The Taken are assembling a new army to march on the Vex Collective. It is essential to stop them.
Overview
The Long Play is a Story-type world quest mission on Io, in Echo Mesa (the Rupture area). It is the 4th mission of the Dynasty world quest line. The Taken are assembling a new army to march on the Vex Collective and must be stopped. Recommended power is listed as 130 in the original (2017-era) sources; the in-game activity entry shows a legacy value of 750 and it is not meaningful for current play.
