In Destiny 2, Oryx, the Taken King, is a significant antagonist from Destiny: The Taken King (2015). While he doesnt appear directly in Destiny 2's main campaigns, his legacy persists through lore, weapons, and activities. Heres what you need to know: Oryx in Destiny 2: Lore & Story References - Oryxs influence is felt through the Taken, a faction he originally created. Savathûn and Xivu Arath (his sisters) continue his dark legacy. - The Books of Sorrow (lore tabs) detail his origins as Aurash, his transformation into Oryx, and his conquests. - The Dreadnaught (his ship) is mentioned, though it remains inaccessible in Destiny 2. Weapons & Gear - Touch of Malice (Exotic Scout Rifle) Originally Oryxs weapon, it returned in The Witch Queen (Season of Plunder, 2022). - Kings Fall Raid Weapons Reissued versions of guns like Doom of Chelchis and Defiance of Yasmin (from the reprised Kings Fall raid). Kings Fall Raid (Reprised, 2022) - A Destiny 2 version of the iconic Destiny 1 raid where you fight Oryx in the Ascendant Plane. - Mechanics are updated, but the core fight remains: - Basics: Destroy Light-Eater Ogres, detonate Corrupted Light bombs, and stagger Oryx in his final stand. - Final Stand: A DPS phase where you shoot his chest to finish him. Other Connections - Xivu Arath & Savathûn Oryxs sisters play major roles in Destiny 2 (e.g., The Witch Queen expansion). - The Taken Still a recurring enemy faction, though now controlled by the Witness. Is Oryx Alive? NoOryx was permanently killed in Destiny 1s Kings Fall raid. However, his essence may linger in the Darkness (e.g., Touch of Malices lore suggests his will persists). Should You Play Kings Fall? Absolutely! Its one of Destiny 2s best raids, with epic encounters and great loot. If you never fought Oryx in D1*, this is your chance.

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
