Destiny 2: Every Hive Crystal in Will of the Thousands Strike for Lumina

When Bungie announced Season of Opulence, they just teased that there will be a new exotic quest in Destiny 2 that will be available with this season. Little that we know, it was another exotic hand cannon (Bungie please). Later in the gameplay calender, Bungie actually revealed that quest name for this weapon which is called Lumina. The actual exotic hand cannon is called Rose which is according to the leaks and data-mined files. One of the steps is to destroy every Hive Crystal in a strike.

In order to start the questline for this exotic hand cannon, you’ll need to go back to EDZ (European Dead Zone) and head back to where you’ve started your Thorn quest (since these two weapons are related to each other). After you’ve acquired the quest, you now need to defeat multiple enemies without reloading your weapon. Pretty straight-forward.

Destiny 2 Hive Crystals Lumina

After completing this step, you need to complete activities with Rose equipped (Crucible, Gambit, Strikes, etc). After that, you need to destroy every Hive Crystal in Will of the Thousands strike and defeat Xol, Will of the Thousands. Location of Hive Crystals are given below:

Hive Crystals in Will of the Thousands

There are a total of 47 hive crystals in Will of the Thousands strike that you need to destroy. There are 5 locations you are going to find these crystals throughout the strike.

  1. Dynamo Approach
    This is the started point of the strike where you enter the icy-cave. In this location, there are 8 Hive Crystals you need to destroy.
  2. Alton Dynamo
    Right after you exit that icy-cave, you’ll enter Alton Dynamo. In this location, you’ll find 9 Hive Crystals. Most of them are just beside the pillars in this area.
  3. Cave
    This part of the strike doesn’t have a name. This cave, in particular, involves huge chunks of Ice. Here, you’ll need to destroy a total of 9 Hive Crystals again.
  4. Alton Dynamo (Valkyrie Forge)
    If you’re wondering, this is not the same area as the first one. It’s the room where you need to forge the Valkyrie. In this room, you’ll find 10 Crystals that you need to destroy.
  5. Xol, Will of the Thousands
    And finally, at the boss encounter, there are a total of 11 Crystals found. The exact location of every Hive Crystal can be found in the video below:
