Operation : Buried Debts – Escalation

Good work, Tenno. You’ve unearthed the secret lurking below known as Deck 12. But be wary, The Exploiter Orb Mother and a host of skittering Raknoids have made the platform and the surrounding area their home. It will take strength, fortitude and teamwork to destroy The Exploiter and avenge the fallen Solaris. Are you up to the challenge?

What You Need to Know:

Deck 12 is unlocked – if you know where to look. Work with Solaris United to take down The Exploiter while Operation: Buried Debts is still active! Every Diluted Thermia resource you’ve harvested will allow you an encounter with The Exploiter, you can stockpile, share, and more! You’ll only be able to take part in this event for a limited time, so be sure to take on The Exploiter or you’ll have to wait until Thermia Fractures re-appear.

The Plan:

The Exploiter has the ability to summon a powerful blizzard around itself, whipping up winds that can freeze you solid if you’re not careful. You must find a way to weaken the Orb Mother’s chilling abilities, pick apart its defenses, and ultimately settle the score.

The Rewards:

Defeating The Exploiter gives you a chance to earn:

• Hildryn Chassis Blueprint
• Hildryn Neuroptics Blueprint
• Hildryn Systems Blueprint
• Lazulite Toroid: A rare resource that is prized by Vox Solaris, trade it in for Standing!
• Exploiter Orb Articula: Add a miniature Exploiter Orb Mother decoration to your Orbiter
• Shocking Step Ephemera Blueprint: Craft this Ephemera to add a striking effect to your footsteps
• Freezing Step Ephemera Blueprint

FAQ:

*How often will I have a chance to acquire Hildryn’s blueprints?*

We’ve set up Hildryn in this event to be similar to Baro Ki’Teer in cadence. In the same way you can get Sands of Inaros from Baro Ki’Teer with Ducats when he visits regularly, you can use Thermia to get Hildryn. Fractures will occur often – like ghouls – to keep thermia in high supply. We’re also working on fracture improvementsOperation: Buried Debts will be frequent to make sure Hildryn’s available to all!

*Do we need the Archgun Deployer to fight The Exploiter Orb Mother?*

No, you do not need the Archgun Deployer! All you need is Diluted Thermia to start the fight and take her on.
