History of Master Conquest: Conductor's Keep

Overview

Master Conquest: Conductor's Keep is the Master-difficulty version of the Conductor's Keep Conquest mission on Earth, fought in the Old Russia region against the Conductor's forces. It plays through a Golden Age military complex and an abandoned Fallen stronghold, with the goal of securing Golden Age artifacts.

Mechanics

Master Conquests are the hardest tier of Conquest and count toward Guardian Rank progression (players reported being unable to reach Guardian Rank 8/9 while the Master Conquests were broken). No exact power requirement is confirmed by the sources used here.

Known issues

In December 2025 the activity was bugged: after the boss was killed the director asked players to travel to a new area but no extraction ship spawned, softlocking the run and blocking Guardian Rank progress. Bungie targeted a fix for 16 December in Update 9.5.0.3 (see the Master Conquest: Derealize status, which was re-enabled earlier in Update 9.5.0.1). Check current status before relying on this.

Rewards

No specific rewards confirmed by sources; its value is Guardian Rank progression.
