In the [[Rise of Iron]] expansion, Sepiks returns as '''Sepiks Perfected''' enhanced by [[SIVA]] technology by the [[Devil Splicers]]. It serves as the main boss of remastered version of the Devils Lair strike.

The majority of the Devils took residence near an old colony ship, named the [[Devil's Spire]], and established [[The Devils' Lair]] as a mecca for the zealous worshippers to offer tribute to their machine god in the form of skulls from dead [[Guardian]]s.<ref name="Riksis"/><ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/ghost-scan-devils-bones Ceremonial Ritual]''</ref> Like many other [[Servitor]]s, Sepiks Prime was born in the image of the [[Traveler]] and the Devils went to great lengths to protect their main source of life sustaining [[Ether]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen Leadership#Sepiks Prime|Sepiks Prime]]''</ref><ref>'''Gameinformer (2018/7/5)''', [https://www.gameinformer.com/2018/07/05/these-are-the-eight-barons-who-helped-kill-cayde-6-in-destiny-2-forsaken The Eight Barons who killed Cayde-6]</ref> The Prime Servitor also spawned its own line of Sepiks High Servitors, most notably [[Sepiks-23]].

For years the whereabouts of Sepiks remained elusive, but rumors hinted its presence within the [[Cosmodrome]]. The Devils dominance was uncontested for centuries until a newly risen [[Guardian]] slew their [[Archon]], Riksis. This was celebrated as the first major victory against the Devils since [[Battle of Twilight Gap]] and Sepiks would become vulnerable, causing the Devils to heightened their security for Sepiks.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Restoration]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire:Activities/Story: Earth, Old Russia#Restoration|Grimoire Restoration]]''</ref> Rallying their Fallen nobility such as [[Naksis, Devil Baron]] and deployed a [[Devil Walker]] to deter anyone from attacking Sepiks.  

As they entered into the lair, the team would discover Sepiks being protected by a personal immunity shield along with its worshippers within its domain, after taking out the Fallen within the site, the Prime would deactivate its shield to personally attack the Fireteam, resulting a battle between the Guardians and Sepiks. During the fight, Sepiks would continuously blasts them with its Servitor Eye and summoned more reinforcements to help it fend off the Guardians, as well as teleports around the lair to evade gunfire. But despite its tactical abilities, Sepiks would be destroyed by the Guardians, which would cripple the Devils' leadership and ends the biggest threat to the [[Last City]].

Following the demise of the Devils' leadership, the outcast [[Devil Splicers]] would returned to reorganise their House and shifted massive resources to the [[Plaguelands]] after they discovered the [[Golden Age]] technology of [[SIVA]].<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://youtu.be/mcywb8QTl5I Rise of Iron Opening]''</ref> A disgraced Archon Priest by the name of [[Aksis, Archon Prime|Aksis]], ordered his group of bio-engineers to rebuild their old Prime and augment it with SIVA. The Splicers' leadership sought to use Sepiks's revival as a power play to recruit other Devils to join their movement by bringing SIVA offerings and gain complete influence over the House by controlling the flow of [[Ether]]. Sepiks was reborn and christened '''Sepiks Perfected'''.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Sepiks Perfected|Sepiks Perfected]]''</ref>

Sepiks is later found assaulting the Temple's entrance with SIVA enhanced blasts and protected by a SIVA immunity shield. After spotting the Guardians, it drops its shielding and teleports to engage them and summons the rest of the normal Devil reinforcements to defend it. The Guardians used the high ground against Sepiks and destroy the [[Servitor]], however, due to its regenerative abilities, Sepiks would restore itself and retreats back to the [[Cosmodrome]]. [[Shiro-4]] then detects multiple impacts to the Sector 17 section of the Cosmodrome wall and Saladin orders the Guardians to stop Sepiks from escaping as the Devils now know the location of SIVA.<ref name="Mountain"/>

A [[The Devils' Lair (strike)|Strike]] is coordinated by Shiro to the breach past their defences and destroy the resurrected Prime Servitor holed up in the Devils Lair. The Splicers employ a laser grid with added encryption and deploy [[Dresiks, Splicer Baron]] and [[Splicer Walker]] against the Guardians.

They then reach the lair and find Sepiks protected by a SIVA immunity shield which can only be dismantled by destroying the nearby [[SIVA Node]]s. Sepiks enters battle with Splicer reinforcements and blasts them with its upgraded SIVA Servitor Eye blasts. Throughout the battle, Sepiks teleports to generate different elemental Shields that require the use of [[Shock Cannon|Shock]], [[Scorch Cannon|Scorch]] and [[Null Cannon]] to disengage it. Despite its new tactical abilities, Sepiks was unable to fend off the assault and finally destroyed for good.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://youtu.be/Xrqy4xPbqt0 Sepiks Perfected Strike]''</ref>

Sepiks Prime is at first invulnerable but immobile; it will drop its shield and start attacking once all Fallen in the area have been killed. It then attacks in a manner similar to a normal [[Servitor]], firing Void Blasts periodically while teleporting to fixed positions around the area. It may prove to be a hard-to-reach target when at high elevations. If a [[Guardian]] is in close enough proximity, Sepiks will continuously wield a deadly health-draining ability called "Servitor Attack" until the Guardian is dead or moves out of range. Sepiks Prime's weak spot is its eye.<ref>'''Bungie (2014-6-12)''', ''Destiny: Alpha PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard.''</ref> Killing Sepiks is a [[Vanguard]] [[bounty]].<ref name = "Companion">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJsIY7RrVuY '''Youtube''': ''Destiny Companion App Walkthrough'']</ref>

Sepiks Prime returns in its original form in the revamped version of [[The Devils' Lair (Destiny 2)|The Devil's Lair]] [[Strike]] in ''[[Destiny 2]]''. It will once again start the fight after the Fallen it is nourishing are slain. Sepiks's tactics are not much different from before, keeping to the distance initally, firing Void blasts, and letting its considerably increased reinforcements do the heavy lifting. After it is near two thirds of its health, Sepiks Prime will teleport to the center of the arena and summon four [[Unyielding Servitor]]s, which will shield it from all harm. These servitors must be slain to continue the battle. Sepiks will repeat this tactic once more after it is close to a third of its helth remaining, and will then remain vulnerable until slain.
