It doesn’t have to be a very steep incline. Here is the fastest way to complete the Climbing the Mountaintop quest in Destiny 2: Into the Light.
Destiny 2: Fastest way to complete the Climbing the Mountaintop quest
Week 2 of Into the Light is live now in Destiny 2, meaning that there are now new openblue shield doorsin the Hall of Champions, but most importantly, new Brave weapon quests. One of those new weapons is The Mountaintop, a Breech-Loaded Grenade Launcher originally from the Forsaken DLC. you may identify this specific type ofGrenade Launcher by its use of Special Ammo, and to beat its specific quest, you will need tocomplete one of the following objectives:
Let’s get this out of the way, out of the two new quests, progressing the Climbing the Mountaintop will be considerably slower. For that same reason, I strongly recommend that youfocus on playing Onslaughtgiven the bonus progression and enemy potential enemy density. However, there are some ways you may further optimize it by doing a simple thing: picking the right map.
Play Onslaught in Mothyards
While playing in Midtown would be the logical choice given its close-quartered nature, allowing your Grenade Launcher shots to do a considerable amount of damage, whatMothyards possesses in its favor makes it the perfect locationto spam your Grenades and collect The Mountaintop:verticality and openness.
Yes, these same reasons are what makes it thebest map to play Onslaughtin and hopefully get to the 50-Wave mark, but why would it make sense for AoE damage? Well, thanks to your ability to gainhigh vantage points and obvious cues on where the enemies will spawn– you see the giant ships arriving on the map – you can easilypinpoint specific locations on where to shootyour Breech-Loaded Grenade Launchers. And given the Tower Defense nature of Onslaught in which enemies traverse through a pre-determined path, you can easilyspam your shots to continuously deliver damage, amassing kills.
I used theWitherhoardExotic Grenade Launcher – which is arguablyone of the best Exoticsin the game – to deal Blight damage to all incoming mobs. You can, however, use other Breech-Loaded Grenades Launchers like the Forbearance, Harsh Language, or Ignition Code and they will work just as well. Remember: predict enemy paths and continue spamming those Grenades!
