History of The Corrupted

Overview

The Corrupted is a Strike in The Dreaming City (with sections in the Ascendant Realm), added with the Destiny 2: Forsaken expansion. It is a 1-3 player activity, launched from the Strike playlist or the Dreaming City map. It unlocked after the world's first completion of the Last Wish raid. Its premise is to hunt down one of Queen Mara's trusted advisors, Techeun Sedia, and free her from Taken possession. Power and difficulty follow the Strike playlist and Nightfall tiers.

Encounters and mechanics

• The route runs through the Temple of Illyn and the Adytum.
• Players shift between the normal plane and the Ascendant plane. Awoken relics destroy enemy shields, and there are platforming sections across floating platforms and an elevator sabotage section with enemy waves.
• Mid-strike bosses include Ashorc and the Temple Claimant; the final boss is Sedia, the Corrupted.
• Enemies are Scorn, Taken and Hive.
• A mission version appears in the Malfeasance exotic hand cannon questline, with different dialogue and the boss Yachaar, Bound to Sedia.

Rewards

The strike's rewards are listed on this page. The Malfeasance questline also has a mission variant.
