-Nixis is more dangerous than his Fallen counterpart due to additional abilities. For ranged combat, he uses an [[Arc]] [[Shrapnel Launcher]] with great accuracy and stopping power over long distances. Guardian that gets too close will either get knocked back or killed by his Ultra Smash, in which Nixis performs a ground stomp that creates a large area-of-effect shockwave. If so willing to close the gap and use this attack, or wanting to make a withdrawal, he can rapidly teleport in unpredictable directions, throwing off the player's aim. This can make it very difficult for a Guardian to keep him pinned down in one spot.

This can make it very difficult for a Guardian to keep him pinned down in one spot.
 In addition, like [[Taken Captain]]s, Nixis can send out a Darkness Bolt that will blind and deafen Guardians that they hit, and he will summon [[Taken Blight]]s throughout the battle to get support from his minions. These blights will also disable agility and recovery for Guardians who step in them. However, like [[Aksor]], Nixis can be temporarily stunned by hard-hitting headshots from weapons like [[1000 Yard Stare]] and the [[Sleeper Simulant]], allowing the player the opportunity for a series of follow-up shots that can help whittle away at his health until he is killed.
