'''Praetorians''' are champions of the [[Vex]] that can be encountered during the [[Vault of Glass (raid)|Vault of Glass]]. They are deadlier and more aggressive variants of the [[Minotaur]], charged with protecting the legendary [[Vault of Glass (location)|Vault]]. | |||
During the [[Wolves' Gambit]] mission, Praetorians variants called [[Headless Praetorian]]s can be found attempting to fight off the Wolves that guard the Vault's entrance. | |||
==Gameplay== | |||
Praetorians have reinforced [[Void]] shields and always use the standard Minotaur weapon, the [[Torch Hammer]]. Their primary purpose appears to be to defend and reset [[Sync Plate]]s from non-Vex forces, as Sync Plates activate numerous pieces of Vex technology. Upon capturing the three Sync Plates to construct the [[Spire]] that unseals the Vault's main entrance, Praetorians will spawn relentlessly to stop the Spire's completion. More are encountered while facing the [[Gatekeeper]]s, and will again attempt to reset nearby Sync Plates. In the ''[[Destiny 2]]'' version of the encounter, Praetorians will spawn with Immune Shields that can only be destroyed with the [[Aegis]]. | |||
