My Wild Ride to Get Wish-Ender: A Hunter's Remembrance Quest Guide for 2026
Unlock the legendary Wish-Ender bow with our thrilling Hunter's Remembrance quest guide. Conquer The Shattered Throne in style!
So, there I was, chilling in the Dreaming City, minding my own business, when Petra Venj gives me that look. You know the one—the 'I've got a job for you, Guardian' look that usually means I'm about to spend the next few hours dying repeatedly in some spooky, convoluted dungeon. She hands me this weird, glowing Awoken Memento and tells me it's time for 'Hunter's Remembrance.' Translation: time to go get my hands on the legendary Wish-Ender bow. Now, I'm no new light—I've been around since the Red War—but let me tell you, this quest had me feeling all sorts of ways. Buckle up, buttercup, because I'm about to walk you through the whole shebang, 2026 style.
First things first, the prerequisites. You gotta own the Forsaken pack. No ifs, ands, or buts. If you don't, Petra will just give you the side-eye and send you packing. Once you're all set, chat her up at the Vestian Outpost. She'll drop the quest on you and hand over that Kinetic-slot Memento. Pro-tip: Make sure you have inventory space! If you don't, this precious quest item gets yeeted to your vault, and nobody wants to make an extra trip to the Tower mid-quest. That's a total mood killer.

Alright, with the Memento in my pocket (literally), it was time for the main event: diving into The Shattered Throne dungeon. Let me be real with you—this place is no walk in the park. It's dark, it's confusing, and it's full of Taken who really don't appreciate visitors. My mission? Hunt down three specific mini-bosses to 'purify' three Awoken Mementos. Sounds simple, right? Oh, honey, no. Finding these guys was like trying to find a specific grain of sand on the Tangled Shore. I must have gotten lost a dozen times before I remembered that fantastic video guide by TriGs on YouTube. Seriously, that creator is a lifesaver. Without a guide, you'll be wandering around like a headless chicken. Trust me on this one.
Here’s the lowdown on the three baddies you need to hunt:
| Memento Boss | Location in Shattered Throne | My Personal Experience |
|---|---|---|
| First Boss | Early section, near some descending platforms. | Almost fell to my death. Twice. Not my finest hour. |
| Captain Erivis, The Waking | In the big, open area with the winding bridges. | This guy hits hard! Bring a good close-range weapon. |
| The Final Boss (before Vorgeth) | Deep in the dungeon, past some sneaky hidden paths. | The atmosphere here is chef's kiss spooky. |
The purification process itself is a piece of cake. You find a creepy statue related to the Memento, interact with it, and boom—the associated mini-boss spawns. You just have to put them down. Defeat the boss, and the Memento is purified. Easy peasy. The fights aren't super hard if you're at a decent Power level, but going in blind is a recipe for disaster. Be prepared, know your enemy, and for the love of the Traveler, bring some friends. This is not a solo activity for your first run. I tried. It did not go well. My ghost was getting a serious workout.
After you've purified all three Mementos and taken down the big, ugly Ogre named Vorgeth (what a pain that guy is!), you get access to the final room. And let me tell you, it's worth the struggle. You'll see a massive statue of Sjur Eido. Just walk up and interact with it. Press the button, collect your loot, and congratulations! You've just added the Wish-Ender Exotic Bow to your collection. The feeling is absolutely unreal. This bow is a beast. It sits in your Kinetic slot, punches straight through enemy barriers like they're made of paper, and can nail multiple targets with one shot. Its exotic perks, Queen's Wrath and Broadhead, make it a monster in high-level content.

But wait! Don't start celebrating just yet. The quest isn't technically over. You have to haul your triumphant butt all the way back to Petra Venj to turn it in. I know, I know, it's a formality, but you gotta do it. She'll give you a final nod of approval, and then the Wish-Ender is truly, officially yours.
So, why go through all this trouble in 2026? Because Wish-Ender is still, hands down, one of the best weapons for endgame content. Champions in Grandmaster Nightfalls? Wish-Ender makes them look like minor inconveniences. It's a staple in my arsenal, and getting it was a rite of passage. The quest is a fantastic blend of exploration, challenge, and classic Destiny lore.
Final Tips from a Grizzled Veteran:
-
😎 Bring a Fireteam. Seriously. Do it.
-
🗺️ Use a Guide. The dungeon is a maze. Save yourself the headache.
-
🏹 Equip the Memento. Don't forget to have it in your inventory before the final statue!
-
💪 Be Patient. You will die. You will get lost. It's part of the fun. Embrace the chaos!
Getting the Wish-Ender was a journey I won't forget. It was frustrating, exhilarating, and ultimately incredibly rewarding. So, if you're sitting on this quest, stop procrastinating! Get out there, brave the Shattered Throne, and earn yourself a weapon that'll be by your side for seasons to come. You got this, Guardian!
