Trophies from the Pale Heart

Claim path rewards from the Pale Heart Pathfinder

Once you’ve unlocked The Pale Heart as a regular Destiny 2 Destination, a Pathfinder icon will appear in the center of the map. Each week, you must complete various tasks in the Pathfinder to form a path that leads to the path completion award of Powerful Gear, Ergo Sum, Challenger XP, and Ghost Reputation.

It isn’t clear how many path completion rewards you need to earn the Pale Heart Pathfinder Triumph, but it’s going to be a lot. While the Path Reward naturally resets each week, you can manually reset the board for 30,000 Glimmer to earn multiple Path Rewards weekly.

Lighting the Future

The Lighting the Future Triumph requires you to “reflect upon your journey and look forward to a hopeful future.” This is done by completing The Final Shape Campaign and Excision Activity, then returning to the Pale Heart.

Inseparable

Ghost Rank Reset Destiny 2

The Inseparable Triumph is earned by resetting Ghost’s Vendor reputation three times. This means reaching Rank 16 and redeeming the Reset Rank Rank Reward thrice.

Reputation with Ghost is earned through the following methods:

  • Pathfinder objectives
  • Pathfinder completion reward
  • Overthrow
  • Cysts
  • Pale Heart Lost Sectors
  • Pale Heart chests
  • Feathers of Light

Synchronicity

The Synchronicity Triumph is earned by unlocking everything for your Class’s Prismatic subclass. Every Aspect, every Fragment, and every ability.

All Prismatic Aspects, abilities, and Supers are naturally unlocked through The Final Shape’s Campaign and the post-campaign quests Found in the Dark and Lost in the Light.

While a few Primatic Fragments are unlocked through the Campaign automatically, the rest are found in Prismatic Chests hidden throughout The Pale Hart and Campaign.

Blessed

Travelers Blessings

Traveler’s Blessings are “Destination mods” that provide buffs and bonuses while in The Pale Heart. To earn the Blessed Triumph, you need to obtain all 25 Blessings once.

You can obtain Blessings through various Pale Heart activities, with a daily guaranteed Blessing from Lost Sectors and Overthrow. If you’re looking to farm Blessings, then Overthrow is definitely your best bet.

Going Fast

There are six Cyst Missions in the Pale Heart, each tied to Micah-10’s Alone in the Dark questline. Complete all six Cyst Missions in under four minutes to earn the Going Fast Triumph.

Flock Together

The Flock Together Triumph is earned by collecting all fifty five Feathers of Light hidden throughout the Pale Heart. Finding them all takes true dedication, but thankfully, you have our guide to help you out the whole way through.

Paracausal Geometries

Once the Alone in the Dark post-Campaign mission has been completed, Paranormal Activities will appear on the Pale Heart’s map. The Paracausal Geometries Triumph requires you to complete all eleven Paracusal Geometries found in areas marked with the “Paranormal Activity” icon.

When arriving at a Paranormal Activity, commune with the Light and look for two cubes; one Light (blue) and one Dark (red). Shoot the Light cube with Light damage (Arc, Solar, Void) and the Dark cube with Dark damage (Strand, Stasis) to destroy the Paracusal Geometry.

Fool Me Once…

Destiny 2 Dual Destiny Unlock Mission

The Fool Me Once… Triumph is earned by completing the Dual Destiny mission, which unlocks the Exotic Class Item for your character. This mission has the unusual feature of requiring two players and is unlocked by defeating Secret-Keepers that appear at the end of Overthrows in all three zones.

Check out our full Dual Destiny walkthrough for a step-by-step guide to unlocking and completing the Mission. Don’t forget to bring a friend!

Shape of Finality

Grandmaster Excision Activity Destiny 2

The final and arguably most difficult Triumph for the Transcendent Seal is Shape of Finality. This requires you to complete Excision on Grandmaster difficulty, which has a recommended Power Cap of 2020.

To launch Excision on Grandmaster difficulty, select it from the Pale Heart Destination, all the way to the right. You must complete The Final Shape Campaign and Excision on Narrative mode before you can change its difficulty to Grandmaster.

Grandmaster Excision features Barrier, Overload, and Unstoppable Champions, and wiping will return the entire Fireteam to orbit. Make sure you’re as prepared as possible, and don’t run into the beams. I know you did it on the first go; we’re all guilty.

Don’t forget to collect every Regional Chest in the Pale Heart to earn some easy rewards and pull you one step closer to the Exotic Khvostov 7G-0X — a variant of the very first weapon given to players in Destiny.
