The '''Likeness of Oryx''' is a [[Taken]] entity encountered in Tier III of the [[The Reckoning|Reckoning]]. As its name suggests, it resembles a Taken version of [[Oryx, the Taken King]] (more specifically an [[Echo of Oryx]]) and exhibits similar attack and movement patterns.

==Gameplay==
The Likeness of Oryx's main means of attack is launching volleys of [[Void]] Darkness Blasts, and blasting foes that move close with a Rage of Oryx knockback attack. It usually flies around the arena at considerable speed, making itself a difficult target. Frequently, it will teleport over one of the hemispheres in the arena and charge a Counterfeit Gaze attack, a miniature version of Oryx's Doxology, which will merely deal enormous damage instead of wiping the team, unless the Likeness gets stunned. On top of that, the Likeness of Oryx constantly summons supporting Taken, notably [[Consumed Ogre]]s that can also inflict very high damage.

*The Likeness of Oryx is one of few Taken enemies that does not appear to have originated as a non-Taken; other examples include the [[Likeness of Nokris]] and [[Shadow Thrall]]s.
