History of Starcrossed (Legend)

Starcrossed (Legend) is the Legend difficulty of Starcrossed, the Season of the Wish Exotic Mission in the Black Garden. Its recommended power is 1830, against 1810 on Normal. Legend applies a -15 Power Delta limit, while Normal applies -5.

Modifiers

• Surges: Solar and Strand
• Threat: Void
• Shields: Arc and Void
• Champions: Unstoppable in the first and third encounters
• Overcharge: bows buffed by the Seasonal Artifact deal 25% more damage
• Shocker: defeated Goblins spawn damaging Arc pools

Normal uses a -5 Power Delta, Solar and Stasis Surges, and a Void Threat, with no Overcharge.

Encounters

1. Traverse the Black Garden: shoot growths to form platforms, collect the Sire's Obligation buff, and defeat a Phalanx to lower the gate.
2. Open the Way: defeat three Phalanxes in the order shown by the gate's symbols.
3. Traverse the Garden: collect the buff that lets you cross the orange fog.
4. Access the Transit Mechanism: overload three deposit stations, each guarded by a Wyvern, and defeat the Gate Lord minibosses.
5. Deactivate the Barrier: combine both buffs to reach the caves, then defeat Phalanxes in symbol order.
6. Defeat Akardon, Pitiless Mind: the final boss. Two Obdurate Phalanxes shield it, Seekers detain players, and the arena is covered in orange fog. The hardest encounter of the mission.

Rewards

The Wish-Keeper Exotic Strand bow is awarded by the mission. The Mara Sov catalyst quests, which tie each refit to a Constellation puzzle, require completing this Legend version: Enduring Snare Refit, Multi-Threaded Snare Refit, Vorpal Weapon Refit and Hatchling Refit.
