Disruption

Overview

Disruption is a story mission in the The Edge of Fate campaign, set on Kepler in the Oort Cloud. The Vex are casting a protective signal to the Collective, and you must find a way to bring it down. It is part of The Gorge Strangelet quest line and is played with your Ghost, Ikora Rey and Orin on comms.

The mission takes place in the Assimilated Easement, inside an abandoned Golden Age research facility. It follows "Charge" and comes before Calculus; Calculus becomes available only after Disruption is done.

Walkthrough

1. Follow the signal through the cave networks to the Golden Age lab, using the train portal and fighting through Vex units (Harpies, Goblins, Hydras).
2. Use Matterspark and Mattermorph to pass the puzzle rooms. On Legendary, patrolling Minotaurs cannot be fought; find a red-lit ceiling vent, go Matterspark and take the side vent past them.
3. In the boss room, use Mattermorph on the pillars to expose the signal cubes, then destroy the cubes to drop the shields on the three Dampening Minds (Minotaur bosses named Stichos, Choros and Coda). They can be killed one at a time or together.
4. Extract the data from the Golden Age terminal.

Variants

The mission has Normal and Legendary versions, plus Fabled Mission: Disruption and Mythic Mission: Disruption at higher power. See also Mission: Disruption.

Rewards

Glimmer, materials and gear; completing it moves the Gorge Strangelet quest forward. The recovered data shows the Vex learning to copy the Nine's paracausal abilities.

Notes

Reports differ on the mission order around Disruption: one account mentions a "Surveillance" encounter before it.
