'''Voice of Riven''' is a [[Taken]] [[Chimera]] which serves as a representative of [[Riven]], as well as the final boss of ''[[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]]'' story campaign.
'''Voice of Riven''' is a [[Taken]] [[Chimera]] that served the Taken [[Ahamkara]] [[Riven]]. It is the final boss of ''[[Forsaken]]'' story campaign and appears in the [[Nothing Left to Say]] mission, where it devours [[Uldren Sov]] after he unwittingly opens the way into the [[Dreaming City]].


==Overview==
==Gameplay==
The Voice of Riven appears to be a horrific amalgamation of Fallen Servitor components and living flesh. In place of the central "eye" of a Servitor is a gaping maw, lined with rows of fangs. The exterior of the creature is covered with numerous translucent tentacles reminiscent of the appearance of the Taken.
The Voice of Riven appears as the final encounter within the Watchtower and will immediately attack players from long range with its [[Void]] Eversion blasts. It is also capable of a secondary attack where it will send Seeker Bursts from the side chambers of its body. These black orb projectiles will follow players and need to be shot to prevent significant damage.


==Gameplay==
Occasionally, it will summon miniature [[Taken Blight]]s that provide a immunity shield from damage and need to be destroyed to remove the shielding. The Voice will also banish players to the [[Ascendant Plane]] as its health depletes. There players will have to fight waves of Taken reinforcements and defeat the Ascendant Plane Guard to re-engage the Voice of Riven by teleporting out of a rift.
The Voice of Riven has two main methods of attacking the player: it can fire [[Void]] Eversion blasts from its mouth and release Seeker Bursts from chambers on the side of its body. Both of these attacks can deal significant damage to [[Guardian]]s from long range. It is will also have large sections of the floor poisoned by Taken energy from its mere presence, and when faced up close, it will release a melee pulse that will knock the player back. Occasionally, it will summon miniature [[Taken Blight]]s which can shield itself from damage; these blights must be destroyed to remove the shielding. Whenever its health reaches a certain threshold, the Voice will begin to banish the player to the [[Ascendant Plane]], where they will fight waves of lesser Taken enemies until an [[Ascendant Plane Guard]] appears, which must be killed to re-engage. The Voice of Riven's weak spot is its mouth, as it takes the most damage whenever it is struck.
 
As the battle progresses, large sections of the floor will become poisoned by Taken energy that can damage players. The Chimera is also capable of unleashing a melee pulse attack if players  attempt to get close to it. The Voice of Riven is high durable and can be defeated by concentrating firepower to its mouth to deal critical damage.
