Playing this raid for the first time is like trying to learn the rules of bridge by playing in a pro tournament, while on the phone with 5 friends who are all yelling at you, while a SWAT team is raiding the building.
Man I want these raids back. Going back to watch the guides for all the leviathan raids. They were so cool. Miss that feeling when this raid first dropped. It was so cool.
Just a reference point for anyone studying this or getting a refresher. Don't want to see the whole thing? Well problem solved. 4:13 Bath House 9:03 Pleasure Gardens 18:10 Gauntlet 25:00 Ventilator Key 26:43 Big Daddy Calus
I entered this raid blind on New Light with 3 friends, took me about 50 minutes just to do the first bit with the flags that can get stolen, was so happy when we finished it, little did we know..
Same story here! Went in as a group of 4 thinking it would be easy as it was "Recommended Power 750" and we were well above that. Didn't manage. Decided to get in a fifth random player, didn´t manage. Decided finally to get a sixth random player, and only then after a bunch of tries did we manage to get the gate open towards the gardens. The infighting put an end to our raid attempt lmao.
Rest In Peace Leviathan….. your beautiful golden shaders, creations of unforgettable memories, awesome boss designs and fantastic loot will forever remain within a special place in my heart.
i havent played D2 since launch. ive recently returned and unfortunately heard of the DCV and the whole.. cycling content.. but has Leviathan come back at all?
It has Come back as a sort of patrol kind of thing, It's mostly used for farming Opulent weapons now, But you still can basically explore the leviathan again.
Love this, just one tip. *DO NOT* kill the war beasts in round 1 if you're a team thats unfamiliar. The more that die, the more reckless they become. What you want to to do is weaken them to the point they're nearly dead. Ideally by the 3rd chance you'll be able to kill them all at the same time. From experience the more dogs you kill, the less time you have so be careful.
Jabber Walkie never had a chance to try it to be honest. Never had a competent enough raid team (it was thrown together in lfg) so i used the method i stated to get them past it, but yeah you're right.
This is what we did too. We managed to get a 48 stack and we each had a beast that we were responsible for and we had no problem getting them all down to less than one bar left after the first one.
I am really confused right now lol. You guys are saying that the dogs get more reckless when they die and kackis said that every round they get more reckless, which one?! If they get more reckless when they die, then a team should be just weakening them all to below one bar. And if they get more reckless every round u just need to get the 48 and kill as many as possible. As u see these are very different ways of doing this stage...
I dont play D2 anymore, but this raid was one of the most memorable raids i've done in aby video game. Back then D2 went through a period of funny nicknames, mine was 2 calus 1 cup
*Steps for Entrance:* Split into defense and attack teams. Defense team: Defend the flags from the Cabal. Don't let the liberator get near the flag, go punch the councillor as soon as they spawn. Strike team: Find a flag, kill all the Cabal and a Bearer will spawn. Kill it and take its flag, then go to the next flag and repeat. *Steps for Baths:* There's two plates on each side and a buff called "psionic protection" which holds back a DoT effect. The protection runs out at about 1 per second, and you'll take damage until you die when it's fully gone, but you can refresh it in the middle. Split into 2 teams of 3 and put both teams on different sides. Person one and two stand on a plate while the third waits to be called upon. When person one's protection buff gets to about 20, they leave their plate to refresh their buff, and are immediately replaced by the third person, who didn't have a plate, to stop the plate losing progress. Person one refreshes his buff, and immediately goes to replace person two, who's probably pretty low by now. Repeat as much as necessary, killing ads along the way, until the plates are finished. You'll hear a "ding" effect and the chains still stop moving when this happens. Now everybody goes to the middle and stands on the plate, which gives the "strength of will" buff. This buff allows you to damage the purple canisters hanging from the ceiling, and destroying all 12 completes the encounter.
Jesus, I haven't played the game but the difficulty spike between the base game and this is like having a Water fight to having to perform Nuclear Fusion.. while on fire in 2 minutes with a Stick and a rock
Me: alright lets see whos active for rai- *42 friends playing fortnite and 2 others playing the 2k19 prelude* edit: so I actually bought the forsaken complete collection and I already finished all campaigns, reached level 50 and power lvl 503 but I still havent done any raids lol.
@KackisHD 2 years later and this guide is still helping me, got some new friends who want to run all the old raids in order. Been a while so I needed a refresher. Thank your for everything you've done for us guardians over the years you've made my life much easier!
If the Destiny community wasn't such a steaming pile of ass this raid wouldn't be so bad. LFG is a complete disaster zone, there's no one willing to help at all. Everyone is so quick to blame the guy next to them... horrible experiences trying to run this raid (with LFG). Running with a good team is fun. I remember running the vault of glass, people were totally willing to Sherpa in LFG. I Sherpa'd tons of people through, I loved helping someone get a Fatebringer/Atheons Epilogue etc. NO ONE does that anymore with this raid. Every post is NEED RAID DONE FAST. NO PEOPLE UNDER 330. IF YOU SUCK YOU'LL BE KICKED. KNOW EXACTLY WHAT TO DO. How is anyone supposed to learn?
Jason Rooster exact problem I’m having. Haven’t gotten to do the raid because nobody is willing to let anyone on who hasn’t done it. I’ve done all the raids from D1 so i learn fast but nobody will let me join
Good thing you don't have to do this shit raid to reach max level, got 2 characters 335 without doing the raid once. I'd like to attempt it though but like everyone said nobody wants to help anyone new to the raid
The whole thing is such a fucking mess, bungie really doesnt deserve the cash people put out for it. I had no idea what the raid was until this video but im putting the game down because i cant even fathom why they thought in a million years this could be anything even close to a good idea. Why make the rest of the game so easy just to gimmic the shit out of the end game content under the guise of making things "challenging"
Most People: "Oh what's that I hear, somebody crying for help? Let me complain into my microphone about how bad you are, but clearly your not, you just need help, without giving it second thought."
its official the sweeper bot was angry at his job of sweeping so in revenge he told the cabal how to shut down the satellites causing the sneak attack at the beginning of the game that took down the last city that is the background lore for destiny 2
Such a shame too... I never really got invested in D2 so I never completed most of the vaulted content. I got back into it about 2 weeks ago and I'm realizing that I missed a lot of cool stuff just because I didn't know it wouldn't be there for much longer. I understand the reasons behind it but I really hate it when developers vault things and make things limited time (screw the season system). Same thing happened with D1. I never even got to do Trials of Osiris because I didn't think they'd remove it. So much for all of that gear.
I've only just started playing Destiny 2 properly a couple of days back. Started this raid last night, wish I had seen this prior. 2 hours in and still not done. We've done bath house, and the one with dogs and Crystals. Going to continue our checkpoint tonight. We're at the one with platforms and arrows where people have to carry orbs or something and shoot the arrows. It's been so fun. At no point during the two hours have we been bored or frustrated. Watching this Is helping me understand so much better.
People say these guides are too long, I find them extremely helpful. Other guides just tell you the mechanics immediately and you have no idea what is happening. This guide actually explains strategies on how to beat the different encounters and how to actually beat the raid.
Not even joking when I haven't done a raid in a while I literally watch these videos as a refresher. The problem nowadays is no one plays with people who don't know how to do the raids therefore your videos are the only way really to learn the raids.
At the very beginning of the raid there is a way to get into the bowels of the ship. When you spawn there is a room to the right, pull all 6 levers and it opens a room under the main bridge. Pull those levers in a sequence and it opens up the area you see at around 26:00 ( where the canals with the pipes are ) this will allow you to use your keys on the chests without having to beat each section.
Ahh, such good memories - Autumn / fall 2017, and the magnificent leviathan is with us! Best raid ever! Loved the lore, the look, the opulent feel to the whole thing- and the ending is awesome!!
Pleasure Gardens - Our raid team decided to assign a war beast to each person. we did about 1/2 to 3/4 damage to each war beast in the first go round and kill them off in the second phase. We struggled after killing one or two because they become enraged faster when there are fewer war beasts on the map. just a thought for you out there that aren't able to get to the spores fast enough.
@@Z0mbieHunterMan Pointless, uh, no. You can pick them up and give them to people who aren't fortunate enough to know competent people for completing raids.
Tried doing this raid by myself because I didn't get anyone to help. I wasted like 3 hours thinking I was doing something wrong and then came to this video. Thank you so much!🙏🙏🙏
I played every raid in destiny and always had fun. I watched 16 min of this raid, after seeing all the mechanics just in that time. I'm pretty confident I will not be wasting time in this one good vid though
Totally agree..... VoG is by far one of the most popular raids within Destiny for it's simpler mechanisms.....even with the other raids, people have said they don't like the raids so mechanically sweaty, it was a strongly shared opinion, yet Bungie topped it off with this raid..... I really hope the first DLC brings an arena mode like Prison of Elders instead of a raid. I think Bungie forgets that Destiny is a FPS....
This popped up on my reccomended, this was my first raid and this video was PERFECT and helped me and my friends a bunch. Great memories and great videos. Thank you💯
Coming from an Overwatch player that newly bought Destiny 2: Forsaken with Annual Pass, I thought Competitive Overwatch was toxic but I haven’t seen this lmao.
I used to play overwatch in a Korean server since it has the best ping for me, 120+ up to 200. The only time the overwatch competitive became toxic is just once, not just spammed me for getting tilted mid game BUT also became racist against my nationality. The only thing that made me quit that game is boredom while the pink mercy breast cancer awareness event is running.
I just started D2 but I played D1 quite a bit. My friend who’s played D2 for a while tried to explain this to me but it’s pretty complex. I’m yet to attempt this but I think the video has definately helped. Cheers mate
You did an awesome job with this video, I tried to do it solo and I had no idea what was going on. I wish the game gave us more directions, they either tell you every single move or leave you completely alone... Thanks for this video
@@MrLolliam Bungie isn't really the type of gaming company to tell you : "This is how you defeat the raid boss and instantly beat the game and also here now you can do a very good skill instantly and you just started." They're more of the gaming company to tell you : "We don't wanna make you mad, but, we don't make tutorials, are mechanics are easy to understand, raids... Not really to easy to understand, but it's still fun." I like that about Bungie :)
Looks like that 10 percent of the community that only completed destiny 1 raids is going to go down to about 5 percent. This is totally insane. No more lfg groups for this raid haha
Tim Seaburg dude that's what I'm saying they want more players to do the raid but continue to make them increasingly more difficult. Guided games isn't going to help because if even 1 player is a scrub your screwed
exactly my thoughts. I remember them stating earlier that they want to involve a lot more people in the raids, because so few players participated in D1's raids, but this is just... So far from casual players as it can be. To me this complexity looks a lot like WildStar (if any of you remember they made it a huge deal to appeal to the "hardcore players"), and look how well it turned out for them...
So basically I need to be a d1 day1 veteran of vog with an extremely sweaty team of raid veterans who I have known since day 1 in order to complete this raid. that's gonna be fun for a player who joined in year 2 that never got a permanent raid team and only has 4 freinds who play this game frequently.
You probably know now since its been 2 years but, When a new raid releases there is like a contest to see who finishes it first and those teams figure it out for the rest of us. Also if u ever go into a raid blind you figure things out surprisingly easily, just alot of trial and error/ observation of surroundings, buffs, debuffs, and shit like that.
Started playing destiny again two months ago, was a 357!! Just this week I hit 749 and I haven’t tried one raid in D2....watching this video and posting this comment in hopes someone will help a brother complete his first raid in Destiny 2! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Imma be honest i had destiny 2 since launch and I don’t even know how to do the raid mostly because it requires a hell ton of teamwork Edit: plus some people are asshats and blame you for everything
@@MrMrRubic I tried only 1 raid with a clan I'm with and thought that would be cool because I was running with the owners and they said they would teach me. Puff... explanations were totally messed up, they just wanted to boss me and got pissed every time I said I didn't get it or died. I hate these kinda "pro players" thing.
It's actually not that easy, why are you trying to trick people into thinking it is? One brain cell? I fuckin lose a 100 brain cells every 5 minutes with the toxic people this game shits out towards me.
I personally love the raid, though my whole group hates it. We are currently on the last boss and after dying to multiple glitches and other bullsh*t decided to do it tomorrow. Got him down to 1/5th before wiping :/
TheDestroyerOfWorldss AndOtherVariousThings kings fall is the best for me because i actually gave a fuck for what i was doing, i knew who oryx was, i knew what he had done, and i had motives to want to explode him, not just a giant praetorian, i'm not saying that VoG isn't fun or interesting lore wise, fuck no, for me it is the 2nd best, but for me kings fall has much more of an epic scale, through its mechanics, bosses (mainly oryx, obviously) and the lore, that made me care at what I was doing
All I'm hearing about this raid is, "Don't do this or you all die." "Do this and you all die." "Kill this one or you all die" "Stand here or you all die." "Go there or you all die." "Sometimes you all just die for no reason..." Welp... Fuck this raid...
You say it in a funny way, but it's so true. I like Destiny, but they really didn't do a great job allowing viable alternative strategies. Do you enjoy sniping things from a distance and high mobility and smart positioning? Well fuck you, you'll stand on this plate killing the stuff that spawns right in your face, and you won't move until your teammate comes to relieve you of your duties. Then you'll hurry your ass back and stand there again.
Mr. 603 it really just seems like "my way or the highway" style of level design. I prefer it when games give me freedom to finish a level how I want, not do a specific set of actions or I lose.
worst part is this is the first raid in destiny existence where failing to revive someone = wipe. not because u needed the dead players, but because it wipes you if someone doesnt get revived in 20 seconds.
The last phase has a part where 3 people need to shoot psions and pretty much every little thing gets them killed. Its really annoying. What i dont like about this raid is the fact that its so picky with everything. I mean There is so little fighint on it. 80% of the raid is basically little details killing you. Not actual enemies. Feels weird.
I know it's more of a mindset but it doesn't matter though. The game caps your power just a little above the recommended one, so even if you're power 670, the game will treat you as a 300ish light player when you're there.

Love this, just one tip. *DO NOT* kill the war beasts in round 1 if you're a team thats unfamiliar. The more that die, the more reckless they become. What you want to to do is weaken them to the point they're nearly dead. Ideally by the 3rd chance you'll be able to kill them all at the same time. From experience the more dogs you kill, the less time you have so be careful.
Nathan M best strategy is to get 36x and everyone kill one dog solo.
Jabber Walkie never had a chance to try it to be honest. Never had a competent enough raid team (it was thrown together in lfg) so i used the method i stated to get them past it, but yeah you're right.
we did 48x and took one dog each. swords did massive damage. as in, we killed all of them in one round.
This is what we did too. We managed to get a 48 stack and we each had a beast that we were responsible for and we had no problem getting them all down to less than one bar left after the first one.
I am really confused right now lol. You guys are saying that the dogs get more reckless when they die and kackis said that every round they get more reckless, which one?!
If they get more reckless when they die, then a team should be just weakening them all to below one bar. And if they get more reckless every round u just need to get the 48 and kill as many as possible. As u see these are very different ways of doing this stage...

*Steps for Entrance:*
Split into defense and attack teams.
Defense team:
Defend the flags from the Cabal. Don't let the liberator get near the flag, go punch the councillor as soon as they spawn.
Strike team:
Find a flag, kill all the Cabal and a Bearer will spawn. Kill it and take its flag, then go to the next flag and repeat.
*Steps for Baths:*
There's two plates on each side and a buff called "psionic protection" which holds back a DoT effect. The protection runs out at about 1 per second, and you'll take damage until you die when it's fully gone, but you can refresh it in the middle.
Split into 2 teams of 3 and put both teams on different sides. Person one and two stand on a plate while the third waits to be called upon. When person one's protection buff gets to about 20, they leave their plate to refresh their buff, and are immediately replaced by the third person, who didn't have a plate, to stop the plate losing progress. Person one refreshes his buff, and immediately goes to replace person two, who's probably pretty low by now. Repeat as much as necessary, killing ads along the way, until the plates are finished. You'll hear a "ding" effect and the chains still stop moving when this happens.
Now everybody goes to the middle and stands on the plate, which gives the "strength of will" buff. This buff allows you to damage the purple canisters hanging from the ceiling, and destroying all 12 completes the encounter.

Not even joking when I haven't done a raid in a while I literally watch these videos as a refresher. The problem nowadays is no one plays with people who don't know how to do the raids therefore your videos are the only way really to learn the raids.
only took me 2 years to finally get my friends to raid with me lmfao
So there is hope for me xd
Me too. 2 years of destiny and I just did my 2nd raid hahaha.
Same, but then they dont hear the rules
Lol, I've played destiny since year 1 on d1, and I've still never completed a raid in either game
I'm just going to live vicariously through you in this raid just to say "I did it!"
OK now I just have to watch this 20 more times until I have memorized it ;)
Yea trust me if you watch them over and over you will remember it good I forgot the steps for the raid been a while
My dumb a** was trying to do this by myself...died like 5 times and spent an hour on the raid
Leo Flaskay dam same I was wondering why it was so hard
You guy's wanna do it with me

At the very beginning of the raid there is a way to get into the bowels of the ship. When you spawn there is a room to the right, pull all 6 levers and it opens a room under the main bridge. Pull those levers in a sequence and it opens up the area you see at around 26:00 ( where the canals with the pipes are ) this will allow you to use your keys on the chests without having to beat each section.
CopperTop level order is 1 5 3 2 4 6
Very clear and concise, a must watch for LFG groups or any group attempting it for the first time, will save people a lot of grief! Excellent!
Ahh, such good memories - Autumn / fall 2017, and the magnificent leviathan is with us! Best raid ever! Loved the lore, the look, the opulent feel to the whole thing- and the ending is awesome!!
Gone but not forgotten
R.I.P Leviathan/Calus
Pleasure Gardens - Our raid team decided to assign a war beast to each person. we did about 1/2 to 3/4 damage to each war beast in the first go round and kill them off in the second phase. We struggled after killing one or two because they become enraged faster when there are fewer war beasts on the map. just a thought for you out there that aren't able to get to the spores fast enough.
thank you Kackis! im you viewer since D1. Never fails to amaze me with your channel. more power to your team my fellow guardian!
So were going to act like 20 legendary engrams didn't spawn at the end
Jeffrey Tovar they don’t light you up or anything so it would be pointless to pick them up
@@Z0mbieHunterMan
Pointless, uh, no. You can pick them up and give them to people who aren't fortunate enough to know competent people for completing raids.
Jeffrey Tovar innit alll that for fuck all
GandalfTheSilver You can’t give people shit lmao
@@unforgotten9203
Damn that really sucks.
For a game being so heavily based on RNG with gear drops, this raid is stupidly complicated.
New lights watching that " looks dope! How do we access it? Is it some kind of hidden raid or something?"
Didn't know anything about this raid before I watched this, thanks man this really helped me a lot, you earned a new sub and a like 🙂
One day into leviathan and chill and your already an expert
Vlankton only kill...
Tried doing this raid by myself because I didn't get anyone to help. I wasted like 3 hours thinking I was doing something wrong and then came to this video. Thank you so much!🙏🙏🙏
Watching this is 2019 cause I just got destiny 2. I'm pretty lait lol, but this was a big help, thank u!!
I am not new but 2019
Instructions unclear, I'm now on a one way flight to Taiwan.
Valentine Wiggin ouch
Valentine Wiggin holy shit that was amazing
My dick got stuck in controller
Could be worse places to fly too.
instructions unclear, am now trying to solo Atheon with a level 1 Khavastav
I played every raid in destiny and always had fun. I watched 16 min of this raid, after seeing all the mechanics just in that time. I'm pretty confident I will not be wasting time in this one good vid though
cody rouse just complete it once to open the raid vendor in the tower then each week do the easy/quick parts of the raid to get tokens for raid gear.
Wow you played every raid in destiny? That obviously means you opinion is more valid!
He said he doesn't want to do the raid, no need to antagonize him.
Prince Unikitty I know lol, why do people take things so personal.
Totally agree..... VoG is by far one of the most popular raids within Destiny for it's simpler mechanisms.....even with the other raids, people have said they don't like the raids so mechanically sweaty, it was a strongly shared opinion, yet Bungie topped it off with this raid..... I really hope the first DLC brings an arena mode like Prison of Elders instead of a raid. I think Bungie forgets that Destiny is a FPS....
This popped up on my reccomended, this was my first raid and this video was PERFECT and helped me and my friends a bunch. Great memories and great videos. Thank you💯
I decided to come back and watch this, i kind of miss this raid if I'm being honest. Very nostalgic for me
Thank you! This guide was a big help to me and my team!
Best raid explanation video I've seen so far. Thanks for the tutorial.
Coming from an Overwatch player that newly bought Destiny 2: Forsaken with Annual Pass, I thought Competitive Overwatch was toxic but I haven’t seen this lmao.
Bowl OfCereal same here. Overwatch is kind of in decline and I don’t want to play Fortnite so I guess I have found my new home.
Omg sameeeee
I used to play overwatch in a Korean server since it has the best ping for me, 120+ up to 200. The only time the overwatch competitive became toxic is just once, not just spammed me for getting tilted mid game BUT also became racist against my nationality. The only thing that made me quit that game is boredom while the pink mercy breast cancer awareness event is running.
Destiny is rarely toxic, overwatch is like a fucking nuclear plant
These raids will never be as awesome as the vault of glass
Happy Qban i agree i miss the old days 😭😭😭
lol nothing will beat vault of glass unless we get another vex raid which will be sick
True, other then the countless bug VoG Was the perfect raid.
oh man, I suure miss the vault of ass...
Happy Qban In my opinion VoG was the worst raid in Destiny
Me: Okay I think I got it.....
Also me 5 min later: Wait what am I doing again???
"Let me just open the video in my phone while we are inside the RAID, just a sec guys..."
Am I the only one dreading doing this raid with my braindead friends 😂

All I wanted was an exotic...
I just started D2 but I played D1 quite a bit. My friend who’s played D2 for a while tried to explain this to me but it’s pretty complex. I’m yet to attempt this but I think the video has definately helped. Cheers mate
Can i join in? I need help with this.
Ariel Cabrera yeah i also need people to do this with
@@T1ime wanna play? Ps4?
Ariel Cabrera sure, add me on psn sitysity19, we’ll discuss there
Same here my teamates explained this to me but im confused as hell
You did an awesome job with this video, I tried to do it solo and I had no idea what was going on. I wish the game gave us more directions, they either tell you every single move or leave you completely alone... Thanks for this video
Veronica Zanchi So true, its a complete joke
@@MrLolliam Bungie isn't really the type of gaming company to tell you : "This is how you defeat the raid boss and instantly beat the game and also here now you can do a very good skill instantly and you just started." They're more of the gaming company to tell you : "We don't wanna make you mad, but, we don't make tutorials, are mechanics are easy to understand, raids... Not really to easy to understand, but it's still fun." I like that about Bungie :)
Nonono, they should never add what to do in raids, then they’ll just be long ass strikes my dude
@@superkrem2012 at least they should tell you that you cant start x raid without x personsq

Looks like that 10 percent of the community that only completed destiny 1 raids is going to go down to about 5 percent. This is totally insane. No more lfg groups for this raid haha
Tim Seaburg right?
Tim Seaburg dude that's what I'm saying they want more players to do the raid but continue to make them increasingly more difficult. Guided games isn't going to help because if even 1 player is a scrub your screwed
Most of us that completed each of Destiny 1 raids over 100 times each won't even buy this failure of a game. Bungie failed again.
exactly my thoughts. I remember them stating earlier that they want to involve a lot more people in the raids, because so few players participated in D1's raids, but this is just... So far from casual players as it can be. To me this complexity looks a lot like WildStar (if any of you remember they made it a huge deal to appeal to the "hardcore players"), and look how well it turned out for them...
Its been pretty hard but awedpmely fun and worth fpe the gear
Who thought sneaking past those dogs on pleasure gardens reminded you of the Gorgons from VOG "Damn here we go again!!
i don’t normally like kackis but his raid guides are 100% the best out there
So basically I need to be a d1 day1 veteran of vog with an extremely sweaty team of raid veterans who I have known since day 1 in order to complete this raid.
that's gonna be fun for a player who joined in year 2 that never got a permanent raid team and only has 4 freinds who play this game frequently.
Connor Chapman you on PS4 or Xbox? I need people on PS4 for the raid. Add me, mxerforlife
Connor Chapman dude don't worry about it, I started destiny in year 2 and did this raid with 4 randoms
Connor Chapman I've got the same problem. It's even worse if you're a random and aren't at lvl 280, they'll kick you faster than you can blink.

32:09 based Kackis?
Yeah.... there's no way in hell I'm ever beating this.😂 I can barely get a good enough team together for the nightfall.

I literally said the same thing.
chris sosa just get the destiny app it's a fucking life saver to find people
If you're on PlayStations the communities are useful

Linked to all my clan members as well to study
+Sage Just write down the important mechanics, writing down things helps a lot when memorizing things and also how I beat WoTM
My brain has melted and now everything looks like Savathùn.
Thank you for this guide Rick Kackis, can’t wait to try this raid
How should I tell him?
@@flamesredinconito6474 no need dude, I beat it yesterday
Am I the only one who see similarities to kings fall in this raid? Similar mechanics
The whole game has similarities. :)
But the rooms in that raid look a lot like Warframe's Void.

I’m watching this for nostalgias state
ahhhhhh man i used to love this game so much...
I just did Leviathan for the first time today. Went pretty smoothly thank to your guide. Thank you!
All I'm wondering is, how did someone figure out how to do the Raid in the first place? I mean, there's no directions.
Part by part, it doesn’t seem that hard. There are way harder ones
Kai Long cries in 19 hour first last wish raid
You probably know now since its been 2 years but, When a new raid releases there is like a contest to see who finishes it first and those teams figure it out for the rest of us. Also if u ever go into a raid blind you figure things out surprisingly easily, just alot of trial and error/ observation of surroundings, buffs, debuffs, and shit like that.
man this looks like fun i cant wait to play this with my friends. its been so long since i played d2
You can’t anymore😞
@@snakoo4596 now you kinda can
@@YourMom-wi5to now you kinda cant anymore
you might be able too soon…
@@SentientMattress531 if the leak wasn't fake, yeah
Who are here for nostalgia? Because I really need that leviathan should return to destiny 2.
176 Days and it's still vaulted
Started playing destiny again two months ago, was a 357!! Just this week I hit 749 and I haven’t tried one raid in D2....watching this video and posting this comment in hopes someone will help a brother complete his first raid in Destiny 2! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Imma be honest i had destiny 2 since launch and I don’t even know how to do the raid mostly because it requires a hell ton of teamwork
Edit: plus some people are asshats and blame you for everything
And if you don't know hot to do the raid it's all your fault for not knowing (while they refuse to do anything helpful like teaching you how to do it)
@@MrMrRubic exactly everyone writes you have to have completed it how can i when nobody parties with me
@@asherlyle Kinda looking for a job thing. Experience required but not teachable haha
@@MrMrRubic I tried only 1 raid with a clan I'm with and thought that would be cool because I was running with the owners and they said they would teach me. Puff... explanations were totally messed up, they just wanted to boss me and got pissed every time I said I didn't get it or died. I hate these kinda "pro players" thing.
if you're on xbox i can teach it
As long as you have a single brain cell. This raid is easy af. The only difficulty is finding people with that single brain cell.
You want to do it with me?
I don't have friends that play this game
Since I am an Ragdoll owner I had to respond to you, never done the raid tho
It's actually not that easy, why are you trying to trick people into thinking it is? One brain cell? I fuckin lose a 100 brain cells every 5 minutes with the toxic people this game shits out towards me.
Who wanna try it
i literally did this raid for my first time and when i was at the boss 4 people left and i had to go too
Thanks for the guide. Can't wait to use this is the [DELETED]
I personally love the raid, though my whole group hates it. We are currently on the last boss and after dying to multiple glitches and other bullsh*t decided to do it tomorrow. Got him down to 1/5th before wiping :/
Ruby Rose we wiped at a speck of health , we didn't give uo we killed him 3 attempts after
This raid may not be as epic as king's fall, but by far it is the most beautiful
kings fall was shitty as fuck. vault of glass was the only good raid.
Kings fall was more challenging than VoG but VoG was way more fun
TheDestroyerOfWorldss AndOtherVariousThings kings fall is the best for me because i actually gave a fuck for what i was doing, i knew who oryx was, i knew what he had done, and i had motives to want to explode him, not just a giant praetorian, i'm not saying that VoG isn't fun or interesting lore wise, fuck no, for me it is the 2nd best, but for me kings fall has much more of an epic scale, through its mechanics, bosses (mainly oryx, obviously) and the lore, that made me care at what I was doing
The Night King Kings fall was the best. You have no taste
Kings fall aka bullet sponge gallore
All I'm hearing about this raid is,
"Don't do this or you all die." "Do this and you all die." "Kill this one or you all die"
"Stand here or you all die." "Go there or you all die." "Sometimes you all just die for no reason..."
Welp... Fuck this raid...
Mr. 603 hahaha had me deaddddd hahaha
You say it in a funny way, but it's so true. I like Destiny, but they really didn't do a great job allowing viable alternative strategies. Do you enjoy sniping things from a distance and high mobility and smart positioning? Well fuck you, you'll stand on this plate killing the stuff that spawns right in your face, and you won't move until your teammate comes to relieve you of your duties. Then you'll hurry your ass back and stand there again.
Mr. 603 it really just seems like "my way or the highway" style of level design. I prefer it when games give me freedom to finish a level how I want, not do a specific set of actions or I lose.
worst part is this is the first raid in destiny existence where failing to revive someone = wipe. not because u needed the dead players, but because it wipes you if someone doesnt get revived in 20 seconds.
The last phase has a part where 3 people need to shoot psions and pretty much every little thing gets them killed. Its really annoying. What i dont like about this raid is the fact that its so picky with everything. I mean There is so little fighint on it. 80% of the raid is basically little details killing you. Not actual enemies. Feels weird.
Aw man the good old days🥲 does anyone remember what it was like when this raid was a thing?
Half of the people here say "i cant so it, too hard" or "im by myself" and the other half is just "lmao its easy just dont be dumb"
*watches this video after getting to 670 power because have no confidence of doing this lower than that*
Lol yup ditto
I know it's more of a mindset but it doesn't matter though. The game caps your power just a little above the recommended one, so even if you're power 670, the game will treat you as a 300ish light player when you're there.
@@taesshi well that sucks.
I did it at 385
@WRLD may I ask where does the cap happen like at power 500 or something else
Liked , commented and subscribed just to show support for the sheer amount of hours you put into this video ! 👍👍👍👍
Thanks! :)
I did the same, truly man, this is a wonderful guide. Now I feel confident to at least try the raid haha
Thank you for making this, I am going to do this raid tomarrow! I had to re watch this a lot and understand! I have a lot of pressure on myself!
