How Do You Finish First Contact in Destiny 2 Lightfall?

First Contact starts you off progressing through a ship that you’ll need to get through in order to make it to the next step. Destroy any vents that are blocking your way by shooting them with your weapon to get through. Finish off any enemies that rear their ugly heads as you move towards your first objective.

There will be a few doors that have symbols on them relating to keycards which you won’t have yet at this point in the mission. Ignore these and run up a ramp which will take you to a platform that has a group of enemies including a Keymaster.

The War Beast Keycard

Take down this Keymaster and all accompanying enemies to obtain the War Beast keycard, which will let you open the War Beast doors. Pillars in the zone where you fight the Keymaster can offer you cover, and stay wary of any new enemies as they spawn in. Continue running through the ship until you come across a boss who will guard the next Keymaster’s room.

The Conquest Keycard

Take on Kavauust, Reverent of the Witness in battle and work to quickly defeat this boss so that you can progress with the mission. Behind him will be a large viewing room that contains the Conquest Keymaster and many other Legionnaires and Phalanxes. Wipe out these hostiles and then use the Conquest keycard to open the ship’s core room. You will need to attack the rods on the core to destroy it and continue with your quest.

The Chalice Keycard

This keycard requires a little more effort than the other two in order to be obtained. As you leave the core room and jump ship, travel across the floating asteroids that separate your current ship to the one Osiris is directing you towards. There are some hostiles on these asteroids, and Calus will taunt you a little as you travel. Stay focused and look for the Chalice Keymaster once you reach the second ship by using your waypoint markers for guidance. Defeat the Keymaster, and use the keycard to open the Chalice door. Congratulations, Guardian!
