==Gameplay==
==Gameplay==
Kovik is an aggressive foe who constantly pushes on the player's position. He is armed with a [[Wretched Gaze]] machine cannon for heavy ranged combat. This weapon fires blindingly fast and can kill from very long ranges due to its high accuracy and damage, allowing Kovik to easily suppress [[Guardian]]s and melt their shields in an instant. Since it is powered by the Ogre's eye, it becomes even more lethal when Void Burn is an active modifier for the encounter. On top of this, he can teleport vast distances by disappearing for a brief moment and then reappearing a few seconds later, and if faced up close, he will unleash an Ultra Smash that will inflict massive damage and tremendous knockback or cause an outright death. However, despite his formidability, Kovik can momentarily be stunned by high-impact weaponry along with sustained fire, allowing the player an easier time finishing him off.

==Trivia==
*Kovik's upper right arm appears to be the only one of his four arms to be natural. The others are either mechanical, wired or SIVA parts.
*Kovik's pyramidal head design is similar to {{Plain|[http://silenthill.wikia.com/wiki/Pyramid_Head Pyramid Head]}}, a character of the survival horror ''{{Plain|[https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Silent_Hill_(video_game) Silent Hill]}}'' video game series.
**Along with that, Kovik is the only [[Fallen|Eliksni]] to not have any exposed head pieces in [[Destiny]] except for [[Vosik, the Archpriest|Vosik]].
**Based on the look of Kovik's weapon, it's concluded that it was once a [[Null Cannon]].

==Trivia==
*Kovik's upper right arm appears to be the only one of his four arms to be natural. The others are either mechanical, wired, or made of SIVA.
*Kovik's pyramidal helmet design is similar to {{Plain|[http://silenthill.wikia.com/wiki/Pyramid_Head Pyramid Head]}}, a character from the survival horror ''{{Plain|[https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Silent_Hill_(video_game) Silent Hill]}}'' video game series.
*Kovik, as well as [[Vosik, the Archpriest]], are the only [[Fallen|Eliksni]] in ''[[Destiny]]'' to not have any exposed head pieces.
*Judging from the appearance of Kovik's modified weapon, it is likely that it was once a [[Null Cannon]].
