Malok is encountered twice in the [[April Update]]. He is first met in the mission [[Pretender to the Throne]] on the [[Dreadnought]], where he plans to threaten the [[Guardian]] upon their arrival. To show his might, he sends forth a wave of Taken to fend off the Guardian. The Guardian succeeds, but Malok teleports to the [[Shrine of Oryx]] to secure his power. The Guardian confronts him again in the [[Blighted Chalice]] strike, and he has some deadly tricks up his sleeve. His mere presence covers the floor in a dark mist that disables recovery and agility, and throughout the fight, he will continue to summon [[Taken Blight]]s. These blights will bring forth waves of [[Taken]] minions that should be disposed of quickly. Destroying the blights will also clear up space for Guardians to gain a foothold on the battlefield. | |||

Like most Knights, Malok is armed with a [[Boomer]] that rapidly fires fast-traveling [[Arc]] Bolts that deal high explosive damage, so he can constantly siege and overtake your position even when you're hiding in cover, and if a Guardian gets too close, he will pound the ground with his fist to create a gigantic shockwave that will instantly kill them. He is capable of moving blindingly fast as well, making it tricky for the player to keep their reticle on target. However, after sustaining enough damage (approximately 75% of his health), Malok drops his Boomer, thus signifying a change in his tactics. | Like most Knights, Malok is armed with a [[Boomer]] that rapidly fires fast-traveling [[Arc]] Bolts that deal high explosive damage, so he can constantly siege and overtake your position even when you're hiding in cover, and if a Guardian gets too close, he will pound the ground with his fist to create a gigantic shockwave that will instantly kill them.
