Lightfall, the DLC for Destiny 2, brings us loads of content and new missions like Downfall. In this mission, you will be tasked with infiltrating Calus’ flagship and destroying the radial mast before it reaches the Veil. As a Guardian, it’s up to you to thwart Calus’ plan to destroy Neomuna. But his ship is huge and full of enemies. To help you, we have created this step by step guide.
Walkthrough of the mission “Fall”in Destiny 2
Once you complete the Under Siege mission, you will be able to play Downfall. To start the mission, approach the Lightfall Campaign banner. Once you interact with the banner, you can add members to your team and start the mission. Once you’ve done that, run the following checkpoints:
- Reach the Emperor’s Typhon
- Infiltrate the fortress ship
- Destroy the ships of the Shadow Legion
- Defeat the Tormentor
- Destroy the radial mast
Reach the Emperor’s Typhon

The Typhone Imperator is a Calus fortress ship located in the eastern part of Neomunas. Once you get to Ahimsa Park, you will encounter a suppression field that will limit your respawn. Moreover, a wave of Cabal soldiers will attack you.
After defeating all enemies, look for a black glowing stone with a yellow aura at the entrance to the ship. This is the key to opening the barrier. Shoot him and the entrance to the ship will open.
Infiltrate the fortress ship
Once you enter, check the minimap to navigate the ship. The next part is to jump over obstacles and hit low level enemies. Eventually, you will reach a room with a golden statue of Calus. Here you will be ambushed by strong enemies, so be prepared. Once you defeat them, you will find a door to the right of the statue. Break the black stones to open it.
Then take the gravity lift up until you reach the entrance at the end.
Destroy the ships of the Shadow Legion

Once you get to the room where the Legion ships are parked, a lot of enemies will spawn. Defeat them and go to the Sphere of Dark Resonance. Once you carry it, more enemies will appear. Defeat a few, dodge the rest and place the Orb in the artifact.
Defeat the Tormentor
After placing the orb, the ships will be sabotaged and a new boss will spawn. The tormentor is strong and can destroy you if you’re not careful. But you can check out this guide to defeat this Downfall mission boss.
Destroy the radial mast
After defeating the Torturer, move on and you will reach the Colosseum. Here you will meet Calus. Here you will have to defeat a lot of enemies and bring in two resonant spheres. Once you do that, a new boss will appear. Calus will call him his champion and you won’t be able to kill him. So go to the marked coordinates while Keithal is talking to you.
Escape from Calus’ ship
Once you cross the Golden Barrier, the countdown will begin. You will have 1:30 minutes to escape the ship. Don’t run, it’ll take forever. Take out your Sparrow and go through the obstacles. Avoid getting hit or Sparrow will take damage and explode through the dot.
Once you’ve escaped Calus’s ship, The Downfall mission will be completed. To help you get a better idea, we’ll link to a video from a YouTuber called ZaFrostPet.
