Noooot quite! There's a new puzzle in the Imbaru Engine, a new cutscene once it's completed, and the community is poring over it because it may contain the 15th wish.

Well, I'm totally stumped on the puzzle, so I click on the thread to see if anybody else is struggling with it and just totally get spoiled on the thing that the puzzle was going to reveal.

No, you spoiler tagged your poo poo and Bungie posted the tweet for public consumption, so it's fair game to post in the thread untagged. I'm just annoyed because I had figured out the rest of the Imbaru Engine by myself and I couldn't get this one and it would've been really cool to find that poo poo out for myself, but just seeing it in a tweet instead and then having to crawl to a youtube video to get the cutscene just.....bums me out.

How the gently caress did you figure out the floating shapes? Even esoterickk's guide is like "shoot this one - idk why, but its definitely this one."

I did notice that the icon for the imbaru engine had a weird spinny thing around it, but I just assumed it had always been there.

Used the little platforms on the sides so my line of sight had the proper floating shape aligned with the proper door.

Is there a guide to help find remaining opaque cards? Based on position in the deck, I'm missing card 16 and card 59. I can't seem to find a guide that breaks it down that way to find individual cards. I've only seen guides that go through finding every single card, which will be a huge chore to narrow down finding the two cards I'm missing.

For reference, I'm missing the card after "VI of Swords", and the card after "IX of Tablets", if that helps narrow it down at all.

The first one is the IX of Crystals, which is the seventh semi-hidden card in Savathun's Spire. When you reach the big open room with pillars and portals on the pillars, after the swinging lanterns on the walkways, turn back around towards where you came from and there's an opening to the right leading to a small alcove with the card.

The second one is the X of Crystals. Also in Savathun's Spire, when you get to the spot where it splits into four portals and there's a set of runes in the middle telling you which portal, the card is behind the runes.

On the one hand, I am one of the "The Last Wish is the raid" believers and this is probably, in the most technical and petty sense imaginable, a retcon.

On the other, they never explicitly confirmed it and we're getting an Ahamkara season, who gives a gently caress.

I don't really disagree with "the last wish is the raid" conclusion, but "there was a datamined 15th wish in the files" is sort of the perfect metanarrative bullshit hook for a game that teases and toys with entities being aware that there is something beyond the game, particularly considering Ahamkara have previous been tied in with those themes. That said, there was definitely something that felt a little cheesy about a cutscene that literally feature the player character finding "The Last Wish" in what almost felt like an oddly convenient way.

I kind of wonder if The Wish Wall will feature in some of the mechanics next season? I assume we'll probably get a different copy of it so they don't have to touch the spaghetti code of the raid, but now I'm wondering if we might get an exotic mission that borrows some Last Wish mechanics like Seraph Station borrowed from DSC.

I don't think "The Last Wish raid is the 15th Wish" has ever really held up. The 15 wishes are wishes made on the Wall of Wishes. We know there are 15 because of the lore book Wall of Wishes.

The Last Wish raid isn't a wish made on the Wall of Wishes via the symbolic language, it's the active wish of our Guardians in combat. It would be weird for it to be the 15th wish in the Wall of Wishes book.

The Last Wish is still the last wish made to Riven, it's just not the 15th Wish from the Wall of Wishes book. There's some deliberate mislead between the 15th wish vs The Last Wish, which fits perfectly with Savathun and a wish-granting creature (letter of the wish vs spirit stuff).

It's very funny that "the 15th wish", a random piece of cut content, only became important because the community became obsessed with finding it, and now it's been written back into the game as super important all along
