Discover every catalyst for Barrow-Dyad in Destiny 2 Heresy. Unlock powerful upgrades and enhance your gameplay with our comprehensive guide!
The Barrow-Dyad is a powerful, craftable Exotic SMG introduced during Destiny 2's Heresy season. This Taken-themed weapon fires unique Blighted projectiles and offers a similar feel to the popular Quicksilver Storm. To further enhance its capabilities, Barrow-Dyad features four distinct Exotic catalysts, each providing significant improvements to its performance and utility. This guide will detail how to unlock each of these catalysts.
Destiny 2 Heresy: Every Catalyst For Barrow-Dyad
Barrow-Dyad Catalyst - High-Impact Reserves
- Unlock Quest: A Needle's Path
- Unlock Activity: Expert Court of Blades
- Catalyst Perk: High-Impact Reserves
- How to Unlock: The quest "A Needle's Path" for the High-Impact Reserves catalyst is believed to drop upon completing an Expert Court of Blades run while having the Barrow-Dyad SMG equipped. You gain access to the Court of Blades activity at the beginning of Act 2 of the Heresy seasonal storyline. While not fully confirmed, it's also thought that you need to be at Rank 12 of the Shaping Slab while on the Path of Resolve to trigger the quest drop.
- Quest Steps:
- Complete another Expert Court of Blades run. For this step, you must equip a long-range loadout, specifically using Scout Rifles, Linear Fusion Rifles, and Sniper Rifles, alongside the Barrow-Dyad.
- During the Court of Blades run, you can choose to wait for the timer to expire to spawn the final boss.
- Defeat the final boss quickly using your Heavy weapon or Super. Upon the boss's defeat, the High-Impact Reserves catalyst trait will be unlocked for crafting on your Barrow-Dyad.
Barrow-Dyad Catalyst - Hatchling
- Unlock Location: The Nether activity (inside The Tenchway tileset)
- Catalyst Perk: Hatchling
- How to Unlock:
- Load into The Nether activity, which is located within The Tenchway tileset.
- Once inside the Dreadnaught, proceed towards a cluster of spores situated in the corner of one of the platforms.
- At the spore cluster, pull out your Ghost. This will reveal a series of hidden platforms.
- Carefully hop across these hidden platforms until you reach a gap in the wall.
- Interact with a device on the left wall within this area. This interaction will summon a portal that leads to a series of chests.
- Opening these chests will grant you the quest for Barrow-Dyad's Hatchling Catalyst.
- Quest Steps: The guide mentions two steps for this quest, but the specifics are not detailed in the provided text. You will need to follow the in-game quest prompts to complete it.
- Found Lacking Bug: Some players have reported an issue where they are unable to interact with the device to open the catalyst portal. If you encounter this, try joining a fireteam with another player who is able to open the portal for you.
Barrow-Dyad Catalyst - One For All
- Unlock Quest: A Hundredfold Path
- Unlock Activity: Sunless Cell Strike
- Catalyst Perk: One for All
- How to Unlock: Once you progress to the third Act of the Heresy seasonal storyline, you will unlock the Sunless Cell strike and be required to complete it as part of the story.
- Quest Start: Complete the Sunless Cell strike with the Barrow-Dyad SMG equipped. This will initiate the "A Hundredfold Path" quest chain for the One for All catalyst.
- Quest Completion: The guide directs you to their "One for All Catalyst guide" for specific instructions on how to complete this quest. You will need to refer to that separate guide for the detailed steps.
Barrow-Dyad Catalyst - Target Lock
- Unlock Quest: A Silken Path
- Unlock Activity: The Nether
- Catalyst Perk: Target Lock
- How to Unlock: Unlocking the Target Lock Catalyst is described as "surprisingly tricky" and involves collecting three Coalescence of the Knife consumables.
- Coalescence of the Knife Sources:
- Reach Rank 12 with the Shaping Slab while on the Path of Ambition. This suggests a requirement related to your progression with the seasonal crafting system and a specific path choice.
- Complete an Expert Nether run with Barrow-Dyad equipped and two close-range weapons—Shotguns, Glaives, and Swords. This indicates a specific loadout requirement for an Expert run of The Nether activity.
- "Mission Dossier: Blade Logic" quest. This suggests a questline that rewards one of the consumables.
- The Founts - Hidden rune chest. Finding and opening a specific hidden chest in The Founts location will grant one.
- Hull Breach - Hidden Cabal chest. Locating and opening a specific hidden Cabal chest in the Hull Breach area will grant the final one.
- Quest Initiation: Once you have acquired all three Coalescence of the Knife consumables, you will likely need to complete the "A Silken Path" quest to finally unlock the Target Lock Catalyst. The specific steps of this quest are not detailed in the provided text.
By following these steps and potentially consulting additional guides for the "One for All" and "Target Lock" catalyst quests, you will be able to unlock all four powerful Exotic catalysts for your Barrow-Dyad SMG in Destiny 2's Heresy season in Caracas! Good luck, Guardian!
