History of Grandmaster: Heist Battleground: Europa

Revision 25893 by archivist at 2026-10-10 09:36:07

Overview

'''Grandmaster: Heist Battleground: Europa''' is a Triumph in Destiny 2. It requires completing Heist Battleground: Europa on Grandmaster difficulty. Bungie's triumph text places it in Season of the Witch. In that season's Grandmaster rotation, which ran from September 12 to November 21, 2023, Europa came up on September 12 and October 24.

How to complete

Heist Battleground: Europa is one of the three Heist Battlegrounds from Season of the Seraph. These cannot be launched individually from the Director. They appear when Vanguard Ops selects them, and they also show up as a Nightfall strike on Legend, Master or Grandmaster.

  1. Retrieve fragments of Rasputin's Submind Kernel from Bray Exoscience before Xivu Arath's forces seize them.
  2. Push through the facility to the Submind Vault.
  3. Breach the security door by destroying five Hive Runes.
  4. Defeat Warwatcher, Eye of Xivu Arath, a Shrieker. At 50% health it becomes immune and gains a shield.
  5. In phase 2, kill the Arc-charged Scorn to collect Arc Charges. Deposit five into the central device to drop the shield.

Grandmaster tips: the recommended Power is 2040. Equipment is locked once the activity starts, so set your loadout first. Radar is disabled. If your fireteam falls in a Restricted Zone, you are returned to orbit and revives are limited. Defeating all Champions earns Platinum rewards, which raise the drop chance for Nightfall weapons. Grandmaster completions can drop Adept weapons.

Seal and reward

This triumph is one of the six Grandmaster Nightfall triumphs in the Conqueror seal. Completing all six awards Total Conquest automatically. The seal's other triumphs are Lightbearer, Breaker of Champions and Conqueror's Discipline. Completing the full seal unlocks the Conqueror title, which can be gilded once per season by completing every Grandmaster Nightfall of that season.

Availability

Grandmaster Nightfalls were removed in Update 9.0.0.1 with Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate on July 15, 2025. Nightfalls now run on a daily rotation covering all strikes and Battlegrounds, and The Portal offers Grandmaster-difficulty versions of PvE activities in their place.
