Every Disciple of the Witness in Destiny 2

[@BrotherShaw]

Rhulk and Nezarec are raid bosses while Calus is a campaign boss. The Witness did say Calus did not put enough effort into what was asked of him. Perhaps that's why he's the weakest Disciple so far?

[@daycrow8651]

He wasn’t strong to begin with just hedonistic

[@jean-philippevidal7719]

He was a pawn from the start. He had to die to allow the Witness to obtain the veil via our ghost. The Witness used Calud and never intended to keep him alive.

[@kuronekochannel2506]

he weak because he is emperor, He was not as good fighting as someone who was a warrior like rhulk and nezarec.

[@ShawndaPrawn]

Didn’t help his case he was only made a Disciple recently. Rhulk had been one for eons and Nezarec for god only knows how long. But Calus? A few months at most.

[@kidneystone1345]

as soon as calus was reshaped, he kept one characteristic that was already dragging him down: Alcoholism, and seeing that most of the richess that the witness could provide were just material assets, but nothing organic, that's when the problem escaleted quickly and Calus ended as the biggest Goof under the name of Disciple

[@ecci0261]

Rhulk set the bar for what a disciple should be but Calus felt like he didn’t live up to the title. He felt more like an asset the Witness exploited just to bolster it’s forces.

[@Eight.OfClubs]

That’s the point, lol. Calus was just a pawn.

[@EpticityOG]

I felt The Witness made Calus a Disciple just as a throw away asset not so much as a longevity type disciple, and to bolster Calus ego and arrogance to make him comply.

[@LordHeliox]

Calus was the "means to an end" literally.

[@rinuko1222]

Calus was never even supposed to link the Veil to the Witness in the first place. Its plan was always to use Calus to force the Guardian to defend the Veil themselves, during which it would use our Ghost to establish the connection. Now it has... whatever it got at the end of Lightfall and a Cabal legion that has shown to easily be made thralls since Leviathan.

[@tippy9480]

i feel like the witness made him a disciple so that calus may feel like the witness’ right hand maybe

[@Burgerzaza]

I mean calus was never a fighter, even among cabal leadership he was weak by comparison because he had people to do his fighting for him. In leviathan, he didn't need to fight you, he had so much abundance he was just amused watching guardians fight their way through his army to get his treasure. Dinner and a show. Plus hes a hive god with his own throne world before he was a disciple, so death was just an inconvenience. And I loved that side of calus, tbh lightfall was a massive character assassination because Calus doesn't serve, that's like his whole thing. Caitl would have let him stay if he would have abdicated and died in obscurity surrounded by wealth. But Calus doesn't serve. He would rather hoard the wealth of the cabal and play games with demigods while he waits for whoever ends up leading the cabal to show up on his doorstep and beg his forgiveness and access to his prosperity. But he overplayed his hand and the homeworld was lost to the hive when he was probably one of the only people who had a fighting chance to stop them, because hive god. Then lightfall rewrote him to be a desperate sniveling coward who would sell his soul for the opportunity at greater power. Even accepting all this, the witness wanted his army, not him. His purpose was to die fighting us so the witness could infiltrate the veil, so him being a pathetic fighter was actually a point in his favor.

I also thought Calus was going to be some sort of threatening enemy that would pop up and be defeated, only for us to fully defeat him in a raid or dungeon (like Oryx). I was really dissappointed when we got a shitty boss battle that was at best, challenging on the Legendary difficulty (which even then isn't that bad when you can swing around the whole time).

[@crasterlongshanks4284]

I think it's interesting that The Witness just had Nezerek's corpse, and would have just kept him. The light is what brought him back, and the darkness doesn't really have a way to undo death, so it's entirely possible that Nezerek, and possibly any number of other disciples held sentimental value to the witness. Of course I believe that this sentimentality would be more akin to valuing a prized possession, but nonetheless, it's interesting. I wonder if there was any particular reason that the witness was on Nezerek's old ship, or if all of the ships have their own disciples. Dead or alive they're clearly extremely powerful foes or artifacts, and the ships are just everywhere in sol.

I really expected Bungie to goes guns a blazing with Beyond Light in finally introducing the 5th enemy race the one attached to the Pyramids and should of shown us The Witness then too. After Shadowkeeps ending its what I expected, from the story I wanted something a new enemy race, instead we have gotten nothing but empty Pyramid ships fighting the same enemies over and over again. There is so much architecture and culture in each Pyramid ship so far, that at some point I refused to believe that there was no new enemy race inside them. But now I honestly probably don’t even expect anything for Final Shape. Would of been more badass if we fought Rhulk with a new enemy race of the Pyramids, same with Nezarec etc. instead we get reused enemies the same ones we keep fighting over and over. Really makes me wish they didn’t introduce the Disciples, until after we had fully dealt with the Hive, Cabal, Vex and Fallen completely( I don’t count the Taken and Scorn as they are essentially headless armies of the story). Would of been better to have had the last 3 DLCs be fully 100% focused on the Pyramid fleets, The Witness, the Disciples, a 5th enemy race, and so much more.

[@Idk-fk4mq]

@@EpticityOG imo i think that it may be possible that they introduce a 5th race in final shape, it makes sense for me because we dealt with the fallen, cabal already the only other race thats following the witness thats not dealt with yet is xivu's hive which will probably be used for seasonal content, also the introduction of tormentors at LF seems off since LF is the setup for final shape so they might be our first glimpse at a new race maybe?

[@EpticityOG]

@@Idk-fk4mq Is it possible yes, but I feel like it’s also very unlikely at this point, they would have shown something more by now. Yes I know the Tormentors are the first official “Pyramid Unit” enemy type, they were such a breath of fresh air, and I got excited when they first got introduced during the reveal but then we later find out that they are pretty much miniature clones of Nezarec, which could mean they could just be a one off new type of enemy. Taking a look at Beyond light we fought against the Darkness powered Fallen, with the secondary enemy being the Vex. In the Witch Queen we fought the Lucent Hive with the secondary Enemy being the Scorn and the Taken to a lesser extent. In Lightfall we fight Darkness empowered Cabal, and the secondary enemy type were the Vex again and once again the Taken to a lesser extent. Based off that I could assume that either A. We fight the Hive but empowered with Darkness abilities, rather than their Hive Magic with the Taken and possibly Scorn taking the secondary role, although I expect it to be the Taken. B. Vex take center stage as they have not been the main Enemy Race since Curse of Osiris. With the Hive taking 2ndary role. Or C. Like you suggested maybe we do get that 5th enemy race or maybe a different pyramid unit. Plus the Hive as the secondary Enemy. But for now I lean towards A as the most likely of outcomes.

[@Idk-fk4mq]

@@EpticityOG im aware that tormentors are just clones of nezarec but that could still open more possibilities for a new race like clones of older dead disciples or maybe an ancient darkness wielding race that are cloned for the Witness to command. I also doubt that all the pyramids are just vessels, some are commanded by disciples. My theory is MAYBE there's a disciple as powerful as rhulk is and is the Witness's left hand man and commands his own race. For me that makes the most sense since nezarec is just another disciple since he has flaws and doesn't really agree with the witness's goals which includes removing pain since its a weakness. So surely the witness has another rhulk-esque disciple out there commanding the 5th race.

[@Idk-fk4mq]

+ ii doubt they'll use xivu as a setup like calus in LF and might save her for another expansion post final shape

[@donik4551]

Nezarec is the first Deciple Before the Golden Age begins, then came rhulk and at the end Calus,

[@ThePhoenix329]

Rhulk was the first disciple, as he was described making Nezarec into a disciple. So, no, Rhulk is the very first known disciple. Not Nezarec. Also, Rhulk was around millions of years before the Golden Age and millions of years before Nezarec was made a disciple.

[@bobertastic6541]

bro I just realized why didnt nimbus fly and grab ur ghost wtf

[@bobertastic6541]

but sooner I mean

[@GravitonLance]

Why didn't we do that, you're telling me that the strongest guardian, a literal god killer who can trow black holes, can't fly but Ikora can?

[@aruzhel5230]

​@@GravitonLance Why didn't our guardian just fucking use the grapple that we got from strand?

and savathun tricked them all

[@Hedron1027]

Rhulk is so fucking badass dude.

[@mcfry8365]

anyone gonna mention that "mara sov's sweaty feet" helped kill nezarec?

[@Apogenezis]

YOU FORGOT Savathun (She is a former Disciple)

[@mr_void4450]

i feel like this one was the hardest besides calvus for multiple reason personally i think HP and attacks are way better with Rhulk vs nezarec

[@XLetsDoWork]

there are also disciples in the We Stand Unbroken quest line, missed a spot

[@dotblader4721]

which disciples?

[@writer4000]

Has anyone ever notices that eramis outfit kind of looks like rhulks

[@raizzorking9912]

Mama says Calus is so angry because has so much plaque on his teeth.

[@CrunchBar-qe5fw]

After Nezarec, Rhulk sounds like a wimp, tbh.

[@Kinetic_Silver]

Savathun was a disciple too before she left

[@ThePhoenix329]

No, she wasn’t. She was going to become one, but rejected Rhulk and The Witness before she could fully become one.

[@NighttimeGlobe1887]

I wonder how many Disciples are left I wanna bet there are 3 left because at the end of Lightfall only 3 Pyramids went in with the Witness. I wonder if Final Shape it will one of those long campaigns seeking out The Witness's Disciples then defeating The Witness

[@smeeblo9846]

all of the pyramids surrounding it went in, and there were 8 of them, the ones that made the formation around the traveler resembling sagira.

[@geoffreyburr5378]

Where'd you get that minigun?

[@jackgrove4621]

disciple: unstoppable world conquering beast with powers beyond comprehension. Also disciples: Gets bodied by a few night lights. Are we sure we are not the raid bosses?

0:01 rhulk 3:14 Calus 7:00 nezarec

Clovis Bray could have been the sol system's disciple

[@dacedave4161]

I wish they didn't just unalive off Calus. He was honestly one of the best characters in the game. Really good voice acting too! Such a shame :(

Only thing I dont like is outside of Calus the rest were an after thought outside of a Raid and lore pieces hidden in items.

[@truv_]

why does the witness keep letting us 1v6 or 1v3 their disciples. like sure after nez they have learned their lesson LOL

[@magikcarpet1360]

Does anyone else think that Xivu Arath either already is or will be a disciple?

[@dotblader4721]

it's quite probable

[@HasvenWorld]

Rhulk: Composure Nezarec: Unhinged madness Calus: Avarice and Pride

[@lesliesmith6718]

I think there was also some pride in there with Rhulk

[@sozzyfox3541]

Eramis:Revenge (possibly? idk)

[@HasvenWorld]

@@sozzyfox3541 For me Eramis just seems lost. Though this weeks message between her and Misraaks seems like she's made peace with her decision, or at least took another huge huff of copium that'll probably wear off again

[@EJAXK13]

And Xivu Arath?

[@thegamingfiend5443]

​@HasvenWorld i don't think eramis will become a disciple she has failed to much and is not powerful enough to become and the witness punished her by turning her house into wrath born scorn or taken
