Spoiler: Bunker RAS-2 (Outside)

You can find this small area at the bottom of a bunker, underneath the farthest ship in the Forgotten Shores. In is, theres three level 18 Knights, one being a named Knight, Celebrant of Oryx. The bunker also leads into an unfinished area called Seraphim Vault. To get into the vault itself, you need to do a bit of map glitching. I'll show you how in my next post.

This is the ship you're looking for. Its the one that holds the second device you have to scan during the Earth mission.


Next to the device is this stairwall. You'll go down a couple flights of stairs and end up...


In Bunker RAS-2.


Guarding it is two level 18 sword wielding Knights, and this fine gentleman, Celebrant of Oryx. He's a lot stronger than the other knights, so be ready for a bit of a fight.


Once you take care of the knights down there, you'll find this door and control panel, along with other doors. Those letters on the door are Russian for "F" and "B". Not sure what that may mean, but I'm thinking about it. Its a Bungie game, so there is a reason behind it.


Close up on the control panel.


There's also a couple storage boxes scattered around. Nothing significant though, as far as I can tell.

I'm thinking the bunker and the vault may have something to do with the Warmind Rasputin. What exactly that is and what it does hasn't been revealed yet, but the game is only a couple weeks old. So we'll find out eventually.

 

I have no idea what this is but it looks awesome

 

You could find this in the beta, and its still there in the full release. Not sure what its going to be, but these a reason Bungie left it in there.

Spoiler: Seraphim Vault

This is what the door inside Bunker RAS-2 leads to, the Seraphim Vault. The only acessable areas so far are the entrance hallway, a semi circular hallway, and a viewing area with a big window that shows a room that I assume holds Rasputin. Its a little difficult to get to, but the video below is pretty good at showing you what to do.



Once you go through the trouble of glitching through the map, climbing and jumping around invisible walls, then landing on the railing, you'll end up here.

View of the entrance from inside the hallway leading into the vault.



At the other end of the semi circular hallway, you'll find this door. Now, I know I said the vault may have something to do with the Warmind Rasputin, but this door makes me think the vault may be owned by the Seven Seraphs, a supposed faction yet to be seen in Destiny. What makes me think this, is that there are seven markings on this and other doors inside the vault, and the name of the vault itself, Seraphim. Maybe I'm over thinking it, or maybe its something completely different. We'll have to wait and see.


Halfway through the semi circular hallway, you'll come to these stairs. Go up, and you'll come across...



This. Tons of wires, cables, and other things connected to whatever that is in the center. Rasputin? Something to do with the Seven Seraphs? Only time till tell.



Going back to the Forgotten Shores, past the rock you use to glitch through the map. Keep going until you find two Dregs. A little past them on the left you'll see a path. If you follow that you'll eventually come to a large storm drain, with a familiar looking door inside. Could this be the exit from the vault? Or could this lead to something else?

 

I have no idea what this place could be. At first I was thinking it might be connected to the Vault of Glass. But its on the opposite side of the map. Its connected to that structure in the sky, but I don't know what that is or what it could be.

Spoiler: Venus Citadel

Explore Venus a bit and you'll eventually find The Citadel. Once you get there, find The Citadel and a stone bridge. The bridge is guarded by Goblins and Harpies on one side, and either a Minotaur or a Praetorian on the other.





On the otherside of the bridge, you'll find this gap in the wall. Follow it.



Following the gap leads to a place called The Juncture. You'll fight more Vex the deeper into The Juncture you go, and you'll eventually find...



This. Its guarded by a lot of Vex, so be ready for a little battle.

 

SPOILER ALERT: FINAL FANTASY XV, FINAL BOSS

 

Just some locations I find/hear about on the Destiny Reddit that I decide to check out. They please my inner curiosity, and my want to explore. I've had an interest in Archeology, but I haven't acted upon it.

 

Neat. when I was in my early teens I wanted to do Egyptian archeology

 

Aztec and Mayan were my thing.

 

oh? Would I be correct in assuming one of your favorite movies is the road to El Dorado?

 

Not really, but I did enjoy it. As far as movies go, my favorites are crime dramas like Public Enemies.

 

That's super cool! I really hope we get to explore those things in the future. 8)

 

I wonder if I'm the only one here NOT planning on getting destiny, or even the only person here not interested in it?

 

If anyone has an Xbox One and wants to see those locations for themselves, I can take you to them. Just give me your gamertag.

 

Oh my, Alien Isolations graphics are great. I think the lighting and some colors mess up with the looks of it, sometimes makes it look kinda, plastic-like (?). Any way, Photorealism here we come.

 

maybe not entirely related to gaming but it does involve consoles and such

 

I have no interest in it at all either. I'm actually quite bitter and cynical about it, but I won't bring that up here, seeing as there are some here that apparently do enjoy it.

 

I don't plan on getting it, so far every review and playthrough where people focus on more than just the graphics they say it's extremely repetitive using the same few levels multiple times with a relatively crappy story. if it weren't made by bungie it probably wouldn't be as popular as it is. if i'm gonna buy an fps MMORPG I'm going to get borderlands the pre-sequel

 

There is indeed a huge deception about the story that is almost completely nonexistent. I took the game for solo and cooperation but I'm having the most of fun in competitive multiplayer (note that I haven't done the raid or played the assault with friends yet, only random strangers through matchmaking and those ones are not talkative at all).

 

My main gripe with Destiny is the lack of split-screen co-op. It's literally the only thing it needed for me to buy it. My boyfriend went and got it anyways with money he should have saved for an emergency. We're running out of energy to play it alone and really struggling to care. We don't have Gold for XBOX Live so it's not like we're even doing the stuff that other people are doing. The more bored I get with it the more annoyed I am he bought it without consulting me first ><

 

looking forward to borderlands the pre-sequel and the evil within, best part, they come out the same day

as for xbox live I think you should have at least online multiplayer with xbox live silver and just reserve some of the more specialty features for gold
