Destiny 2‘s Season of the Wish takes you back to the Dreaming City, where you’ll work with Mara Sov as you attempt to convince Riven to join you and the rest of the Vanguard. As you play through these new activities, be on the lookout for Starcats.
The Starcats are unique collectibles you can find as you progress through the Season of the Wish story. They will appear in specific locations, with several rewards for finding each one. More become available the further we go into Season of the Wish. Here’s what you need to know about where to find each Starcat location in Destiny 2.
How to find all Starcat locations in Destiny 2
There are 14 Starcats for you to find and we have the first two Starcat locations. We’ll be adding additional locations as they are unlocked, which should happen after every weekly Tuesday reset during the Season of the Wish.
Each Starcat will be in the same location for every Destiny 2 player. You’ll want to make sure you keep a lookout for these crafty kittens as they’re likely going to be well hidden. Thankfully, they won’t be hidden all over Destiny 2. Instead, they’re going to be placed somewhere in activities that surround the Season of the Wish, so keep an out as you’re completing your weekly activities, or working on the major quests with Mara and Riven.
Should you find all 14 Starcats in Destiny 2, the Wyrmguard Shell will unlock and you can equip it to your Ghost.
1) Garden of Plenty Starcat location
There’s a Starcat hidden in the Garden of Plenty. The Garden of Plenty appears in the Riven’s Lair or The Coil activities. You will need to wait for the mission to appear for the Garden to show up, and it’s going to be called Polysemy. You also want to make sure the Garden of Plenty is appearing in the pathways for The Coil. If not, stick to Riven’s Lair. It could take a few times for you to get this one to appear during a run; I had to hop back into orbit several times before it did. Honestly, it might be better to go through The Coil several times.
When you arrive at the Garden of Plenty, the Starcat is going to be to the left of the back area. This will be close to the back area of the arena, to the left of the stairs before the portal. You can find the cat looking over the side.
2) The Blind Well Starcat location
You can find a Starcat in The Blind Well, an activity you can complete in the Dreaming City. Although I was playing on the tier three version of The Blind Well, I do not believe this is a requirement for the Starcat to appear. It should be in the same place.
You can find it in the back room, next to the large door, on the opposite side of where you spawn into this area. It should be scratching against the large doors.
3) Temple of the Queen’s Wrath location
You can find the Starcat in the Temple of the Queen’s Wrath by getting the Tautology mission in Riven’s Lair. If you don’t have Tautology as the mission, back out of it and try again. You won’t be able to find it otherwise.
Eventually, you’ll reach the Temple of the Queen’s Wrath during this mission, and before you go through the portal, when you enter the room, take a turn to the right. Continue right until you’re in the corner of the room, and you’ll find the Starcat hidden behind a pillar.
4) Chamber of Starlight location
You will need to make your way to the middle of the Dreaming City to locate the Chamber of Light lost sector. When you reach there, fight your way through the waves of minions, and defeat the boss protecting this area.
After defeating the boss and you’ve cleared the area, make your way to the pedestal where the boss was. You should find a table with the Starcat resting on it.
5) Bay of Drowned Wishes location
You won’t spend too much time trying to track down the Starcat inside the Bay of Drowned Wishes lost sector. When you land at the Dreaming City fast travel location, turn around and make your way into the Bay of Drowned Wishes.
You will need to work your way through the end of the lost sector, and the Starcat will be sitting next to the chest that appears after you defeat the boss.
6) Aphelion’s Rest location
The Aphelion’s Rest lost sector will be on the southeast section of the Dreaming City in Destiny 2, underneath Petra’s location. Similar to the previous ones, you’ll need to find your way through until you reach the boss room.
Once you’ve cleared the area, jump to the platform above where you can find this lost sector’s chest, and you can find the Starcat resting inside of the bowl.
7) Gnashing Chamber location
The Gnashing Chamber Starcat is relatively easy to find in Destiny 2 for Week 3. You can enter this area by entering Riven’s Lair or by going through The Coil. When you enter the Gnashing Chamber, make your way to the left of the room, and you should find the cat sitting next to the cat statue on the table.
8) Reaver’s Orison Starcat location
The next Starcat will be inside Reaver’s Orison, and you can find it in Destiny 2‘s Riven’s Lair activity. You will need to make sure you receive the Apophasis mission to get to Reaver’s Orison. When you arrive here, make your way to the right side of the arena, and the Starcat will be sitting next to a large tree.
9) Spine of Keres Starcat location
You can find the Spine of Keres’ Starcat by making your way to the Dreaming City. You will need to land on the Divalian Mists, and then make your way to the northwest. From here, proceed forward, and into the large tower at the beginning of the Spine of Keres. Proceed up the flight of stairs to the third floor, and you can find the Starcat to the right of the entrance.
10) Harbinger’s Seclude Starcat location
When you reach the Harbinger’s Seclude, make your way to the large arena at the center of this location, and then jump down. You have to make your way to the elevator that will take you down to where you can find the skulls, and the one on the left, closest to the door, will have the Starcat behind it.
11) Gardens of Esila Starcat location
The Gardens of Esila Starcat is in the Dreaming City, but you will need to make your way to the southern reach of this region, below The Strand. Here, you will need to make your way deep into this area, and seek out a small bridge, where you can walk underneath it. You will find a Starcat sitting below it.
12) The Confluence Starcat location
You can find The Confluence underneath the Harbinger’s Seclude. You will need to teleport through a Taken Portal to reach it. Make your way through this location, and then take a left when you reach a large room, where you should find a large, broken portal, covered in what appears to be vines. The Starcat will be sitting at the base of it.
