The Warlord’s Ruin dungeon inDestiny 2easily stands out as one of the most interesting of the bunch in terms of overall flow, map layout, and encounter design. The related In The Shadow Of The Mountain quest gives players every opportunity to get used to the dungeon’s feel, and if you want to finish this quest, you’re definitely going to need to run Warlord’s Ruin multiple times.

Collecting Blighted Wishing Glass andDark Ether Tinctures in thisDestiny 2dungeonis rather simple — defeat bosses for the former, and kill Thieving Wretches (glowing Screebs) for the latter.
Bones of Hefnd
The real issue is collecting the Bones of Hefnd. You get your first one after beating Warlord’s Ruin the first time. As for the rest, you need to dispel Taken Corruption on locked doors scattered throughout the dungeon. The doors themselves are level-gated; you may only unlock level 2 and 3 doors after you complete steps 4 and 5. However, you can bypass this by having someone else who has already finished the quest open the doors for you.
For players who don’t want to completely miss out on exploring the dungeon, here are the general Bone of Hefnd locations inDestiny 2:
Keep in mind that finishing In The Shadow Of The Mountainwill not reward you with the dungeon exotic. You’ll get a random exotic for your class on top ofall the loot in the drop table for Warlord’s Ruin, assuming you ran the dungeon multiple times.
