Destiny 2 Lightfall - An Even Easier Calus Cheese / Easy Calus Boss Cheese - Final Lightfall Campaign Mission Desperate Measures Boss Fight Guide (Legendary) / Easiest Calus Cheese / Best Calus Cheese / How To Make Calus Boss Fight Easy. Just a quick video showing an even easier version of boss cheese for the final Campaign mission where you fight Calus, where you can make it quick and easy and avoid pretty much all damage. Details below.
00:00 - Phase 1
02:50 - Phase 2
While the last method was good, a few people were having trouble with Grappling on top of the bubble for phase 2, or the jump out. So this time, here's a way to make the boss fight even easier than before. You don't need to grapple up, you can stay under the stairs the entire time, and get it done completely safely. It can be slightly slower as a result, but it's very straight forward.

This method was patched, but here's the new one for Season of the Deep: ua-cam.com/video/cUUSbu5bncs/v-deo.html
“This exceeds my wildest imaginations” - Calus while fighting the Guardian through a stair case
This made me laugh quite hard, thank you
Yes. I laughed quite hard also …from behind the staircase 🧀🐭
Its not the First time. In the D1 Strike with Valus Taaurc you could hide in ramp with a few Boxes and just Camp the Boss dead with Icebreaker(Sniper with Infinite Ammo). Cheese is a Part of Destiny.
😂😂😂
@@playsie4731 That was the first thing I ever solod in Destiny. Took forever but it worked.
This is the ultimate use of cover.
Imagine if we still needed to pick up Primary ammo bricks! 😂
I don't miss those days. Lol
The game would eventually give primary ammo to you, but yeah it would be painful
@@InfernoSpike shoot to loot :)
@@SteveDestiny74ICE BREAKER 😢❤️
@@allawy under the stairs in the nightfall in d1 😉
Thanks! After 3 days of trying everything, you finally got me through to the end of this nightmare. You're an inspiration to the entire community.
Ah you're too kind, but I'm glad it worked for you. Thank you!
Its not that hard tbh i did it on legend, took me few tries but it was good
Bro it ain't even that hard just cook calus them your good
@@Esoterickk nah mean he’s so right. You’re a fucking badass and have helped out countless guardians. On behalf of ALL of them I give you much respect and thanks 😊
@@Esoterickk bad news man.. this 2nd phase cheese doesn't work anymore. Now when the barrier appears, it sealed off the spot.
I died like 22 times on the first phase without knowing there was even a second one. You have no idea how much this helps
I'm happy I stumbled past this I just got to the boss fight, I haven't died to any of the enemies but I keep flying off the map, thank you for this I look forward to trying it
The architects are truly the strongest enemy in the game
While using the cheese I noticed occasionally he would go back to center and I'd have to reset him again by shooting towards the platform again, but it worked
The reason you haven't died to any enemies IS because you keep falling off the map.
@@tgblanke haha most likely XD
Flying off the map is what keeps killing me as wel
PSA: Loreley splendor helm works with Strand during the campaign missions, as long as you have the Solar subclass equipped. Grants a lot more survivability on strand Titan
Thank you so much for info! Nice
Yep this is what I ran. Osteo striga to keep a ticking dot on calus preventing shield regeneration, good ol Cartesian coordinate for chunky burst if needed, then a hothead for quick burst on calus during second phase. Took about 15-20 attempts to do legit but worth it!
The Loreley Splendor build is still just completely busted lol. I breezed through Lightfall's legendary campaign with it. The hammer does insane damage that heal you a ton, and the sunspots also heal you as well as ad clear. Just spamming hammers makes you literally unkillable lol
Lmao that's so broken 😂
@@theunderdog9353 maybe that’s why legendary witch queen was harder lol
The entire time I was doing this, i kept thinking how boring it was, but then I realized I'd much rather be bored running it oncet han be pissed running it 200 times, thank you
You have saved the sanity of my friend and I. After the "Strand Trial" which had us ready to rage-quit, this fight was lookin' to claim that honor. But your video helped us so much! Thank you for being the best Guardian you can be!
I see that I am not the only one who lost their sanity on the strand trial
@@misiek007pl7 Not at all!! Lots of people are having issues with the Strand missions
All this just to get a subclass I’ll probably never use 😆
Allfather save us from having to fight giant bosses in tiny closets.
you can just swap to another subclass after u get strand empowerment
that damn mission really stressed me out too, but this realization allowed me to put on void and go to town on the last guy
This reminds me of my time in D1 nightfalls, hiding somewhere with icebreaker 😂
Thanks so much for this! As a casual player I found this mission just too challenging and really tedious, not fun at all after a few attempts. So thanks for getting me through 🙂 A few rockets in phase two gets the job done quick too
Yea, same. I registered 45 deaths in one sitting. This is a life saver.
If Bungie had matchmaking for campaign missions, we all wouldn't be here
This was a tough fight but I managed! If it helped, I used the usual double fusion well warlock with starfire. It's such a basic build but it worked effectively (I didn't use any cheese). I realized what killed me most often is the dangerous platforming, I fell down wayyyy too many times. So I didn't use any Strand or grapple stuff.
@@rad.yall27 can’t stand using strand tbh
Callus is able to hit thru the steps sometimes in the first part of the encounter and if you decide to go for the tormentors make sure you keep track of them. They hop onto the platform on the left and can use the scythe attack to hit you.
Also he wouldn't go left 2nd phase for me so right side works just as well.
If he starts hitting you with missiles just crouch and they won’t hit you
There’s a few ways of stopping them being able to hit you depending on how and where you move around
They can, but I didn't find they were hitting me consistently enough to be a threat. Worst case I found walking forward on the pipe to break their line of sight, causes them to jump back to the center platform to try and get at you.
Calus wouldn't move for me either so I had to spam threadling grenades to kill him. Also, the tormenters tried to flank and chip away my health when they weren't trying to knock me off the pipe with double suppressor dives.
I died 57 times late at night yesterday cause I had work the next day but I got it without this method😂it will be much easier next time thanks
I died 45 times and said tomorrow is the day!
I always appreciate your vids on how to cheese things. Your strat way back when for the Thorn quest was a huge help
Thank you. You're always my go to if I get stuck on something. I do my best not to look at guides but if I need help I come here.
Thank you so much for this, I did this twice, in a fireteam with my Titan and solo with my warlock. I truly tried to do it with my hunter but I kept getting pushed off the map and got sick of it.
Again, thank you mate. Respect
Thanks for posting this. It’s a lot easier than trying to jump to the outside.
i like to think guardians canonically cheese every boss fight
its probably the most Guardian thing possible
@Sathona - LOA This reminds me of the Winter's Run Strike cheese way back when by hiding under some stairs before they patched it in D1. Good times....
Perfect now i can finish this mission on my other classes.
Same here
Now I can finish the mission in general
It's not that hard. Burst DPS super + Grand Overture made this quite easy. People do suck at movement though and get constantly picked off.
haha i can confirm still works 2 classes down 1 more to go
@@VAVORiAL I wouldn't say that. For me it's just alot easier to move for me with my hunter then the other class. I've just never been good with how warlock and titans dash. I did this legit on the hunter but I had to use this method for titan because
I just have way less control with when I get launched. I will admit it's probably a me problem but I just feel like when I'm not playing hunter I get hit more when I'm using the other classes. The only thing that saves me on titan is the solar subclass and this is just movement even when I don't abuse invis.
Imagine waiting waiting so long to fight your favorite Guardian, only to fight said Guardian through a staircase 🤣
Destiny cheese will always be a joy to me
Legend bro straight up I'm a solo player so this extremely helped me you've definitely got a sub out of that one
So glad I stumbled on this in my recommendation. Not sure how difficult this boss fight would've been without the cheese, but I'm glad Esoterickk posted this guide. THANKS!!! 👍
Thanks so much for this, saved me a lot of time. Took awhile to get the boss to migrate over to a side in phase 2, but finally got him to do it after waiting awhile 😊
DUDE , I GOTTA THANK YOU!!!!! I did phase 1 okay yesterday under the stairs, BUT I fell like a rock when I tried to make it to the platform to then grabble the bubble!!!! Dude, I'm old and slow no way I was gonna do this without you!!!! BTW, the ENTIRE 2ND PHASE was done USING 3 SUPERS AND 4 OR 5 RIFTS , Callus only came over in shooting range for one brief second!! Thanks!
Who else is happy we didn’t have to remember all the symbols on his coverbun
For those who are doing this on a second character I would recommend the deterministic chaos if you aren't using a exotic already. It helps alot for the 2nd phase.
Hi Esoterickk ,thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏you are amazing , I spent over 48 hours over few day just to solo on legendary level but I’m just not as skilled as most young games as I’m a older gamer ,basically a part timer just for fun not too serious , as I’m very busy person , playing games , takes my mind off the huge stresses that my job entails .
I thought I was never going to beat the boss after the first boss fight then things hot up and boom , you fight him again in the arena , I thought I was finished , absolute impossible I said to myself. Until I saw your video and thought , wow are you sure , it took me 3 goes and I made it , I’m average player . Big big thanks to you for helping the community on your videos . I’m very greatly appreciated if your skills , I’m not sure how on earth you find these ares of the game to beat the boss , buy you are a genius , thank you 🙏
Thank you so so much. I got stuck in the second phase when I couldn't get Calus to go where I was shooting, but after a few minutes of waiting he finally showed up. Could never have done this alone.
Thanks so much for the Guide. I killed both the Tormentors first, then Calus phase 1, so he wasn't very co-operative for phase 2. I actually had to lean out quite a ways on on the right side (opposite of your video), before he would walk over so I could shoot him. So if others have this issue, just have some patience and take some shots on the platform to draw his attention.
Once again, thanks for the Video!
Dude. It works so great. I used Osteo and pleiades corrector but any scout in energy slot will work great, because on 2nd phase where you’re stuck in the bubble, calus ends up having his face perfectly placed so you can just face shot him with ease. Shoot osteo, get the poison going, switch to scout get headshots all day. ❤
As someone who just tried to do this final mission with a friend on legendary and after 3 hours we gave up and did on classic just to get strand, this brings me great joy
Noob lmao
That final fight and all the other ones where they locked you in a circular room with no cover only to force you to use strand grapple....yeah....that's bullshit man....the boss wasn't hard clearly depicted here in this video is an example of how the boss was a pushover you can sit off the side and kill him....I love this game but the artificial inflation of challenges is going too far....
@@realityyz Putting dude down over a video game difficulty is real classy.
@@zigzag2370 The tormenters were harder than calus lol. Plus the fact that there is next to no cover with a million adds makes regening incredibly hard
@@zigzag2370 artificial inflation of challenge? It wasn't that hard lol
Thank you for this! This worked perfectly. After getting flung off for the 3000th time, I was gonna give up. The grapple is a mess, it doesnt even stop you from falling most of the time.
Thanks for the help! I usually play Destiny 2 for the campaign and do only a little grinding outside of it.
The whole fight is all over the top with all the additional enemies. You saved me a lot of nerves. Thanks! ♥
My hands started to hurt after the first few attempts at this normally, so I’m glad I learned about the phase 1 before I did the fight just in case.
A few attempts later I learned that phase 2 could be cheesed as well, thanks to this video.
That said, always bring a Wish Ender, that thing HURTS them good
Great videos - very helpful - thank you!
-5$ lmao
Glad it was helpful, and a thanks to you!
I never ever comment on stuff but after 10 straight deaths by calus blowing me off the sides during second phase I was done. Thank you so much for this video. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for the awesome vid; it helped out tremendously...truly appreciate all the work ya put into ur vids; they have helped me out a lot especially since I don't have a lot of time to put into D2 due to heavy work schedule...thanks again & much appreciated!
Took me 3 hours in previous method , as it was hard to execute phase 2. Grapple from under the bridge to a bridge and land perfectly was a pain , but I finally did it . This method would have saved me lot of nerves ... tnx
3 hours? Dang. Thats some bad luck. Took me 5 minutes for the whole encounter
@Soft_Serve05 it took me this much since I would execute the grapple jump badly and wouldn't dock on the side bridge, and I would have to start all over again ... first time i managed to land on the side bridge , all was fine, but to get to this point you need to dps the boss for like 5 minutes ... This new method is much easyer and 100% safe .
@@soft_serve0534 lmao sure it only took you 5 min. Stfu.
I had the same issue, so I just melted him with Thunderlord in phase one from the upper catwalk and then grappled up when the dome came down. Thunderlord melts him in maybe thirty seconds.
Then once on top I was out of heavy and pecked him down with a pulse.
@@daniel96jg well... Yeah? With this method, killing calus is easy. Especially in non-legendary campaign. Especially following esotrick's original setup with osteo and a machine gun (mine had AL vorpal as well). Just melt the boss, and if you can land on the platform (especially using hunter dive ability to catch yourself) you can hop up above the bubble quite easily. Overall not too difficult, unless your on the other classes and have a hard time compensating for the momentum of the grapple. Perhaps it wasn't exactly 5 minutes, but it was 100% under 10 minutes
I felt like the best way for me to get good damage under the stairs was walk right up to the slits and when you see damage incoming from tormentors or calus you can just crouch and most damage won't get you, and if you need a break from splash damage just take a few steps forward after crouching. Especially with osteo striga and the randomness to the bullets it made it a lot easier to get bullets through the stairs and into dudes head, hope this helped.
sidearms and scouts worked well.
I gave up on Legend Calus last week but decided to try again today. Thank you so much for this!
After all the grinding I did to get this battle done watching this video helped me a bunch thank so much for helping that was a really good spot 😊😊😊😊😊
Thanks man. As an old average gamer this really helped me.
Also be patient it took a while for that chungus of a cabal to finally saunter over to die
I think the previous cheese is easier on titan for jumping out since warlocks are momentum based jumps, but definitely helps knowing so the doing the alts aren't as much of a pain
Thanks man, I'm a solo player and was having trouble, 10 minutes after watching ur vid easy breezee. Appreciate ya!!
"There goes my hero!" Is the song I hear playing as you post this. Thank you.
I tried these 2 cheeses & could never get out from under the stairs w/o falling to my death-so did non-cheese for 1st phase & cheese dome for the 2nd-worked out-thx as always for your help!
The jump can be a pain for sure, but I'm glad the first phase worked for you at least, and it helped get it done!
You can not do this no more bungie has patched it how do i know because I'm in there right now and it does not work 😢
@@jacerenz8466all the people that have done this since your post suggest otherwise.
Also easy cheese, use outbreak perfected and come out of cover and use super to kill each tormentor. Your super will be able to regen from the damage to kill both of them anyways and then swap to gjally before phase two and keep away from calus by sticking to the air for fast and easy kill
Thanks,you one of the few content creators that try to help casual players
Thanks for this. Took forever on the second phase as Callus stubbornly refused to wander over after a while. Fortunately the supercharged green sperms tracked him
Outbreak is a great option for phase 1. With catalyst it's hitting like 2400 per impact and just melts him. Then I did the grapple thing on top of the bubble and absolutely shredded him with it
I used Polaris Lance for phase 1, because that explosive shot does insane damage, then switched to Le Monarque to cheese phase 2 from on top of the bubble.
The poison dps was crazy, and he's so easy to crit from up there, lol.
Tried this and Calus just stands directly above me and rarely moves away.
Nevermind. I had to start over twice until Calus moved his ass into place. Worked like a charm!
Thank you sooooo much. Perfect guide on how to do it, worked perfectly the first time. Turned the hardest boss in this expansion into the easiest. Again, thank you so much!!!
I didn't see this until I was getting my third guardian through the story, but I used it and it was certainly a stress saver lol. Thank you for posting!
Classic. Reminds me of Archon priest nightfall from D1
Sitting under those stairs with icebreaker ♿️
@@3JJ3 Right? 🤣
Will definitely do this with other characters
You saved my sanity and prevented me from rage smashing my controller!!!! Thank you for posting this!!!
I THANK U FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART FOR THIS SAVE!!! YOU ARE A TRUE HERO😭
Thanks!
And a thanks to you too!
Anyone having issues with Calus not moving to the side and just being stuck in the middle of the arena?
You’re not far enough to the left. You should be so far to the left that you’re convinced you’d fall.
Also, Monarch wrecks him. It won’t shoot through the stairs for stage 1, but for the second part it’s perfect.
@@DHforHOF thank you!!
Thanks man, I was really struggling with this fight but this method really helped out and I ended up beating Calus first try without even red screening
You are the GOAT. Thank you so much for this and the strand carousel cheese!!!
I tried your other method of grappling above him, but missed and ended up fighting him normally inside the dome and it was actually pretty easy with Two-Tailed Fox. Just run, turn around and shoot/grenade/reload. Repeat.
Was you playing on easy mode or legendary?
@@ethanbell7283 legendary that would work yea
@@ethanbell7283 Legendary. Void-Bastard Titan.
Thank you sooooo much. You have saved me from so much pain and suffering.
this cheese is excellent thank you SO MUCH for saving 4 hours of my life on this cheesy mess of a final boss fight thanks again I've liked and subscribed
It won’t let me crawl under the steps
It's been patched, but you can still use this strat! You need to get under the platform you spawn on, instead of crawling under the stairs. It will still allow you to shoot through the stairs, and is actually a safer position overall for first phase.... then you'll need to swing under the walkway (in front of the stairs) to be in the same position for phase II. Definitely less convenient, but still works.
You’re the real MVP, tbh. Thank you.
So I cannot get under the stairs fully anymore?
@@shunaustin4679 That’s right. If you try you’ll find you can’t go through what the guides show. But there’s a new method that Tristain talks about. Jump to either the right or left upper catwalk, then turn around and jump onto the X patterned metal struts underneath the platform, and from those jump onto the pipe. There are some videos that show it, you can search “updated Calus cheese” for example.
Holy Cow! This is absolutely genius!! I am stuck on this part currently and I am definitely going to try this method because the dome method I couldn't do
This helped do much, I was at light 1720 when I found this video and I cheesed both fazes. Thank you
Literally a life saver 😭 the other cheese wasn’t working well for me lol. I don’t even care that I cheesed it I’m just glad I did it solo 😂
lol they actually patched this. i hate bungie.
Thanks posting this. Saved me a ton of stress.
Tysm for this video guide this helped out a lot keep up the great solo content
I was already done with this fight after barely even three consecutive attempts that ended in getting flung off the ledge by a Tormentor. This video saved me a lot of stress, and probably the cost of a new keyboard.
thank you so much, this fight was a pain in the ass playing it legit im really unsure what bungie was thinking about this
dude omg i just came across this video right now and it helped alot. thank u.
3 hours trying to to the other cheese with a hunter and first try with this method. you are awesome
Thanks man, this was a frustration saver for sure. The nightmare is over now.
Thank you so much, as a casual player, i was struggling with the second phase.
Thanks for this. Managed to help get someone a clear on legendary. Awesome!
Thank God. After doing it once solo, and again with a friend, I couldn't be bothered solo on my titan. Absolute legend!
Thank you for this! I did a little bit of an fudge up at the end! I fell to my death when I went to jump out from under the platform lol!
Holy crap thanks a million for this, this mission is harder than it needs to be which takes the fun out.
Can't wait to try this!! Thanks for the cheese!!
i did this on hunter pretty easy bc im faster with movement but warlock i did this cheese. Hats off to you for making it look so easy on a warlock man you are impressive beyond my comprehension! Appreciate all your vids youve helped me with so many things in this game and in turn have made it more fun. Cant wait for Elden Ring DLC to see you destroy everything without taking damage hahaha
Thanks for this after way more tries beating this the intended way than i care to admit i looked up a cheese strategy and found this. Got it on my first try,
Thank you so much for this. We love you man!
Thank you! I hate the strand subclass and felt like it was needed the other way. So thank you!
FINALLY GOT IT! Thanks you earned a Sub pal!
Holy cow this was the cheese of all cheese. Thank you!
You are a god send, i never thought i would get this one done 😊
Never fails u always have something that will help me thanks man what a badass
Thank you man, I'm ill so my normal skilllevel is severly compromised but Destiny 2 is one of the things that keeps me going. And this mission had me so frustrated.
‘This exceeds my wildest expectations’ is what calus or anybody in the system says about esoterickk 😉💪🏻
Thx for this as always bro. I wasn’t even gonna attempt this maddening frustration …. But u have given this average solo casual hope 💯
Thank you! I was struggling with phase 2, and of course it resets at the beginning.
you saved me i was trying to do it legit for hours ty so much
Spent hours on this damn mission 400+ kills this saved me. Thanks!!
tysm, you're going to heaven for this
This was a big help! Could not get through the second phase. Outbreak prime with the catalyst made real quick work of everything in the room.
Thanks for this E. Doing the second phase from under the stairs I could never get the boss to migrate over to the wings of the platform where I could take him down. However 3 strand supers propagated through the floor and took him out.👍
You are a gentleman and a scholar, and I thank you.
