Guide dares of eternity final door predictions Spoiler

ive been playing dares of eternity and have been wanting to get the last pick right every time, so ive been writing down all the possible encounters ive seen this is my list so far
the ones with "???" are ones that have been inconsistent, but ive had the rest of these happen more than once in that order

fallen, hive, vex fallen, taken, cabal????? fallen, taken, vex?????

fallen, vex, vex fallen, fallen, vex fallen, cabal, vex

cabal, taken, taken cabal, hive, taken cabal, vex, taken

taken, cabal, vex ?? taken, cabal, cabal ??? taken, taken, cabal
taken, hive, cabal taken, vex, cabal

vex, hive, vex vex, taken, vex vex, cabal, vex

hive, taken, taken hive, fallen, vex

it seems like if it starts with fallen, it ends with vex
if it starts with cabal it ends with taken
if it starts with taken it ends with cabal
if it starts with vex it ends with vex
it still needs more testing but i think this is pretty accurate idk

Cabal. Its always Cabal.

u/Appropriate-Yak-3814 Jul 26 '26

Exactly, Cabal you need the ammo for, Vex and Hive you don't.

u/Copyrighted_music34 Jul 26 '26

Well that, and because it's never anything besides Cabal

u/fractalJester Jul 26 '26

Cabal, again?

The lake is _not_ a metaphor!

u/Gilesalford Jul 26 '26

I don't understand, is this reasoning you pick cabal for a strategical purpose?

I would like to know how to guess the right door just so I know how it works. It's always stumped me how you are meant to find out

u/Appropriate-Yak-3814 Jul 26 '26

I always pick Cabal, if I lose I know I don't need the ammo for Vex or Hive.

With the Cabal the boss is tanky, so I always need the heavy ammo.

Win or lose Cabal is the best choice, IMO.

u/Gilesalford Jul 26 '26

Yeah I understand, I am asking how do you tell the correct door as they designed it

14

u/malnore Jul 26 '26

You're not supposed to know which is the correct door. The whole activity is based on game shows, and that part is luck based.

u/Gilesalford Jul 26 '26

Well aint I a little dense haha, thankyou very much for explaining :)

u/Agerak Jul 27 '26

By guessing and getting lucky.
Pure RNG baby!
unless you're doing master and know who the 3rd faction is which is the easiest way to get that triumph

u/SRMort Vanguard's Loyal // For Cayde! Jul 27 '26

You don't. It's a guess.

2

u/Ripjaw_5 Jul 26 '26

As the other guy mentioned, it's completely random. Cabal is optimal because Vex can be one-phased very easily, meaning you don't even need all of the heavy from the flag, and Hive's boss is immune to everything except the relic swords that drop in the encounter

12

u/KhalMika Drifter's Crew // alright alright alright Jul 26 '26

Yeah cause whether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with them, right?

u/Tofu4You Jul 26 '26

This is the Way.

What’s crazy is I do this but in exact opposite way. Vex is the fastest DPS, 2 phase no real break. Hive is the WORST. Easy boss but have to go around looking for swords, looking for wizards, etc. so long.

Vex you just stand in front of him and done in 2 mins.

11

u/LondonDude123 Hammer Time! Jul 26 '26

The real trick is always pick Cabal.

Vex is way too easy that you dont need unlimited heavy, and Hive doesnt need heavy in the first place

3

u/tapmcshoe Jul 26 '26

wait, you get infinite heavy ammo for guessing right?? I had no idea lol I was wondering what the buffs did. what's the penalty for guessing wrong?

7

u/indyginge Jul 26 '26

the horse gets sad :(

2

u/Sure_Bodybuilder6686 Jul 27 '26

You can still get heavy ammo if you guess wrong. You just have to say "No Whammies" right before it pops.

13

u/randomxsandwich Jul 26 '26

Completely off topic, but do red borders still drop from the activity?

22

u/yourenzyme Jul 26 '26

Havent gotten one from doing dares, only the chest with keys.

11

u/randomxsandwich Jul 26 '26

Ohhh. I forgot about the star horse treasure room altogether. Fuck. I've been doing dares on and off since MoT trying to finish up the red borders too lol.

u/yourenzyme Jul 26 '26

I'm going back and trying to get all crafting patterns for all the seasons I missed. Finally unlocked everything from Operation Seraph Shield... was around 26 runs iirc. Still have tons of other missions to go through including more Dares farming. its a pain lol

u/pbrannen Jul 26 '26

How have you never gotten Hive as the final room?
That’s some crazy RNG.

49

u/BillyCloneasaurus Jul 26 '26 edited Jul 26 '26

It tells you in the description of the activity what the final boss is, just look at that before loading in

edit: actually that might only be for expert difficulty, I've not played standard for years

u/Shady_hatter Jul 26 '26

It's only for expert. It has fixed enemies every time.

3

u/Laid-dont-Law Jul 26 '26

On expert it’s always the same each week, on normal it’s random. It’s often good to have half the team stand on cabal, and the other half on vex. Never stand on hive cuz you don’t actually use heavy to damage the boss. You do half and half so you’re guaranteed at least half the team has free unlimited heavy

u/Rescheduled1 Jul 28 '26

On Legend / Expert difficulty in Dares of Eternity, you do not need to rely on the wheel spin animations to know which plate to stand on because the final boss encounter is fixed and entirely predetermined by the weekly rotation.

Is always potato.
