The desperation of modern Fallen Houses can be seen in the state they keep their Servitors, as the [[House of Dusk]] and [[House of Salvation]] have reduced the amount of plating dedicated to their protection, leaving more of the Servitor's circuitry exposed. In the case of Salvation, this is intentional, degrading their appearance as a manifestation of their House's hatred for the Great Machine.

Servitors possess extremely sophisticated and valuable technology, such as Servitor plugs, filters and Ether circulators, to the extent that their artificial intelligence gives them a limited degree of sentience. Despite this, they are vulnerable to being overloaded and shorting out. Not only do they generate Ether, they also can extract or store it, until they are drained of it. The communication network that a Servitor is connected to can be accessed by a [[Ghost]], through which those connected to the network become locatable.

There are more powerful Servitors known as [[High Servitor]]s, capable of jamming signals. Above High Servitors are [[Prime Servitor]]s, the largest known form of Servitor. Prime Servitors are potentially integral to Fallen space travel, offer logistical support, and the Fallen worship and revere them as if they were gods, presumably given their symbolic relevance to Great Machine, as well as the fact that they produce major tons of Ether and are an integral part of the leadership of most Houses, alongside an [[Archon]] and a [[Kell]]. For these reasons, almost every Fallen House has their own Prime Servitor; if it is destroyed, the House becomes extremely vulnerable. Certain Servitors function as pilots, and are called [[Pilot Servitor]]s.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/5/19)''', ''Destiny, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Pilot_Servitor|Pilot Servitor]]''</ref>

Servitors' primary usage in combat is to support accompanying Fallen units by emitting a purple glow, giving them a nourishing boost.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiIVC8pBHpQ#t=37 '''YouTube''': ''Destiny Multi-Player PS4 Alpha Gameplay Frame-Rate Tests'']</ref> To evade incoming attacks and flank their targets, Servitors will occasionally teleport short distances. They are shown to be a resilient threat and are capable of firing powerful blasts of [[Void]] energy from their eye, which is also a weak spot. They frequently try to protect this weak spot when in combat, making them difficult targets. In ''[[Destiny 2]]'', Servitors have switched their nourishing boost with the ability to generate tethers toward nearby Fallen units, granting them complete immunity to incoming damage. They also gain [[Void]] shields in high difficulty activities.

Servitors encountered as [[Elite]]s or [[Major]]s have increased health and stronger damage resistance compared to [[Minor]] variants, but usually do not differ in looks. [[Ultra]] or larger Servitors gain a powerful melee attack, releasing a health draining vortex from their eye whenever a foe gets up close.
