New Destiny 2 Vesper’s Host glitch lets players instantly complete the first encounter and snag the new legendary rewards.
Today, Bungie launched the highly anticipated Vesper’s Host dungeon in Destiny 2. Set in Europa’s orbit, this dungeon brings a fresh challenge to players and is filled with visuals similar to the Deep Stone Crypt raid. One of the dungeon’s most exciting rewards is the return of the long-awaited Ice Breaker exotic sniper rifle, along with an all-new set of legendary gear.
In addition to its challenging mechanics, Vesper’s Host kicked off Destiny 2’s first-ever dungeon race, and Contest Mode, which increases difficulty and limits power levels, made this dungeon particularly challenging.
What’s interesting is that players have already found a way to cheese an encounter, completely bypassing the mechanics using an old exploit.
Destiny 2 Vesper’s Host First Encounter Glitch
The glitch is for the first encounter of the new Vesper’s Host dungeon, where you need to deposit the Nuclear Cores. Here’s how it works: you need to time it so that you’re depositing the core and dropping it simultaneously and have a fireteam member quickly pick up the core as soon as it’s dropped.
If done correctly, you’ll deposit the core into the box while still dropping it on the ground, allowing you to use it for the next two deposit boxes. Repeat the method for the next two boxes in the middle room and it will instantly complete the encounter.
This exploit was discovered by tzIsrafel and shared by YouTuber Cheese Forever. You can check out how it works in the YouTube video below.
It’s unclear how long this glitch will remain active, but for now, players are enjoying a quick way to earn top-tier loot in record time.
The Vesper’s Host dungeon has added a new set of armor, weapons, and cosmetics to the game. If you’re looking for the complete encounter loot table, make sure to check out our guide here.
