Key tasks include killing designated enemies to gain "Planetary Insight," using this ability to identify planet colors, and exchanging outlier planets between team members to correctly align them.

Effective communication and coordination are essential for success. Players need to call out planet colors and work with their assigned partners to transport glowing orbs representing outlier planets correctly within a limited time frame. Strategic movement during the boss fight includes starting DPS when the boss descends and managing buffs by moving across plates to accommodate the changing colors indicated by the boss.

The final phase involves all plates turning orange, requiring precise timing and teamwork to ensure continuous damage to the boss. The video emphasizes maintaining a high level of coordination and invites viewers to provide feedback for future improvements.

In this part of the video, the creator provides a detailed guide on the planets encounter from the “Root of Nightmares” raid in Destiny 2. The main objective of this encounter is to collect and match light and dark planets. The team splits into sections for adds clearing and platform assignments. Four players are assigned to specific triangle platforms while two handle general adds clearing. Players must kill specific enemies called Centurions to spawn Colossus enemies on each platform, which are then defeated to gain the ability “planetary Insight.” This ability reveals the true colors of the planets, allowing players to identify and exchange outlier planets to organize all light planets on one side and dark planets on the other. Key tips include using a Scout rifle, avoiding killing Colossus enemies prematurely, and teamwork between designated ‘yellow’ and ‘blue’ triangle partners.

In this part of the video, viewers are instructed on how to identify and manage outlier planets in a game scenario involving triangles on a map. The key point is to have only light planets on the left side and dark planets on the right side of the map. Each player, referred to as a triangle Guardian, must determine which planet on their assigned triangle is the outlier. Players use the points of their triangle to specify the location of planets and work with a buddy, who is located directly across the map, to exchange the outlier planets. The interaction involves picking up the glowing orb under the outlier planet and dunking it into the correct spot on the buddy’s triangle. This needs to be done quickly before a planetary shift timer runs out. When done correctly, players receive a resonance confirming the task completion, which fully stocks the map with appropriately colored planets, allowing them to proceed to the next part.

During the DPS phase, players need to match their buffs (light or dark) to the boss’s color to damage it effectively.

Communication and coordination among team members are emphasized throughout the segment.
