During the [[Great Ahamkara Hunt]], Joxer was dispatched by the [[Vanguard]] to retrieve weapons being offered by the [[Reef]] to combat the reality-altering [[Ahamkara]]. As he waited for the Reef representative to arrive, Joxer repeatedly checked the safety on his rifle. The ninth time he did so, [[Illyn]] appeared with a floating container and reassured him he would not need his weapon. Joxer did not lower his auto rifle and the [[Techeun]] mocked him and the [[Guardian]]s for being so afraid despite the power of their [[Light]] and their desperate turn to Queen [[Mara Sov]] for aid. He retorted that the Ahamkara were destroying entire regions of [[Venus]] and declared it was a problem he was unable to just punch and demanded the weapons. Illyn opened the container to show him the weapons within and stated they must all be returned once the hunt was done. Joxer questioned why, and Illyn stated those were the conditions [[Riven|she]] had set with her bargain. Joxer tried to get more information from Illyn about the deal, but the Techeun remained quiet so Joxer hefted the container onto his back and departed.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Armor_of_the_Great_Hunt_(Titan)#Plate_of_the_Great_Hunt|Plate of the Great Hunt]]''</ref> | During the [[Great Ahamkara Hunt]], Joxer was dispatched by the [[Vanguard]] to retrieve weapons being offered by the [[Reef]] to combat the reality-altering [[Ahamkara]].

Decades later, Joxer and his fellow | Decades later, Joxer and his fellow Titan [[Redrix-3]] were guarding a train with a [[Crucible]] weapons shipment that included [[Tex Mechanica]] weaponry. After two [[Redjacks]] were eliminated by an intruder, the two Titans found and confronted [[The Drifter (character)|The Drifter]], whom Joxer had gotten to know through his participation in [[Gambit]]. Joxer questioned what the mysterious Lightbearer was doing there, and the Drifter explained he needed weapons parts to craft the rewards he handed out in Gambit matches before asking for them to let him take what he needed. Joxer responded that Commander [[Zavala]] would not approve, but the Drifter scornfully asked if the Vanguard actually had power over the two Titans before offering to double the value of their [[Mote of Dark|Motes of Darkness]] in their next Gambit matches. The two Titans looked at each other and accepted the Drifter's offer.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Ancient_Apocalypse_Armor_(Titan)#Ancient_Apocalypse_Gauntlets|Ancient Apocalypse Gauntlets]]''</ref> As the Drifter plundered the Tex Mechanica crates, Joxer and Redrix repaired the Redjacks to cover his tracks. As the Drifter was departing, they stared wearily at the armament he was carrying. The Drifter stopped and began reassuring them he had a reason for everything he was doing and asked how many [[Mote of Light|Motes of Light]] they had collected over the years, causing Joxer to remark that he missed his [[Vex Mythoclast]]. This caused the Drifter to point out how the Light had failed them all in the [[Red War]], but that utilizing Motes of Darkness could change everything before promising that if they stuck with him, he could show them what the [[Darkness]] could really do.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Ancient_Apocalypse_Armor_(Titan)#Ancient_Apocalypse_Mark|Ancient Apocalypse Mark]]''</ref> | ||

Barely surviving the event himself, Joxer returned to the ''Derelict'' to meet with the Drifter. Horrified at the permanent death of three fellow Guardians, Joxer stated that he thought this was just a test run, causing the Drifter to note that this was not the Crucible and that Gambit was for keeps. Angered by the rogue Lightbearer's amusement at the death of his fellow Guardians, Joxer protested that the Drifter could have saved the other three Guardians and stopped the Taken, but the Drifter simply asked how the armor had worked. After a brief moment, Joxer informed the Drifter that everything had worked as he had said it would, with the armor draining the motes from the other team's bank easily. He recounted the success the rest of his team had until the Primeval arrived, and repeated his horror about the rest of the team perishing at its hands. The Drifter told him that he could have all their cuts plus a little extra to keep quiet about the incident to the Vanguard and kicked a case with the payment over to him. Joxer took the case without even checking the contents and when the Drifter mentioned that he might have more work for him, the Titan informed the Drifter he was on his own and began walking to the hanger to depart. As he left, the Drifter called out after Joxer that he could keep the armor as well.<ref name="TR"/> | Barely surviving the event himself, Joxer returned to the ''Derelict'' to meet with the Drifter.
