Destiny 2: Haunted Forest

Haunted Forest during the Festival of the Lost.

Summary[edit]

The Haunted Forest is a special version of the Infinite Forest. Fireteams of Guardians, many wearing masks, will be able to enter this area.

- Respawning will set that Fire team member back at the start of the Haunted Forest Branch
While in the staging area, your timer will not decrease.
This can be used for a break or to simply wait for a Super or two to fully charge.
Each wave has 2 parts, the arena sections and then the boss fight.
Each arena section requires that the fire team clear the area of enemies.
Each boss will increase in difficulty the deeper you get.
Each enemy is worth about 2% progress, meaning at least 50 enemies need to be killed in each branch for the fireteam to progress.
Be sure that you are taking it in turns to use your supers throughout the encounter.

There will be Invincible Nightmares scattered throughout the arenas.
- DO NOT try to kill these, just run away.
- Avoid these since they are immune and do heavy damage.

Roaming supers are highly recommended for this event.
There are a lot of enemies that need to be defeat quickly to ensure the best progression throughout.
Revive your fire team members!

Modifiers will be cycling throughout the Haunted Forest.

- Every 5 levels, an additional modifier can come into play.
Blackout - Radar is disabled, melee attacks are buffed.
Glass - Shields are at half strength but regenerate twice as fast.
Attrition - Health does not regenerate. You must kill enemies and collect the small pool of Light they occasionally drop to restore health.
Grounded - Take more damage while airborne.

Starting an instance of the Haunted Forest will give you 15 minutes to get as deep in as you can.
When the timer runs out, your fireteam has a chance to go through the branch they are on, as long as the fireteam does not all die.
This will allow the Fireteam to complete the branch they are on, taking down the boss before taking you to the Treasure Room.
