Introduction

Faction missions are not available to all characters straight away. Into Darkness will become available when you have 250 Item Power and have also completed Confrontations and Revelations (Kaidan Storyline). 

To pick up the mission Into Darkness, you need to head over to the Activities Board in Agartha at 533 x 224. 

Because it is a faction mission, the start to the mission varies depending on whether you are Templar, Dragon or Illuminati. The main part of the mission starts by heading to the Subway Station entrance in New York, opposite the Laundromat at 363 x 406

 

Head down the stairs to the gated entrance. Depending on your Item Power, you will get a list of difficulty levels to choose from.

Tip from Ambitious: If you turn your headlamp off after opening the first gate, you can run between the mobs because they only see you if you bump into them!
 

 

When you have defeated him, collect your loot then head out the parking garage. Go up the stairs to continue the mission, then back to your faction handler to complete.
