On arrival, Zavala notes how the Splicers are experimenting on nearby [[Hive]] and asks the Guardians to end this quickly before another SIVA outbreak occurs. As they approach the Dusk Warrens, Taniks encounters them near the lift to his Ketch but is forced to retreat. Zavala is shocked that Taniks can talk since they believed the Splicers were only reanimating his body with SIVA. Ikora comments how Taniks may be more machine than Fallen and perhaps he was never alive to begin with. With his Ketch still intact, a jamming field disrupts the Vanguard communications.

Line 175:

Having deactivated the nuclear protocol merely moments before orbital re-entry, the Guardians quickly retreated to shelter in the lower deck of the station. Taniks mercilessly pursues them while firing his Molten Welder only to be locked out of the blast doors seconds before collusion. He seemingly perished when the station into Europa, but was found to have survived the impact.

He re-emerges from the debris as '''Taniks, the Abomination'''; his lower body having been merged with a [[Heavy Shank]] ~~powered~~ by the station's nuclear cores. Facing the Guardians once more, Taniks goes on the offensive with his newfound abilities such as [[Void]]-powered Turbulent Barrages and Detain bubbles, as well as the annihilating force of his Turbulent Detonation. The fireteam staggers the abominable Taniks long enough for them to collect and disarm his cores piece by piece to prevent his nuclear-fueled powers to wipe them in an instant, leading him to create a defensive Shock Field to force the Guardians to enter it to deal damage against him. As the Guardians begin to take down the Mercenary, Taniks teleports around the [[Restricted]] crash site to evade the shots, however, he would finally fall to the fireteam, seemingly ending him for good.
