Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate introduces a unique new gameplay mechanic called Matterspark.
Matterspark is a funny word for turning yourself into an electrical ball of dark matter, and it's a crucial part of The Edge of Fate and its new destination, Kepler. Matterspark consoles are found all over the map, and interacting with them will shrink you down into the electro ball of doom, allowing you to get to hard-to-reach places and even fight certain enemies.
One of The Edge of Fate's missions, Fallow, has a boss fight that requires Matterspark to defeat it. Here's how to take down the Vex shields of the Devastator Mind in the Fallow campaign mission.
How to remove Vex shields in Devastator Mind fight in Destiny 2 Edge of Fate
Mission: Fallow is a part of The Central Academy Strangelet quest in The Edge of Fate, and it culminates in a boss fight against a Vex. As the bots are known to do, it uses a shield to defend itself at different segments of its health bar, and it's using shield generators to do so.
You need to take down those shields before it takes you down, and doing so requires using the new Matterspark ability. Turn yourself into an electric ball and then make your way to this hole in the ground, marked by some weird green and yellow growths.
When facing the way you came in to the arena, this hole into a grate that can get you past the Vex barriers where the boss's shield generators are is on the right side of the area. Use Matterspark to go underneath the barrier as seen in the picture above, come up on the other side, and shoot the shield generator.
This will bring the boss's shield down. Eventually, once you reach the final segment of the boss's health bar, its shields will come up again and you will need to repeat the process. This time, instead of going straight, make a left and go all the way to the other side of the area to find the other shield generator.
Destroy that shield generator, and the boss is now free for you to take down for good, finish the mission, and continue on your way through The Edge of Fate's campaign story missions.
