- "You are a Vandal. You slip through life like a thief. Trying to hide from everything greater than you — lest you be reduced, again, to a dreg. You have been taken. […] You have no space to call your own. You deserve a place of safety. You deserve to be alone with yourself. There is a knife for you. It is shaped like [this place is mine]. Take up the knife. Make it your companion. Take your new shape."
- — Grimoire description
The Taken Vandal is a type of Taken Fallen.
Gameplay[edit]
Taken Vandals have gained the ability to summon a spherical shield similar to Ward of Dawn. This shield heals enemies inside and allows them to shoot out but not in. The shield only lasts a few seconds, but it is enough to disrupt one's flow of combat. Their weapons consist of either a Solar Wire Rifle or an Arc Shrapnel Launcher. Taken Vandals are unusually accurate with their Wire Rifles. Still, they are not very resilient, are less agile than their normal counterparts, especially if compared in Destiny 2, and have a more limited arsenal. Their shields can also be shot through using Anti-Barrier effects, and if they can be tricked into using them while the player is close, they can be used as temporary covers.
