Crota is back and way, way meaner than his Destiny 1 version. At least on contest anyway, normal mode I'm sure he'll be a pushover. Yes, I stayed up all night to make this so I hope it's good and accurate.

Apologies for some of the inaccuracies in the guide, only so much information to work with in the first day or so, but I think I got most of the things correct.
Fixes: You do not need to Expunge Wizards to progress the Bridge encounter, things just move slow (like a lot of things in the raid). I don't think Expunging Ir Yut does anything other than provide some damage, but this is something my team did not bother to utilize at all.
Any other notes, feel free to let me know. I edited this for 9-10 hours immediately after 12 hours of Destiny, so my brain is just now rebooting itself.
I luv u
Doesn't the bridge to even enter the abyss require a new mechanic as well
For Crota final stand my team was able to kill the 2nd oversoul. We got the clear but not the triumph. Wonder if that might be a contributing factor as to why so many teams aren't actually getting the triumph completed.

Finally I can learn how to beat this raid, again.
Least solo-able raid in D2 👏👏👏 what a comeback.
Esoterrick: "Allow us to introduce ourselves"
@@ChristopherCabello can't wait.
@@ChristopherCabellou mean snazzyrock? He does more solo raids. Eso still crazy though
entire raid is trio flawlessable. in theory
@@ChristopherCabellowell you can't solo it now thanks to that debuff that doesn't allow you pick Calice of light up for 40 second. You kinda need team mates.
Love how chalice of light physically stops you from soloing it. Bungie was not even risking the chance for a solo clear
I'm hoping Cyth was ok. Your team was insane to push through despite suddenly losing a member. Congrats.
What happened ?
@@craftmaster343 his internet went out
@@mauri9998cyth had a family emergency, I have no other information.
@@DeathReaperFourNor should you, personal matters ain't our business.
I hope Cyth and Cyth's family are ok, best wishes.
something to note, during Ir Yut, if there are two shriekers on 4/5 or 6/7 the shrieker radar circles don't completely overlap, so you can feasibly check if there are two shriekers on a side. If there is only one circle on a side, you can use the arrow overlayed on the shrieker radar circle to tell if it's top or bottom, and obviously no shrieker circles = 2 wizards
Also note that since shriekers hang in the sky you'll want to check your radar from the top door/room, so that the bottom shriekers will show a downwards arrow. If you check from the bottom you'll always see an upwards arrow.

To anybody having trouble with the first 3 encounters, I cannot stress enough how POWERFUL vesper of radius warlocks are.
But sunbracers
Yeah, easiest way to lock down one place, extra resilience with the elemental embrace artifact mod against arc is a bonus. But some people will kick if you don't want to use Well lol
Born to vesper of radius, stuck doing well sunbracers
Started running cause I saw someone else and it was amazing for contest mode. Especially useful to get enemies of the team during well while also providing some fun arc soul damage.
You might've not won, but you're still a champion in my heart, Datto.
Do you happen to know what they placed?
they got 106th, about 50 places higher than their RoN placement. thats a win imo.
Daddo has been here for so long we have seen him grow into the ultra guardian chad he was playing as back in D1.
Yikes...
Datto doesn't take it serious anymore with all these speed runners able to execute quickly once they know mechanics, he knows he can't win with his team.
Who else came for the awesome bgm?
Tf is that
Literally all of last night I was going “waiting for him to say ‘cue the music’ please god”
It started playing in my head as soon as I saw the thumbnail
You already know.
Bit strange you did that tbh, but at the same time, I can’t blame you
This raid was Essentially the first ever Dungeon in Destiny history and years later became one of the most entertaining raid races I’ve ever seen from so many streamers
You don’t have to expunge the wizards in the bridge encounter. We just killed everything normally.
I guess things just took a while to get rolling then, thank you.
@@DattoDoesDestiny yeah it felt a bit slow and confused at the end of the bridge encounter. Congrats on the clear!
What we did was pass the enlighten and the first person who takes the chalice will take it at the end and preserve it. This way everyone is enlightened, the only catch is the only person that can die is the first one
Abyss tip - you can see the next lamp from each one, if you can’t see the next lamp lit then there will be a preservation node at the lamp you’re currently at.
Good tip, thank you
For the sake of easiness bridge is MILES easier if you enlighten all but the last one before you start crossing. This removes the need of running chalice back and forth the whole time. The 1st person to get sword can just hide, I found the rocks on the right side the best place to do this. If anyone has questions comment below and I will answer them when I have time.
Bro I came up with this during my team clear and it jsut made it simple. Just dunk it almost right away and don’t have to touch it till the end.
Just gotta be kinda careful and try not to die on og side
can a person holding the chalice and has full chalice of light charge deposit it in the node?
@@TheGreatBigPawn yes
i did this with my team and it worked really well
Haven't finished the raid yet, but really enjoying the revamp.
Fantastic work Bungie. Crota finally deserves the "Raid" moniker.
It's a dungeon, really. Compare it to Ghosts. Both have roughly same amount of encounters. Both have just 2 bosses. Both about the same time investment.
But it being compared to the hardest dungeon we've ever had IS still a compliment because before it was a glorified strike. I'm not even that good and I was able to solo that whole raid, start to finish.
So yeah, difficult dungeon. But still not a raid IMO. Not long enough, not enough bosses.
@@Real28vault of glass has 2 bosses. VoW has 2 bosses. Are those raids?
@@FalconStkr1well no silly you're just doing dungeons. Git gud scrub (I am joking and viciously mocking the idiot above ya don't worry)
@Real28 What makes a raid? I have a simple answer for you. 6 man = raid, 3 man = dungeon. Everything else you said is useless
@@Real28”roughly same amount of encounters” *has 4 encounters like almost every other raid aside from last wish*
“Both have just 2 bosses”
*has 2 bosses just like most other raids such as deep stone, wrath, garden of salvation, vow of the disciple, root of nightmares etc*
You didn’t think this comment through did you?
GG to you guys, watched the whole stream. Always love watching you guys run!!
I don’t even play destiny anymore, but I always watch these guides. The nostalgia is real !! Thanks for continuing to be a pillar to the community Datto!
This raid was actually pretty difficult for me and my team I was suprised
same we got stuck on crota for like 5 hours
@@fake_hugo404 we got stuck at deathsingers. Had to call it my Brain was melting 😂
Probs cuz of contest mode modifier cuz the mechanics look pretty tame. Hard would be like Vow or Riven legit. The Sanctified Mind to this day is a nightmare if you don’t have competent teammates
@@thatoneguy2136honestly VOW legit is pretty simple, even with kinda messy coms. Last wish legit? Yeah fuck no I ain't doing all that.
@@Wormy_fren idk man, I’ve Sherpa some Vow groups and some people just can’t coordinate during Exhibition.
I can always tell if it’s gonna be rough if we wipe more than 3 times during Acquisition.
Datto sir, I thank u for being one of the first to explain every role and part instead of just showing the encounter, I appreciate it cause I wasn't able to make past the bridge so far but I can understand everything how u explain it sir, keep up the hard work
like 10 years later to see this again and everyone still using the ghallohorn to kill these bosses is just wild thing to see
Nobody is using gally
.....did you not watch the ir yut kill?
Good luck getting a kill on either of these two with ghally
@@sydious_s_snakethat’s how literally most teams killed ir yut, with divinity it’s a pretty easy shot to make, and datto said to use rockets on Crota if not using swords
@@georgenewman196 with how much she moved, linears are far more consistent damage
MY HERO DATTO COMING IN CLUTCH WHILE IM AT BRIDGE!!!
WE MAKING IT OUTTA BRIDGE WITH THIS ONE🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
All it takes is our boy and his music to make things possible.
9:58 The bilge building process is my favorite process!
Jokes, I'm sure you were EXHAUSTED making this guide, props to you guys on the solid clear even with the difficulties y'all faced!
My introduction to Destiny was watching my friend play this raid, time really flies
I'm happy with the changes they made with this raid, it feels more like an actual raid now
Thank you for the amazing raid guide. Our team managed to finish Contest Mode, was a wild run but such a fun time!
Thank you for such a detailed break down! Appreciate you and your teams hard work!
y'all really putting in work, it's appreciated!
Finally the raid music compilation I was waiting for.
Maybe now after this whole raid race Datto will finally realize that a 6 man fire team of Tommy Matchbook with cowboy hats is the optimal raid strat
With the bridge encounter the way we did it was a bit different but we pretty much got 3 people over then they kept the bridge up for everyone else to eventually cross. It was nice because there really wasnt any crazy back and forth, it was a lot more straightforward. Cant remember all the details rn though, but it had something to do with everyone on the home side getting enlightened.
Edit: Atp did the same thing that is definitely right. And yeah it was a lot easier to keep track of, but eventually there will be just one person on the home side and they need to get a sword on their own, so it can be a bit tough to survive.
Another edit: for ir yut the expunge thing does not prevent the wipe, instead it functions like the explosion on golgoroth, dealing a large chunk of burst damage, and clearing enlightened. There is also a triumph for doing this in every damage phase.
One last edit: Foetracer works really well for any damage as well (bungie actually disabled knicklehead radar, i think they said foetracer because the old perk got moved to knucklehead). It is basially a free 4x surge (5 with monochromatic). Really handy for squeezing out a lot of damage.
From D1 Crota to now D2 Crota, I've been following you Datto. Love you and how you mesh so well with the Dream Team!
Unfortunately not finishing it as our team is drained as heck, but lovely to see everyone else in our clan clearing, they used your guide so thanks!
we gave up last night, but me and a close freind gave it another shot after our first team left, and we just beat bridge, looking like well still get it
Thank you for working hard on this to get it out so quick! Sleep well king
I love that iconic Datto raid walkthrough background music.
The 🐐 of raid guide people
Datto's Back. Nice concise quick guide. I'm sure there will be more starts to add as time goes.
I missed your guides! ♥️
And that soundtrack too.
datto the saint of putting out these raid videos asap
We’re on some nostalgia with that music and a Datto Crota guide.
WOW, that music! The nostalgia is real for this guide. Dato's bringing me right back to 2014!
I imagine Foetracer will be meta for Hunters once it is enabled again since it can proc a 25% elemental damage buff for swords and relics.
It's only a regular surge, so unless the swords do solar/arc/strand damage (or whatever subclass you have), I don't think it'd be buffed?
@@HawkmoonaMatataI'm not 100% sure but the sword does arc damage iirc
@@SirScrumply The Sword's super does Arc. The regular swings are either neutral or kinetic.
@@ZeAwesomeHobo would be really nice for foetracer then for juiced up super damage
i watch these just to hear the music tbh, please never stop using this song, nothing gives me a feeling of nostalgia quite like datto explaining a raid over royalty free upbeat music
To confirm for the bridge, if you enlightened everyone on the first side, the team will have to enlighten again on the other side to pick the swords back up once the squad of gatekeepers spawn again
shoutout to the gamers who cleared crota this weekend. thanks datto for the hard work you do o7
I really appreciate that your last words on the guide were “Focus Crota”
Such a nostalgic cherry on the top.
For Ir Yut, my team used upper and lower left/right for the towers outside and close left/right for the areas right by the initial entrance. Middle was our call for directly above the crota crystal. You can use U/L/C to signify if upper lower or close with L/R/M for sides if you're having trouble remembering where they are in the heat of the moment.
We had whoever got enlighten first prioritize the tower wizards as whoever got it last was most likely hiding in the halls under close and middle spots.
Waited for this vid before attempting!
thanks for the guide, our groups strategy for bridge was to send people over one at a time and stall out the chalice by passing back and forth between two people before it was full so not everyone had enlightened and/or died to engulfed in light.
The tip about Burning Maul stagger Crota was a good call, had our Tractor Titan do that for the first few phases and it really helped stop Crota from eating our Wells, but didn't seem to at all during final stand, so we then switch to Pyrogale for that.
My favorite raid guide music is back
Man, this one's been pretty hard, me n my squad are stuck at Yut. Hopefully we can get it done.
LETS GO NEW DATTO RAID GUIDE!!!!!!!!
GG y'all did great. Prays for your teammate.
Absolutely wild they had a mechanic that involved you using the interact button so frequently in the season where there are a billion elemental drops on the ground to interact with lol
For bridge, we did the enlightened everyone first, then brought chalice and sword across, to keep sword on the second side, and it worked very well. We also tried bringing chalice back near the end to have two people together as the last ones to cross to help the last guy, but our last guy ended up crossing solo. And I second turrets being very useful during bridge.
Cool to see Tractor putting in work.
Raid guide music being my beloved for 33 minutes and 31 seconds straight.
Thanks Mr. Datto! You are the hero Destiny never deserved but, luckily got.
So the chalice mechanic is quite a bit like Skolas and the poison in D1
Bet you can still block the kill with a sword 🤣 which made Skolas solo-able
@@callmeshaggy5166 Oh god I remember trying that out... Did they ever fix it?
Grats Datto and friends for the clear! gotta sleep now but one more chance before reset lets hope.
Oh the music. The guide music makes me happy.
Challenge version crota strat felt a lot better. Gives crota less opportunity to kill your mates. We had a designated crota decoy, stood above the crytal and tagged him with a scout which maye crota most of the time neglectable (very nice for everyone else)
Good guide, love you datto
Hope you sleep well
for ir yut, if you're using linears, one niche but powerful option is briar's contempt with surrounded, since there are most likely still enemies all around, surrounded will be perma proc'd through the dps phase as a 40+% dmg increase...
This just reminds me how I deleted a keep away surrounded roll. Pain
@@Wormy_frencraft it
@@svn5994 hah I uh, I don't hab the patterm
I truly believe this is nearly impossible without a team you play with regularly. I have tried so many differnt lfg groups, with like 20hrs of gameplay and the average Destiny player cannot stop themself from dying in the first 2 seconds of crotas fight starting.
This is so funny to me
You say its impossible without a team that plays together regularly, yet at the same time you just swap teams all the time because you fail to get carried
Have you considered other people just leaving the fireteam, and having to go find another lfg as a result.
@@catra1 Fail to get carried? I dropped 5.2m damage on crota while covering sword duty & helping kill tower knights.
Because most people suck ass at this game. Sad but true
@@Rozar87025.2 mil is not that much then buddy smh. The sword from crota already does around 1 mil damage. Which means you just made 4 mil damage. Come back when you do 6 a 7 mil damage like me. 5.2 mil 😂. Even newbies make that amount of damage.
y’all did so well on day one. hope you can get some rest datto
I had to work all weekend. Haven’t tried it yet. Can this be Solo’d? It looks harder with more mechanics.
No you need to be able to pass the chalice for a buff, so you cant solo it
@@LimblessAnt Ok. I don’t have a team, so I went back to Destiny 1 for awhile and had some fun with Crota while being Solo. I forgot that my Necrochasm in D1 was Arc. Fun to use.
I don’t play this game anymore, but I still love me a good datto raid guide!
Already watched a guide and done the raid. I just like to hear other perspectives, especially dattos.
trying to study this vid over and over for raid night with my clan and i can never get past "bilge building process" without chuckling, definitely gonna start using that to explain it
Lords knows I have been waiting for this guide just to hear the music again
Banger of a reprisal
very excited I never had anyone to raid with in D1 but now all I do are raids crota's end was one I always wanted to do and now have the chancew
Me my clan and a couple of teachers beat the full raid and it was my first complete crota raid, I was super happy and I fully understand it now. It wasn’t that bad pretty proud of myself and I understand the mechanics and encounters well. I had the crota armor already from just the first couple encounters and I got my clan together and some people that gave us leadership through the raid and so happy I cleared the raid finally😊 got good weapons too and the emblem can’t wait til next week to do the raid for the weapons again and get more clears under my belt and practice the raid over and over and master it. Surprisingly easy we two fazed ir ut but the bridge encounter took the longest as my clan mates were pretty confused! Crota wasn’t that hard either.😅 number 1 thing
that helped is assign a order of which players will be getting the chalice from eachother and who will dunk the chalice and keep updated on eachother on call outs so you can help guide your teammates to focus on the next step of completing the encounter. Pretty simple raid it may seem complex to inexperienced players. 😅
I'll never do this but happy to support
If you lose the chalice, it will respawn at the last preservation spot in general, I think. Thats how it is in Abyss and for the Bridge.
Always puts a smile on my face to hear this music haha
Can't believe they gave the guy from Dares of Eternity his own raid
Love you for bringing up leviathins breath love you :D
The bridge encounter is dizzying to understand. Can’t wait to try it out.
I missed Datto's raid teaching music, it's so iconic
Always here to Listen to Datto's Raid guide music
Finally, my license to attempt the raid has arrived
My raid team were all busy yesterday, so I was just completing some seasonal stuff, while watching the stream. A different clan member who I’ve never spoken to invited me to his group that was on Crota, and I was thinking that I’m not qualified to do a raid if datto hasn’t completed it yet.
Thanks so much for the guide, Datto--I was gutted for you when your internet went poof during the race yesterday. :(
For crota final stand, my team did 2 oversouls that added 10s and 8s respectively
Datto has the best guides
Me, who hasn't played Destiny in years:
Neat, more Datto content.
Thanks Datto!
Came for the guide music. Not disappointed.
My team had a babysitter (me) wearing Stronghold gauntlets and aggro-ing Crota so that Crota was never a factor in causing a wipe. I just blocked his attacks and when damage came up I used burning maul to stunlock Crota for most of the damage phase.
Now that contest mode is off, I'm not sure if this step is necessary anymore. However, it is great for positioning the boss away from other enemies to reduce incoming sources of damage and allow for everyone to group together before damage begins.
Ir Yut is a fantastic encounter. Better than Crota I believe.
It’s tight mechanically and becomes more precarious each phase. That’s what Destiny needs more of.
One tip I do want to add for Crota: our group's biggest struggle was people dying randomly to getting shot by Crota. So I took a Stronghold Titan and kept his aggro and it really saved us a lot of hassle, and didn't cost us much since we were using Lament anyways. Some tips if you want to try that:
1. Crota's sword attack is arc, so you can triple dip into Arc Resist, Melee Resist, and Concussive Dampener.
2. The biggest threat to you is the very occasional time he'll physics launch you into a wall, so be very careful with your positioning.
3. Keeping him near the starting area helps make sure you don't get blasted by boomers when they spawn, but you do need to be careful when turning him around due to the occasional physics launch.
4. While having sources of healing is nice (he'll eventually whittle you down after maybe 80 slams or so), you can also back into the room you start in. If he's close enough, he'll sword lunge through, get stuck in there, and have to teleport out. If he has some distance, he'll back off slowly and start shooting his ranged attack at you. For some reason I was actually able to start natural health regen through being hit by his ranged attack, I think maybe it dealt so little damage that it didn't count towards stopping health regen. So either way, it's a decent source of brief safety if you need to heal, and makes this doable on any Titan subclass.
5. You'll need to coordinate with your team on when to grab ammo each phase, my group usually had me go grab it after killing the boomer knights and when the ogres were spawning, as long as there wasn't a chalice trade happening in easy line of sight of Crota.
Well met, Bungie.
I look forward to seeing what they do with Wrath. I imagine it’ll come with the Revenant episode (02), due to that being about the Fanatic (Scorn / Splicers are thematically similar), and since we know the year of TFS will have two dungeons. I do know JB said they aren’t talking about it right now, which is of course fine. All in due time.
Arc souls are fantastic in the opening lamp section
I recently reinstalled and tried D2 again, last time i played was prob around a year ago and man it's almost unrecognizable as far as the map in orbit and just a lot of small tiny changes that just make it feel so far from what it was like during it's golden age which was imo Forsaken, when they added Bows and new subclass paths (Blade Barrage/Shards of Galanor hunter was the G.O.A.T). I really miss how much fun it was just chilling with friends and playing, trying new strats to perfect our 100k Nightfall runs, going nuts when our newest teammate that just started playing got his Lunafaction boots so we could finally do the Cluster bomb 1 phase Riven fight. SO many memories playing this game, I really wish Bungie wouldn't have sent the game into the microtransaction toilet in the last year or two of its life, I'm really going to miss it and hope one day another game comes along that gives me the same kind of feeling Destiny 1 and 2 did.
You can grab the Chalice for Ir Yut without starting the encounter by jumping on the wall and jumping towards the ceiling and grabbing it through the ceiling. You still need to go up and kill the shriekers, but It allows for a much smoother path to a first damage phase as it gives you a bit of extra time before the wipe mechanic auto kicks in. Highly recommend for teams that are getting overwhelmed.
*I am not sure if enlightened Carrie’s over between phases. My team had a member get enlightened at the start, but couldn’t enter the doors during the second wizard killing phase.
Enlightened does carry between phases, but it seems that becoming Enlightened mid-dps prevents you from entering the green doors. Probably a bug, but it's consistent between groups. Can still use it to expunge though.
Pretty solid video guide showing the spot on Cheese's channel!
@@StrikingIke386 My team was able to become enlightened during DPS and enter doors. At one point somebody couldn't once though, seems like it's inconsistent but was consistent enough for us. Also might've just been that the person went in and got pushed out immediately somehow, not sure
@@customcuber3692 huh weird. We’ll have to play around with it a bit more. It was happening consistently, but not 100% of the time to us.
Man that music gets me so hype
pyrogale gauntlets, consecration and monte carlo was going absolutely INSANE for add clear during Ir Yut. would highly reccommend for titans. plus it is VERY fun
Ty again datto all lfg teams thank you
It’s that time of the year again
Day one we five manned the lamp section and I have to say it was some of the most fun I’ve had in D2 in a while
Perfect timing
