While the quest for the Black Spindle might have spent weeks occupying Destiny 2 players’ imaginations, the new Whisper of the Worm quest line is currently occupying their latest efforts. Guardians across the world are seeking out the exotic Whisper of the Worm rifle, and the road to the new weapon is one that will eventually lead players to acquire an Enigmatic Blueprint for a new exotic ship. Completing the quest and unlocking the blueprint’s three different ship schematics involves a few steps, the likes of which we’ve spelled out below.
The Whisper on Heroic – Five Hidden Chests
The first step toward earning the Enigmatic Blueprint involves completing the quest known as The Whisper. Once that’s completed, players will then be able to play the quest over again in Heroic mode, and this time around they’ll need to be on the lookout for five hidden chests as well as a Vex gate toward the end of the mission.
The first hidden chest can be found near the start of the massive jumping puzzle. Just after making the first leap but before dropping down to the ledge, look near the right-hand side of the wall to spot a small alcove with the chest inside.
The second hidden chest is located within the rooms with the different tunnels. Normally Guardians would be heading toward the one on the far right-hand side of the room; instead, look for the tunnel on the left-hand side, toward the top at the back of the area. Walk inside the tunnel to find the second chest.
The third hidden chest is in the area with the grassy stone floors separated by a massive canyon. Look toward the left wall of the path — in a dark spot at the bottom of the wall, not far from the giant stone sphere, players will find a short tunnel. Follow it, then look for another small entryway near the ground that leads to the chest.
The fourth hidden chest is not far from the third — players have to climb up and out of the aforementioned area, and when they do, they’ll be funneled into a dark passage containing the next hidden chest.
The fifth and final hidden chest will be located directly behind the Vex gate, requiring Guardians to make a careful leap to a small platform jutting out from a nearby tower.
The Vex Gate and the Seven Oracles’ Pattern
After grabbing the fifth hidden chest, players turning to the Vex gate will note the appearance of seven oracles which show up when facing away from the gate itself. They’ll seemingly be filtering in and out of reality at random, disappearing only to reappear later — however, there is a pattern to be discovered. Eventually, all seven oracles will appear at once, and in this time frame the party must shoot them in a very specific order. These numbers correlate to the oracles when seen from left to right:
• First round, shoot oracles 1, 3, and 5.
• Second round, shoot oracles 4, 6, 7, 3, and 1.
• Third round, shoot oracles 7, 3, 1, 6, 4, 2, and 5.
When the oracles have been shot in the proper order for each of the three rounds, a sixth and final chest will appear near the Vex Gate. Open it to find the Enigmatic Blueprint, a set of schematics for an exotic ship. The work isn’t over yet, though — in order to complete the Enigmatic Blueprint, the player must first complete The Whisper quest on heroic with three specific weekly modifiers.
Completing The Enigmatic Blueprint – Arc Singe, Solar Singe, Void Singe
Looking at the Enigmatic Blueprint, Guardians will note a description stating that The Whisper must be completed along with three weekly, elemental modifiers: Arc Singe, Solar Singe, and Void Singe. Each of these modifiers will be changed with Destiny 2 weekly resets, meaning players will have to complete the mission once each week to mark off the requirement for each elemental singe. As such, it could take up to three weeks to complete the blueprint, assuming players are able to take down the mission after each weekly reset.
We haven’t been able to complete the Enigmatic Blueprint just yet — technically, no one has, but we’ll be sure to update this guide with more information on completing the exotic ship blueprint as it becomes available.
