Where in Neomuna is Archie in Destiny 2?

By James On May 28, 2024

Archie returns to Lot 2 with a trip to the Neomuna after the weekly reset of May 28, 2024.

This is the last step in a series “Where in the system is Archie” missions in the wake of the Into the Light update – which have been distributed week after week leading up to The final shape.

Make a note of this quest ends on June 3 weekly reset – a full day before The final shape launches on June 4. This is because Bungie will take over Lot 2 Shut down 24 hours before the expansion.

Remember, provided you complete it each Archie quest before the arrival of The final shapeyou will get your hands on the Blue Steel shader, while the lore for all Archie missions will be available from June 4.

How to start ‘Where in Neomuna is Archie?’ in Fate 2

To start the final ‘Where’s Archie’ mission, go to the tower outbuilding and look for the paw prints.

You can reach this location by using the fastest travel point in the southwest and then continuing straight into the corridor. The paw prints will appear on the edge to your right.

Examine the prints and talk to Ada-1 (found in the attachment opposite) to start the latest quest.

Now go to Neomuna and speak to Nimbus at Strider’s Gate. Once done, the quest begins.

All Archie Neomuna locations

Here you will find Archie in Neomuna, clue by clue.

“Archie stopped by Nimbus’ post hoping to capture the location of an action figure

This clue points to Nimbus’ gym, which is also where you place all the action figure collectibles on Neomuna.

From Nimbus, jump directly down and to the right, off the platform. The building is right in front of you. Go inside and you’ll find Archie’s footprints between the coffee tables.

Now you have quite a journey ahead of you to visit the Veil.

“Archie wanted to stay up to date on everything we know about the Veil location

This designation refers to the Veil Containment and Irkalla Complex areas, the two southeasternmost points on the Neomuna map.

To reach this place, you can’t just start Veil Containment because you have to be outside. Instead, you will need to go through the Zephyr Concourse and then through the ESI Terminal. Keep left all the way there and you will eventually find a portal that will take you to the Veil Containment area.

Continue to the door, where you’ll be attacked by a bunch of Cabal and a Tormentor. Kill everything, including the Tormentor, and return to the door. You’ll find Archie’s footprints just outside the Veil door.

Now you have to take a long walk near Liming Harbour.

“Archie wanted to check out the views from where the Guardians controlled Strand’s location

This clue refers to Maya’s Rest, the sandy area east of Liming Harbor.

Land in Liming Harbor and take the path east through the rocks. This is actually a direct entrance to Maya’s Retreat, but it takes a while to get there. Continue until you reach the sand area.

You’ll have to kill a lot of Cabal here, including a Colossus boss. Once you kill the boss, all other enemies will disappear and you can collect the footprints overlooking the city.

Luckily, Archie’s final stop is a much shorter run.

“Archie’s last stop. Archie wanted to try to win a prize for your location

This last clue refers to the Thrilladrome Lost Sector in Liming Harbor.

Land in Liming and make your way north to the Lost Sector entrance. Walk in and just do the normal version – for example, don’t start the Legend or Master version if they are available – and eventually you’ll see Archie waiting by a claw machine. Don’t go through the Vex portal at the end. If you do, you’ll miss Archie, who is standing to the right of the portal.

Give him some pets and you’ll complete the exploration portion of the quest. Now it’s time to go back to Ada-1 in the Tower. She’ll give you an Archie plushie and 10 Trophy of Bravery tokens – useful for getting more Brave weapons. Whether you keep the hug is up to you. Archie will be sad if you don’t!

The Archie quests are disappearing completely with the June 3 weekly reset, so this is your last chance to find Archie.

If you’re looking for more to do in the Into the Light update, you can take on Pantheon bosses, complete ‘Zero Hour’ and search for Oracle locations for ‘The Whisper’ and upgrade Whisper of the Worm with Taken Blights .
