Ikora Rey: "Far below the Ishtar Academy, the Vex have set something in motion, a world-eating machine transforming Venus into another link in their intergalactic chain. This Nexus must be stopped and the Mind that controls it, destroyed."

{Mission begins}

The Fireteam lands in Ishtar Commons. The fireteam enters N/Gen Branch, Ishtar Academy.

Ghost: "Picking up multiple Servitors."

The Fireteam is ambushed by Fallen. The Fallen High Servitors are destroyed.

Ghost: "Ok! The upper level's open."

The Fireteam heads for Ishtar Research Lab, Dig Site 4.

Ghost: "We're getting close. I'm detecting a massive surge from the dig site below us."

The Fireteam goes deeper into Dig Site 4. The Fireteam approaches the Vex stronghold.

The Fireteam attacks the surrounding Vex.

Ghost: "The Nexus! It's opening!"

Sekrion, Nexus Mind appears, and attacks the Fireteam, sending Major Vex reinforcements. Sekrion is destroyed.

Ghost: "Great work."

Ikora Rey: "One tendril of the Vex surge has been severed. But their presence here still grows in other dark places, far out of our reach. We must continue to understand their power and haunt the realms where they gather."

-It is highly recommended to bring a void weapon, as there are a large number of very aggressive Minotaurs in the later parts of the strike. Killing them quickly will be the key to staying alive.

+*[[Servitor]]
-Players begin in the [[Ishtar Commons]], with a group of [[Vex]] and [[Fallen]] fighting each other. These can be ignored; walk right past the two Hobgoblins further into the academy right into the [[N/GEN Branch]]. This area is the first [[Darkness Zone]]. The fireteam's objective is to kill three servitors, which are found in different areas in the room and guarded by multiple fallen. It is recommended to kill the fallen quickly if the servitors are still alive, as servitors will heal any nearby fallen. After all three are killed, players must climb up the staircase, where they will meet multiple vandals armed with swords.
+;[[Vex]] - [[Hezen Corrective]]
+*[[Goblin]]
-===Dig Site 4===
+*[[Hobgoblin]]
-The first [[Vex]] enemies will start to appear, with a handful of more Fallen. Enemy composition is fairly light until a large clearing with Vex ruins, where a few Hobgoblins and two Minotaurs can be found. proceed further into the ruins to enter the caves where The Nexus is found. A small swarm of Goblins will appear, but can be dispatched quickly enough.

-===The Nexus===
+;[[Taken]]
-'''Boss: Sekrion, Nexus Mind'''
+*[[Taken Vandal]]
+*[[Taken Goblin]]
+*[[Taken Minotaur]]
+*[[Taken Hobgoblin]]
-At the end of the caves is a large room with a very steep drop. Drop down (taking care to cushion your fall) and kill the many Minotaurs patrolling the room (it's recommended to engage only one at a time). Killing all the minotaurs will bring down Sekrion; it will hover in the center of the room with a shield rotating around it. Because its projectile attack is quite powerful, players need to find refuge around the outskirts of the room, where there's sufficient cover. Every so often vex reinforcements will teleport in; it's important to be aware of them, as they can include Minotaurs and easily kill any players already being harassed by Sekrion's attacks.
+===Boss===
+*[[Sekrion, Subverted Mind]] (Taken variant)
-Sekrion's weak point is it's yellow glowing eye, which is only exposed if its facing the player and its sheild isn't blocking it. This can be difficult for players as it requires both timing and willingness to be exposed to its fire. Coordinating good fire angles so that the head can be hit from other angles will help bring down Sekrion more quickly.

+During [[The Dawning]] update, the Nexus Strike was revamped with its [[Light]] level being increased and a Taken boss added.
