All steps to unlock Microcosm
What do i have to do? Before you start the quest, you should have completed the campaign of “The Final Shape” and the Exo quest “Called Heroes”. It is important that you have fully unlocked access to the Pale Heart so that Micah-10 can give you her recovery quests.
You will receive the recovery quests if you complete them one after the other. If you have access to the patrol zones, you must follow these steps:
Important information about the quest “Recovery: Emerging”
The missions are tough and require a fireteam. Additionally, individual phases have “dark zones” that limit your revivals. So equip yourself with your best gear and find a squad.
All quests are easy to find and complete because you can select them in the menu under “Quests”. This will show you waypoints that will lead you to the important places. So mark your quests before you start so that you always know where to go.
How good is the weapon? The rifle is worth the effort. Especially in more difficult activities like nightfall or raids where equal damage types are important, you can ignore the elements with Microcosm. Every shield element from every faction is burned with the rifle. In addition, you deal massive damage if your ultimate is used up.
The weapon is therefore a strong alternative for all Guardians who do not want to use the Arbalest to specifically disable the shields. Have you already managed to get the weapon or are the missions too difficult for you? Let us know in the comments.
