The '''Sanctified Mind''' is a | The '''Sanctified Mind''' is a [[Vex]] [[Axis Mind]], and the final boss of the [[Garden of Salvation]] [[Raid]]. Following the events of the ''[[Shadowkeep]]'' campaign, it had made contact with one of the [[Pyramid Scale]]s to empower the [[Sol Divisive]] with its [[Darkness]], only to be defeated by the Guardians. | ||
== | ==Overview== | ||
The Sanctified Mind is | The Sanctified Mind is an Axis Mind of the [[Sol Divisive]] whose solemn duty was to commune with a [[Pyramid Scale]] found in the [[Black Garden]], which involved the Vex harvesting their radiolarian fluid in the process to reap its [[Darkness]]. Much like the [[Consecrated Mind]] before it, the Sanctified Mind seems to have been warped by exposure to the [[paracausality]] of the [[Pyramids]]. Instead of the brass-like metal of ordinary Vex, much of its chassis resembles more closely the rough stone used in Vex architecture (and indeed becomes an inanimate stone statue when defeated), and sprouts glowing blue tentacles, as well as orange ones at times. Its primary photoreceptors appear to be non-functional, and instead it sports spherical masses in one shoulder and one thigh that each contain a glowing red photoreceptor. | ||
When the Guardians entered into the Black Garden to intercept the source of a signal emanating from the [[Unknown Artifact]], the Sol Divisive sent its legions of Vex to keep the Guardians from disrupting the Sanctified Mind.

Unfortunately, the Mind would be defeated and become petrified by the Guardians as they located the signal which derived from a veiled statue, similar to the one found in the Pyramid on Luna in the mission [[Beyond]]. | ||

After around 20 seconds, both of Sanctified Mind’s photoreceptors (the red, glowing circles that appear on its shoulder and thigh) will begin to glow, signaling they are vulnerable. Shooting these photoreceptors open up a portal with a corresponding color to the side that was shot (Left is Blue, Right is Orange) that leads to a section of the encounter that is separated from the main area. Within these portals are sets of Vex that come in one of two variants: | ||

Successful sacrifices will drain ten Motes from the Relay they sacrificed near. If a Relay reaches energy below zero, all Guardians are killed. | ||

These shields will not appear on any side with a Relay that is pulsing with energy (40 total motes, or 30 deposited). | ||
After around five minutes, or when both Relays are pulsing with energy, Sanctified Mind will begin casting an attack that will kill all Guardians after one minute, spawning a single Angelic in the process. While casting this attack, Sanctified Mind will lift up an object that is either Blue or Orange. This can be only be avoided by connecting the tether from a Relay that is both pulsing with energy and is the same color. Once this connects, the boss becomes vulnerable to all damage, and shortly after will fly into the air. Players can choose to use the other Relay (if pulsing with energy) to connect to boss during this phase, but this is optional. | After around five minutes, or when both Relays are pulsing with energy, Sanctified Mind will begin casting an attack that will kill all Guardians after one minute, spawning a single Angelic in the process.

Upon Team | Upon destroying the first photoreceptor (either left or right), the players designated to Team One should enter. During this time, Defenders should be doing their tasks with the assistance of Team Two. Upon Team One’s callout, players in the main area should shoot the photoreceptor of the side Team One is currently on. This will bring Team One back to main area, and open a new portal that Team Two should enter. Team One should then deposit their motes. Likewise, when Team Two is completed inside their portal and have called to be brought back to the main area, the correct photoreceptor should be destroyed. Ideally, after Team Two deposits, the Relay should become pulsing with energy. This will not be the case if motes were missed such that the total across both teams is less than 30, or a Goblin sacrificed to that Relay. If either are the case, a player, ideally a player on the Defending team, should enter the portal of the side Team Two just returned from. | ||

Medium-long range weapons are ideal to use for damage, as Sanctified Mind flies into the air during damage, making close range weapons unusable and close-medium range weapons outside of optimal range. Snipers and Grenade Launchers are most commonly used, while strong Exotics are: [[Xenophage]], [[Whisper of the Worm]], [[One Thousand Voices]], and [[Izanagi’s Burden]]. | |||
