In the ''Riven's Heart'' encounter, they behave like any other [[Cleaver]]-armed [[Taken Knight]]s; but in the ''Vault'', they are one of the most important aspects of the encounter. Once an [[Eye of Riven]] is killed and their essence picked up, a Might of Riven will spawn (or 2 or 3, depending on how many essences were loaded into the Security Mechanism during a phase). The Knight(s) must be killed before they reach the plates and slam their Sword down. If they do slam their Sword down, the team will have about 5 seconds before the Security Mechanism overloads and wipes the team.
Mights of Riven fuse the melee prowess of Cleaver-wielding [[Knight]]s with the Taken Burn their brethren are most famous for. In the Vault encounter, once an [[Eye of Riven]] is killed and their [[Taken Essence]] picked up, a Might of Riven (or 2 or 3, depending on how many essences were loaded into the Security Mechanism during a phase) will spawn in one of the three areas. The Might will rush towards the closest plate, and if it reaches it, will plant its sword inside, causing an overload that will kill all players. Killing the Mights is thus essential to the completion of the encounters.
 
Mights of Riven encountered elsewhere simply act as powerful enemies, and can be dealt with as one pleases.

The Might of Riven are a group of Taken Knights first seen in the Last Wish Raid. The Mights are Major Taken Knights uniquely armed with Cleavers, and they use their power to attempt to inhibit the Raid Fireteam's progress to Riven. They are seen in the Vault and Riven's Heart encounters. One of these Knights makes an appearance in the The Other Side Exotic Mission.

Gameplay

Mights of Riven fuse the melee prowess of Cleaver-wielding Knights with the Taken Burn their brethren are most famous for. In the Vault encounter, once an Eye of Riven is killed and their Taken Essence picked up, a Might of Riven (or 2 or 3, depending on how many essences were loaded into the Security Mechanism during a phase) will spawn in one of the three areas. The Might will rush towards the closest plate, and if it reaches it, will plant its sword inside, causing an overload that will kill all players. Killing the Mights is thus essential to the completion of the encounters.

Mights of Riven encountered elsewhere simply act as powerful enemies, and can be dealt with as one pleases.
