-'''Arunak, Beloved by Calus''' is a [[Hive]] [[Ogre]] who serves as one of the weekly-rotating final bosses of [[The Menagerie]] activity. It is one of [[Calus]]' favorite specimens within his [[Menagerie]] aboard the [[Leviathan]], where he lets it lurk in the [[Undercroft]]. <ref>'''Bungie (2019/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Season of Opulence]]: [[The Menagerie]]''</ref>

 ==Gameplay==
-Arunak behaves like any [[Ogre]], laying into [[Guardian]]s with its [[Void]] Eye Blasts and slamming the ground if any get too close. Arunak can also release Ground Explosions, attacks similar to a [[Psion]]' Psionic Blast, which will track every player's last known location. Arguably, the most challenging aspect of the boss fight is the tight corridors and the lack of cover. Arunak will be coated in an immunity shield; to destroy it, players must locate [[Cursed Thrall]], named [[Arunak's Attendant]]s, which will drop explosive charges when killed. Much like [[Vosik, the Archpriest|Vosik]], the charges are to be thrown at Arunak, and will gradually degrade its shields. Once destroyed, players now have the opportunity to sneak some damage into the boss, potentially even chipping off a third of its health with enough firepower. Once at the last third of its health, Arunak will go berserk, moving slightly faster and becoming melee-focused. It will also spawn [[Treasured Knight]]s, which can one-shot a Guardian with their axe (players can avoid killing these Knights and unlock a triumph). The fight ends when Arunak is killed.
