Sepiks Prime | ===Early history=== | ||
{{quote|Sepiks Prime cast a great shadow over our City. With its destruction, the Fallen Devils will grow weaker.|[[Commander Zavala]]}} | |||
Following the death of [[Solkis, Kell of Devils]], the [[House of Devils]] established a stronghold within the Cosmodrome of Russia. Absent of their Kell and political leader, the Devils' Prime Servitor, Sepiks, gained prominence within the House and ruled the Devils alongside [[Riksis, Devil Archon]]; who served it as a caretaker and arbiter of its will.<ref name="Riksis">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen Leadership#Riksis, Devil Archon|Riksis, Devil Archon]]''</ref> The lack of political leadership also allowed [[Craask, Kell of Kings]] to exert his influence among the techno-worshiping leadership of the Devils and rule them from the shadows.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Paskin.2C_King_Baron|Paskin, King Baron]]''</ref> | |||
At some point, Sepiks's authority was challenged when a group of revered scientists, the [[Devil Splicers]], splintered away from their House as they sought freedom from subsistence on [[Ether]] and evolution by augmenting themselves with technology.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen#Devil_Splicers|Devil Splicers]]''</ref> Among them was the former disgraced [[Archon Priest]], [[Aksis]] who led the Splicers.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Aksis,_Archon_Prime|Aksis, Archon Prime]]''</ref> | |||
The majority of the Devils took residence near an old colony ship, named the [[Devil's Spire]], and established [[The Devils' Lair]] as a mecca for the zealous worshippers to offer tribute to their machine god in the form of skulls from dead [[Guardian]]s.<ref name="Riksis"/><ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/ghost-scan-devils-bones Ceremonial Ritual]''</ref> Like many other [[Servitor]]s, Sepiks Prime was born in the image of the [[Traveler]] and the Devils went to great lengths to protect their main source of life sustaining [[Ether]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen Leadership#Sepiks Prime|Sepiks Prime]]''</ref><ref>'''Gameinformer (2018/7/5)''', [https://www.gameinformer.com/2018/07/05/these-are-the-eight-barons-who-helped-kill-cayde-6-in-destiny-2-forsaken The Eight Barons who killed Cayde-6]</ref> The Prime Servitor also spawned its own line of Sepiks High Servitors, most notably [[Sepiks-23]]. | |||
===Attack on Devils=== | |||
[[File:Destiny-E3-2014-5-SepiksPrime.jpg|thumb|300px|Sepiks Prime]] | |||
{{quote|Beneath the ruins of the Cosmodrome... we've located the House of Devils' Lair and the High Servitor feeding them their strength. We must destroy this machine god and send their souls screaming back to hell.|Commander Zavala}} | |||
For years the whereabouts of Sepiks remained elusive, but rumors hinted its presence within the [[Cosmodrome]]. The Devils dominance was uncontested for centuries until a newly risen [[Guardian]] slew their [[Archon]], Riksis. This was celebrated as the first major victory against the Devils since [[Battle of Twilight Gap]] and Sepiks would become vulnerable, causing the Devils to heightened their security for Sepiks.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Restoration]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire:Activities/Story: Earth, Old Russia#Restoration|Grimoire Restoration]]''</ref> Rallying their Fallen nobility such as [[Naksis, Devil Baron]] and deployed a [[Devil Walker]] to deter anyone from attacking Sepiks. | |||
The Vanguard Commander [[Zavala]] located the Servitor's position beneath a [[colony ship]] and coordinated a [[Strike]] against Sepiks.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[The Devils' Lair (strike)#Transcript|Devil's Lair Strike]]''</ref> Upon arrival, the Guardians entered a crossfire between the [[Hive]] and crews of Devils protecting the entrance to their lair, they then disable the Devils' security mesh layers and disposed their [[Baron]] and [[Walker]] to reach the Devils' Lair. | |||
As they entered into the lair, the team would discover Sepiks being protected by a personal immunity shield along with its worshippers within its domain, after taking out the Fallen within the site, the Prime would deactivate its shield to personally attack the Fireteam, resulting a battle between the Guardians and Sepiks. During the fight, Sepiks would continuously blasts them with its Servitor Eye and summoned more reinforcements to help it fend off the Guardians, as well as teleports around the lair to evade gunfire. But despite its tactical abilities, Sepiks would be destroyed by the Guardians, which would cripple the Devils' leadership and ends the biggest threat to the [[Last City]]. | |||
In the aftermath, the Devils attempted to replace Riksis with a Rising Archon named [[Karrhis, Archon Rising|Karrhis]] in hopes of reviving Sepiks, but was also slain. Later, the Guardian sought to acquire a stealth drive hidden in the Devil's Spire and stumble upon the destroyed haul of Sepiks in the Devils' lair.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/ghost-scan-sepiks-prime Sepiks Ghost Scan]''</ref> | |||
== | ===Return of Sepiks=== | ||
[[File:Sepiks1.gif|thumb|300px|Sepiks Perfected retreats]] | |||
{{quote|Why would the Splicers rebuild Sepiks? They already have SIVA." <br> "I can make a guess. Maybe an offer to the other Devils. You know — "In SIVA we trust" and "In SIVA, all things are possible."|[[Ghost]] and [[Shiro-4]].}} | |||
Following the demise of the Devils' leadership, the outcast [[Devil Splicers]] would returned to reorganise their House and shifted massive resources to the [[Plaguelands]] after they discovered the [[Golden Age]] technology of [[SIVA]].<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://youtu.be/mcywb8QTl5I Rise of Iron Opening]''</ref> A disgraced Archon Priest by the name of [[Aksis, Archon Prime|Aksis]], ordered his group of bio-engineers to rebuild their old Prime and augment it with SIVA. The Splicers' leadership sought to use Sepiks's revival as a power play to recruit other Devils to join their movement by bringing SIVA offerings and gain complete influence over the House by controlling the flow of [[Ether]]. Sepiks was reborn and christened '''Sepiks Perfected'''.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Sepiks Perfected|Sepiks Perfected]]''</ref> | |||

</ | |||
Later, a group of Devils captured [[Felwinter Peak]] to learn more about SIVA, causing [[Lord Saladin]] to send the Guardians to investigate the observatory and secure the [[Iron Temple]] back in the Iron Lord's hands, and keep its contained secrets about SIVA away from the Fallen. To the great shock of [[The Ghost]], they encounter Sepiks who tried to establish a foothold on the mountain, emitting a strange energy signature and began regenerating its health, Lord Saladin quickly ordered them to kill Sepiks as he believed the Iron Temple doors weren't strong enough to hold the Prime back.<ref name="Mountain">'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/king-of-the-mountain King of the Mountain]''</ref> | |||
Sepiks is later found assaulting the Temple's entrance with SIVA enhanced blasts and protected by a SIVA immunity shield. After spotting the Guardians, it drops its shielding and teleports to engage them and summons the rest of the normal Devil reinforcements to defend it. The Guardians used the high ground against Sepiks and destroy the [[Servitor]], however, due to its regenerative abilities, Sepiks would restore itself and retreats back to the [[Cosmodrome]]. [[Shiro-4]] then detects multiple impacts to the Sector 17 section of the Cosmodrome wall and Saladin orders the Guardians to stop Sepiks from escaping as the Devils now know the location of SIVA.<ref name="Mountain"/> | |||
With the Fallen [[Kell]]s gone, reorganising a military force was deemed almost impossible until the reemergence of Sepiks. Shiro wonders if they could use the sensor grid to see how far their operations stretched, but Saladin replies that the [[Fallen]] are irrelevant and finding Sepiks was the main priority to understanding the SIVA corruption.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/the-walls-come-down The Walls Come Down]''</ref> | |||
A [[The Devils' Lair (strike)|Strike]] is coordinated by Shiro to the breach past their defences and destroy the resurrected Prime Servitor holed up in the Devils Lair. The Splicers employ a laser grid with added encryption and deploy [[Dresiks, Splicer Baron]] and [[Splicer Walker]] against the Guardians. | |||
They then reach the lair and find Sepiks protected by a SIVA immunity shield which can only be dismantled by destroying the nearby [[SIVA Node]]s. Sepiks enters battle with Splicer reinforcements and blasts them with its upgraded SIVA Servitor Eye blasts. Throughout the battle, Sepiks teleports to generate different elemental Shields that require the use of [[Shock Cannon|Shock]], [[Scorch Cannon|Scorch]] and [[Null Cannon]] to disengage it. Despite its new tactical abilities, Sepiks was unable to fend off the assault and finally destroyed for good.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://youtu.be/Xrqy4xPbqt0 Sepiks Perfected Strike]''</ref> | |||
==Gameplay== | |||
===Sepiks Prime=== | |||
Sepiks Prime is at first invulnerable but immobile; it will drop its shield and start attacking once all Fallen in the area have been killed. It then attacks in a manner similar to a normal [[Servitor]], firing Void Blasts periodically while teleporting to fixed positions around the area. It may prove to be a hard-to-reach target when at high elevations. If a [[Guardian]] is in close enough proximity, Sepiks will continuously wield a deadly health-draining ability called "Servitor Attack" until the Guardian is dead or moves out of range. Sepiks Prime's weak spot is its eye.<ref>'''Bungie (2014-6-12)''', ''Destiny: Alpha PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard.''</ref> Killing Sepiks is a [[Vanguard]] [[bounty]].<ref name = "Companion">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJsIY7RrVuY '''Youtube''': ''Destiny Companion App Walkthrough'']</ref> | |||
=== | ===Sepiks Perfected=== | ||
Sepiks Perfected is encountered twice in the ''[[Rise of Iron]]'' expansion. It is first encountered in the [[King of the Mountain]] [[Story Mission]], where it can be seen leading an assault on [[Felwinter Peak]] to destroy the [[Iron Temple]]. [[Saladin Forge|Lord Saladin]] orders the [[Guardian]] to kill it fast or Felwinter Peak is officially taken over by the [[Devil Splicers]]. Upon reaching the top of the mountain, Sepiks Perfected will appear to launch an ambush. It attacks by firing bursts of five [[Solar]] Eye Blasts that have high velocity and a tracking ability. In addition, it can fly, levitate, and teleport around the area at will, and can always call upon reinforcements. If faced up close, it will launch a sustained beam that drains [[Guardian]]s' shields in seconds. Your best bet will be to fight back from afar. When defeated, the mission ends, but Sepiks Perfected isn't officially dead. | Sepiks Perfected is encountered twice in the ''[[Rise of Iron]]'' expansion.

Sepiks Perfected makes its last stand at [[The Devils' Lair (strike)|The Devils' Lair]] [[Strike]]. It will have all the aforementioned abilities and will behave like | Sepiks Perfected makes its last stand at [[The Devils' Lair (strike)|The Devils' Lair]] [[Strike]]. It will have all the aforementioned abilities and will behave like its predecessor, but this time around, it has new capabilities. For one, it plants down [[SIVA Node]]s for area denial, some of which cannot be destroyed; if near one of these, you will be inflicted with the "SIVA Swarm" debuff. It will also be significantly more durable than before purely in terms of health count. However, the main mechanic is an elemental shield that can only be taken down using heavy artillery cannons dropped by certain [[Splicer Captain]]s: [[Shock Captain]]s for [[Arc]], [[Splicer Scorch Captain]]s for [[Solar]], and [[Null Captain]]s for [[Void]], in that particular order. It will bring up these shields one after another when the previous one goes down. Beware that each cannon only has one round that can be fired. Once all three shields are brought down, it will become permanently vulnerable, allowing Guardians to unleash all their attacks on it, finally laying waste to Sepiks Perfected for good. | ||
=== | ===Destiny 2=== | ||
Sepiks Prime returns in its original form in the revamped version of [[The Devils' Lair (Destiny 2)|The Devil's Lair]] [[Strike]] in ''[[Destiny 2]]''. It will once again start the fight after the Fallen it is nourishing are slain. Sepiks's tactics are not much different from before, keeping to the distance initally, firing Void blasts, and letting its considerably increased reinforcements do the heavy lifting. After it is near two thirds of its health, Sepiks Prime will teleport to the center of the arena and summon four [[Unyielding Servitor]]s, which will shield it from all harm. These servitors must be slain to continue the battle. Sepiks will repeat this tactic once more after it is close to a third of its helth remaining, and will then remain vulnerable until slain. | |||
