How the Eliksni Quarter Community Event Works in Destiny 2
To start participating in the Eliksni Neighborhood Community Event, you need to visit the chest located in the tower as soon as you spawn there.
This gives you A Rising Tide, a quest where players are asked to donate treasure – with individual and community rewards for participating.
The steps to get started with A Rising Tide in Destiny 2 are:
- Visit the Tower and access the Donati on Chest
- Collect a Captain’s Coin, which can be found in Ketchcrash, Expeditions, Destination Chests, Lost Sectors, Public Events, Dares of Eternity, and King’s Fall
- Deposit your coins in the donation box
However, from there, other stages of the A Rising Tide quest will be controlled by community progress. How can you see how things are progressing?
How to track the progress of the Eliksni Neighborhood Community Event
Each time a new milestone for donations is reached, more of the Eliksni district will be upgraded and A Rising Tide will progress further. There are nine stages in total in the Guardians quest to complete.
You can see the progress by looking at the chest screen, where progress numbers are displayed in the bottom right, updating every 15 minutes.
As well as a total figure in the lowest heading, it also shows all available locked stages – and their various requirements.
Alternatively, there is a fan-made website – eliksni.charity – which gives you a log of steps, as well as ETAs.
How can you speed this up? By finding the event currency – Captain’s Coins.
For Season of Plunder we have the Sails of the Shipstealer quest, Treasure Coordinates and Map Fragments, Cryptic Quatrains, and weapons such as Quicksilver Storm and Taipan 4FR. Meanwhile, there’s the arrival of the King’s Fall and King’s Fall challenges, as well as weapons such as Doom of Chelchis and Touch of Malice. For The Witch Queen, find out how to get Exotics including Dead Messenger and Parasite.
How to Farm Captain’s Coins in Destiny 2
It will take hundreds of millions of Captain’s Coins to complete A Rising Tide. While you’re not responsible for collecting all of these items on your own, racking up coins efficiently can still save you time, especially if you’re after the individual rewards. There are many ways to farm captain coinsbut not all sources are equal.
Here’s roughly how many Captain’s Coins you can expect from activities, based on our testing and some information from the crowd:
- Destination chests (3)
- Heroic Public Events (14)
- Lost Sectors (14)
- Eternity Challenges (35)
- Strike (35-50, depending on difficulty)
- Ketchcrash and Expeditions (50)
- King’s Fall Raid (340 total, unevenly distributed between each checkpoint)
Our recommendation for farming captain’s coins is the Widow’s Walk Lost Sector in Trostland of the EDZ. The entire Lost Sector can be cleared in 30-60 seconds, granting you around 14 Captain’s Coins per minute.
All you have to do is dash in, kill the boss, open the chest, then run or quickly run back to Trostland and repeat. It’s extremely fast, and very efficient.
Alternatively – especially since the above method tends to get nerfed by Bungie during these types of events – we’ll find destination chests that are fairly easy to find. Pick a patrol area you like, stick the Ghost mod that lets you see them from a distance, and go exploring on a loop.
It’s not quite as fast, but it feels a little less insane – especially if you can snack on a few planting bonuses as you go.
Wearing parts of an entire emblem is also supposed to help earn coins, although it’s unclear how much this helps. Still, it’s worth putting it on just to be safe, if your goal is to farm Captain’s Coins.
All Eliksni Quarter personal event rewards in Destiny 2
While helping your neighbor man four-armed bipeds is its own reward, there are tangible incentives to participate in this community activity. Personal rewards are distributed in regular increments based on your individual contributions.
These rewards are:
- Parts of a whole emblem (1 Treasure offered)
- Improvement Core (300 treasures donated)
- Upgrade module (600 treasures donated)
- Eliksni District Gift Box (1000 treasures donated)
- Enhancement Prism (1400 treasures donated)
- Rising Shard (1800 Treasure given)
- Swashbuckler Shell (2400 treasures donated)
Naturally, this all adds up to the real prize, the joy on the faces of any Eliskni you help by donating treasure.
Of course, no one will blame you for wanting to use a few new toys while you’re at it, like a shiny new BxR-55 Battler, or a sweet new Exotic from today’s Legend and Master Lost Sector.
