A Warlock rises from the ashes of an overrun world.

A Warlock Rises is one of three class-specific quests given to new characters in Destiny. This quest is automatically given upon loading into the game world for the first time. New Warlocks are tasked with locating a jumpship to escape the Fallen-controlled Cosmodrome in Old Russia and make it safely to the The Last City.[1]

Quest steps[edit]

1. Escape the Cosmodrome[edit]

"We're not safe out here, Guardian. I didn't find you just to lose you again. We need to get you behind the walls of the City." - Ghost

  • Find a ship and use it to escape to the City.

2. Speak to Ikora Rey[edit]

"The Tower is run by a group called the Vanguard. You'll report to Ikora, the Warlock representative. She's... very learned. Said to run a spy network called the Hidden. In any case, it's best to listen to her." - Ghost

  • Speak to Ikora in the Hall of Guardians at the Tower.

3. Accept the Warlock's Cache[edit]

"I joke with Cayde and Zavala about it all the time, but it's just one more way Warlocks are superior: our robes look *good*." - Ikora

  • Accept the Warlock's Cache from Ikora.

4. Equip Armor[edit]

"The market for Guardian armor is crowded with small outfits, specific vendors, scavengers... it's mostly Golden Age tech. Heavily repurposed, of course—why would you need armor in paradise?" - Ghost

  • Equip the new piece of armor you received from Ikora Rey.

5. Requisition a New Weapon[edit]

"As a Warlock, our most powerful weapon is knowledge. In the field, more direct methods are required. Speak to Banshee, the Tower's gunsmith. He will arm you well." - Ikora Rey

  • Requisition a weapon from Banshee-44.

6. Equip Weapon[edit]

"The market for weapons see fierce competition between the Foundries. The heavyweights are big boys like SUROS, Tex Mechanica, Häkke and Omolon, but there are always new names entering and leaving the field of battle." - Ghost

  • Equip the new weapon you received from Banshee-44.

7. Retrieve Your Ship[edit]

"Before we go anywhere, we'll need an update on our ship. That thing has been out of action for years. Hopefully Shipwright Holliday will have some good news for us." - Ghost

  • Check on the status of your ship with Amanda Holliday in the Tower Hangar.

Walkthrough[edit]

"Welcome to the last safe City on Earth — the only place the Traveler can still protect. It took centuries to build. Now... we're counting every day it stands. And this Tower is where the Guardians live."
Ghost

As a newborn Warlock, you must find a way to escape from the Cosmodrome while defending yourself from the Fallen. Make your way to The Last City, where you will become acquainted with the Tower and prepare for the next phase of your journey.[2]

Main article: A Guardian Rises

After viewing a few cutscenes and loading into the game world, you gain control of your character in the Gateway. Follow the objective marker to enter the Wall, hide from the Fallen and acquire a weapon. Fight your way through the Fallen to reach The Divide, where you must continue fighting the Fallen. Head to the building on the far left, then follow the subsequent path to reach Dock 13. Defeat the Fallen and their Captain to acquire an old jumpship and escape from the Cosmodrome.

After a couple more cutscenes, you materialize into the Tower Plaza. From there, go straight ahead, down the stairs and through the next hallway to enter the Hall of Guardians. Speak to Ikora Rey, the Warlock Vanguard, to receive the Warlock's Initiation, a small cache consisting Code Fire robes and 50 Glimmer. This will also unlock the first step of the quest Legend of the Warlock. After equipping your new armor, return to the plaza and the gunsmith Banshee-44, located next to the tree immediately to left as you enter. He will give you a choice of four common primary weapons. Equip your new weapon, then proceed to the hallway on the far right past the Cryptarch and follow the path to the Tower Hanger. Once there, proceed up the stairs to the far right to talk to shipwright Amanda Holliday. She repaired your ship and gives it back, but mentions that it lacks a warp drive. Accepting the ship completes this quest and unlock the first step of the next story quest, Nothing Left but the Fall.

Trivia[edit]

  • As the name suggests, this is one of the 3 beginner class quests that you will recieve when first entering the game world. This quest is identical on all 3 classes except the name of the quest, and the respective Vanguard leader for your class, who will be different depending on the class you choose, and will affect who you talk to during the quest, and who you collect vendor level up packages for the Vanguard from.
