'''Sylok, the Defiled''' is a [[Taken Knight]] that was captured and imprisoned within the [[Prison of Elders]]. Following his capture, [[Reef]] technicians made several attempts to examine his mental architecture but were repeatedly and unconsciously compelled by his powers into psychically torturing him without being made aware of the compulsion. Sylok both reveled in the pain and used it to feed his [[worm]].<ref>'''Bungie (2016/4/12)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[April Update]] - [[Grimoire:Enemies/The Taken|The Taken]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/The_Taken#Sylok.2C_the_Defiled|Sylok, the Defiled]]''</ref>

Sylok would survive his encounter with the Guardians and join forces with the [[The Dread|Dread]] several years later.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnR8tsI3oTw&t=1265 Destiny 2 - Revenant: Act II | Developer Livestream], '''Associate Activity Designer Noah Lee''': ''"The Taken are kinda taking the helm of the Dread right now. Not because, like, they're stronger or anything, but because Sylok is just more experienced with the Prison."''</ref> He would encounter the Guardians once again, who were seeking out [[Fikrul, the Fanatic]] within the now [[Tomb of Elders]].<ref>'''Bungie (2024/11/19)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Episode: Revenant]] - [[Tomb of Elders]]''</ref>

===Prison of Elders===
Sylok is just like any Taken [[Knight]] in that he is armed with a [[Void]] [[Boomer]] and can send out [[Solar]] projectiles that linger on the ground. However, in [[Challenge of the Elders]], Sylok's Burn ability becomes extremely dangerous. He will fire bigger clusters of those projectiles, and when they land on a surface, they will create a burning spot that will cover a much wider area of effect and last a lot longer, so expect to see flame spots all over the room.

===Tomb of Elders===
Sylok can be encountered as one of the possible final bosses of the Tomb of Elders activity where he bears Immunity Shield and will be assisted by reinforcements in the form of the Taken and the Dread. To dispel Sylok's Immunity Shield, the Guardian must gather six Resonances located across different areas of the room and dunk them into the rift located in the middle. When all the required Resonances are deposited, Sylok's shield will be dispelled and the Guardian can damage the Taken Knight for 1:26 until his shield eventually recharges. Following the restoration of Sylok's shield, the Guardian must repeat the same process to vanquish his shield permanently. Once Sylok is slain the encounter is complete and the fireteam can continue forward onto the next objective.
