For this week in Destiny 2, from January 14th until January 20th, Sunless Cell is the featured GM activity. Completing the activity with a B grade or higher will reward players with Horror’s Least. Once completed, Horror’s Least will drop pre-masterworked with the Accelerated Assault Origin Trait.

The Grandmaster Vanguard Alert version of Sunless Cell in Destiny 2 has all three champion types. That will restrict your builds for this activity. Take each room in this activity as slowly as possible. Be wary as soon as you load into the activity. There are a handful of Hive enemies surrounding you, including an Unstoppable Ogre. Keep progressing through, while taking each enemy out as carefully as possible.

In the Founts, you will need to stay vigilant. There is not an abundance of cover, and the Eyes of Terror surround you. Ensure that you keep your stacks as low as possible. Prioritize the Taken Wizards to remove the eyes and open up more space in the area. Continue to clear out the room.

The open area will present a dangerous challenge. While there is not a horde of enemies, each one can threaten your life. Utilize your long-range options to kill each enemy. Focus on one blight at a time. Be wary of the enemies that spawn after you break a blight. Watch out for the Taken waves as well; otherwise, you will die.

The room with the Subjugator is a terrifying prospect. Besides a handful of rocks, your cover is limited. The Eye of Terror and Subjugator will present a significant threat. Take out all the enemies first and then focus on the boss. More enemies will continue to spawn, including an Ogre at the end.

After that is the Shrieker room, where you must prioritize killing the Shriekers first. If enemies start to swarm you, kill them first before the Shriekers. From there, kill one of the boss enemies to unlock the door.

The bridge will become scary, especially with the Husks and Barrier Grims. Try to ensure you kill the Husks with critical hits to prevent the explosions from their chest.

The final boss room is not a fun place. There is no cover, and enemies spawn around. Cursed Thralls and Champions spawn that you must keep an eye on. There are also Wizards with Eyes of Terror, which you should kill immediately to get rid of the eyes. Once you have killed all of the enemies, you can deal damage to the boss.

Destiny 2 Loadout Recommendations

Ensure that at least one person has a weapon or abilities to stun all champion types. Ideally, you have two players for each type. If one player dies, you might struggle to deal with a champion type. Roaming Supers are ideal to heal cler through the majority of enemies. That will give you more time to focus on the enemies with more health.

Any Hunter build that plays around Invisibility and Spirit of Inmost Light will help in this activity. The invisibility will ensure that you can move around freely. Getaway Artist is the ideal option for Warlocks to help deal with all the enemy spawns and keep you alive. Lastly, Titans can run Actium War Rig on Void.

I am a gaming fanatic from little old South Africa. I have had a passion for gaming and writing from a young age. My early favorites were Age of Empires, FIFA and Need for Speed games. As I grew older I moved into more competitive gaming, focusing on Overwatch, League of Legends and Teamfight Tactics. I also sink way too many hours into Destiny 2!
