Access to the dungeon requires ownership of The Witch Queen Dungeon Key. Players can acquire the quest Ares Desperado from Ikora Rey in the Tower. The dungeon can then be found on the Savathûn's Throne World destination map, next to the landing zone for The Enclave. Players must complete the free introductory mission from The Witch Queen campaign, The Arrival, in order to access the Throne World map.[1]
