Tethys, the Defended is an Ultra Taken Captain that can be encountered in the Dreaming City with the release of the Monument of Triumph update.[1]

Gameplay[edit]

Tethys, the Defended lurks in the Rheasilvia region, in a cave below the bridge that leads in from the Divalian Mists. When encountered, they will be protected by an Immunity Shield. To undo this shield, a player must damage Tethys using the Exotic Weapon Telesto. Once Tethys's shield is stripped, they will summon two Elite Taken Acolytes bearing the same name. More Acolytes will be summoned every third of their health. Once all the Tethys are slain, the player will earn the Are you sure about this Triumph.

Trivia[edit]

  • The Tethys Acolytes are the first named Taken Acolytes.
  • If a Distortion is active in the area, Tethys will gain Eclipse empowerment. This empowerment can be stripped with regular damage even if Tethys's Immunity Shield is still active.
  • Tethys shares their name with the moon of Saturn, similar to a Ghost shell released in a bundle with other Telesto-themed cosmetics.
