How to Find the NES006 Sample and Summon Secret Bosses in Destiny 2
Finding the final NES006 sample for Failsafe in Destiny 2 can be tricky, but it’s a rewarding task that unlocks new content and opportunities for loot. Here’s a detailed guide on how to get the Proximity Sensor, locate the NES006 sample, complete the associated quest, and summon secret bosses in Battlegrounds: Echoes activities.
Step 1: Get the Proximity Sensor Alert
- Visit Failsafe in the HELM: Head to Failsafe and enter the Research Bays menu.
- Pick Up the Proximity Sensor Alert: Select the Proximity Sensor Alert item on the right side of the menu. This item will help you track the NES006 sample.
Step 2: Find the NES006 Sample
The NES006 sample can be found in any of the three Battlegrounds: Echoes activities. The Proximity Sensor bar will appear on the left side of the screen and a beeping noise will indicate proximity to the sample.
Locations:
- Delve: After dropping into the room with the Planetary Piston, look to the right to find the sample on a rock.
- Conduit: In the long cavernous room with a white Vex milk river, find the sample halfway down on the right just before crossing the pool.
- Core: In the room with the rally banner before the final boss, dodge the four spinning lasers and look to the left to find the sample.
Step 3: Complete the Specimen ID: NES006 Quest
Once you have the sample, return to Failsafe to start the Specimen ID: NES006 quest. Follow these steps to complete the quest:
- Defeat Combatants with Sidearms and Auto Rifles
- Suggested weapon: Khvostov.
- Defeat Combatants with Solar or Arc Damage
- Suggested weapons: Incandescent or Voltshot weapons.
- Generate Orbs of Power
- Equip Harmonic Siphon on your helmet, Heavy Handed, and Firepower on your arms for extra orb generation.
Step 4: Optimize Your Farming
Choose an activity with high enemy density:
- Shuro Chi in the Last Wish raid: If you don’t mind enter the checkpoint code.
- Onslaught activity in Vanguard: For easier access.
- Gambit or Crucible: For bonus progress on orb generation. Private Crucible matches with friends can speed up the process.
Step 5: Claim Your Reward
Once you complete the quest steps, return to Failsafe in the HELM to claim the Assimilated Torch Hammer. This item allows you to summon Assimilated Demolishers in Battlegrounds: Echoes activities.
Step 6: Summon and Defeat Assimilated Demolishers
Use the Assimilated Torch Hammer to summon special bosses at specific Vex gates in Battlegrounds: Echoes activities.
Gate Locations:
- Delve: In the cave section with Vex milk pools after the Planetary Piston, find the gate in a room with a fallen slow mine and greenery.
- Conduit: Near the Planetary Piston in the aqueduct section, find the gate around the corner to the right.
- Core: Look for platforms to the right while jumping towards the tower structure leading to the final boss.
Step 7: Summon World Bosses on Nessus
By defeating the Assimilated Demolishers and completing the activity, you have a chance to get an Assimilated Beacon. Head to Watcher’s Grave on Nessus and use this item at a special Vex conflux near the giant Cabal land tank to summon three powerful world bosses.
Tips for Defeating World Bosses:
- Time Limit: You have five minutes to defeat them.
- Rewards: Defeating these bosses can yield rare 400g purple samples needed for seasonal triumphs.
By following these steps, you can efficiently find the NES006 sample, complete the quest, and unlock additional content and rewards in Destiny 2.
