'''The Templar''' is an extremely powerful [[Vex]] [[Hydra]] found in the [[Vault of Glass (raid)|Vault of Glass]]. Unlike normal Axis Minds, the Templar is unique in it being a creature out of time, and can thus manipulate reality in according to the [[Oracle]]s' design. It, along with the Oracles, guards the way to the deeper sections of the Vault. <ref>'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard''</ref> | |||

The Templar will spawn, but will be completely immune to damage thanks to its shield, which protects its entire chassis. It will also fire its [[Aeon Maul]] to suppress players and keep them behind cover. While this occurs, confluxes will show up in the left, middle and right of the arena. These confluxes must be defended from all Vex that approach them. Once 4 Vex units sacrifice themselves to any of the confluxes, the Templar will have a sufficient power level to expunge the entire raid team, immediately wiping them. The players will not only have to focus on defending the confluxes, but the Templar will also summon unique Vex units named [[Fanatic]]s, which, when killed or get too close to you, leave behind a large, green puddle. Players should avoid stepping in these circles, for if they do, they will be marked for negation. If a player is marked for negation, they must run to the pool of [[Light]] in the center of the arena to cleanse themselves, or they will instantly be killed when the Templar performs the Ritual of Negation. | ||

The [[Oracle]]s will initially spawn one by one in a random order and cannot be damaged. After doing this twice, the oracles will all spawn at once, requiring your team to destroy the oracles matching the previously-shown order. This will repeat 5 times, with each round of oracles increasing the number spawned (from 3 to 7). This also occurs during the fight with the Templar, with 3 oracles spawning and requiring destruction in a random order (4 during the Templar's enraged phase). When the team gets marked for negation after failure to destroy the proper oracles, the team has to cleanse the debuff at the central pool of Light, as the relic shield will no longer cleanse. Oracles will continue to spawn after a set amount of time even if the Templar's teleports are continually blocked (as with the challenge mode). | The [[Oracle]]s will initially spawn one by one in a random order and cannot be damaged.

In the Templar's challenge, the Templar must not be allowed to teleport at all, meaning that encounter must be completed within a single damage phase. In [[Destiny 2]], with the changes to the [[Oracle]]s mechanic and cleansing, the team must either destroy oracles again or risk the negation debuff if damage phase takes too long. | In the Templar's challenge, the Templar must not be allowed to teleport at all, meaning that encounter must be completed within a single damage phase.
