How to find and harvest the flesh of Akka in Destiny 2

At some point, you are tasked with harvesting the flesh of Akka in the Rites of the Deep seasonal quest during Destiny 2‘s Heresy Act II. This can be a bit confusing as the resource’s name doesn’t specifically match where you are getting it from.

If you are struggling with the Rites of the Deep quest, here is everything you need to know about finding and harvesting the flesh of Akka in Destiny 2.

Where to find the flesh of Akka

The flesh of Akka is part of several subquests in Heresy Act II that form the bigger Rites of the Deep quest. Eris Morn wants to bind the Echo of the Navigator, and to complete the ritual, you will need to harvest several pieces of this resource.

All you need to do is explore the regions of the Nether and shoot targets to harvest the five pieces required by the quest. Each region usually has two or three, so it shouldn’t take very long.

How to harvest the flesh of Akka in Destiny 2

You can find the flesh of Akka by destroying specific parts of the Dreadnaught, most commonly in the Hall of Souls after the arch and to the left. If you scan the area, they look like the Hive spikes protruding from the ceiling and the walls, and you must destroy them to open objectives in multiple places. Shoot them, and you will automatically harvest the flesh pieces. Getting close will make a target market appear, but we have found that the best way is to scan around.

Two of the necessary targets to shoot are almost next to each other, with a third being found below the other two. The other ones found in the Fonts might be a little more difficult to spot, but you can just focus on the ones that are easier to find. Then, go back into the Nether and harvest all the pieces you are still missing.

Once you have all the flesh pieces that you need, you don’t need to go back, as Eris Morn will summon you automatically to her throne world, completing the quest. You will take part in a short cutscene featuring Commander Sloane, and this will lead into the next part of Rites of Deep, which will be about preparing the ritual and engaging the Hive forces to keep them busy.
