==Gameplay==
==Gameplay==
Like any Taken Captain, Keksis is armed with an [[Arc]] [[Shrapnel Launcher]] and can both teleport erratically and rapidly hurl Darkness Bolts that blind Guardians. However, in [[Challenge of the Elders]], they will gain the ability to summon explosives that will temporarily suppress a Guardian's abilities if left unchecked. The explosive will be floating around in the middle of the arena, and players must stand in it and channel its [[Corrupted Light]] to avoid getting the "Suppressed" debuff.
==Trivia==
*Keksis is the only Taken in the entire game whose Grimoire card is conveyed in the first person.
*Unlike most Taken, Keksis doesn't have a glowing central eye. Their face remains pitch black.
*Keksis is one of the few bosses that doesn't have a slam ability should the player get close.
*The "many voices" mentioned in Keksis' Grimoire card might reference [[Riven]]'s influence after Oryx's death. If so, this would be the earliest reference to Riven in the Destiny series.
**The "many voices" Keksis refers to might also be a reference to [[The Witness]], whose influence is still very much present, even after the collapse. If this is the case, this would be the earliest reference to the Witness in the series.


==Appearance==
Like any Taken Captain, Keksis is armed with an [[Arc]] [[Shrapnel Launcher]] and can both teleport erratically and rapidly hurl Darkness Bolts that blind Guardians. However, in [[Challenge of the Elders]], he will gain the ability to summon explosives that will supress a Guardian's ability to use their Super, melee, and grenade attacks. The explosive will be floating around in the middle of the arena, and players must run through it to avoid getting the "Suppression" debuff. Otherwise, the bomb will go off and Guardian's Super, grenade, and melee charges will temporarily reverse, and they will also be unable to use their jumping abilites.
