Panoptes is completely invulnerable to damage unless shorted out with an Arc charge, upon which it will expose its vulnerable "eye". Although it does not utilize "conventional" Vex weaponry, it is capable of summoning simulated protectors (including simulated [[Vex]], [[Hive]], [[Fallen]] and [[Cabal]]) for defense, and can delete unwanted entities such as Guardians from the Infinite Forest at will. | Panoptes is completely invulnerable to damage unless shorted out with an Arc charge, upon which it will expose its vulnerable "eye".

It is Panoptes that directs the Vex's efforts into turning reality into what they desire: a future where the Vex reign supreme, Light and Darkness no longer exist and other lifeforms are destroyed. As such, the exiled Guardian, [[Osiris]], has worked continuously to prevent this future but has only manage to slow its progress at best. However, Panoptes' plans enter a next phase after the Traveler's awakening and cornering Osiris, forcing the exile to spirit his Ghost Sagira to seek aid. That aid turned out to be [[The Guardian]] who begins to disrupt Panoptes' efforts. | |||
Ultimately, after Panoptes captures Sagira when she was able to locate its lair, the Guardian manages to confront the powerful Axis Mind but even though they are able to defeat legions of its simulated protectors, they are unable to harm Panoptes itself. Just when Panoptes was about to delete the Guardian, Osiris himself and many of his Reflections intervene, stopping the Axis Mind from completing the deletion and provides Arc Charges to disrupt Panoptes, forcing it to reveal its "eye", its only weak point. With Osiris' aid, the Guardian manages to damage and then destroy the Infinite Mind forever, freeing Sagira and preventing the dark future from ever occurring. | |||
With the Infinite Mind gone, the Vex have been left crippled and weakened but remain a threat that the Guardians and Osiris continue to fight but together, various efforts of the Vex to salvage themselves from Panoptes' defeat have been stopped. | |||
