Destiny 2's Lore gives us enough details to see how powerful each of the dungeon bosses that we've faced over the years is. But which boss is the most powerful according to the lore? And how do they compare to their Raid Boss counterparts? Today I went through most of the significant dungeon bosses and gave them a tier ranking according to their power in the lore!

I have to say I was a little disappointed we didn't throw Nezarec into this tier list while we had it up, since he came out since the last one and it would feel really awkward making an entire video for a single raid boss. Sure he's a pushover in game, but lore wise he has a lot of implications, from being able to wield both light and dark, being the source of the nightmares, and being a chosen disciple of the witness with huge cults following him.

Of course, he’d make a great big bad for an expansion in the next saga. I feel, then, is when we will find a way to permanently kill/erase Nezarec. Albeit, we may be fighting him in is original, darker, form. Without the light, but only using darkness and nightmares.

About the Taken of The Nine, I do recall a piece of lore about The Drifter deploying Primevals to clear out a Gambit arena of Cabal occupants. It's hardly a fearsome achievement, given that we destroy Primevals all the time in Gambit, but it does show that they have a measure of power against non-paracausal combatants, and that they are a very real force on the battlefield, able to be directed by someone sufficiently knowledgeable and powerful. He also summoned a Captain to kill that one Shadow of Yor, but he wasn't able to fully control it at the time. I'd wager that The Drifter and his own personal breed of Taken are a much more formidable force than anyone truly realises. I think The Drifter may be the only thing close to the idea of "allied" Taken we're ever going to get.

​@@harrisonhamilton5284 Yeah, I forgot that some of the lore regarding Gambit has seen other guardians die for good against Primevals. It's pretty easy to forget just how dangerous Gambit actually is. That just makes Drifter and his personal army even more of a threat. He could likely stage a serious attack on the Last City if he wanted to, I'm beginning to understand why the Vanguard were so scared. With that in mind, I think the Kell Echo might actually be a serious to the two Hive guardians on the list and anything weaker than them. It's powerful enough that it could canonically kill a guardian, and it's paracausal (assuming Bungie really meant to imply that being Taken grants one a small measure of paracausal power, as it did for Quria)

​​@@FEDsShotMOMShe's not really a Mary Sue though. Regardless of what anyone's opinions are on the character. She doesn't fit the definition unless you disregard all of her story that has built her up to this point. She hasn't always been depicted as this powerful and she's developed/trained a lot to actually get to this point. It's even outright stated in the witch queen CE lore that her power wasn't even originally a fraction of what it is now, and that any Guardian can become as powerful as her. She also continues to make mistakes, have flaws and also learn from them, further developing her character. She also doesn't always learn from these things right away. A Mary Sue wouldn't have done any of that at all. It's taken her hundreds of years of development to get to the point she's at now and there are many lore pieces and bits of dialogue explaining this and her flaws. Which again, a Mary Sue wouldn't have. The lore/narrative team have gone to great lengths to make sure she isn't a Mary Sue. A good example of a Mary Sue would be Rey from star wars, who fits the definition pretty well. Or the player character in the event that you choose a female. Although I don't think the word should be exclusive to women, and them being the player character also plays a role in it. Not that it should sway the fact really. I mean it's cool if you view her like that I suppose lol and of course you can have your own opinions on a character, that's completely understandable. You don't have to like her. But calling her a Mary Sue is incorrect by the very definition of the word. And I'm not quite sure what you're referring to when you say she whines a lot.

Campaign bosses might be a inteesting to add to the tier list too. You have Fallen like Erimas who have been shown to be able to kill hive guardians with ease but you would also have heavy hitters like Savathun that might be able to beat out Oryx then we have wild cards like Calus who being empowered by the witness might be stronger then Crota. If you want to expand the list we can count antognist for different seasons as well like Siviks and the undying mind.

I wonder how well the Lucent Hive would have done if they hadn't been caught out in enemy territory (assuming that Titan's oceans are Xivu's "territory"), or even if the Lightblade had been there. I personally feel that Alak-Hul was deliberately holding back at Savathun's request during the Witch Queen campaign, and that at this point he could easily rival Crota in his prime.
@kcop1882
@kcop1882 10 ай бұрын
I mean if we take Finch's word for it, Alak-Hul was a contender with Oryx, he had the ambition and ability to push for it. I think without a doubt, in addition to being adorned with the light, Alak-Hul could tread over what Crota was capable of if given the chance, I suppose it's largely out of what Alak-Hul is prepared to go out and do on his own, but if you've got immortality to push you on, as we as guardians do, he stands every chance of getting stronger and stronger. I think that Alak-Hul not being there is potentially a good thing, since it does seem that the resurrection of Oryx was a desperate gambit, and we'll likely get to see him resurge in future content, possibly alongside the *SPOILERS* Resurrection of the Witch Queen. I think resurrecting enemies is fucking cool, with the way the universe of destiny is set up, it makes for genuinely massive set pieces. The Hive have got a potentially amazing story progression to go forward with in the current lore, between Savathun and Xivu I'm really intrigued to see it develop.

​@@nexesses1548we usually face raid bosses at the apex of their power, with the exception of Nezarec and the Planetary Core. We have to fight them in their home turf, where they have access to various defense mechanisms of their own facility. Meanwhile, the raiding party are blinded, because unlike Vanguard Strikes where someone would guide us and tell us about the mechanics, no one is there to help us in raids. We fought Atheon in the only place it can exist since Atheon is bound to the Vault of Glass, and we had to surpass Atheon's lesser Minds to actually get to it. Rhulk was confined within his Pyramid due to Savathun's curse of Light upon her Throne World, but we had to fight him at the center of his own Pyramid, right above the Upended, where his power is at its greatest, not to mention his capability to manipulate the Pyramid's inner structures to his advantage, something Rhulk wouldn't be able to perform outside of his ship. On the other hand, guardians have never fought raid bosses at the apex of their power. The one time we kinda did was back in the Red War campaign when we reconnected to the Light using the Shard of the Traveller. For a brief moment, our supers were always in the state of being supercharged, and we were spamming supers left and right, only to be greeted by some common dregs. We have never fought any boss right under a free and awakened Traveller, with the Last City's multiple turrets, gunships, Drake Tanks, combat droids, and other Guardians at our disposal. Meanwhile, every single raid bosses we have fought always have their own army at their command, and will always have a mechanism or two to defend themselves, while raiding Guardians have limited revives because of the Darkness zone.

Still trying to find the source on the second, though.

The other guy promoted ikora, I’ll promote osiris. It’s more a funny rant you don’t have to read the thing. I mean it’s true but it’s like hilariously long. Use 7 supers at once. Dual wielded Dawnblades, Nova Bomb whilst holding a Dawnblade in the other hand. Can create Echoes, clones of light that can use supers, gain information, fight and operate independently. He can see through them, summon them any place and relocating them on a whim. He was everywhere at once at the battle of the 6 fronts, fighting on every front at the same time. There are stories of Shaxx meeting entire fireteams of Warlocks who have no shadow and never blink. In his prime he was in a permanent state of Radiance. A state where you become one with the light, slip beyond the physical, become virtually invincible, able to self revive like a Phoenix and “pluck yourself out of nothingness.” A sunslinger holds immense power and when in radiance “has light enough for his enemies, his friends and the friends of their friends.” Osiris his radiance shone so bright, Eris morn couldn’t even look at him. So even among sunsingers he was exceptional beyond belief. Being a sunsinger can’t be learned unlike the others. You have to be exceptionally lucky and gifted to be able to hear the music and even more lucky, gifted and passionate to make light sing with fire burning in your soul. His talent and genius is like one of a kind across history. He later upgraded his echoes to “Reflections.” Osiris on the difference: “One is a manifestation of Light. The other… reserved for Taken Kings.” And unlike echoes there doesn’t seem to be a limit to how many he can summon, sending them to infinite timelines. They are just as powerful and even more real than Echoes. On top of that he doesn’t have to waste light energy to keep them up or create them. He proved he can use them outside the infinite forest, mostly to get out of meetings across the galaxy. He is playing with paracausal power never held by any guardian other than him, power of hive gods. After he opened a vexgate, walking into this planet sized supercomputer made to simulated entire realities with unlimited timelines, a hellish landscape which no one had ever escaped alive, managed to master the vex tech to augment his abilities to godly levels, fighting the vex in an infinite number of timelines with an infinite number of reflections. He survived millennia of simulated time in the infinite forest without a ghost. Stoped simulated time, saw the future and even travel through time. He was the one and only reason our guardian could navigate and even leave the infinite forest. This speaks to his ridiculous cunning and intelligence.

The double hive that killed Zulmak would be an interesting boss to fight if it’s still alive, like design wise that could give us a super cool looking. Heck seeing how savathun will be revived next season or s24 she may want to remove any other hive threats that isn’t Xivu and this hive fusion boss could be one of those threats still on the moon We have a dungeon coming later on and my guess on who we fight is probably something scorn/taken/hive or maybe vex. This will be the last one before final shape and seeing how dungeons are tied to the story so this dungeon will probably help wrap things up. It could be hive/taken to handle Xivu story or maybe taken/scorn and it goes into the fanatics story cause we have no clue where he is or if he has his own will or the witness. With the fallen/cabal being left out we kinda don’t need to fight them like calus is dead and the fallen are to divided

I agree with a lot if not all of your assessments. Ranking the night mares so high makes sense to me, considering they are a “fragment of Nezarec’s power” (technically?) even in someone’s mind. And I’d say a fragment of that power is more than that of a lot is not all of the non paracausal threats, and even minor paracausal ones.

It should be noted that the Taken within prophecy can actually be deployed as a combat force, both within gambit and loosely under Drifter’s control (see the cutscene where Drifter uses a “counterfeit” taken to prevent his own execution at the hands of a Dredgen). Its also heavily implied that the Primevals that are summoned have immense paracausal power, considering the heart of a counterfeit Voice of Riven’s heart was used to forge the paracausal weapon Malfeasance, a weapon specifically designed to match the powers of the original Golden Gun. Under these pretenses, I would make the case that the Kell Echo deserves a much, much higher ranking, and is likely on par with C tier at minimum. Keep in mind that the Nine were able to even counterfeit a pre-raid boss Oryx. Finally, I would offer what the implications of the Nine as “sentient dark matter” are: this is largely speculative, but it is helpful to understand dark matter as the inverse of matter, meaning the “counterfeit” taken are the inverse of the taken they emulate. When equal parts of matter and dark matter are combined, the result is nothing, therefore, the inverse represents a direct one to one comparison to the “original”, simply phrased as a negative, similar to a parabolic graph.

I didn’t get a chance to say it on the raid boss video so I’ll say it here. I think Aksis belongs in B tier, just above or below Atheon. Siva, while not paracausal, is immensely powerful. Rasputin used it to slaughter the Iron Lords and hundreds of light bearing Iron Wolves as well. The Iron Lords seem to be some of the most experienced and powerful lightbearers humanity as ever seen and they were cut down with ease through the power of Siva. Paracausality does not always trump, Atheon proves that in the vault by defeating Praydeth and Kabr despite not technically being paracausal itself. I also find it relevant that Atheon’s power resided almost entirely within the Vault. It was able to manipulate time to that degree because the vault is a pocket dimension where the Vex can change the rules more easily (like the Black Garden). Aksis however could have taken his army of splicers and his power over matter itself anywhere. Also if we are looking at these bosses at the height of their power as you say, Aksis still has the replication complex online and pumping out more and more Siva. His mastery over Siva essentially gave him the power over matter to the same degree that Atheon had over time. The only difference was Aksis was less limited by where he could exercise this power. I’m not saying he even beats out the sanctified mind, but I think you did him a little dirty with the C tier.

Well, I wouldn't really say that hunter is dead because of two things: One, that Taken Captain summoned by Drifter only knocked him over the edge. And Two, there was no confirmation (at least from what I know of in terms of lore) that the hunter was killed after being knocked off.

Hear me out. I do believe the Kell Echo is the middle of C tier and here’s why. Like you said he’s a taken copy of Eramis. Now sure in the gameplay he doesn’t use stasis. But he does have the Dark Entropy debuff. I think that can justify him having a good grasp on paracausality in it’s own. Compared to Ghalran who only had hive magic to use I do believe the kell echo is stronger. But hey your the lore guy. I’m just some nerd who likes prophecy. Great video btw 🎉❤

I would rate the Echo (and maybe the Nightmares) a touch higher, if only on the grounds of the "at the height of their power" rule. Also, a request; the tierlist videos have been great thus far, but I would like to see major story bosses (both expansion and seasonal) ranked before Strike bosses (although admittedly there is some overlap). I could be wrong, but characters like Light-infused Ghaul, Fikrul and his Barons, Disciple Calus, the Undying Mind, Xivu Arath's Celebrant... SAVATHUN... all seem more interesting to discuss than the Strike bosses, the vast majority of whom are just regularly strong dudes.

I still find it hilarious that the gigachad Val Cauor, despite being the weakest raid boss canonically, is arguably the hardest boss fight in Destiny. I really like the idea of the Red Legion rallying around a charismatic and brave low ranking officer after we decimate their command structure. And in true Cabal fashion, he went down swinging. Led from the front lines as the last of the Legion makes a final stand against the guardians and the traitor Calus. He went for broke, and was a complete underdog. A great way to close out the Red War.

So I think there is something I’ve been meaning to ask. We know Deepsight opens memories and that Savathun tested the use of it on Guardians on Uldren and used us to open her memories in a preferred method. But doesn’t that mean that some of the other Hive Guardians also have had Deepsight used to bring back memories. Otherwise, why else would Simmunah’s past skills matter here? It might be that some hive given past memories to make up for that lack of experience that was mentioned. I also recall a lore piece mentioning a hive guardian scratching a rune pattern out if comfort even though it had no power. This would imply memory, but how would a guardian have memory unless they used deepsight to recover it?

In terms of the hive guardians I think a thing we should consider is that they still use hive magic & rituals to bolster their power, infact Šimmumah uses Nokris’s forbidden Necromancy magic, a wide assortment of magic that makes her quite formidable. However I like to think with Šimmumah, that we used part of Oryx’s essence to weaken & defeat her, Oryx has always had an obsession with death to the point he wanted to be death, and whenever we successfully crack a rune, it reads “Death calls Šimmumah” as if Oryx’s soul is attempting to drag Šimmumah down. Perhaps I’m reading far too into it or perhaps by interfering with a necromancy ritual it makes her vulnerable to death. I’m not 100% informed about the depths of the hive Magic, all I know is that it seems like a deadly powerful combination that puts her closer to Crota.

You should also try to sneak in a couple of characters into the list like savathun, Eramis, nezarec, and disciple calus. They just seem like important characters to the lore that should be mentioned, even if they are not in a raid or dungeon. (Of course nezarec is, but he’s not in the list yet)

the hive guardians also have a lesser personal arsenal in comparison to us both in their actual weapons and the fact that they seem to be locked into one subclass and one type of grenade and super. correct me if they can change, they just don't, but even so, we have stasis and strand which they definitely don't.

You missed Akelous, The Siren's Current - Spire of the Watcher's first boss. Though I would not rank him too high anyway, though it is something to be said lore wise as Persys was the last resort, whereas Akelous was the first line of attack and I believe tied directly to the Vex Network trying to hack into the Spire. For Šimmumah I agree wth some additions: so far the only people who have "resurrected" Hive God sare other actual Hive Gods, and combined with other lore where a ghost can only resurrect a soul that AGREES to it, It goes to say that she was actually going to either resurrect with the ghost (the "easy" way) or force him to come back, which may have been partially successful. According to a Hidden report, Oryx is not physically dead when we get to him. There is also the addendum that she resurrected the weakest member of the Court of Oryx, Vorlog, someone who I very much doubt would have come back willingly as a member of the Court of Oryx, and we know of Hive taking themselves out post resurrection even when revived by Ghosts (Jynx lore).

I don't mind the rankings, I think they are mostly accurate to what I thought they would be. My only little problem is how you call them Hive Guardians because I personally think they should just be called Hive Lightbearers, as Guardians didn't have that name to start with neither should they. For me a Guardian is a human who has been revived by a Ghost to protect humanity and the Traveler. I think calling the hive ones lightbearers or risen works, but guardian is to the ones protecting the City. But again, this is my personal opinion and how I call them, please I don't want anyone getting rude with me for this comment (It happened before somewhow lol). And thanks for doing another tier list, I was already thinking on where the dungeon bosses would end up when I watched the first video.

Honestly not mentioning the double edge sword that is the Dreaming City Curse was a bit of a mistake. Dul Incaru may be eternally resurrected, sure, but she's trapped repeating the same cycle over and over again. Doomed to die endlessly in a quest that seemingly never bares fruit, if the Dark Future lore is anything to go by. Knocking her down a few spots would easily be justified.
