===Overview=== | |||
Kraviks started out as a high-ranking [[Baron]] who served as [[Raksil, Archon Priest|Raksil]]'s bodyguard during the Experimental Treatment crisis. Raksil appeared in the Enhance World Quest as a boss for the Experimental Treatment mission. In the European Dead Zone, Raksil, Archon Priest and the Prime Servitor, Serkuleks, the Fount, were responsible for distributing an enhanced variety of ether by using modified Cabal technology. This would strengthen the Fallen into a class known as Empyrean, but the efforts of Raksil would later be put to a halt by the Guardians. | |||
With the death of Raksil, Kraviks fell into the rank of Archon Rising. He was called in for a ritual for the joining of his enhanced ether dosage with a corrupted sample of SIVA. He turned into a towering, twisted monster with his flesh pulsating with nanite burns and his gaze became entirely machinated. Kraviks finally saw the world the way he had always wanted to see it. Soon after, he raided the [[European Dead Zone]] for remnant ether samples in an act of insanity. His frenzied temperament made him something else entirely; anything that caught his sight would be overwhelmed by feedback. Eventually, he was returned to [[Site 6]] to guard the Dusk Splicers' rituals under the order of Thralkis, Kell Prime. From here on out, Kraviks served as the Prime Archon of the Dusk Splicers. | |||

===Overview=== | |||
Thralkis previously served as a guard for [[Serkuleks, the Fount]]. He was so zealously protective of it, he would lead counter assaults on Guardian efforts to neutralize the production of their enhanced ether. However, because of his preoccupation with the Guardians, he failed to notice one of them shut Serkuleks down. Karnix, Dusk Archon demoted him from a [[Baron]] to a [[Vandal]] by feeding on some of his enhanced ether shortly before chaining him to a wall of spikes as a form of torture. He remained tortured for several days and his wounds became infected. But, using his incredible strength, he broke free of the chains and gone rabid, tearing off Karnix's lower arms with his sharp teeth, who later had to run off in fear of ever encountering Thralkis again. His infection had given him increased physical strength and aggression, the kind unseen in other Fallen. | |||
He could then continue his rampant ways by attacking both civilians and Guardians of the [[Last City]] alike; he was practically a wild animal that couldn't be controlled for months. After the infection partially wore off, Thralkis regained his cognitive skills and could finally become a functioning member of the upper echelon of the Dusk Splicers. His ritual replaced most of his natural muscle mass with hardened SIVA strains, and his brain was connected to the rest of his body via nanites which protruded his skin in several regions in his body, effectively causing him to bleed. To contain this hemorrhaging, he donned a heavy SIVA exoskeleton with external weapon systems and extra appendages, enabling him to wield multiple weapons at once. His scars remained hidden to the rest of the world, and all Guardians could ever look at was a rumbling metallic monstrosity... | |||

===Origins=== | |||
Before he was Taken, Draliks was a [[Baron]] and an elite stealth operative for the [[House of Dusk]]. He used to be one of the most feared assassins, even amongst his crewmates, due to his tendency to seemingly vanish into nothingness and then ambush his victims from unexpected, almost impossible angles. His training gave him the ability to turn invisible at will and could attract virtually no attention, thus making him a prime candidate for leading spy missions conducted by gangs of [[Marauder]]s. However, one fateful mission, the Taken on Saturn caught on to him, formed a parasitic link to his essence, and brought him to Halkris, who used the power of the Deep to Take his soul and corrupt him beyond mental repair, and even twisted his mind to have a mental consciousness that matched his own. He now lurks deep within a helium mining station, waiting to be called on by Halkris to run a stealth mission to claim any unsuspecting victims. | |||

This encounter will take place in a Darkness Dimension, where health regeneration is greatly limited, ability recharge rates are slowed down, and abilities deal less damage. Halkris will remain immune to all weapon damage throughout the entire fight and fly around the arena attacking with his weapons, flanking the raid team on all sides. Periodically, he will summon circles of black fire on top of all Guardians that will deal damage over time before releasing a detonation that can instantly kill anyone that hasn't gotten out of that respective circle. There will be an onslaught of Viruses from each former race that will appear out of the regular sphere [[Blight]]s, which will inflicted the "Shadow Touched" effect (where sprinting, health regeneration, jumping abilities, and melee abilities are cancelled), but pay special attention to unique [[Major]]s called "Contagions" that come from the domed blights that inflict the "Taken Blight" debuff when inside, where health will periodically be drained. Contagions will remain immune until their respective domed blight is killed, sending them into a backlash for a short time, leaving them vulnerable. Killing them will grant the "Blight Receding" buff, which is needed for killing the regular blights, but leave these alone for now. After all the Contagions are killed, an [[Ultra]] Corrupted Colossus called a "Viral Colossus" will appear. He will be resistant to all damage until all the regular blights are killed in a certain order within a time limit. If the wrong blight is killed or it takes too long to kill a blight before it disappears, then Halkris will inflict all Guardians with a debuff called "Grasp of the King", which will rapidly drain all ability charges. The only to counteract this debuff is for those with the "Blight Receding" buff to deal enough damage to the Viral Colossus before the Corrupted Decree spell is cast, immediately killing the entire party. Once enough damage is dealt to him, the Blight will reappear. Once all the blights are killed in the correct order, they will each leave behind a pool of green energy that allowed for full damage capability against the Colossus for those who stand in them. The longer the Guardians stay in the plate, the more stacks of the "Rising Light" buff they receive, allowing Guardians to deal more damage. However, stepping off the plate will decrease the stacks of the buff. If the buff runs out of stacks, then Halkris will cast the Blighted Light spell against them, immediately killing them. The Colossus must be killed as quickly as possible, or else Halkris will cast the Doxology spell, immediately killing everyone. The only way to counteract this effect is to deal enough damage to the Colossus within these intervals. When the Colossus is killed, the plates become fully empowered. Those who stand on them for long enough will be torn between dimensions, and the plates will disappear. | This encounter will take place in a Darkness Dimension, where health regeneration is greatly limited, ability recharge rates are slowed down, and abilities deal less damage.

When torn between Dimensions, two effects will be applied: the | When torn between Dimensions, two effects will be applied: the "Torn Between Dimensions" buff and the "Viral Dimension" debuff. The buff will grant invisibility from the enemies in the material dimension as well as a damage increase against them, but the debuff will suppress Guardian abilities and reduce resilience, mobility, and recovery values by 100%. Darkness Spheres will also periodically appear in this dimension as well, which will poison and slow anyone that steps inside. When in the Viral Dimension, there will be a series of platforms that form a jumping puzzle which will eventually lead to a large upper platform with a series of monuments: a Fallen sigil, a Hive sword, a Vex spire, and a Cabal insignia. These monuments will be immune to damage and launch a special attack respective to their Corrupted counterpart: the sigil will launch Darkness Bolts, the sword will launch fire tornadoes, the spire will fire Retaliation Swarms, and the insignia will fire Axion Darts. Each monument will remain immune until an elite Corrupted enemy that corresponds to it is killed in each dimension, requiring two to be killed: one in the material realm and the other in the Viral realm. Failure to kill each monument in time will result in a special kind of death on the whole team: the sigil will cast Exsanguination, the sword will cast Searing Torrent, the Spire will cast Prophecy of Doom, and the insignia will cast Bombardment. Once the monuments are destroyed, they will each leave behind a pillar of Light that will transport the inside team back outside to the main arena and gain the "Torrential Light" buff, overturning the effects of the Darkness Dimension and Viral Dimension debuffs and drastically decreasing Super and ability cooldowns. | ||
Back in the main arena, there will be special plates that appear in each corner of the arena. Only those with the buff can stand on them. Standing on it long enough will summon a Shade of Halkris, a smaller, shadowy projection of Halkris himself, except armed with an Infected Blade. Only those with the buff are able to damage the Shade, who can only take damage from abilities and Supers. Once the Shade reaches 50% health, Halkris will cast a plague spell that causes viral particles to appear on the floor that will cause rapid damage over time to those who do not stand on the plates. This plague appears every 20 seconds and lingers for 10 seconds at a time. If the Shade is not killed quickly enough, then a giant Taken rift will appear, and the Shade will retreat inside of it. If this rift is not destroyed quickly enough, then it will collapse, releasing a detonation that will kill the entire team. This rift must be killed quickly to get the Shade to reappear.

Once the Shade dies, it will drop a column of Light that will grant the "Boundless Light" buff to any Guardian that runs through it, which almost instantly recharges abilities and Supers. Halkris will then be vulnerable to damage from Guardian Supers and abilities for 45 seconds. | ||

{{Quote|It appears the wielders of the [[Light]] ask for nothing more than the annihilation of the [[Darkness]]. Little do they know that I maintain the balance between them both, by offerings from the Void. Anyone who disrupts this balance by any means WILL pay the price.| Nezarec|quote}} | |||
'''Nezarec, God of | '''Nezarec, Final God of Pain''' is a malevolent deity who oversees and controls the [[Void]] Dimension. He transcends all known power in the universe and seeks the downfall of all who refuse his offerings of the Void. Nezarec serves as the main boss of the Dusk Tunnel [[Raid]]. | ||

====Main Weapons & Abilities==== | |||
When inside his dome, Nezarec will use one of three weapons. His primary weapon is a heavily modified [[Touch of Malice]] that fires high-velocity rounds which inflict a stacking poison effect, increasing the damage per tick for every shot fired; the weapon's rate of fire and velocity increases each time the poison deals damage. Nezarec's secondary weapon is a modified Black Spindle that fires Void rounds which cause a disorientation effect upon impact, causing [[Guardian]]s' view to blur and swirl, limiting their awareness; if three consecutive shots are landed, the weapon's damage dramatically increases for a short time, allowing it to instantly kill Guardians with one shot. For emergency situations, Nezarec uses a heavily modified [[Truth]] that fires seeking warheads which emit a radiation cloud upon detonation, temporarily inflicting a debuff that drains Guardians' shields and health, causes them to perform different actions than intended, and prevents them from jumping; kills with this weapon increase the warhead's blast radius and velocity as well as the radius of the radiation cloud. When outside the dome, Nezarec employs a one-handed greatblade that, upon a hit, will cause its target to bleed and have their field of view turn red; this blade can also fire energy waves that push Guardians backward upon impact. | When inside his dome, Nezarec will use one of three weapons.

*If ''above the player'', Nezarec will launch a large [[Nova Bomb]] that seeks its target and creates smaller seeker projectiles upon detonating and leaves a highly damaging vortex in its wake. The seeker projectiles temporarily jam the players' equipped weapon upon impact, preventing it from firing. | *If ''above the player'', Nezarec will launch a large [[Nova Bomb]] that seeks its target and creates smaller seeker projectiles upon detonating and leaves a highly damaging vortex in its wake.

As Nezarec sends in waves of [[Forum:The Void|Shadows]] for backup, the player will notice three tall columns with a glyph plate on each. Approaching these pillars will cause it to activate both a concussive blast, that knocks Guardians back, and a sentry gun that fires high-explosive Void darts at a constant rate. These sentries can be temporarily disabled and reactivate after 30 seconds. Each time a turret is disabled, a Shade of Nezarec will appear. | As Nezarec sends in waves of [[Forum:The Void|Shadows]] for backup, the player will notice three tall columns with a glyph plate on each.

Once on the plates, the player will turn invisible and the plates will lift them upwards to another platform, where there will be a horde of Shadows that they need to get past, as there is a chest on the other end of the large upper platform. If physical contact is made, then the horde attacks, and the chest is locked until the horde is defeated. Inside the chest, are three large sparks of lost Light that must be picked up. As the plates carry the Guardians downward, the sparks must be aimed and thrown at Nezarec's dome to break it. As Nezarec's dome is broken, it will grant the whole team the ability to deal Void damage with all of their weapons and abilities, which will help with breaking his energy shield. Removing Nezarec's shield holds him in place, opening him up to damage to 50 seconds. | Once on the plates, the player will turn invisible and the plates will lift them upwards to another platform, where there will be a horde of Shadows that they need to get past, as there is a chest on the other end of the large upper platform.

At 50% health, the arena will change into a gigantic circular arena surrounded with a black dome. Nezarec will no longer be surrounded by a dome, but his energy shield remains, all of his weapons are active, and his attacks and movements are faster. In addition, he gains new attacks based on how many Guardians are surrounding him within a certain radius: | At 50% health, the arena will change into a gigantic circular arena surrounded with a black dome.

Nezarec will be open to damage, although more damage is able to be done through a special mechanic. There will be Void flames lighted up throughout the arena; running through them will grant both a buff that allows for more damage to be dealt to him and his shield as well as a burning debuff. After ten seconds the flame will expire, and if the Guardian does not look away from Nezarec, then Nezarec's gaze will instantly kill them. When his health reaches 25%, he will be able to summon a black hole that will pull Guardians towards it for 10 seconds at a time. This attack will be executed once every 90 seconds and the only way to survive is to run in the opposite direction.

As soon as Nezarec's health reaches 5%, he will cause the ceiling to turn into a black energy and fall on the raid team. Nezarec's shield will drop, and he must be downed quickly, lest they be crushed by the weight of the Void. Once his his health reaches 0.01%, he will vanish from the arena and the black energy will stop falling. Nezarec will return... | ||
