Wayfinder has a lot of weapons that you can use that you can switch around and see if it matches your playstyle. Some weapons are easy to get, some are harder. Legendary weapons are obviously hard to get, but what if I tell you there is one that’s easy to acquire?

The Radiant Dawn is one such weapon that you can get. It is currently the most accessible Legendary weapon for tanks that are looking to deal damage and also have high defense. In this guide, I will show you how you can farm the Radiant Dawn in Wayfinder.

Radiant Dawn Farming Guide

To get the Radiant Dawn, you will need to farm a lot of resources then craft it. There are over 9 resources that you need to collect in order to get it. Here are the resources you need to collect:

  • 15900 Gold
  • 1x Radiant Dawn Essence
  • 6x Archon’s Prisma
  • 3x Remnant Nexus
  • 3x Halcyon Orb
  • 6x Gem of Avarice
  • 87x Argent Spectra
  • 9x Glimmering Shadow-Warped Spectra
  • 18x Glimmering Verdant Spectra

Radiant Dawn Essence Farming

To farm Radiant Dawn Essence, you will need to complete the Remnant Altar expedition. It doesn’t matter what Sphere you select here so you don’t have to worry about that. But it is said that the higher the sphere, the higher the chances of dropping.

If you do Sphere 1, you will find that the Radiant Dawn Essence has a low chance of dropping, so you will find yourself having to run Remnant Altar over and over again until you get it.

If you are able, try to do Sphere 2 or 3 for a higher chance. You only need to get one Radiant Dawn Essence, so when you get one, you can move on to the next item.

Remnant Nexus Farming

The next resource to farm is the Remnant Nexus, which can be farmed when you run Scholar’s Corridor.

Same with the Radiant Dawn Essence, you can get it as long as you complete it, but you will have a higher chance of getting the resource if you do it on Sphere 2 or 3. You will need to continue running this until you get 3 Remnant Nexus.

Halcyon Orb Farming

The next item to farm is the Halcyon Orb, which is said to be much more demanding than the other items on the list. To farm it, you will need to go to the Codex Halls (on any Sphere) and complete the Orbital Event.

The easiest way to trigger the event is by doing a solo run and then go through the Codex Halls like normal. If the event doesn’t trigger, then you can easily just abandon the run and try again.

You will know that the Orbital Event is working when you see 4 Signal Fires on the map. When you do, look for two Signal Fires that are diagonal from each other. This is your best chance in getting the Halcyon Orbs.

When you reach the area, you should find floating golden orbs in the area. When you do, jump to the bottom of the area.

At the bottom of the area, there is an orb in the floor. Interact with it and go back up to where the orbs were.

Once back up, you will then need to align the orbs by stepping on the plates that are on the floor. The quantity of the orbs can range from 3 to 5, so you will need to align all of them to the floating circle outlines.

Take note that you don’t need to do this accurately, you just need to have the orbs in the circles. Once you align the orbs, you can collect your Halcyon Orb.

Jump down to where the orb in the hole was and you can see the treasure chest behind it that contains the Halcyon Orb. Open it and you will get one. You will need to do this 2 more times to get the amount you need.

Gem of Avarice Farming

Gem of Avarice is another item that will require you to put in some effort. Not because it’s hard to get, but because you will need to have really good luck. To get 6 Gem of Avarice’s, you will need to farm them from Loot Goblins, which only appears during Expeditions.

Even then, they are not guaranteed to drop a Gem of Avarice. That means you will need to do Expeditions until you finally encounter a Loot Goblin, and hope that maybe it will drop one.

Argent Spectra Farming

Farming Argent Spectra is actually the easiest to do when trying to get the Radiant Dawn. While you will need to get 87 of Argent Spectra, it is an incredibly common resource to get when you run the Undercroft. You can get the amount you need and more just by running the Undercroft 2 or 3 times.

Glimmering Shadow-Warped Spectra Farming

Another item that you can farm in the Undercroft, but with specific conditions, is the Glimmering Shadow-Warped Spectra. Farming 9 of these is easy, as all you need to do is to run the Undercroft (or any Aurelian Expedition for that matter) with the Gloomtouched Mutator active.

You will also need to make sure that the Recommended Power for the run is between 750 and 1600. Sphere 2 and 3 are great difficulties for these. When all that is met, simply kill enemies in the run to farm the item.

Glimmering Verdant Spectra Farming

The Glimmering Verdant Spectra is another item that is easy to farm and won’t take too much of your time. Simply go to the Highlands region and kill enemies until you get 18 Glimmering Verdant Spectra’s.

Crafting the Weapons

After getting all of the requirements, all you have to do is just go to Market Row in Skylight, speak to Arsenal and you will be able to craft this Legendary weapon to use.
