Destiny 2 Lightfall - Easy Calus Boss Cheese - Final Lightfall Campaign Mission Desperate Measures Boss Fight Guide (Legendary) / How To Make Calus Boss Fight Easy. Just a quick video showing a very easy 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.

03:24 - Phase 2
An Even Easier Version: • An Even Easier Calus B...
I spent a little bit in here to find these spots, particularly for phase 2, and they worked quite well. Phase 2 can seem a bit awkward, but with a little practice it should be easy enough to jump out of the gap. You can use your grapple to get up if you use the grapple point, so that way you won't lose the cooldown to get on top of the bubble. Phase 1 is very simple, so it's no big deal if it takes an attempt or two. Hopefully this helped, as I've had quite a few people asking for this after the previous video.
I also realise this is technically a spoiler... but Lightfall has been out for a good while, and it's plastered everywhere by now.

This method was patched, but here's the new one for Season of the Deep: ua-cam.com/video/cUUSbu5bncs/v-deo.html
THANK YOU! I came close so many times, i needed this to restore my sanity, tytytytyty
Thanks a lot dude , you have no idea 25 attempts on that boss and finally got it with your vid help :)
I went into this fight solo, blind, and still confused on my builds. Took me an hour to beat the first phase. I was so stoked. Came phase 2, locking me in with melee Calus, non-healing strand titan, no ammo and 2 tormentors, I was gone in a heartbeat. Looked up tips on Calus and found this. I'm not usually one for cheese strats, but this did made me happy.
O I feel ya my titan brother from another mother! Died more times then I like to admit on the last stage fighting all 3 in such tight quarters. Thought I had it figured out once I learned the best way for me to *melt the tormentors, leaving just me and Calus.. NOPE! The Calus fight is basically in a Phone Booth, you can't leave it but he sure can smack ya out it, dying instantly.. so annoying.. (* incase anyone is wondering about how i defeated the tormentors with ease..Once you pop off their shoulder pads, crit spots, they go all 'Red Ross' and come gunning for ya, get on a catwalk with one of them, pop your Strand barrier to entangle them, I use my Heavy Void MG (Retrofit Escapade w/4times a charm & target lock)on their chest, crit spot.. they die well before they come untangled.. just melt away)
I ran Lorely Splendor to get those emergency heals for my titan worked like a charm during strand
I just ran round and round in circles grappling occasionally to gain distance and tossed the occasional wither hoard on calus's noggin. Ignored the tormentors completely, they couldn't do anything if I didn't break they're armor which is what brings out their nastier moves. Only took a few attempts 👌
as a hunter, i feel you lmao
is that an hour with wipes or did it take you an hour just to get his health down?
It's videos like this that show how supportive of our community Esoterickk is. They can solo flawless any and all content in the game up to -80 light level, yet put out this video to help those of us who have struggled with the legendary Calus fight.
Yeah but can he solo legendary in under 30 using only drops and upgrade materials that a new player would have?
@@jasonrussell5265 To be honest, I don't there's any challenge in the game regarding difficulty that he can't do. I'd be down to watch a -40 light in all blue gear run of harder content.
@@jasonrussell5265 theres a solo GM video 2 years ago of him only using White and Green weapons
@@lushfresno6130 you might enjoy Rylee Reloaded. They’ve done challenges like made. Like doing the witch queen lightless/ with only damaged traveler’s chosen/ with only arc souls etc. really interesting to watch
@@jasonrussell5265 I don't know what the point of this question is? Legend isn't made for new players. The description of it when you start it literally says it's designed for guardians with an extensive arsenal.
Dude. I spent hours on this fight last night on my hunter, until my hands hurt. Gave up, went to bed, woke up to find this. You’ve my sincere gratitude, wish I had the means to contribute, but im flat broke. All I can do is keep sending traffic to your channel as long as im able ❤
How much mobility did u use to reach the top of the bubble
@@jesuscortesruiz4114 Just use grapple bro, but if you wanna or need to do it jumping, you need at least 70-80 mobility.
Dude, THANK YOU! I was losing my mind on the legendary version. You made me go from angry to literally laughing the whole time. 😂
Dude the crazed revenge laughing was wild
Saaaaame ughhh finally ;-; lol *laughs like a maniac* 😅😂
The fact that you need a cheese shows how difficult it was for many.
Still such a letdown. Where were all the psionic powers?? Calus is not just a cabal colossus/gladiator
Totally agree with you there, It took me 2 hours with a bit of luck. These tormentors kept slamming me of the map
@@Havocinflames fun fact: if u take out the tormentors by shooting their shoulders and string them up with your strand super they are super easy to eliminate(if u dont string them up they will 99% of the time suppress your super and take it away) make sure to kill them in the first room that way they dont spawn again in the second room.
It was really just the amount of adds
It took my team 3 tries and we got it. It's really not that hard.
Oh man! It’s like Destiny 1 again looking for cheese spots. Love it!
Bracus Zahn vibe is back!
I also love it, I see it as a strategic position that allows greater immersion for the player to play as he wants, test other strategies and use his own methods, but unfortunately Bungie wants to avoid this type of spot, I noticed that every time a player discovers a spot like this doesn't take long to be removed or barred with invisible walls
@@gokupm112
Honestly its more bungies fault they add things to make it seem hard when its more so to screw the player
I got serious Valus T'arc solo Nightfall vibes, using IceBreaker.
The level of copium here stinks
Huge thanks, as a solo player that battle was brutal and I died more to ring-out boops than being shot. Returning the favor with a cheesy hiding space was very helpful.
Thanks a lot man, I almost gave up in frustration.
May your pillow always be fluffy and your blanket warm.
Dude you just helped the whole community there were some many group posts for calus the amount of people that can’t beat this guy is crazy
Calus actually took me less tries than the other "bosses" throughout the campaign, Calls only took two tries but I was stuck on that Headlong final room for like an hour
Scrubs.
@@lowlifeNPC ok man we get it you have no life outside of destiny it's okay
RIGHT! I’ve been legit hard stuck on this fight since yesterday afternoon. Tried every subclass, every OP build I have. I’m playing on legend but was contemplating dropping down to brave because beating this mission felt impossible. I’ve never seen my death count meter go so high! 😭 Now I’m going to RUN to my game and try this.
Man this guy whoop my ass like salvathun did Wtf 😭
Shooting from behind the stairs was a lifesaver, felt like I was redoing Valus Ta'aurc in D1 again with how much it trivialised the encounter. Phase 2 with strand was pretty easy though, just empty an Osteo clip, grapple, rinse and repeat. I think I found it harder climbing the dome lol.
Same !!! Hardest part hahaha
Big ditto!!!
Saw this clip today after a few days of somehow scrambling through Phase 1 before getting continually massacred by Calus Phase 2. Tried the Strand roof strat this evening, melted Calus in about two minutes and happily consigned this rather too difficult mission to the history books forever. Thanks, Eso!
As a solo player on legendary myself, I wanna thank you for all the hours and rage inducing fits you saved me.
After learning about Leviathan's breath in the patch notes.
I started using it for my legend solo experience.
Come to find out that it was stun locking all the bosses, made second phase a cake walk.
Leviathan's breath with volatile rounds shreds. Archer's tempo on this weapon is nuts.
@@oranda2000 You don't even need Volatile Rounds on it now lol, the full drawn arrow intrinsincly applies volatile now
It even has a pretty decent ammo economy too! I was trying to tell my Clan how good it was. No one believes me
I was struggling until I used Leviathan's breath. 1 shots the tomentor with ease.
I’m so happy I’m not the only one. I tried everything on the tormentors but leviathans melted them in normally 5 shots
The Le Monarque bow is really strong for the 2nd phase doing this strat. The poison arrows plus constant headshot made it go quick
Le monarque is honestly just really fucking good for the campaign, the healing is almost op and it does solid boss damage when you run out of heavy and special, the boss in the mission before this it was the only reason I could beat it, sitting in a hob goblin area allowing the healing to counteract the red wall damage
@@SM-ys8lw I swapped between witherhoard and le monarque the whole campaign lol
@@yoegurd yep
@@SM-ys8lw the only way i beat it was by having partner grab strand to start the mission. then i stay on solar hunter with YAS and just grenade + rocket spam the boss
@Ok yeah i think 2 poeple was optimal 3 is just way too much health, with 2 one dps the other ad clear.
This was a lifesaver. I ended up missing the grapple for the second phase and having run around for a while and then I fell under the map. Then the craziest thing happened. I was able to stand on a ledge under the map and my previous damage from the Osteo Striga glitched out and did continuous damage to Calus so all I had to do was stand there until he died lol
I honestly thought I was the only one struggling with Calus. There was some irony for me in fighting Calus because after all of the other Legendary missions, Strand just felt natural and amazing against Calus. All that training before the final confrontation actually paid off!
My least favourite mission had to be the one where you try to destroy the Radial Mast. It required so much precision without cheese.
That one was BRUTAL.
I cannot accurately express my thanks for this. This is so useful.
Edit: still took me 10 tries, but I finally did it! Thank you again!
i've died twice doing this so far. im a new player so all i have is shitty gear and gun drops from doing this up to this point.. It's taking me TWENTY minutes just to get him low in phase one before i can even try to do the 2nd phase cheese.. I am so funking bored
@@Jake-um4gg don't pick up the strand super use your preferred super class. I don't think strand is good here personally. Keep rotating as well should help.
@@mainyt4081 honestly, as a new player who intentionally picked void hunter for invis so i could survive legendary. all of the forced strand missions are really fucking awful. thanks for the advice
@@Jake-um4gg God the last mission before this is atrocious.
@@Razzying yeah they weren’t great
After some experimenting around the room, I found the spot under the stairs myself last night after getting frustrated with all my failed solo attempts. I also found out you can stay down there even into phase 2, all you have to do is edge yourself onto the side of the pipe you're standing on to shoot through the stairs and you can squeeze under the floor, then Calus should walk to the side of the main platform and you can shoot his legs.
hey you're right.. i tried this method and it works! thanks!
@@xreggiex I LOVE YA
GOAT
im not sure what you mean. i tried staying under there and was still teleported out
@@Jake-um4gg
You gotta crawl further
I can’t say thank you enough for this strategy. I finally reached Calus today, and was getting annihilated. I took a look at your vid, and it took a few times before I was able to beat him. You the man!!!!
Much appreciated. Finished the campaign on normal when it dropped but used your strategies to finish the last two missions on legendary just now. Keep doing what you doing 👏🏾
3:35 Thanks buddy! I got that legendary campaign finished solo thanks to your video. You are an awesome player and a great UA-camr!
Thank you soooo much for this!!!! I have not been able to complete this encounter and have died about 100 times and now I finally completed it!
Thank you so much. I fought so hard through the first phase and after I was quickly taken out in the 2nd phase, I IMMEDIATELY looked up a video to help. Again, many thanks. You saved me quite the headache.
Thank you for this. Didn't make it up top before getting sucked in on Phase 2, but had enough ammo and health to somehow survive and get it done. Don't know how on earth I'd have manged that first phase without this. Much appreciated!
what i did for the solo legend was just not grab strand and just bonk hammer everything
I stafire fusion naded him without killing a single enemy
Exactly that bonk so broken
@@tylerburge1496 I melted Calus with starfire protocol, I killed him in less than 3 minutes
After doing this legitimately but also painfully now knowing this was possible hurts me for all my struggles I had to endure completing it normally on legend
Yeah I'm seeing this after finally beating it solo on my 97th try...
Assassin’s cowl carried me through both Witch Queen and Lightfall. It took me all day to beat the campaign but with invis, solo can be still be managed (fuck tormentors though).
@@rosifico yea some exotics are pretty clutch and lol bro that’s why I said always keep running cause of the tormentors 😂😂
I beat it 1st try. The 2nd encounter was just me spamming witherhoard while running away from calus and tormentors lmao
Same. I struggled with a team
You and the person who posted the headlong mission cheese are forever goated 😤 thank you so much!
Thank you so much for the guides for the D2 campaign! Really helped me knock out the Legendary bosses. Keep it up dude
Great video! Be aware, the Tormentor’s can rage grab you through the stairs. Either be full health to survive the grab(you will magically go back below the stairs when they let go) or move under the platform along the pipes when the go red rage mode.
Watching this made me realize the one thing calus couldn't part with when he became a disciple: his pride. He says "The Witness will see me." It has never been about the Witness seeing anyone, but the reverse. The name "Witness" should have been a give away. And always great solo content :D
This saved my butt and actually encouraged me to play the rest of Legendary with this out of the way. Genuinely appreciate this information!
dude thank you so much for the tutorial, i've been trying for about half a week and now i've finally done it.
wow, cant thank you enough for this, ur an absolute legend
Thank you thank you thank you!! I thought i would never beat this solo. Kept falling. Very annoying doing this solo. Thank you again!!
Love you so much this is literally the best video I've found on this. Looked up like 20 different builds and methods and this was the best. Thanks for your help
Thanks a lot bro. I can officially say that I beat lightfall on legendary solo. It’s insane how it still took me an hour using this method.
Has anyone ever said how thankful we r for you? I've been trying to solo the campaign and got stuck on the last two. Your vids helped. Truly bless you. 🙌
Also could you show how to titan jump out of that hole. 🤔
The GOAT, coming through again. Thank you for this for my legendary run!
Thank you so much. You helped me clear the campaign. Not sure I could have done this without your help! I definitely tried. I liked and subscribed!
Holy hell, thank you so much! I spent hours on this fight and could barely get to phase 2. You're a lifesaver!
Thank you so much for the video. You literally saved my sanity 😅
Same for me😅
This fight is almost if not completely impossible, solo, legit. You are a god my friend, I was getting ready to finish on regular mode just to get it done this week. Thank you Eso.
Not impossible but its a heart breaker for sure. I finally was able to complete it with no cheese after countless deaths. After i learned to kill the tormentors before second phase i was gucci bc u can swing infinitely as long as u grab the green balls in the air. Swing to one side shoot for a few seconds while he runs at u and rinse and repeat. I was running graviton Lance(gave me an overshield anytime I broke one of the tiny ads shields was great for keeping me alive in a pinch also has vorpal plus the explosions from cosmology) commemoration and a deliverance with chill clip.
its difficult but not impossible. I found the best strategy for me was to use witherhoard for a majority of the dps, while throwing in some linear fusion rifle shots. The main reason I suggest using witherhoard for dps for the first phase is to save your heavy ammo for the two tormentors. Once you get rid of them, you can use as much heavy ammo as you want. Those grapple points are also your best friend. Enemies have a much harder time hiting you, and tormentors cant really get to you.
Holy crap I can't thank you enough for this video I've was struggle hard to get this done and because of this video it's done on my warlock.
Thank you for sharing this, boss. I have been playing Destiny since The Dark Below and never really struggled with a campaign mission. This boss fight is challenging me beyond what I thought and knowing there’s a strat to help me clear it helps.
I’m stubborn, so I’m going to try and beat the mission solo legit first, but I appreciate having this in my back pocket. Thank you.
For the 2nd phase, at 3:24 you don't need to jump out, just crouch walk all the way forward and once the new boundary wall appears, you can saftley crawl back.
Don't work it block me from crawling back to the steps to fight
@@tottenu You cant shoot calus directly through the stairs during the 2nd phase. The moment his first Heath bar is gone, crawl forward, once the new wall appears, crawl to it then safety position yourself on either side without falling off (pref right side). Equip a primary ammo weapon (for infinite ammo) and shoot him once you see his legs. He will walk short circles.
Thanks for this! I hate this strand grapple
The fact that I found this cheese spot COMPLETELY by accident while swinging around the room like a mad man and thought I was gonna die. Then proceeded to complete decimate him in all 3 phases of the first part.
THEN thinking it was over due to joining fireteam. But shuffled forward a little and further under the platform.
I proceeded to shoot 1 Psion on the side of the platform i could still see. Then Calus was all like “Oh, you saw the Guardian?! Let me have a look.”
Then stayed in shooting range for the whole of part 2. 😅
Thank you so much for this video. I was having so much trouble with this fight, and this cheese works amazingly
I was honestly having a very difficult time trying different strategies to get through the Bossfight, see you do it like this makes me feel like an idiot for not thinking of it earlier, but honestly, thank you this help me get through the rest of the campaign
The Ostea Striga was surprisingly strong for this fight when I solo'd legend. This clip will help others who have been having trouble for this fight, which is good. Many people in my clan and friend's list struggled with this. Btw, there's an achievement for doing this solo on legendary.
The Osteo Striga is just strong.
this and witherhoard both are really good picks for this fight especially if witherhoard has the catalyst
Bungie cheesed us all out of a full games worth of money by giving us the most middle of the road (at best) expansion in years
Bless you for this!!!! 👏👏 I could get the first phase done no problem. Then the inside the bubble part kicked my toosh! I appreciate the cheese! Happy Gaming!
Thanks so much for this, after too much frustration it was the answer I needed. I should have known you'd come up with something to help out us mortals.
On one hand I'm glad I did this properly but on the other hand you better believe I'm cheesing it on my 2nd and 3rd chars
Thank you so much dude. Spent 2 hours on him last night trying all sorts of things… Then found this in the morning and we got him in about 7 minutes.❤
I love you so much. I was at my wits ends and did it on the first try. This is quality cheese!
I love you. This and the cheese for the previous one were lifesavers
One "cheese" I found for the second phase (which could come in handy when they fix the current one) is you just hug the cylinder on the floor and play keep away with him. Just keep rotating around the pillar, trying to keep him more or less opposite of you the whole time. He doesn't jump or lunge at you. Only problem is when psions come in, which you just kill them and move to another cylinder. I just pot shotted him with wish ender, but most anything that isn't super close range required works well.
Take it one step further and just jump on top of the cylinder and he won’t attack you at all
thank you thank you thank you for this. i was bashing my head trying to figure this one out, this made it so much more simple.
Bless you, was strugling to finish the story solo legendary and questioned not finishing it because of how hard this final fight was. I hope you have a good day kind sir
I feel like this fight had too much going on, so very thankful for this
If any of you guys have quicksilver storm as well, I highly recommend it as the grenade launcher mode one-shots his shield and does decent DPS as well so def recommend it, carrried me through my 30 attempts LOL
Quicksilver is the most goated kinetic in the game
@@shadows_star RIGHT? absolutely been LOVING this thing, especially after the catalyst and ornament, goated gun fr, glad to see others enjoying tf out of it too
Love the vids eso.. I don't even play destiny anymore but I still find it entertaining with your vids.
Thank you so much Esoterickk, was stuck big time. This worked perfectly.
Thank god, this encounter was the first time I legitimately rage quit
Same. After dying 10 times by being booped off the map I rage quit and haven’t turned it back on since
Same. First time I've rage-quit in two years. Will be trying again after work today
Finally beat this with two random lfg guys, and then right at the end when we killed calus they kicked me and it didn't count for me, and i have no idea why. I almost single handedly took care of the tormentors too which was annoying. Thank you so much for this
I hate hearing these grief stories. Some real crappy people in the community sometimes
Report them to bungie, they will get banned
Never join lfg always make them. Some people just enjoy the power of the boot a little too much
Because youre using a glitch 🤡
All I've to say is thank you! From the top to the bottom of my guardian heart, thank you! I instantly subscribed!!!
Un grand merci pour ce tuto génial, j'étais en galère et grâce à toi j'ai pu le passer, merci beaucoup !!!
As of 9/27/23 This is patched
FUCK
Of course. 🙄🙄
This is super helpful. I knew of the phase 2 cheese but they all required doing phase 1 quickly by unloading a ton of damage all at once like a Starfire Warlock build. This will make the phase 1 a lot easier for me.
One question - based on what you played so far, what do you think is the easiest mission to do flawless solo master in this campaign?
Thank you! This was the only thing I had left for my warlock and this method worked perfectly!
Ngl this method saved me so much frustration. I appreciate you heavy ✊🏾
osteo striga GOAT
real
Thie mission is called desperate measures for a reason 😂
Thank you, I love part 2, managed to beat this mission easily using your video, thank you very very much!
LMAO...Damn, you post this now, after I solo'd it yesterday.....gr8 job!! Definitely gonna be useful for players!!!
Was it worth the spoiler?
YES
They removed the exploit. Bungie will fix anything but a problem.
Man thank you so much. Doing it solo was a pain for me. This was G rated. Thanks again!
Thank you. That fight was driving me nuts!
Tried finding a way after accidentally being yeeted under balcony and shit.
Bet your ass I’m using this for other 2 Characters
Tip for anyone doing this fight: The side platforms shaped like a curve can be used to easily kill the tormentors.
When one spawns, destroy both of its shoulders and get it to follow you. Jump on the curved platform and wait for it. When hes jumping up to it, you jump back off to where he came from. If he comes back down then go back up again. Repeat this back and forth until he eventually just walks off without jumping and dies.
I found this out by accident and its a lifesaver.
Thanks man! Super helpful for me. This fight was really annoying with teammates. I was actually looking for a build for this fight. But found your video instead. Thanks again 👍💪
I beat this first try too💪🔥💪🔥
Thanks for this a lot 👍. I struggled with my lfg teammates then both left after about 8 or 10 attempts. Came back the next day solo after watching your video, got it on the second try(failed the jump the first😂)
these cheese tips have been so helpful thank you so much
Thank you.. i finished the mission solo and it was really an amazing feeling!!!
Thanks 1 million! I did this with outbreak perfected, it worked AMAZING
Thank you! Was stuck on this. Destiny 2 GOAT as usual.
Thank you so much for this video! I was stuck on this for hours!!! Talk about an unfair fight! Thanks again 🙏
The and Osiris's gauntlet simulation broke me. Appreciate your work.
Thanks so much I have been trying for 6 days finally getting 2 finished now working on my third thanks again
I can't thank you enough for providing this video. After painstakingly building a tanky character that can withstand any attack, I was shocked how easy it was for the boss and the Tormenters to simply toss me over the edge to my death. I spent time trying to kill them fast, or very VERY slow, but it always ended up with me falling to my death. After 3 days of trying to beat the boss, after COUNTLESS hours, I almost uninstalled this game for probably forever. You helped both me and Bungie from losing a loyal customer!
A friend and I were playing last night and he found that spot by mistake but we never thought using it for cheesing phase one, but that second spot, that is the french kiss, thanks!
Thanks so much! It took a few tries to get out from under the stairs. It totally worked!!
I tried 2 days straight until your guide. Finished this step in 15min. Mahalo nui loa
Stuff like this just brings back the D1 vibes and enjoyment.
Saviour of the community.
Worked like a charm! Thank you, bro! That was perfect!
Outstanding!!! Thank you so much for this helpful information 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
My fireteam and I beat him the first time after like 3 hours straight and I was put back to step 8 of this quest. Thank god you made this 😭 thank you!
This reall saved me was doing that mission longer than I’d want to admit trying to do it the right way lol
