as well as other perks. Legendary Shards and Hammer Charges will be needed as materials to produce Focused Shadow Engrams, so be sure to farm those as well.
To sum up, here is a basic structure on how to focus an engram:
- Obtain a bunch of Shadow Engrams.
- Visit HELM to find the Prismatic Recaster and check their tune-up conditions and bonuses.
- Go do whatever is necessary.
- Prepare the necessary equipment for focusing.
- Return to HELM. and use the Recaster to concentrate the engrams.
- Keep updating the Recaster to unlock several ways to focus engrams.
Destiny 2 brings a lot of activities with this new season, and the breeding of Shadow Engrams will be a big part of it. You can simply collect them anywhere in the game, including random drops of enemies without doing any actual activity, so as long as you play the game, the engrams will come to you on a regular basis. Happy farming!
Season of the Chosen currently lives Destiny 2.
