Spire of Stars may be the Hardest Raid Ever Made in Destiny 2 and maybe just in Destiny past as a whole. Some people will say it's Last Wish, Vault of Glass, etc. but after watching this video your opinion may sway the other way. You may think the next raid will be the hardest and I will probably agree with you, but for now meet Val Ca'uor and Spire of Stars! This video covers Warmind DLC, Worlds First Spire of Stars, Prestige mode, loot, and my final thoughts on this one!

Spire is actually one of my favorite raids, it’s challenging, but it’s pretty satisfying when you beat it. In my quest to collect all the ugly armor before it gets vaulted, I ended up guiding a lot of new players through it and it was kinda fun to teach and guide them through the fight and hear how happy they were over the mic when they beat it for the first time and got the emote. It’s a shame it’s getting vaulted, maybe they’ll bring the whole leviathan back in a few years and hopefully give the raids new and better loot.

Spire of stars is by far my most favorite raid because of that difficulty. To this day, the music, the boss, and everything about it makes this raid worth the lack of loot for having fun. This raid has been the only raid since last wish day one, to still make my heart race upon getting a successful damage phase with only an auto, a shotgun, and a sword on prestige. Prestige just adding to that difficulty when its the right loadout and modifiers. I really hope they bring back this raid at a later date with actual loot, fixed bugs, and maybe even a new encounter of sorts.

[@mulliganlounge6912]

I personally love spire of stars... WHEN I GET A GOOD FIRETEAM. Spire is one of the worst and most painful raids to run when your fireteam is full of idiots and one guy who lies of running spire in a kwtd lfg. The loot in spire is pretty eh, but the sidearm is pretty fun to use though. I really wish more people would run spire since I always have a super fun time when ever I’m in a good fireteam. Edit: I forgot to mention I love the concept of spire, leviathan was like a game show where you prove to calus your worthy of his weapons and respect, eater felt more like a test to prove your worthy of being a shadow, and spire felt like it was your first mission for calus.

whisper and outbrake runs are so much fun. when i was bored i used to carry lfg blueberries all the time. those are the golden days.

Looking at that power conduit encounter room made me drool thinking of well skating in there

I love the mantis lords music in the background. I love hollow knight

[@gchompm823]

Very nice touch with the music, hardest raid paired with the hardest bosses’ themes in gaming history.

[@Derankii]

Man watching your vids TODAY, months after content was vaulted. Really makes me regret being shy and not going on LFGs back then. I missed out on a lot of things because I was too shy

[@YodasHondaCivic]

Xol Should've had his own raid hes a worm god hes in direct commune with the darkness, granted hes the weakest wormgod but still BRUH

[@fatebringerinfected799]

Yup u are right

[@Lawrentz82]

I was so disappointed with that strike..Xol's battle should have been so much harder

[@Bigdaddy93413]

Xol saw the shit Oryx was pulling and said “I’m gonna do that”. Xol basically chose to die to feed on the light.

Take a shot every time he says ‘ball’

[@vozsr4653]

I remember the first time I did this raid when me and some friends came back from like a month long break cause we were just burned and we immediately got hooked on this raid cause of the immense challenge it was back then.

[@Prittyboy203Gaming]

Man this was a awesome nostalgia rush it reminded me of when I was under leveled for the my first vault of glass run it took I think the first people to finish 16 hours or something crazy but fatebringer vex omg gotta get back into rains also the taking king rain was so much fun

[@rudeoff]

I've seen and taught countless good raiders how to complete SoS. This was one of my favorite raids, probably because of how difficult it was for most people.

[@Jakepotatoaim]

The starting mission is the hardest raid

[@Damercenary]

That's cause we r getting raided(assuming red war)

[@voidwalker9939]

@Sylis TM probably the walking simulator XD

[@alexfisher1057]

Literally every video on this channel is a banger

[@angelnieves6548]

Warmind will always be on of my favorite expansions getting things like sleeper, Polaris and whisper was one of the greatest feeling I’ve ever had in Destiny combined with the story of warmind I thoroughly enjoyed it

[@RandomUser7777777]

I miss this raid. This one and Leviathan. The other sunset raids don’t make me as sad (though scrounge is way good) but man, I miss them and hope they will come back soon because 2 D1 raids have so why not bring these guys back? I loved the look of the Levi gear and would like to see some random rolls and adepts (with the prestige look/glow)

[@xplosives1752]

Mantis lords music! Didn’t realize you’d played hollow knight, pleasant surprise

[@matthewloiselle8430]

I noticed that too. Mantis lords is the best hollow knight music, and sisters of battle is the best boss

[@xplosives1752]

Matthew Loiselle gotta be pure vessel imo but that’s in my top 3

[@hanzoshimada6655]

@@xplosives1752 I enjoy massive moss charger and grub mother(but for real I like nightmare king Grimm)

[@matthewloiselle8430]

@@xplosives1752 to each their own, but both our opinions are wrong. The best boss is zote

[@xplosives1752]

1. Pure vessel 2. NKG 3. Absolute Radiance 4. Sisters of Battle 5. Hollow Knight (even though it’s not too hard it’s fun)

[@_Harvestman_]

I gotta be honest. These essays have done more to teach me how to do the raids than any other video. This is better than the kackis tutorials for getting me to understand how to play the raids

[@zeronetwork594]

The boss theme is just so good, the remix of guardian in it is 👌

[@nicholas7203]

It’s hard because everyone has to do something so no getting carried. Everyone must perform their role perfectly

[@DetectiveWarden]

The Raid where you start to realize how bad your teammates actually are.

[@xrstevenson]

*hardest raid in Destiny* Me: *does the prestige first and never doing it normally*

[@meikl777]

Well thats a fucking lie because you had to do normal to even play prestige ...

[@SadFace_]

@@meikl777 if he did it after year 1(I think after Shadowkeep?) you can play prestige before normal

[@meikl777]

@@SadFace_ oh they changed it right? Well overleveled with all the good weapons makes it easier i guess 😅

[@SadFace_]

@@meikl777 yeah they changed it to allow newer players to hop into prestige without needing to do normal(to Sherpa prestige). Makes it slightly easier, but it’s still harder than normal

[@meikl777]

@@SadFace_ i mean it really depends if u get a nice loadout with that melee/weapon buff its super easy

[@mattanderson7973]

Loved this raid. Didn't get into it until it was going to be sunset. Ran it at least once weekly for the Sleeper Catalyst at this point. Trolling new people with the explosive charges and the red plates was always a blast.

[@ShreddedNerd]

When you described the content in Warmind it made me realise just how pitiful the current seasons are for 2/3rds of the cost.

[@themellonman9886]

I must admit, Val Ca'uor is personally one of my favourite raid bosses. Everything about him seems spot on even his name is cool.

[@misfortune1698]

I love how much grimm's theme fit so well

[@druidbybirth7696]

Spire, my bread and butter. i joined D2 in jan 2020, first raid was spire and then got my 5 man flawless in feb 2020. over 200 sherpas. this raid is love.

youre a fantastic youtuber, great video's and you always include the timestamps of each topic. you need way more that 147k subs

[@chetacheese2789]

Ok, was not expecting the mantis lords music, but it was a welcome surprise

[@babyyodaforpresident5373]

Dude, the Spire Of Stars, in my opinion... isnt that hard when you all got wardcliff coil on for the boss fight

[@meikl777]

With people that know every encounter very well and know what to do what happens all the time aka carry their own weight i agree with u But i never had this experience, there was always a fresh player, someone who did it the first time, someone who isnt that great of a player so always doing the job of 2-3 people makes it hard 😅 loved it tho, most of the time it was friends i helped and it also proved myself worthy of carrying some dudes

[@itstoothless8249]

Spire of Stars: how to make something difficult, but fun. Crown of Sorrow: How to make something difficult, and so annoying that you want to bash your skull in.

[@dinkydoodle8325]

Crown isn't that difficult

[@gannonjones7614]

Switch those 2 around, and you've got something

[@pumpkintaco3876]

I love the sisters of battle song (the Mantis Lords theme)

[@alexfrye8542]

The radiance's theme used to represent val co'uor is way to fitting

[@sambauer4094]

Not counting Oryx for lore reasons, Val Ca'uor is the first female raid boss

[@Naper675]

????

[@skully1562]

Before Oryx was The Taken King he (she) was one of the pre-speices of hive and was one of the three royal sisters

[@Ace.On.YouTube]

This actually isn’t true. Calus has a line of dialogue in this raid that refers to Ca’uor as ‘him’. Also Destinypedia has him listed as ‘male’.

[@gusradke]

Just did a raid-a-thon yesterday. SoS was our shortest one.

[@cutiko]

The 1st time we clear this raid, there were soo many glitches with the ball throwing, I didn't went back for a year after that, only now for getting moments of triumph

[@JWolfiez]

That boss room was HELL ON EARTH. I finished one time for Age of Triumph and never touched it again. I can imagine Prestige being like having to go through an apocalypse just to get to damage

[@aetherfukz]

I watched the raid race for the first time recently with Deep Stone Crypt, and got kinda hooked and found your great videos on all these day 1 races and am now going through all of em :) Subscribed, great content! Also holy shit redeem getting world first with a substitute that didn't even speak much english, damn.
