Step 3: Dominate the Prison of Elders…Twice…With the Same Guardian
The Prison of Elders arena activity is the meat and potatoes of House of Wolves‘ PvE content. This horde mode is played with two other guardians and starts at Level 28. The good thing is that if you want to play Prison of Elders at level 28 there is matchmaking, something that will make this first part really easy. No having to wait for friends in order to tackle Destiny‘s latest challenge. If you do have friends ready though, tackle the arena at Level 32 where you will receive an Armor Core. This item can be traded to Variks, the Loyal for that armor piece you should have checked out in the first step.
If all of the previous steps have been done correctly (and you started with a Level 32 guardian) then you should now have a Level 33 guardian ready to wreak havoc in the Prison of Elders, yet again only this time at Level 34. This will not be easy, but the reward will definitely be worth the trouble since players will receive one of Destiny‘s new materials introduced in House of Wolves, Etheric Light.
Etheric Light is a material that will allow players to raise the Light of any Legendary item to the maximum potential. This means a guardian will be able to hit Light Level 34 using old legendaries such as raid or Iron Banner equipment. Players should now have a guardian that is almost Level 34 with only a couple more steps to go.
