Destiny 2 Root of Nightmares Raid Boost

Root of Nightmares is one of the most rewarding — and frustrating — endgame activities in Destiny 2. With craftable and insanely powerful weapons, stunning armor, an exotic shotgun that dominates in both PvP and PvE, it’s no surprise that this raid is a top priority for serious players. The catch? It's locked behind a weekly RNG, hidden puzzle plates, and LFG fireteams that wipe before reaching Macrocosm.

LevelUpper saves you the headache. Whether you want a quick clear, a flawless run, or Master difficulty completion with Adept drops — we handle it all. We also farm red borders, complete puzzle sequences for guaranteed Deepsight weapons, and grind triumphs for your Dream Warrior title. Need Conditional Finality? We’ll take down Nezarec weekly until you get it. Want a specific weapon like Rufus’s Fury or Acasia’s Dejection? We’ll farm it until it’s yours — or craftable. You get top-tier loot without endless retries, unreliable teams, or wasted time.

Root of Nightmares Overview

Legendary Weapons

Root of Nightmares features six legendary weapons — all craftable, raid-exclusive, and viable across both PvE and PvP.

  • Rufus’s Fury – Strand Auto Rifle with Reconstruction + Target Lock for top-tier PvE, or Tap the Trigger for PvP accuracy.
  • Briar’s Contempt – Solar Linear Fusion with Envious Assassin + Focused Fury, great for boss DPS.
  • Acasia’s Dejection – Solar Trace Rifle with Incandescent + Reconstruction — a perfect Solar 3.0 synergy tool.
  • Koraxis’s Distress – Strand Wave-Frame GL ideal for adds-clear and crowd control.
  • Mykel’s Reverence – Strand Sidearm with Pugilist and Swashbuckler.
  • Nessa’s Oblation – Slug Shotgun with Reconstruction and Vorpal Weapon. Great for boss burns and various PvE activities.

All can be farmed via encounters or puzzle completion. Need just one? Use our targeted weapon boosts like Rufus’s Fury Boost or Koraxis’s Distress Boost.

Exotic Shotgun – Conditional Finality

Conditional Finality is one of the most powerful exotic shotguns in Destiny 2. It fires both Stasis and Solar slugs, allowing it to freeze and ignite targets in a single shot — perfect for shutting down enemies in PvE or catching opponents off-guard in Trials of Osiris.

This weapon drops exclusively from Nezarec, the final boss of the Root of Nightmares raid. Unfortunately, it’s tied to weekly RNG, which can make farming it a frustrating experience. That’s where we come in. With our Guaranteed Conditional Finality Boost, we’ll run Nezarec for you every reset — or as often as needed — until it finally drops. No RNG burnout, just results.

 

Root of Nightmares Armor

The Root of Nightmares raid offers a visually striking armor set that also delivers serious performance. Each piece has a chance to roll with high Resilience, Recovery, or Discipline, making it a top-tier option for PvE-focused loadouts. In addition to its stat potential, this set is highly flexible for transmog and works well with a wide variety of shaders and ornaments — perfect for players who care about both looks and functionality. Full sets are required to complete the Dream Warrior badge, and we can farm all five pieces per class or fill in any missing slots you need. Whether you’re aiming for aesthetics, high-stat builds, or badge completion, we’ll secure the entire set for you.

Deepsight Weapon Versions

Every legendary weapon in this raid is craftable, but requires five Deepsight (red border) versions.

  • RNG-based drops from raid encounters.
  • Weekly puzzle completion guarantees one red border drop.
  • Farming these manually may take months.

We solve the puzzle each run and target weapon drops until you unlock the crafting pattern. Check out our bundle boosts for Acasia’s Dejection, Briar’s Contempt, and more.

Secret Chests

Hidden throughout the raid are two secret chests packed with bonus loot.

  • Contain Spoils of Conquest — used for legacy exotic weapons and random raid weapons.
  • Duplicate rewards based on what you’ve previously earned.
  • Can include red border versions of owned weapons.

We open both chests on every run. Already own everything? Use the spoils to buy god rolls from the Monument to Lost Light.

Triumphs & Dream Warrior Seal

The Root of Nightmares raid is tied to the Dream Warrior seal — a title reserved for Guardians who’ve mastered every challenge this activity offers. To unlock it, you’ll need to complete all encounter-specific triumphs, handle rotating weekly challenges, execute a flawless run without a single death, and solve the secret puzzle tied to red border rewards. Most of these tasks require coordination, precision, and a fireteam that knows exactly what it’s doing — something most LFG groups can’t guarantee.

We complete even the most complex triumphs, such as:

  • Singular Orbit – In Macrocosm, a player cannot gain Planetary Insight twice in the same Planetary Shift.
  • Synchronicity – During the final battle with Nezarec, activate both sets of nodes within 5 seconds of each other, for every activation, and complete the encounter.
  • Psionic Purge – In Cataclysm, defeat all Psions within 1 second of each other.
  • Final Nightmare – Complete all encounter challenges on Master difficulty.

LevelUpper takes all of that off your shoulders. We’ll track your triumph progress, close out every objective you’re missing, and run the raid as many times as needed — including Master difficulty if required. Whether you're one clear away from the title or just starting out, we’ll handle every step until the Dream Warrior seal is fully unlocked on your account. You get the title, the badge, and everything in between — without dealing with the hassle.

Puzzle Completion

Each encounter has hidden plates tied to a secret raid puzzle. Solve them all in one run and receive a guaranteed red border drop at the final chest.

  • Puzzle is hidden and resets weekly.
  • Requires perfect coordination to trigger each plate.
  • Red border is random — any of the six weapons.

Skip the guides and the wipes. We solve every puzzle during your raid boost to guarantee you get your free red drop — every week.

Dominate the Root of Nightmares Raid with LevelUpper

No matter what you're chasing in the Root of Nightmares raid — a flawless clear, the Conditional Finality exotic, red border patterns for craftable weapons, or your final triumphs for the Dream Warrior seal — LevelUpper gets it done. We don’t touch unsafe tools or outsourced boosters. Every run is handled by real Destiny 2 veterans who’ve perfected every plate mechanic, puzzle sequence, and DPS window in this raid.

Need a full clear from start to finish? Or maybe just farming Rufus’s Fury or Acasia’s Dejection until you unlock the pattern? We’ll do it. Trying to grab Adept loot from Master difficulty? Or wrap up the collection badge with every cosmetic? We’ll handle it. Piloted or Self-Play, single run or scheduled farming — our boosts are tailored to your goals.

Root of Nightmares Clear

Sick of unreliable LFG groups and constant wipes? Our team will carry you through every encounter — fast, coordinated, and with zero confusion. You’ll get full loot from all bosses, both hidden chests, a chance at Conditional Finality, Spoils of Conquest, and triumph progress. Whether it’s your first raid or your fiftieth, this is the cleanest way to secure rewards and move on. Choose Piloted or Self-Play — you get the loot, we handle the hard part.

Flawless Raid Completion

Flawless clears in Root of Nightmares aren’t just for bragging rights — they’re required for certain triumphs and the shader. One death ruins the run. But for us, flawless raids are routine. We’ll coordinate the full raid without a single Guardian falling, completing every encounter without error.

Secret Puzzle for Guaranteed Deepsight Weapon

Root of Nightmares contains a weekly puzzle — a sequence of hidden plates scattered through each encounter. When activated in the right order, they unlock a guaranteed Deepsight (red border) weapon at the end of the raid. Solving it requires precise timing and full encounter knowledge. We solve it every week — no missed steps, no delays. Want consistent red border progress? This is your best path. We’ll clear the puzzle and complete the raid — while you relax.

Master Root of Nightmares Completion

Master difficulty in Root of Nightmares transforms each encounter into a true endgame challenge. Guardians are permanently capped 20 levels below the recommended Power Level, making every mistake punishing. Champions are everywhere, enemies hit harder, and execution needs to be near perfect — random fireteams usually don’t stand a chance.

But the rewards make it worth it. Completing Master challenges guarantees Adept raid weapons like Rufus’s Fury and Briar’s Contempt — featuring enhanced stats, extra perks, and access to Adept mods. You'll also receive high-stat armor focused on a rotating stat, as well as exclusive cosmetics like the Exotic ship and Dream Demon Sparrow. Master mode is mandatory for unlocking key triumphs tied to the Dream Warrior seal — and we’ll help you get it all.

Root of Nightmares Last Boss Kill

Only care about the exotic? We’ve got you. We’ll kill Nezarec and open the final chest — the only place Conditional Finality drops. It’s the most efficient way to focus on the exotic without running the whole raid. Whether you’ve already cleared the earlier encounters or want to skip straight to the boss, this service gets it done weekly — fast, clean, and with no wasted effort.

Guaranteed Conditional Finality

Still waiting on Conditional Finality to drop? We’ll keep killing Nezarec until it’s yours — guaranteed. No more hoping. No more wasted clears. Every drop stays on your account, including red borders, armor, and Spoils of Conquest. Conditional Finality remains one of the most versatile PvE and PvP exotics in the game — and we’ll secure it for you. Select the guaranteed option and leave the rest to us.

Root of Nightmares Raid Weapons Farm

Chasing a perfect roll or unlocking the pattern for crafting? We’ll farm any Root of Nightmares weapon you want — as many rolls as you need, or five red borders for full pattern unlock. Whether it's Rufus’s Fury, Briar’s Contempt, or Nessa’s Oblation, we handle the drops — including puzzle completions for guaranteed red borders. No RNG burnout. No missed checkpoints. Just your weapon, on your terms.

Root of Nightmares Raid Seal

Going for the Dream Warrior title?

Every challenge will be completed until the seal is yours.

Root of Nightmares Armor Set

The Root of Nightmares armor set offers more than just looks. With a chance to roll high Resilience, Recovery, or Discipline, it’s ideal for meta builds. Visually, it fits into unique transmog setups — from sleek to surreal — and works with a wide range of shaders. We’ll run the raid weekly until your full class set drops, covering all five pieces. Prefer transmog over stats? Or want both? Either way, we’ll secure it — no wasted runs.
