Destiny 2 The Ghosts – Breaking the Hive Symbols

Nearing the end of the quest, you’ll need to break a few Hive Symbols by locating the Scorn captains hidden within. Here is how to do that:

  1. Travel down each corridor with a Hive symbol over it. Clear out the Scorn in each one and destroy the crystal. There are three in total.
  2. Once all three crystals are destroyed, break the crystal in the center of the room and the big Scorn will eventually leave.
  3. Collect your treasure and hop down the hole.
  4. Use the waypoints, Hive Membrane, and Deepsight to get to the next section.
  5. Drop down the next hole and place the rally banner. Start the fight with Brutiks, Lightbane.

In order to kill Brutiks, Lightbane, you need to kill the captain and break the crystal.
Once you have damaged Brutiks, you’ll need to go kill each captain guarding their crystal down the corridors with Hive symbols. You’ll need to do this twice in order to kill Brutiks, Lightbane. Use the Glaive to take the captains out fast.
