Sniksis plays a significant role in guarding the entrance toward [[Gale's Watch]] for [[Kridis]]. Sniksis will spawn in the chamber Eramis makes her speech and supported by reinforcements such as [[Shank]]s and [[Tracer Shank]]s.


Sniksis plays a significant role in guarding the entrance toward [[Gale's Watch]] for  [[Kridis]]. Sniksis will spawn in the chamber Eramis makes her speech and supported by reinforcements such as [[Shank]]s and [[Tracer Shank]]s.
Sniksis wields a [[Shrapnel Launcher]] and shielded by a [[Arc]] [[Absorption Shield]]. Due to its high durability, it requires a lot of firepower to defeat. Successfully killing Sniksis will break free the barrier into Gale's Watch.

Piksis plays a significant role in guarding the throne room entrance for [[Kridis]]. However unlike most Fallen who attack players aggressively on sight, Piksis will ceremoniously stay idle and will not engage the [[Guardians]]. It will only attack if it is provoked and will enlist the help of the nearby [[Wretch]]s to fend off players.

After defeating [[Yamiks Prime]], a barrier will open to reveal the pathway to Kridis. The Dark Priestess is found within the middle of arena idle in a stasis pose and approaching her will initiate the encounter as rises from her stance and enters battle. She will spawn a wave of [[Marauder]]s and [[Wretch]]es to tackle Guardians and caution must be taken as Kridis will occasionally freeze players with her Stasis blasts while her reinforcements attack mercilessly.
