Move?
Should we move this to Oryx, the Taken King to keep it in line with our other pages? -- SFH (talk) 21:11, 18 July 2015 (EDT)
- Has it been confirmed that that's his official title? OmgHAX! (talk) 09:06, 19 July 2015 (EDT)
- Mostly, I'm going by Bungie.net Destinythegame.com, and the descriptions in the trailers which always describe him as "Oryx, the Taken King". Does that qualify? -- SFH (talk) 15:07, 7 August 2015 (EDT)
- Better to wait. Bungie might do something unexpected and make his full name "Oryx, King of the Taken". We'll know for sure as soon as someone beats the new raid and posts video on YouTube. MorningWalker (talk) 15:21, 7 August 2015 (EDT)
Powers/Abilities
Hello, I am just not what the descriptions of some of Oryx's abilities are such as Doxology and Banish to Darkness Dimension, can someone explain when and how he uses it?--CNBA3 (talk) 22:18, 27 September 2015 (EDT)
- They're both abilities Oryx uses in King's Fall. "Doxology" is a team-wipe attack triggered by not stunning Oryx by detontating the spheres dropped by Light-Eater Ogres (if I remember correctly), while "Banish to Darkness Dimension" pulls a player into an isolated area where an enemy called Shade of Oryx must be killed in order to escape.

Can someone enlighten me as to what the ability "King's Decree" is?--CNBA3 (talk) 00:12, 29 October 2015 (EDT)
- Check the "Gameplay" section of the article. That section should have descriptions of known enemy abilities and when they are encountered. MorningWalker (talk) 15:40, 29 October 2015 (EDT)

Death of Oryx and Extinction of the Hive and Taken
So Oryx, the Taken King is now dead, does this mean without him the Hive and Taken are finally extinct? Titan66 (talk) 18:55, 10 October 2015 (EDT)
- Unfortunately for the Guardians, no. The Taken can hang around indefinitely until someone kills them all, so any Taken that Oryx made before he died are still an active threat. The Hive aren't created by Oryx like the Taken, they're living organisms that can grow and reproduce on their own, so while Oryx's death deprives them of leadership and direction, they are far from in danger of going extinct. Even if we kill all the Hive in the Solar System, Oryx's sisters and their armies are still out in the universe and might show up on our doorstep one day.

The Destruction of the Solar System Hive
So with Oryx, the Taken King assassinated, does this mean all of the Solar System's Hive will all be consumed by the Worms and be destroyed? Titan66 (talk) 19:03, 08 December 2015 (EDT)
