Facing the Enemy
Once your Fireteam lands on Venus, you’ll immediately want to hop on your Sparrow. You’ll have a short drive to the Strike mission area.
Once you’re in Campus 9 in the Ishtar Sink, you’ll be introduced to enemy gunfire. During my encounters with this Strike, I faced numerous Fallen enemies. There will be snipers located all around the buildings. Your priority is to take them out before they leave holes in your Fireteam.
In the Echo Chamber Strike, Bungie introduces a new mechanic like the one seen in the Fallen S.A.B.E.R. Strike — relics. You must grab these glowing bowling ball lookalikes and put them inside a terminal to unlock the next area. The relic located in Campus 9 is underneath the main platforms to the left, simply follow the shallow creek to the caves.
The relic will be guarded by two yellow bar Axis Harpies. These shouldn’t be a problem and can easily be defeated if the Fireteam focuses on them. Behind the two floating robots lies the Arc Charge that you need to pick up.
Have yourself or another member of your Fireteam pick up the glowing orb. Once picked up, the carrier of the item will be thrown into third-person view and run extremely slow. Their stats are increased and this allows the carrier of the orb to chuck grenades fairly often. Other Guardians must protect the carrier since they cannot shoot. The orb holder must put the relic inside a switch on the far end of the Campus 9 area. Nothing too hard here, just focus fire and protect the carrier.
Enter the next destination.
