Naksis's armor has an [[absorption shield]] that provides significant resistance to anything except [[Arc]]-damage weapons. He is armed with a Shrapnel Launcher and a teleportation ability that allows him to instantly shift several meters in any direction. However, Naksis is only a Level eight miniboss, meaning that he can be defeated in a matter of seconds with concentrated suppressive fire. Once the player gets past his shielding, Naksis will be vulnerable to headshots, allowing for an easier engagement.
Naksis is seen in the final wave of the ''Hack the Mesh Generator'', acting as the source of the Mesh's stability. Much like most [[Major]] [[Captain]]s, Naksis wields a [[Shrapnel Launcher]] for ranged combat, teleports to evade gunfire, and uses a [[Arc]] [[Absorption Shield]] for extra protection. Despite this, he is very easy to defeat if at a much powerful level, but he can summon [[Fallen]] for backup and is slightly resilient. After he is killed, the Mesh Layer will deactivate, allowing the team to move towards [[The Blast]].

Naksis, Devil Baron is a Baron from the Fallen House of Devils, who is encountered in the Strike, The Devils' Lair.[1] Leading the Devils in the Refinery to prevent the Fireteam of Guardians from breaching the security mesh layer barring the path to The Blast.

Gameplay[edit]

Naksis is seen in the final wave of the Hack the Mesh Generator, acting as the source of the Mesh's stability. Much like most Major Captains, Naksis wields a Shrapnel Launcher for ranged combat, teleports to evade gunfire, and uses a Arc Absorption Shield for extra protection. Despite this, he is very easy to defeat if at a much powerful level, but he can summon Fallen for backup and is slightly resilient. After he is killed, the Mesh Layer will deactivate, allowing the team to move towards The Blast.

He makes a non-canon reappearence in the Destiny 2 version of the The Devil's Lair Strike, donning House of Dusk armor, in the same role as before.

Trivia[edit]

  • While Naksis is seen leading the House of Devils' Fallen, he wears a blue cloak and has the emblem of the House of Winter. He is also listed in-game as belonging to the House of Winter via killcam.
    • Naksis was the first Fallen observed belonging to one House while working for another that the player has encountered.
  • Naksis is the first Baron to appear in Destiny.
  • There was a common bug where Naksis would spawn without his weapon being visible, yet still functional.
