How to unlock the Wishing for the Best achievement

  • TekmoteTekmote
    22 Sep 2018 28 Sep 2018 24 Oct 2019
    Update 4/21/2019: This achievement can be obtained by just finishing the last encounter of the raid. You can get a checkpoint for the heart run (aka Queenswalk), and once completed, the achievement will pop for you.

    If you would like a quick completion and have a checkpoint at the heart, feel free to reach out to me at discord, Tekmote#9815

    ====================================================

    This raid has a total of 6 encounters. Please note that the encounters can be beaten at a lower light level than the suggestion listed below. However, being at the recommended light level should make the encounter a little easier to beat.

    4. The heart holder will eventually get teleported inside the heart and must kill adds and retrieve Taken Strength orbs
    5. The last Taken Strength orb should be collected when the time is at 2 or 3 seconds remaining to extend the time for the heart holder
    6. The heart holder will eventually get through the path

    The video below has my view of completing the entire Queenswalk encounter outside of the heart. Fast forward to 12:30 of the video to see the path you need to take in case you never get teleported inside the heart.


    Congratulations, you have beaten the "Last Wish" raid.

    camerons829For people that want to complete this raid, find a “Looking for Group” post and keep refreshing and looking until you find someone who is willing to teach or carry. Don’t join one that they require you to know exactly what to do, since it is your first time. This is the method I used and I found someone who was nice enough to explain everything to me, and he gave everyone a role. By the time that I joined, they were starting from the 2nd encounter, so you do not have to start from the beginning for the achievement. It took over 6 hours for us to complete, but it felt very accomplishing when the achievement popped! And on top of that, I got 1K Voices on my first completion!

    DeeecoJust a warning to people, this raid is now buggy as anything. Some things work, some things fail you that shouldn't, the whole thing has degraded into a broken mess. Get in, get out and good luck!

    SweptbackFlameSo I've just completed this and no unlock, and I have the triumph for completing the raid... I've done the standard switch profile to get achievements to unlock for this game and nothing...

    Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
    Posted by SweptbackFlame on 05 Apr 21 at 21:36
    Re4perKnightIf anyone is curious or searching as of right now you can get the achievement by using the wish well to get to Riven and fight there do the Queen's walk and pop for me and my team

    AnybodyButDavidLooking for a fireteam, I have never done a raid in Destiny 2, So I don't know anything about this one. I am light level 1295 hunter.

    mrbellekCan confirm just doing the Queen's Walk will pop this. I found a random LFG on the Xbox app for this, and after about an hour of trying we made it. :)
    If you want to actually open a raid chest at the end, you need to start from the Riven fight.

    Tetsuo8609Could someone let me get the checkpoint? Last achievement for the game
    Posted by Tetsuo8609 on 09 Sep 23 at 14:25
    Lukejordan16Can someone confirm that you can still get the achievement just by finishing the Queenswalk? Someone told me it doesn’t work anymore and you have to do it properly.

    LobstrShortsFor those looking for a checkpoint for Last Wish (and a potential fireteam as well), D2checkpoint, https://d2checkpoint.com/, is a great resource. It's not obvious how the site works but you can find articles walking through the process, like ScreenRant, https://screenrant.com/destiny-2-checkpoint-bot-how-to-uses/, and DOT eSports, https://dotesports.com/destiny/news/how-to-use-the-checkpoin....
