This thread is still under construction - I'm trying my best to finish this thread in the next couple of days, but I wanted to share the status today because it's the weekend and maybe some people are still looking. I still do it all by myself, besides all the other YouTube and streaming stuff. I hope you understand that.
/e 06/18/ - Added more stuff like Khvostov 7G-0X
First, please excuse the errors in the text. I am from Germany and learned no English in school over 35 years ago (yes, I am old). Almost everything was translated by various online tools, and I'm pretty sure that the grammar and spelling are probably very poor.
The Final Shape is the latest DLC in Destiny. We got a new planet, many new secrets, a new subclass, a raid, and many other things as well. I'll try to cover some of it here. Most of the videos are my own. If you are still looking for info on Lightfall or Into the Light Update with Zero Hour / Whisper, here are the threads for it:
There are currently 21 fragments: 8 you unlock automatically during the story, 3 are hidden in the story in secret chests, and the remaining 10 fragments are hidden in small puzzles in the Pale Heart world.
Story
Facet of Courage, Facet of Dawn, Facet of Hope, Facet of Protection, Facet of Purpose, Facet of Ruin, Facet of Balance and Facet of Blessing are automatically unlocked through the story (open the prismatic chests).
In the last three story missions (Ascent / Dissent / Iconoclasm) a prismatic chest is hidden in each of the missions.
Facet of Bravery (Ascent)
Shortly after the beginning of the mission, you see a crashed airplane on your way; the path leads through a part of the plane. To the right of it, you will find another part of the plane, and the prismatic chest is hidden in it.
Facet of Devotion (Dissent)
Near the end of the mission, after the boss fight, you have to escape the area, follow the first stairs, and stay on the left side, the marker is on your right side. In the back, you will find the prismatic chest.
Facet of Sacrifice (Iconoclasm)
Near the end of the mission, where you climb up the building, you cross the room with the sliced-up statue of a warbeast, turn left there in the next room, and there is a hole in the wall above where you can enter a hidden area with the prismatic chest.
Prismatic Encounters
There are five Prismatic encounters in the Pale Heart world. These tasks are basically mini-events / puzzles where you first have to complete a small task so that the boss appears, the key for the chest drops after you have killed the boss, and you can then open the chest and get your fragment.
Facet of Mending (Overgrown Prismatic Chest in The Lost City)
For this chest, you have to find four ghosts first in The Lost City, then go to the chest location and fight against a couple of enemy waves and the boss..
[Overgrown Prismatic Chest Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wphCKPF8u8k)Facet of Grace (Elevated Prismatic Chest in The Lost City)
To obtain the key for this chest, you have to fight (in order, as in the video) three yellow bar enemies called "Gordian Weaver" then two yellow mini-bosses and a tormentor in the Lost City area. The tormentor drops the key for you.
[Elevated Prismatic Chest Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpZKlwgM_UM)Facet of Defiance (Transgressive Prismatic Chest in The Transgressive)
For the Transgressive Prismatic Chest, you have to kill inside the cave a couple of shielded enemies. To lower the shields, you have to destroy the eyes, which are spread far apart in the same cave.
Each wave brings more enemies, and you have to find more eyes to lower all the shields. In the last wave, a tormentor spawns; kill him to obtain the key to the chest.
[Transgressive Prismatic Chest Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAAZr2EXqSU)Facet of Command (Divided Prismatic Chest in The Divide)
For this chest, you have to melt large piles of snow with the scorch cannon to obtain the orb charges to refill the energy in two generators. There are a total of seven charges, which you have to find and bring back to the generators. You need to fill up each one to max energy (10): a void orb charge gives 4 energy, a solar charge 3 energy, and an arc charge 2 energy. In one generator, you put 2 voids and 1 arc charge, and in the other generator, you put the remaining orb charges. After that, typically waves of enemies spawn, and at the end, a boss appears. Kill him for the key.
[Divided Prismatic Chest Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ry0gCIkVfc8)Facet of Justice (Refracting Prismatic Chest in The Refraction)
To obtain this key, you have to dunk the solar crystal in the correct hive rune three times. The main issue is that you see only the hive runes from the first floor (solo). If you fall down, the runes disappear. So it is solo a little bit tricky to find your correct runes. In a fireteam, the other guardians can tell you from below where the correct runs are. Solo, you have to try to find your runes with camera angle movement. If you find your correct rune and spot, dunk the crystal behind the hive rune and repeat it two more times. After that, typically waves of enemies spawn, and at the end, a boss appears. Kill him for the key.
[Refracting Prismatic Chest Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueLi8f6Gp34)Memory of Light (Seclusion / Refractions / Blooming)
For the next three Prismatic fragments, you need to unlock the Cyst missions from Micah-10. There are a total of six Cyst missions, and you unlock these missions via the quest "Alone in the Dark" To unlock all Cysts, you have to repeat the mission at least six times!
In each of the six cyst missions, you will find white-glowing enemies, and which cyst mission is completely random every time! When you kill any of these white-glowing enemies, they will drop an item called "Memory Vestige Light" You need five of them to get one of the three Memory of Light. The game convert after the fifth one automatically the item. (At the moment, there is a bug where the game is not converting the item, if that happens to you, delete at least 1 item that comes under the converting amount (5 -> 4 as an example) and try again.
After you get one of the three Memory of Light go to the location and just open the prismatic chest.

Memory Darkness (Divisive / Impassive / Transgressive)
The two fragments are similar to Memory of Light, only this time you have to play small mini-events in the Pale Heart world. In the world, you will find such glowing yellow chests, and when you interact with them, a small task starts that you have to solve. The tasks are not really difficult. Once you have completed them, you can open the chest and get an item called "Memory Vestige Darkness". You need five of them to convert into one of the two Memory of Darkness. After you get a Memory of Darkness go to the location and just open the prismatic chest.
There is one more Memory of Darkness (Transgressive) but this chest is empty; there is no Prismatic fragment. Delete it and try again.
The Final Shape has various collectibles, such as region chests, feathers, Lost Ghosts or Visions of the Traveler. Some of them are needed for Triumphs, titles, or the legend and exotic version of Khvostov 7G-0X weapon.
Feathers
There are a total of 55 feathers in the Final Shape. You need the feathers for some triumphs and also for the Final Shape title. 49/55 Feathers, can you get solo. For the last six feathers, you have to play the Dual Destiny mission, which required two guardians (no solo!).

Lost Ghosts
Micah-10 has 10 Lost Ghosts quests for you. However, not all of them are available at once. You do the first quests, and then more appear until you have completed all 10 quests at the end.The process of the quest is always the same. In the activity, usually at the end, you scan a statue and then find the ghost in a specific patrol area. The map marker leads you directly to the target area, and you only have to search in this area. The lost ghosts are yellow. The rewards are shards, harmonizers, and alloys, for example.

- The Oracle - Insight Terminus - Nessus
- The Return - The Disgraced - Cosmodrome
- The Ascendant - Dark Monastery - Dreaming City
- The Hellmouth - Nightmare Hunt Fear - Moon
- The Veiled - The Communion - Europa
- The Visitation - Beyond - Moon
- The Illusion - The Cunning - Throne World
- The Past - Heist Battleground Mars - Mars
- The Desperation - Devil's Lair - Cosmodrome
Region Chests
As always, on every new planet, we have region chests. This time, there are 9 chests, 3 in each main area (The Landing / Blooming / Impasse). One part of the loot is Lost Encryption Bits.You need these bits as part of the legendary Khvostov 7G-0X weapon (see Khvostov 7G-0X Part in this thread).
Visions of the Traveler
There are also 8 Visions of the Traveler to collect in the Pale Heart world, and they tell you a little bot story / lore after collecting. These Visions of the Traveler are alsopart of the exotic Khvostov 7G-0X weapon (See Khvostov 7G-0X Part in this thread.)
There are two different versions of the weapon: the legendary version and the exotic version. However, you can't get the exotic version without the legendary version. You have to do everything for the exotic version! Keep this in mind (and don't dismantle the legendary version; put it in the vault or keep it in your inventory until you get the exotic version).
Legendary Version
To unlock the weapon from the chest in the Divide, you need 15 Lost Encryption Bits. How do I get it?
- Step 1: Complete the campaign and the quest after to unlock all the areas.
- Step 2: Collect the 9 Region Chests to obtain 9 Lost Encryption Bits
- Step 3: Unlock the six Cyst missions from Micah-10 via Alone in the Dark Quest (repeatable!)
- Step 4: After or during the unlock, collect in the Cyst missions the remaining 6 Lost Encryption Bits
- Step 5: Go to the Divide and open the chest.
Info: The Cyst missions are a bit strangely integrated by Bungie. After you have unlocked all of them, you only see three active ones on the map. You can switch / activate the cyst missions in the patrol area with the birds that are a little before the missions. In the video, you can also see all the locations of the birds for switching.
If you want to repeat the cyst missions after unlocking them, you no longer need an Alone in the Dark quest. Just go to the starting point.
Exotic Version
As I mentioned above, for the exotic version, you have to do all the steps from the legendary version first and keep this version in your inventory or vault. The currency for the exotic version is called Mote(s) of Light(s). You need 17 of them. 8 are coming from a collectible and the remaining 9 are from Overthrow bosses.
- Step 1: Do all the legendary version stuff!
- Step 2: Collect All 8 Visions of the Traveler to obtain 8 Mote(s) of Light(s)
- Step 3: Collect 9 Mote(s) of Light(s) from 9 unique Overthrow bosses
- Step 4: Put the 8 Visions of the Traveler at the statues in the Tower (The Lost City) and open the chest.
Overthrow bosses: The last nine Mote(s) of Light(s) are dropping from the unique Overthrow bosses. In each zone (Landing, Blooming, and Impasse) are three unique bosses at the end of the Overthrow event. The best option is to write down the Overthrow area and bosses you have beaten. Make sure that the bosses give you the Mote of light, then process the next boss / area. Repeat clears of bosses will not give you more motes. Each boss drops only one mote.
Last Mote: This Mote is currently really buggy. Normally, after you have 16 motes, the last mote converts all motes into an exotic mote called Mote of Primordial Light. If that does not happen to you, you can try:
- Put all 16 Mote(s) of Light(s) into your vault and kill the last boss again.
- Kill the last boss over and over again and hope (some users report at least 3–4 times until the Mote drops).
- Wait for a fix from Bungie.
