'''Aksis, Archon Prime''' is the leader of the [[Devil Splicers]] and the latest claimant to the title of [[Archon]] of the [[House of Devils]].

Once a disgraced machine priest, Aksis returned to his broken House after the recent loss of its Archon and [[Prime Servitor]] and claimed the title of Archon for himself.<ref>'''Bungie (2016-9-20)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[Rise of Iron]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Quest Dialogue [[Metal and Flesh]]</ref> Aksis ordered the Devils and the Splicers to find and pillage every Golden Age research lab they could find for anything that could aid them in their fight against [[The City]]. Their efforts proved fruitful as they had found [[SIVA]], a dangerous nanotechnology from the [[Golden Age]], deep in the walled-off [[Plaguelands]].<ref>'''Bungie (2016-9-20)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[Rise of Iron]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/SIVA#SIVA|SIVA]]</ref> Aksis was among those who believed they could use SIVA to become the machines they worshiped, instead of just finding another god to worship.<ref>'''Bungie (2016-9-20)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[Rise of Iron]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/SIVA#Dormant_SIVA:_Fallen_3.5|Dormant SIVA: Fallen 3.5]]</ref> Within the SIVA server farm, Aksis modified himself with SIVA extensively in pursuit of godhood, to the point where he was more machine than [[Fallen]] and had lost all need for [[Ether]]. In his new "ascended" state, Aksis named himself Archon Prime and begun the mission to spread SIVA to the rest of the Fallen and destroy the [[Guardians]].<ref>'''Bungie (2016-9-20)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[Rise of Iron]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Aksis,_Archon_Prime|Aksis, Archon Prime]]</ref>  

He lurked in his [[Perfection Complex]] deep beneath the [[Cosmodrome]] while his Splicers gathered SIVA offerings for him as tribute. As of the [[SIVA Crisis]], he is the most powerful Fallen to have ever existed, until a fireteam of [[Guardian]]s assassinates him within his Perfection Complex.<ref>'''Bungie (2016-9-20)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[Rise of Iron]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Wrath of the Machine]]</ref>

 

Phase two has a completely different structure. Aksis' upper body will detach from the ceiling and connect with his lower body, which has multiple spider-like legs, thus revealing his true form. He will stay in the center of the room and hammer you with suppressive fire from afar using his SIVA cannon, which has two separate firing modes. The first firing mode is a single [[Solar]] bolt that generates a large SIVA Swarm upon detonation. These swarms greatly obscure the player's vision and rapidly eat away at their health. The second firing mode is a barrage of multiple projectiles that have a large blast radius. While Aksis is doing this, he will, again, remain fully immune to all attacks until three SIVA Charges are thrown at him, using the same strategy from phase one. Once this has happened, Aksis will teleport to another location, and one random Guardian will become "Empowered". The Guardian with this buff must run up to him and attack his vulnerable backside. This will momentarily stun him, thus beginning the damage phase. This damage phase will happen three times in a row before he teleports back to the center of the room to fill the room with a critical density of SIVA. Once this happens you must go to the back of the room where there will be four lit pillars. Your entire team must jump on the same pillar only due to the fact that when your team uses a pillar it will go dark and you cannot use it again. But if your entire team successfully gets to a pillar, you will survive the crisis and the phase will start again. Please note that when Aksis gets to about 5% health he will teleport to the center and he will start self-destruct mode in a last ditch effort to kill you. You need to shoot and kill him quickly before he wipes your team.

The Heroic Mode version of Aksis remains largely unchanged, but it can throw teams off guard if they aren't paying attention. For phase one, the major change is that in addition to killing [[Splicer]]s during the add phase, you also have to watch out for [[SIVA Turret]]s that appear on the ceiling. These turrets are capable of doing serious damage at a fast rate, but can be temporarily disabled for a moment before they reactivate, allowing the team to briefly avoid focusing on them. For phase two, the team needs to throw six [[SIVA Charge]]s instead of three to start the damage phase. This will take a bit longer because there will be two each of Shock Servitors, Scorch Servitors, and Null Servitors. These Servitors, just like in normal mode, can only be destroyed by a [[Shock Cannon]], [[Scorch Cannon]], and [[Null Cannon]] respectively.

When the Aksis Challenge is active, Guardians must supercharge their team during every stun part of the damage phase. In others words, an Empowered guardian who is not on a side where Aksis teleports to be stunned must dispense their buff into an active Servitor plate in the boss room, supercharging their team's supers. This has to be done before an Empowered guardian can stun Aksis to inflict damage to him. Supercharging has to be done during each of the 3 stun parts of every damage phase. Failure to do so will result in the challenge not registering, and the team must wipe in order to do it correctly.

 

*Aksis is labelled as a SIVA enemy and not a Fallen enemy. All [[Wrath of the Machine]] weapons, such as [[Outbreak Prime]], and any other weapons that has the perk of dealing extra damage to Fallen will not receive the damage bonus against Aksis.
