Chimeras generally possess variations of the same abilities Servitors use, such as an eye blast, melee and flight. They also have two new powers. The first launches a burst of three to four Axion Darts like [[Taken Centurion]]s, only the Darts are larger. The second has them spawn numerous miniature Taken [[Blight]]s, either a single one or up to four at a time, that shield the Chimera and makes them immune to damage until the Blights are destroyed.
Chimeras are massive targets that are always the focus of combat whenever they appear. Their main attack option consists in an amplified version of the Servitor Eye, a slow traveling explosive called Eversion that deals devastating [[Void]] damage. Their secondary attack consists in a swarm of Axion Dart-like projectiles called Seeker Burst. These seekers are much larger and more resilient that Axion Darts, are fired in groups of three or four, and deal considerable [[Kinetic]] damage with high knockback. Some Chimeras fire them freely, while others open their shells awaiting to be struck before unleashing their Seekers. To anyone foolish enough to move close to them, Chimeras can deliver a melee ground blast with high damage and knockback.


They do not possess the ability to teleport or buff nearby enemies like regular Servitors, with the exceptions of [[Inomina, Plague of the Well|Inomina]] in the [[Blind Well]] who can teleport, and the Ascendant Primeval Servitor in [[Gambit]] whose Blights can make other [[Primeval (Taken)|Primevals]] immune at the same time as itself.
Chimeras float around slowly, relying on the impenetrable thickness of most of their shell to protect them from damage. Their weak spot is their central eye-mouth, with the flesh around it taking reduced damage, and the rest of the body mitigating it even more. Being [[Ultra]] enemies, Chimeras can also summon hordes of combatants, usually other Taken, as support. In addition, they often have other defensive or offensive abilities, such as creating immunity Blights, or controlling pools of damaging liquid matter.
