Destiny Ghost Hunter Helps You Locate The Game's Most Elusive Collectibles

by Mike Futter on Dec 30, 2014 at 09:49 AM

Destiny’s biggest shortcoming according to many of its players is the lack of story content. What is present is told through external sources via grimoire “cards” acquired through playing. Many of these are only unlocked by finding elusive collectibles spread throughout the game.

Along your travels, you may have encountered “dead ghosts” that you can revive. Each unlocks a different grimoire card carrying a piece of Destiny’s lore.

We’ve been searching for a good resource to find those we’re missing (in my case, quite a few). Previews editor Matt Miller landed on DestinyGhostHunter

No, this isn’t a cheesy show about the remains in the loot cave. It’s a personalized resource to locating those pesky ghosts that have eluded you.

Once you plug in your PSN or Xbox Live username, the site generates a color-coded list of all the ghosts in the game. Green means you’ve found it. Red is still hidden.

These are split up by planet, with the Tower and the expansion content each available in their own categories. If you’re looking to boost your grimoire score (and learn more about just what is supposed to be happening in Destiny), visit the site and start hunting.

 

Our Take
If you happen to be out on patrol doing daily bounties or going through familiar missions, this might offer a bit more to do. I’m curious if the narrative makes any more sense once you have all the pieces. I’m not holding out much hope, though.
