Destiny 2 players are no strangers to conquering tough content solo, but the latest accomplishment by Xemo is truly remarkable. Xemo recently completed the game’s newest raid, Root of Nightmares, flawlessly – without a single death. While it’s no secret that top Destiny 2 runners grind for hundreds of hours just to kill a single raid boss solo, Root of Nightmares is considered one of the easiest raids to date, with more than 100,000 players completing it on day one. Despite this, Xemo’s achievement is nothing shy of extraordinary, as it took around 200 hours of practice and perfect execution.
The strategy used by Xemo involved the Solar Warlock super Well of Radiance, which soaked up massive amounts of damage, and a sword with the Eager Edge trait for improved mobility. Xemo’s success earned well-deserved kudos from the gaming community, with one YouTuber even offering a $1,000 bounty for this task, though it’s unclear if this was meant in jest or not.
It’s worth noting that a recent update for Lightfall has buffed various types of rifles, including auto rifles, pulse rifles, and scout rifles.

While it’s impressive that Root of Nightmares is easier compared to previous raids, Xemo’s flawless run proves that with dedication and skill, players can still achieve amazing feats in Destiny 2.
