Written by reddogdied. This raid was released with “Beyond Light” and cannot be played without the DLC.
Loot Table:

The Sparrow Run:

The goal is to get through to the last bubble on either sparrows or provided pikes. There are 7 in total.
If you are outside the bubbles, you start stacking a frostbite debuff. At 9 stacks, you wipe. Just take it slow, moving from one bubble to the next and killing the enemies that spawn.
The secret chest is at the last bubble up around the rocks before you go through the doors to the next encounter
Security Room:

Loadout notes: You want something that focuses on clearing enemies as well as a weapon that can handle hitting fuses down quickly. Xenophage has always been an excellent choice here. You do not want to use a weapon with explosive rounds or ricochet rounds or anything with multiple projectiles. Hitting the wrong fuse on accident will cause a wipe.
The fireteam splits into 3 teams. Two are assigned to light side, two are assigned to dark side. One is scanner. One is operator. Operator picks up the buff from the light side augment terminal to begin the encounter.
Scanner buff drops on dark side. Scanner will read the first two panels on dark side and call for operator to pass them through. Operator opens the door in the back, passing scanner to the other side, and goes down to the basement to begin shooting the panels. Scanner reads out the last two panels.
The other 4 guardians are focusing on clearing enemies, especially the Servitor. Servitors turn off access to the augment machines in every encounter. There will be one Overload champion on each side.
Operator puts their augment into the terminal. Backup operator picks up. Scanner deposits their augment. Downstairs Guardian picks it up and begins call-outs for DPS.
For the operator-turned-scanner in the basement, the call-outs are made by looking at the mini fuses up high on the wall that the augment terminal is attached to.
Callouts: Dark left, dark middle, dark right OR light left, light middle, light right.
Fuses are shot until all 6 are down or time runs out. If time runs out, scanner picks up their augment and begins again on dark side. Operator passes them through and then opens the basement to release the first operator, who will then go to whatever side the backup operator was on (light or dark). Rinse and repeat the encounter until all fuses are down.
Note on augments: Two augments are introduced in this encounter, scanner and operator. Scanner can always see what needs to be done (which panels need to be shot, in this example) and Operator can always interact (like shooting the panels).
Atraks-1:

The goal here is to damage and kill the correct Atraks replicant, which is done in waves.
The team is split between the ground level (the Crypt) and space. Ground team has a scanner and two runners, Space has an operator, a scanner, and a runner. Scanner and runner will go into space via the pods immediately at the start of the encounter. The operator stays downstairs to pick up the augment first.
To begin the encounter, touch the purple ball of energy at the front of the room. There will be 4 replicants of Atraks in the Crypt and 4 in Space. Teams will kill their enemies, focusing on getting servitors down quickly. Operator buff drops downstairs when servitors come out. Scanner buff drops upstairs when servitors come out. Everyone should keep an eye out for these augments and call it when they’re spotted so the buff holder can pick it up quickly.
The Space team will leave one servitor alive, at low health, until the Scanner calls out to take it down and begin the Extinction Protocol that begins damage phase. Scanner will see one of the replicants glowing yellow and call it out, then count down damage. Damage must be done at the same time as there are only a few seconds to attack. When damage is done, a runner picks up the energy ball and follows the directions of the operator into an airlock.
The energy ball dropped by the replicant has a timer that begins as soon as it drops. This is around 40 seconds. It must be picked up immediately to get the maximum amount of time, but if time is running low before the runner can get to an airlock, operator can shoot the ball off of their head and reset the timer. Failing to pick up the ball or letting it explode while still being on a guardian will cause the encounter to wipe.
Meanwhile, scanner passes the buff to the Crypt team so they can repeat the same encounter. A runner will then pick up the energy ball and bring it up via the space pods.
Final stand begins once Atraks reaches the last percentage of her health, as marked on her health bar. All 8 replicants will appear up in Space and the Crypt team should move upstairs when the call-out is made (preferably before hitting final stand). The Space scanner will call out which replicant to attack. Damage must be complete within 3 rotations or else the encounter wipes.
Complete the encounter, do the jumping puzzle, get the secret chest.
Disarmament/Chaos Room:

The goal here is to survive the chaos. There will be 6 rounds of depositing 2 nuclear cores into the bins at the front of the room.
Three vandals will drop each augment: Scanner, Operator, and Suppressor. Suppressor, in this encounter and the next, unlocks the bomb deposit bins.
- Scanner: Assess the bins and call out which 2 are glowing yellow (or 3 bins, if operator did not shoot a panel). Call outs are L1, R1, L2, R2 (the 2’s are closest to the boss platform).
- Operator: Shoot a panel to disable the third bomb from dropping
- Suppressor: Go to each of the 3 orange and white drones and shoot the boss at each location. This stuns Taniks and allows bomb runners to deposit their bombs.
Eventually a security alarm will sound and all 3 roles begin their work while other 3 folks babysit the nuclear cores spawning in
Once all cores are deposited, an augment will be deactivated at this time. Call it out (ex. Operator is deactivated!) and put the augment in the terminal so another person can pick it up
Rinse and repeat until the final round, then stand in the middle of the room to drop down to the lower section and run down the hallway
Taniks, the Abomination:

Note: we do the 4 core strat (also known as challenge) specifically, which negates the need for the scanner role. We pick it up anyway so that 3/3 augments are active to be disarmed later
People are divided into 3 teams of 2. Two stay at Spawn, two go left to Blue, and two go right to Orange. 3 people run augment roles, 4 people (including scanner) is on core duty. Bomb runners will assign numbers 1-4 to themselves.
Start the fight by shooting or approaching the trash pile in the middle. Taniks appears!
Clear ads, bring captains down quickly to get augments to drop.
Taniks moves into position at one of the 3 areas. He will rain down columns of purple light – move out of those areas or get killed. Shoot his 4 thrusters to drop 4 cores (thundercrash works great, two people running Gjally too)
Once all 4 cores are on the ground, core grabbers nab them and start running to the bins. Bin numbering begins to the left of where Taniks just was. You will never deposit bombs at his current location.
The way we assign bins is numbered 1-4 and is always clockwise from Tanik’s location. Ex: If Taniks is at spawn, the first bin is the left bin of blue, and 2 is to the right, 3 is left bin of orange, 4 is right bin of orange
The operator scans the horizon for bubbled guardians. Two guardians will end up trapped in a purple bubble during this time.
The suppressor waits until the core carriers have picked up cores. They run to each drone in the area that Taniks is in and stands under the drone and shoots Taniks (always 3 drones).
Right before damage phase begins an augment should deactivate. Put it in the terminal and pick it up after damage phase if needed.
Once all cores are deposited, damage phase begins. Typically we have all guardians line up close to spawn and clear ads while waiting.
Taniks goes to the center of the map; wait until he summons 2 circles of debris to fly around him. Jump into the center of the two debris circles and start laying into him. Wells are dropped in this location. Taniks will bop you out twice, jump back in and resume.
Note: Thundercrash tends to fly right through him. Titans should restrain themselves.
Rinse and repeat unless you go to final stand
For Final Stand, Taniks will teleport to each of the locations and is damageable. Kill him quickly, otherwise he’ll wipe you after 6 teleports.
FAQs
Is it possible to solo the Deep Stone Crypt raid? ›

What do you need for the Deep Stone Crypt raid? ›Players should be at least 1230 power to do this raid. Make sure you have any of these weapons: Cloudstrike, The Lament, Falling Guillotine, Beyond Light Shotguns, Xenophage, Divinity, and/or Anarchy.
Is the Deep Stone Crypt raid hard? ›Encounters in this raid will be easy to deal with above 1300 light as the raid is not difficult in terms of enemies and combat. Rather, Deep Stone Crypt is more about puzzles and raid mechanics.

- 4 Prophecy.
- 3 Spire Of The Watcher.
- 2 Grasp Of Avarice.
- 1 Hardest: Duality.
The recommended power level for the Raid is only 1230, though, so do not worry about getting to the hard cap for the sake of the Raid alone... though the higher your level, the easier you will find each encounter in the Deep Stone Crypt.

What is the shortest Destiny 2 raid? ›The new Destiny 2 Lightfall raid, Root of Nightmares, was cleared for the first time just two and a half hours after it launched.

Can you solo a 20000 CP raid? ›Yes, with 20 attackers it will be over quickly. In fact it takes the same time as one attacker against a defender of 1/20 the CP of the boss. So for a 20000 CP boss it would be like attacking a 1000 CP Pokemon on your own.
