'''Valus Mau'ual''' is a [[Cabal]] commander encountered in the [[Shield Brothers]] [[Strike]]. He is a bond-brother with both [[Primus Ta'aun]] and [[Valus Tlu'urn]], and is part of the landing party aboard [[Dantalion Exodus VI]], the [[Cabal warship|warship]] that the [[Skyburners]] ram into the [[Dreadnaught]]. Either as a gambit to compel the [[Hive]] to surrender or to avenge the loss of Primus Ta'aun, Mau'ual and Tlu'urn breach the Dreadnaught's [[The Narthex|power core]] and threaten to destroy it, which would destroy the Hive vessel and take most of the [[Solar System]] with it. In battle, Valus Mau'ual's armor allows him a degree of maneuverability and speed unseen from other Cabal warriors and combined with his [[Solar]]-powered gauntlet, it makes him a dangerous adversary.

Mau'ual and Tlu'urn aid each other in battle against a [[Guardian]] strike team; if Tlu'urn falls first, Mau'ual gains his [[Arc]] cannon and shield projector for the remainder of the battle. <ref>[http://www.twitch.tv/bungie/v/12926414 '''Twitch''' - ''Bungie - Strike the Dreadnaught'']</ref> Mau'ual uses his brother's cannon to even more devastating effect, as he can use it to fire homing missiles like those of a Colossus. However, he will still chase players down and leave Solar traps in his wake as his primary method of attack, so it is recommended that players kill Mau'ual first so that they don't have to run the risk of running from both melee and ranged attacks.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Mau'ual and his brother's helmets look very similar to [[Vro'ourn, Fist of Oryx|Valus Vro'ourn's]] helmet. This may signify the title of Valus among the Skyburners.
*There is a chance upon killing Mau'ual and completing the strike, you'll be rewarded the [[Titan (class)|Titan]] gauntlets [[Mau'ual's Maulers]].
