"A floating light, a sleepless eye. Their hope, their faith, their sustenance."
Grimoire description.

The Servitor is a large, spherical flying robot used by the Fallen as support units in combat.[1] They are forged in the Traveler's image.[2]

Overview

Servitors' primary usage in combat is to support accompanying Fallen units by emitting a purple glow, giving them a nourishing boost.[3] They are shown to be a resilient threat and are capable of firing powerful blasts of Void energy from their eye, which is also a weak spot. They frequently try to protect this weak spot when in combat, making them difficult targets. To evade incoming attacks and flank their targets, Servitors will occasionally teleport short distances. In Destiny 2, Servitors serving under the new Fallen House of Dusk are given the ability to fully shield nearby Fallen units, granting them complete immunity to incoming damage. The Prime Ether Servitor in the Ether Resupply Public Event also has two new abilities, called Servitor's Grasp and Servitor's Fall. The Grasp teleports Guardians away from it, while the Fall sends them high up in the air. Ironically enough, they are also seen to be missing much of the black shielding near their eye and around their back, which may be attributed to the desperation found in the new House.

There are more powerful Servitors known as High Servitors. Above High Servitors are Prime Servitors, the highest form of Servitor known. Prime Servitors take the place of a religious leader among the Fallen, with each Fallen House having their own Prime Servitor. Certain Servitors function as pilots, and are called Pilot Servitors.[4]

Apart from supporting Fallen in battle, Servitors process matter and energy into Ether for the Fallen's sustenance, and anchor comms and provide technological acuity. They also serve as navigation aids for Fallen Ketches, and possibly Skiffs.[5]

Trivia

  • Along with Fallen Walkers, Shanks and Dregs, Servitors are among the only enemy types to not get a Taken version.
    • However, Chimera are Taken entities that appear to be former Fallen Servitors fused with living flesh.
  • In Destiny 2, new death animations were added to the Servitors including elemental deaths and Major Servitors now share the Ultra Servitor death animation, however, it is much faster and there is no death screech.
  • The Heavy Shank S.A.B.E.R.-2 is made from parts of Servitors.
