Conquistador is one of the harder titles to earn in Destiny 2, requiring you to articulate multiple Grandmaster Nightfalls. Y'all'll need to go comfortable with all of your subclasses, learn how to counter Champions effectively, and be able to clear vi unique Nightfalls at Grandmaster Difficulty to earn this title. It's past no means easy, but PvE players that want to push button their skills and builds to the limit won't find a more than suitable challenge.

Note: This guide is for earning the standard Conqueror title. We'll take a guide for gilding Conqueror in the near future.

Lightbearer

Destiny 2 Arms Dealer Strike

Lightbearer: Earn a high score of 150,000 in a Nightfall strike.

Unlike normal strikes, Nightfalls have a scoring system that tracks how efficient your squad is at defeating enemies. Killing enemies will grant a certain amount of score, with more than powerful enemies granting more than points. Grabbing Orbs of Power also adds to your score, so be sure to use Masterworked weapons and apply your Super.

Since enemies are such an integral part of your potential score maximum, you lot'll want to complete this Triumph by playing a Nightfall with hundreds of enemies. Nightfall difficulty also adds a multiplier to your score, although nosotros recommend playing on Fable or Principal for this challenge. Grandmaster is incredibly tough, and the showtime two Nightfall difficulties don't have a large enough score multiplier to make this Triumph achievable.

Keep an centre out for the post-obit Nightfalls:

  • The Devils' Lair
  • The Disgraced
  • Fallen Southward.A.B.E.R.
  • The Glassway
  • Proving Grounds

The Nightfalls listed above take an immense amount of enemies (200+). This should brand reaching a score of 150,000 feasible for almost teams. Just be sure to generate Orbs of Ability and kill every enemy you lot encounter.

Breaker Of Champions

Destiny 2 Champion

Breaker of Champions: Defeat 100 Champions in Nightfall strikes.

Dissimilar nigh Triumphs tied to Conqueror, you don't need to play Chief or Grandmaster Nightfalls to complete this challenge. The Champions you defeat can be from any difficulty, pregnant Hero and higher difficulty settings count. Since Hero has matchmaking, it's not a bad idea to subcontract a few Nightfalls at that difficulty to terminate this challenge.

Yet, we recommend that you lot don't focus on this challenge until the other three Triumphs are completed. You'll take to play Grandmaster Nightfalls multiple times for the last two challenges. GMs are filled with Champions, and then you should be able to complete Breaker of Champions without much issue.

Conqueror's Subject area

Destiny 2 Arc Solar Void Guardian Supers

Conquistador'due south Discipline: Complete a Grandmaster Nightfall strike with each subclass.

There are 4 subclasses in Destiny two, categorized by element:

  1. Solar
  2. Arc
  3. Void
  4. Stasis

You'll need to consummate a Grandmaster Nightfall, the highest difficulty tier, to complete Conqueror's Discipline. The Nightfall in question doesn't affair; all four completions can be from the same Nightfall if you lot want.

Since Locked Loadouts are agile in GM Nightfalls, yous can't utilise the subclass bandy strategy that most use to consummate the strike weekly. As a result, you'll need to run a practiced build and subclass tree to consummate this challenge.

Let's go over which subclasses are the best for completing GM Nightfalls. Keep in heed that y'all tin complete the four bracket challenge with whatsoever class. For example, if yous're a Hunter principal but need to complete the Arc subclass, yous tin can switch to a Warlock and complete a GM with a Stormcaller subclass spec for the challenge.

Hunter Subclasses

Destiny 2 Hunter Concept Art

Solar

  • Way of the Sharpshooter (Bottom Tree Gunslinger): This subclass has nearly everything yous need for a GM. You lot have an first-class Super, a solid melee power, and decent grenades. The Super is the star of the evidence, capable of heavily damaging Champions or killing majors. Yous can either use Angelic Nighthawk or Star-Eater Scales with this spec, based on your team composition and general playstyle. Apply Star-Eater Scales to get your Super quickly. Try not to hold information technology.

Arc

  • Way of the Electric current (Middle Tree Arcstrider): Your Super can deflect enemy projectiles and deals solid damage confronting fodder enemies. Exist actually careful using this Super to impairment enemies in close range, equally you don't have much damage resistance in Arc Staff. The rest of your kit is serviceable, featuring a ranged melee attack and solid grenades. Raiden Flux and Shinobu's Vow are solid Exotics to pair with this spec.

Void

  • Mode of the Pathfinder (Bottom Tree Nightstalker): Unless you take a team that chains Supers reliably, bottom tree Nightstalker is by far your best option. Y'all have a Fume Bomb that affects your team, first-class grenades, a loftier-impairment Super that debuffs enemies, and solid ability uptime thank you to Gainsay Provision. Utilise The Sixth Coyote for constant Fume Bombs. Omnioculus is also a good option.

Stasis

  • Spec for Supers: Revenant'southward Silence & Squall Super is fantastic in GM Nightfalls if your team is generating Orbs of Power. Use Whisper of Bonds and Whisper of Durance to raise your Super and gain Super free energy from slain frozen targets. For Aspects, Grim Harvest and Impact of Winter go well together and give you lot tons of Fragment flexibility. Star-Eater Scales or Mask of Bakris is fantastic for this setup.

Warlock Subclasses

Solar

  • Attunement of Grace (Middle Tree Dawnblade): The king of support specs should exist a no-brainer for GM content. Phoenix Protocol is a solid choice since it allows you to place Well of Radiance more frequently.

Arc

  • Attunement of Command (Heart Tree Stormcaller): Anarchy Accomplish is an absurdly potent Super for GM Nightfalls. It deals cracking damage, makes a copious corporeality of Orbs, and y'all tin can regain your Super quickly by using either Crown of Tempests or Geomag Stabilizers. We recommend Geomags for most groups.

Void

  • Attunement of Chaos (Top Tree Voidwalker): Overcharged Vortex Grenades are incredibly powerful, particularly when paired with Contraverse Hold. One grenade tin half-wellness a Champion if placed right as they are stunned. If you're masochistic enough to solo a GM Nightfall, this is the best bracket you tin can utilize.

Stasis

  • Grenade Spec: Use Bleak Watcher and Whisper of Durance. Y'all'll want to overcharge your grenades to create ice turrets that'll freeze enemies. With Verity'due south Brow and a expert Energy weapon, y'all can use a surprising amount of crowd control without much effort.

Solar

  • Code of the Siegebreaker (Bottom Tree Sunbreaker): Sunspots and the Sun Warrior buff are great in GM Nightfalls. Be careful of your positioning with this spec, as staying away from cover for also long is a expiry sentence. Run Phoenix Cradle to have your Sunspots support your team.

Arc

  • Code of the Earthshaker (Superlative Tree Striker): Honestly, Striker is 1 of the weakest subclasses for GM content, just the Earthshaker tin can go far work. Double grenades are useful for defense force sections or tight gainsay arenas. Run Heart of Inmost Light to recharge your abilities faster. Don't use your Super for anything beyond add together-articulate.

Void

  • Code of the Commander (Middle Tree Sentinel): This is the best subclass for Grandmaster Nightfalls, full stop. With Ursa Furiosa equipped, you give your team near-infinite Supers and immunity to incoming impairment from a wide-angle. Simply be wary of your Super's duration.

Stasis

  • Defensive Setup: Utilise Tectonic Harvest, Whisper of Rime, and Whisper of Chains. This volition give you the ability to gain overshields and a 25% harm vitrify on the wing. It isn't equally powerful equally a chimera Titan, but y'all tin can make information technology work. Pairs uncommonly well with other Stasis users in your fireteam.

Total Conquest

Destiny 2 Proving Grounds Strike VIP Cabal

Total Conquest: Consummate six different Grandmaster Nightfall strikes.

You must complete six unique Nightfall on Grandmaster difficulty for this challenge. Different Nightfalls refer to a unique mission. For example, if you consummate the Lake of Shadows Nightfall, clearing the aforementioned Nightfall multiple times won't grant additional progress.

This Triumph tracks your total GM clears, non just those from a given season. If you are incredibly patient, you can only run GM Nightfalls that are considered the easiest of the bunch until you've completed six unique Nightfalls.

Alternatively, you can expect until the finish of a flavor to end this challenge. During the last few weeks of a given flavor, every GM Nightfall becomes available to play. This lets y'all articulate six unique Nightfalls at the finish of a season.
