Alright squad, listen up. So last night I was grinding deepsight in the Glykon, right? Totally distracted. Then this clanmate pings me: “Bro, did you snag all the new ghosts?” Ghosts? Man, I completely forgot about those ghosts in the new Deep Dive activity. Gotta have ’em all for the lore, you know how it is. Time to hunt.
The Stupidly Simple Prep (Seriously)
Didn’t wanna waste time. Hopped on my Titan – gotta be sturdy. Loadout was basic:
- Sweet Business (because BRRRRRRRT clears trash fast)
- Any solar scout rifle for the floaty jerks
- Grabbed Salvage mission (KEY – gotta be the actual mission from the map, NOT the playlist)
That’s literally it. No fancy mods. Figured I’d wing the rest.
The Actual Speedrun Madness
Spawned in. Ignored EVERYTHING. Didn’t shoot a single dreg. Just booked it straight past the first open area where you normally fight. Jumped down the hole into the big submerged hive tunnel bit. Keep moving forward underwater until you hit a big open chamber – looks like a hive cathedral drowned? Yeah, that spot.
Ghost Spot #1: The Obvious Ledge
Okay, first ghost was practically waving at me. After you swim into that big room, look immediately left when your head breaks the surface. Small ledge, ghost sitting right there. Picked it up before the Hive even noticed me. Easy.
Ghost Spot #2: Sneaky Alcove Swim
Swam deeper into the room. Saw the big structures in the water? Instead of heading towards the mission marker, I dove deep down into the murk near the back right corner (facing towards the exit tunnel). Found a hidden alcove tucked under some coral crap. Ghost #2 chilling on the floor like a lost seashell. Barely any oxygen left – spammed jump like a madman.
Ghost Spot #3: The Jump Puzzle Bait
Here’s where I almost screwed up. Pushed on like normal, fought the Ogre (Sweet Business ate it for breakfast, no sweat). Got to that annoying part where you gotta jump across sinking platforms? DON’T JUMP! Before you step on the first plate that starts the platforms sinking, look DOWN over the railing on your RIGHT side. See that little platform jutting out below? Yep. Ghost #3. Dropped down, grabbed it. Way faster than doing the puzzle.
Ghost Spot #4: Dark Hallway Detour
Kept pushing. Next big fight room, hive everywhere. Cleared it quick. Mission marker wants you to go down the hole? Hold up. Before you jump down, there’s a dark hallway on the LEFT side. Super easy to miss, looks like a dead end. Ran down it – totally empty – ghost #4 just sitting at the end waiting. Felt like cheating.
Ghost Spot #5: Literally By The Boss
Okay, final boss area. Killed the big Knight guy. As soon as he melted, mission timer ticking? Scanned the area. Ghost #5 was RIGHT THERE in the final chamber, tucked near some boxes on the left wall as you walk in. Couldn’t miss it if you tried. Grabbed it while loot popped up.
Checked the clock: 21 minutes flat. And that included wiping ONCE because I got too cocky with the Ogre. Barely fired at anything that wasn’t blocking a ghost path.
Honestly felt like highway robbery. Spent more time watching loading screens than hunting ghosts. Whole set in one quick mission run. Told my clanmate, he thought I was lying till he tried it. Now you know. Go get yours!
