Her House established a stronghold on [[Europa]] and they secretly rebuilt Taniks in the [[Deep Stone Crypt]], the secret birthplace of the [[Exo]]. Weeks after the defeat of Eramis, the [[Exo Stranger]] enlists a fireteam of Guardians to [[Deep Stone Crypt (raid)|secure]] the Crypt from her followers before they could unleash a new army of [[Darkness]]-powered Fallen. After bypassing the Crypt Security, the Crypt AI notes that [[Clarity Control]] was breached by a single unregistered Exo and a single life form of unknown biology and were detected by the Crypt laboratory. There [[Atraks-1, Fallen Exo]] reawakens Taniks, who is immediately enraged at the sight of the Guardians. He begins bashing at the laboratory glass to no avail, so he crawls up the glass and leaves the lab.

Following the destruction of Atraks-1, the Crypt AI initiates its nuclear descent protocol to confine both parties aboard the [[Morning Star]] platform and deorbit it in an attempt to destroy the Crypt. Taniks (now known as '''Taniks, Reborn''') is found hacking control of the Nuclear Contingency Chamber where they would commence a battle. As the station descents towards the Crypt, Taniks and the Fallen engages the Guardians as they attempt to deactivate the nuclear protocol threatening to destroy Europa.

Taniks himself would also fight the fireteam during the descent, to which he finds himself stun locked by a Braytech augment temporarily on more than one occasion.

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 collided onto the surface, but was found to have survived the impact near the [[[[Restricted|entrance]] of the Crypt.

He re-emerges as '''Taniks, the Abomination'''; having grafted his lower body onto a [[Heavy Shank]] built out of the station's debris and nuclear cores. Facing the Guardians once more, Taniks goes on the offensive with his newfound [[Void]] abilities as well as the annihilating force of his nuclear armaments. However, 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. Enraged, the mercenary creates a massive [[Arc]]-fueled barrier to protect himself in, forcing the Guardians to enter as he was now vulnerable to their attacks. In his last moments, Taniks teleports around the crash site as he prepares for a final attack to wipe the fireteam, but would finally perish instead as he dies in a fiery nuclear blast, ending him seemingly for good.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]], Playstation 4, [[Deep Stone Crypt (raid)|Deep Stone Crypt]]''</ref>
