Root of Nightmares Master & Weekly Challenges

Master difficulty and weekly raid challenges arrive next week for the Root of Nightmares raid.

  • Master difficulty offers a weekly rotating stat focus for armor.
  • Weekly Challenges add an optional hidden objective for extra loot.
  • Double rewards on Normal difficulty and Adept raid weapon on Master difficulty.
  • Enhancement of Master RoN Adept weapons coming with the mid-Season patch. Note: This change will be retroactive and Raid Adept weapons acquired before the patch can still be enhanced

Current Issues

Jump pads in Root of Nightmares (Scission encounter) can unintentionally kill players with high FPS (above 80). A fix is being investigated for an upcoming release. Strand can be used to bypass the jump pads.

A future update will improve Nezarec’s behavior in Root of Nightmares raid when players are in a Well of Radiance. While it may change current strategies, it will increase the level of challenge.

Guardian Ranks Updates

Bungie noticed that players were facing difficulties in completing the Legendary and Master Lost Sector objectives early in their Guardian Ranks progression since Lightfall’s launch. To address this issue, Bungie has moved the solo completion and solo flawless objectives to higher Guardian Ranks. Specifically, the Legend Lost Sector objective is now at Rank 8, and the Master Lost Sector objective is at Rank 10. Last week, Bungie also reduced Commendations targets in Ranks 7 through 11, further improving the progression path. Bungie is also working on a “rank remix” to improve the process even more in the future.

Summary of Changes:

  • Legend Lost Sector Guardian Rank objectives have moved from Rank 7 to Rank 8.
  • Master Lost Sector Guardian Rank objectives have moved from Rank 9 to Rank 10.
