The Rift Generator

Overview

The Rift Generator is a 40-point triumph that requires the completion of the "Rift Generator" public event located in the Dreaming City. This event is exclusively associated with the The Strand subclass.

How to complete

The event initiates with two small squads of Scorn and Taken engaging in combat. Guardians must defeat the Abomination leading the Scorn forces to obtain a charge. Inserting this charge into the generator activates it, causing the Taken forces to retreat.

Subsequently, waves of increasingly powerful Scorn attack the generator, reducing its integrity. Periodically, Deranged Abominations appear within these waves; defeating them yields additional charges that can be deposited to restore the core's integrity. The event concludes successfully if the timer expires while the core remains active.

To trigger the heroic variant, Ascendant Rift, depositing a charge spawns a large Blight that sinks into the ground. Destroying three of these blights halts the Scorn attacks and spawns three Taken Wizards around the generator. Eliminating these wizards transports all participants to an Ascendant Realm reflection of the Strand. In this realm, the generator is replaced by Vakarsik, Grasp of Quria, a massive Taken Captain protected by a blight and six channeling Taken Wizards. Once the wizards are defeated, the blight descends, freeing Vakarsik. Defeating Vakarsik completes the event.
