Sometimes from exotic quests in Destiny 2 it's very easy. Sometimes, like in the case of the Xenophagus quest, the community does a lot of work figuring out what to do. The Xenophage quest arrived in the game today, and in this guide, we're going to show you how to start it.
Destiny 2 - The Xenophagus Quest - The Journey
How to start the quest
To begin this quest, you will need to travel to Eris' occasional meeting place, inside the Crimson Dungeon and overlooking the Dark Ship which is at the center of Shadowkeep's story. The easiest way is to spawn in Eris and see if there is an open portal there. Otherwise, let's go to Sorrow's Harbor!
Spawn at Sorrow Harbor and make your way to the dungeon entrance. Go inside, then take the door on the left. Follow this until the words Enduring Abyss appear on the screen. Now slow down a bit and keep an eye on the wall to the right as you go forward. You will see a tunnel joining the one you are going through. Jump on it, then stay forward to go to the part of the Dungeon that Eris likes to visit.
Interact with the four statues here, as shown in the header image, and you'll see an onscreen message about the darkness. You will now be able to loot the chest there and get a new exotic quest called The Journey.
I'll update this guide with more quest steps, as soon as I know what they are. To say this one is a bit ambiguous is a bit of an understatement!
Stage 2 - Emergence
For the next step, you need to go to the Anchor of Light and light six lecterns in a specific order. The video above will show you where to go and in what order to light the lecterns. If you need help finding the exact location, you can find a map and a more detailed guide for this part of the quest here.
Step 3 - Pathfinder
This quest asks you to find Shards, which are contained in the four Lost Sectors on the Moon. You must play in each of the Lost Sectors. At the end, you will see a beehive glyph puzzle hanging on the wall. A glyph at the top indicates what you need to turn all other symbols into. To change a glyph, launch it, but it will also change other glyphs. The solutions for each lost sector are presented below. Be sure to use a hand cannon or a scout to avoid accidentally shooting the wrong glyph. Just shoot them in the order shown below. If you want a video to help you out, the one below will tell you the order in which you want to shoot.
