How to beat the Court of Blades in Destiny 2
If you have suffered before in the Court of Oryx from Destiny: The Taken King, then you might not be surprised by the Court of Blades in Destiny 2. But if you have endured enough and can't fathom how to beat it and collect rewards, we will tell you all you need to know. What to do in the Court of Blades in Destiny 2 The Court of Blades is a gauntlet where you will have 10 minutes to beat all the enemies that the game will spawn in front of you. There will be two bosses per encounter, one small boss and a bigger and tougher one. But it's not as easy as it sounds. During the bosses, you will need to select two Augmentations by interacting with the two statues in the room. This adds several secondary objectives to the fight, which also have to be defeated in a short time. Depending on what you choose, you will get different enemies and tasks to complete. In Sharpen, your team will meet a huge knight who can't be damaged in any way, at least not until you destroy his shield via swords that can be collected by defeating other lesser knights. Screenshot by Destructoid Alternatively, in Banish, you will need to find and defeat three Taken Wizards in an allotted time. If you can't do it, you will be teleported to an arena where you will need to fight a separate miniboss to escape. Or Swarm, where you will have to defeat 45 smaller enemies as soon as possible. Basically, the Court of Blades will require you to complete both Augments and bosses, so your team will need to be on the move to take care of both. You get buffs during the fight, but those are random, so you should always pick ones that make sense for the situation you find yourself in. After the 10-minute timer has run out, you will see a "FINAL ROUND" warning beneath the health bar. Once the current boss has been defeated, your team be teleported to the main courtroom to collect rewards. The loot will depend on how many bosses you defeated during the fight. Rewards in the Court of Blades As mentioned, loot is based on how many phases have been completed in those twelve minutes. But loot is also capped, as the Platinum tier of rewards will be filled up after twelve bosses have been defeated. Here are all the loot and rewards you can get in the Court of Blades. Weapon Ammo and weapon type Abyssal Edge Sword (Heavy) Adamantite Auto rifle (Primary) Afterlight Fusion rifle (Special) Anamnesis Bow (Primary) Division Sidearm (Primary) Eyes Unveiled LFR (Heavy) Mirror Imago SMG (Primary) Psychopomp Grenade Launcher (Special) Refusal of the Call Glaive (Special) Watchful Eye Machine Gun (Heavy) At the end of the Court of Blades activity, there will also be the ability to earn Metastasized Essentia, which can be stacked in the small black obelisk, which is at the front of the room that you will visit once the timer is over.
