Nessus

Lush with giant twisted trees, deep caverns, waterfalls, and silver swamps, the origin of this planetoid remains unknown.What is clear is that the Vex have nearly transformed the entire planetoid into a Machine World, above and below the surface. For those Guardians willing to brave the dangers and explore the myriad of mysteries, treasures beyond the imagination await.

Nessus is a Location in Destiny 2.

Introduction

Quite possibly one of the most interesting planets to be set for exploration in Destiny 2 is the planetoid Nessus; an area of the Destiny 2 universe that is completely under the control of the Vex, a race of beings that Destiny fans seems to adore. Throughout the entirety of the Nessus planet, it resembles that of a giant super-computer, where technology is the only thing that matters anymore to this planet. Spread throughout, you’ve got some luscious red trees, white Vex rivers, and deadly canyons that you aren’t going to want to fall into. The region is also populated by Fallen, and Cabal forces.

Nessus Map

Nessus consists of 4 landing zones: The Cistern on the Southwest, Artifact's Edge in the middle, Watcher's Grave on the North, and Exodus Black on the East. Notably, Watcher's Grave contains a Cabal spaceship Loyalist Barge. Here, you will find Werner 99-40, a Frame that lets you upgrade Chalice of Opulence by collecting Imperials. There's also Halphas Electus, an Imperial land tank that produces new weapons for the Cabal by extracting materials from the Nessus.

Other notable locations include The Tangle, Arcadian Valley and Hallows.

Arcadian Valley

Arcadian Valley is a region of the planet in which the Red War was fought. Due to the Red Legion and their attempts to drill into the Vex ruins that are scattered out throughout the region, there are drills all around the immediate area of Nessus. Similar to Earth, Nessus is another planet with plenty of adventures, locations, and Lost Sectors dotted around the planet’s surface. It is also home to the Leviathan, the flagship of emperor Calus, the former Cabal leader.
