Siviks, Lost to None: Difference between revisions

After the [[Whirlwind]], When many Eliksni were derelict in the void of space, [[The Spider|Rakis]] and Siviks were given to [[Misraaks]]'s Mother, [[Inaaks]], as hatchlings by [[Eramis]], despite being able to take care of their own. The two would become reluctant friends of Misraaks and, because they were older than him, would protect him from other Eliksni adolescents looking to steal Misraaks' Ether when Inaaks wasn't looking.

It is possible that Siviks also possessed a level of charisma as he was able to rally a great number of Fallen to his side after the [[Scorn]]'s failure and the continued losses the House of Dusk faced. However, this doesn't mean he valued their loyalty, as he left his followers to face the Guardians constantly while fleeing to safety. Only at the Niobe Labs did Siviks face the Guardians face-to-face but aided extensively by his Kell's Scourge and stolen Black Armory technology.

The player next encountered Siviks in Niobe Labs, where he had to be stopped from opening the Bergusia Forge. He fought the player during the first level, where he opened fire with his [[Molten Welder]], which fires explosive [[Solar]] shrapnel that deals serious damage to Guardian shields from long range in an area of effect, and also would occasionally throw a [[Swarm Grenade]] that functions near-identically to those used by [[Gunslinger]]s, the exception being that the drones only spread out in a pattern and explode, but do not seek out and home in on players. He was protected by shield drones, which had to be shot at to be able to damage him. After sustaining severe damage, Siviks retreated to the control room and activated the lab's security functions. The player then had to solve a puzzle or be wiped by the [[Fires of Avarice]]. After the puzzle was solved, then the next level began. Siviks sent in more dangerous enemies in bigger numbers, altered the playing space with Energy Barriers, and used Splinter Mines to destroy the player. He returned back to the fight during the combat section of the final level using the same tactics as before, but retreated again after the waves have been cleared.

Siviks fought the Guardian once more during their final engagement in the Bergusia Forge, as the last part of the [[Lock and Key]] quest. He once again used his Molten Welder to attack, and his shield drones kept him protected throughout the entire battle. However, one thing to note is that when his health reached 66%, he switched his weapon to a [[Wire Rifle]], which allowed him to hammer the player with long-range precision fire, due to the hard-hitting, fast-traveling [[Arc]] bolt discharged from the weapon. After the player reduced his health to 33%, Siviks switched to a [[Shrapnel Launcher]], which lacks long range stopping power, but can be dangerous to fight against up close due to multiple [[Solar]] shrapnel shots hitting the target at once. He used the Shrapnel Launcher for the rest of the battle. It was recommended for the player to stay in the back and face Siviks from a distance, as this fight became much more dangerous when taking place out in the open unless using powerful close-range attacks. After Siviks was finally defeated, he dropped an artifact that grants the player [[Izanagi's Burden]].
