With the arrival of the Season of Haunted, Destiny 2 has introduced some additional resources you require to unlock certain weapons and armors. One of the rarest Season of Haunted resources is the opulent umbral energy.
Opulent Umbral Energy is extremely important in this season, as it is required to unlock/focus weapons and armors which cannot be obtained otherwise.
Once you unlock weapons by opening opulent chests in the Derelict Leviathan located on the Castellum on the Moon, you can focus the same using the Crown of Sorrow. As most of the Opulent Weapons are craftable, you may need to focus a single weapon at least 10 times or more unless you have the blessings of the RNG gods, to either get the perfect roll or get the deep sight resonance variant of it which you need 5 to craft the weapon using the relic
So in other words, you need tons of it, and in this guide, I will explain all the possible sources to look out for if you want to farm this rare resource.
How to Get More Opulent Umbral Energy in Destiny 2
Currently, there are three ways to get Opulent Umbral Energy, namely Nightmare Containment, Completing Sever, and Season Pass Ranks.
Nightmare Containment
Do not confuse Nightmare Containment with Nightmare ritual on the moon, It is the new public event introduced in the Season of Haunted, Once you complete Nightmare Containment tier III, you can bind 500 Vestige of Dread and get a bound essence, at the same time you will receive 5- 7 Opulent Umbral Energy, This is the most convenient way but will take a lot of time.
Completing Sever
Completing this replayable story mission weekly will grant 5 opulent energy
Season Pass Ranks
This final method is only viable to all the guardians who bought the season pass and will get opulent umbral energy in certain ranks.
- x1 Rank 2
- x4 Rank 52
- x6 Rank 70
- x10 Rank 92
You can earn 21 Opulent Umbral Energy by just leveling up your season pass but that’s easier said than done as it requires a lot of time.
These are all the ways with which you can farm Opulent Umbral Energy
