Destiny 2 reprisal / Normal clear guideSource review:

Location first. Sequence second.

Make every call unambiguous

Point out Oracle positions and portal sides before starting. A location number and a shot-order number are different: repeat both when teaching. Use one caller for each sequence.

Prepare the relic handoff

Learn the Aegis guard, attacks, Super and drop input. Name the receiving player before releasing it. Confirm Champion coverage from the live activity card and choose your triumph restrictions in advance.

OPENING / WAKING RUINS

Build the spire.

Assign two players to each sync plate. Capture all three and stop Praetorians reclaiming them. Destroy threatening Cyclopes. Once the spire opens the Vault, collect the entrance chest and descend to the Templar's Well.

The encounter route

01 / ENCOUNTER

Confluxes

Prevent Vex sacrifices through three defense stages.

Encounter list ↑
Templar's Well: shared encounter arena, Destiny 2
Templar's Well: shared encounter arenaBungie · Destinypedia

Encounter sequence

  1. Defend the center

    Clear all three approach lanes while the single center conflux is active. Prioritize Wyverns and Champions over small enemies.

  2. Split to both sides

    Survive the transition wave, then defend left and right confluxes with three players each. Avoid Fanatic pools.

  3. Cover all three

    After the next transition, return to two players per conflux. Prevent sacrifices until the final defense ends.

  4. Cleanse when marked

    If Marked for Negation appears, reach the cleansing pool below the Templar before its ritual resolves. Call your departure so a partner covers the lane.

If the attempt breaks down
  • Wyvern close: commit burst damage now; its sacrifice can end the attempt.
  • Lane unattended: a nearby pair sends one player while keeping its own conflux covered.

02 / ENCOUNTER

Oracles

Remember the preview and destroy each wave in exactly that order.

Encounter list ↑
Templar's Well: shared encounter arena, Destiny 2
Templar's Well: shared encounter arenaBungie · Destinypedia

Encounter sequence

  1. Name the positions

    Use left 1-3, right 1-3 and middle, viewed from the entrance toward the Templar. Point to each spawn before starting; these labels are locations, not shot order.

  2. Watch both previews

    Each sequence plays twice. When your Oracle flashes, call its order in that wave. Resolve disagreements during the second preview.

  3. Shoot in sequence

    When the full wave appears, the first shooter fires and calls destroyed. Only then does the next shoot. Keep enemy fire away from uncalled Oracles.

  4. Complete five waves

    Waves grow from three Oracles to seven. Clear Hobgoblin snipers between calls and repeat.

The Templar

Break the shield with the Aegis and control the teleport.

Encounter sequence

  1. Resolve the Oracles

    Pick up the Aegis to start. Read and destroy the three Oracles in their displayed order while the carrier charges the relic Super.

  2. Break the shield

    Fire the Aegis Super at the Templar. Free detained teammates, then damage the exposed boss. Use primary fire on cages rather than explosives at your feet.

  3. Block to extend

    Stand in the marked teleport ring to prevent relocation and extend damage. Follow new rings as they appear; keep the carrier alive and the relic held.

  4. Reset if needed

    If the teleport succeeds, prepare another Oracle sequence and relic Super. Do not abandon the Aegis: its dropped-relic countdown wipes the team.

If the attempt breaks down
  • Blocker trapped: another player frees them immediately.
  • Lost shield break: wait for a clear Super shot rather than firing into cover.

TRAVERSAL / GORGONS & CHASM

Cross without being seen.

Follow the creek into the labyrinth and use the left-side rocks for cover. Wait for patrols, climb the large angled rock, then cross the higher rock ledges. Drop toward the small rock near the exit hole once the patrols separate. Regroup before the disappearing-platform chasm and wait for each landing to appear.

04 / ENCOUNTER

Gatekeepers

Relay the Aegis between portals and defend the final conflux.

Encounter list ↑

Left: red desert
Right: green jungle

Viewed from rally toward the throne. Call the shielded Praetorian's side before sending the Aegis.

Encounter sequence

  1. Open both portals

    Kill the center Gatekeeper, take the Aegis and capture both plates. Send a defender inside each portal. Left is red desert; right is green jungle.

  2. Answer the Praetorian

    One portal gets a shielded Praetorian, the other a Wyvern. Call the Praetorian side; the Aegis enters and breaks its shield.

  3. Relay the relic

    The carrier hands the Aegis to the inside defender and stays to defend. That defender exits, passes to the outside receiver, then waits as the next receiver. The new carrier enters the other portal.

  4. Keep access open

    Outside defenders kill Gatekeepers and protect plates from Minotaurs. Respect portal and pickup lockouts; use a new eligible carrier for each crossing.

  5. Finish centrally

    When the main-room conflux appears, everyone returns. Use the relic against shielded Praetorians and prevent sacrifices until the defense ends.

If the attempt breaks down
  • Portal closed: clear the Gatekeeper, then check its plate.
  • Receiver locked out: select an eligible teammate before dropping.

Encounter sequence

  1. Call the destination

    Say red desert or green jungle. Outside players open the matching left or right portal. Inside, one takes the Aegis and repeatedly cleanses both shooters.

  2. Match the orientation

    Inside players cross to the rally-equivalent end and face the throne, matching outside readers. Read each three-Oracle preview; inside shooters destroy that order.

  3. Return after nine

    Complete three sets of three. Exit and receive a final cleanse. Time's Vengeance starts at the last Oracle, opening damage and accelerating abilities.

  4. Separate for detain

    The player with Imminent Detain moves away before the cage forms; teammates break it. Keep the Aegis safe and repeat until Atheon falls.
