Week 4's mission is the most straightforward yet. Simply follow the markers to each location and literally kill everything that moves:

  • Upon spawning into the mission, move forward and kill all of the Scorn in the area.
  • When you reach the busted terminal, turn around and head straight. Proceed through the flooded room and take a left where the hallway reaches a dead end.
  • At the end of the hall will be a wrench. Take it to the busted terminal.
  • In the next room, eliminate all of the Scorn and place the first Ritual Amplifier.
  • Go back into the main room and head upward to watch Zavala have another marital dispute.
  • Proceed down the hallway and place the second Ritual Amplifier.
  • Continue to the circular hallway and to the end. Shoot the Egregore Spore and then head down the hole behind you.
  • Place the Rally Banner and then begin the Severance Ritual.
