Meeting dead end after dead end on the origins of the [[Headless One]]s, Glint would soon end his pursuit of learning the truth and origins of the mysterious assailants that have shown up time after time throughout the [[Festival of the Lost]] until [[Eido]] would come to him with a strange call for help from a [[Fallen]] caravan within the [[Forum:Transylvanian Wildlands|Transylvanian Wildlands]]. Following it, however, they soon discover that the former repentant [[House of Dusk]] pilgrims were turned into [[Scorn]], and are now under the command of a reorganized and far more powerful Headless One threat.

Unlike [[Raid]]s and [[Dungeon]]s, the Takedown lacks heavily mechanic based encounters, instead, relying on numerous enemies and the progression through them, save for the boss encounters, in a similar fashion to that of [[Strike]]s. For balancing, the difficulty of the Takedown will scale to the number of present players and the Fireteam Leader's power level and choice of modifiers. Most prominent of these features is the unforgiving checkpoint system, only offering three save spots: the beginning, after defeating Renfil and after defeating Cadavru for those who seek to collect the [[Forum:Grim Inheritance|Grim Inheritance]] [[Exotic]] [[Glaive]]. | Unlike [[Raid]]s and [[Dungeon]]s, the Takedown lacks heavily mechanic-based encounters, instead, relying on numerous enemies and the progression through them, save for the boss encounters, in a similar fashion to that of [[Strike]]s.
