Many Destiny 2 players cannot move forward in the Barrow-Dyad Exotic Catalyst quest because of the “Rites of the Deep Tithe Found Lacking” error.
It looks like the problem is related to certain quest steps, but no one knows for sure what needs to be done.
Some players have tried different ways to fix it, and a few have been successful, but many still have the same issue.
Access The Portal To Fix Rites Of The Deep Tithe Found Lacking Issue
To get through the portal, players might need to complete a few specific steps in three different areas.

The main task seems to be finding and defeating hidden enemies to collect three “Coalescence of Sorrow” items. Here’s where these items are located:
Taken Over Area (Oryx’s Door)
Some players have found one Coalescence by defeating Taken enemies near Oryx’s door. If you haven’t gotten one yet, try checking this spot and eliminating any enemies that appear.
Ravenous Secret Chest (Hall of Souls)
Another Coalescence can be found inside a hidden chest located in the Hall of Souls. Players have reported that opening this chest has given them the item needed to progress.
Vorok In The Mausoleum
The third Coalescence might come from a boss named Vorok in the Mausoleum.
Some players believe they got the item from defeating Vorok, but this hasn’t been confirmed by everyone.
If you’re missing one Coalescence, it might be worth trying this area.

After collecting all three Coalescence of Sorrow items, some players have been able to open the portal.
However, others still see the “found lacking” message, leading to confusion about whether there are extra steps or if the game has a bug causing the issue.
Other Possible Fixes
Some players suggest completing the weekly story quest before trying to open the portal.
Others believe you need enough of the “Herald of the Deep” boon from Nether activities to unlock the “Faded Scroll” at the Shaping Slab in Mysterium.
However, many players who have done this still can’t access the portal.
Another method involves lighting three torches near the waterfall platform, which spawns an ogre that drops another “Coalescence of Sorrow.” Some have tried this but still can’t progress.
