The Nightmare of Crota looks much different than his original appearance in [[Crota's End]], with a far more physical look with chitin and armor, instead of the ethereal and unique appearance he last appeared with. Along with that, his color scheme was changed from light green with some yellow hue on his horns, to a pure green armor with a dark green skin color underneath. Along with this, he is slimmer and slightly smaller compared to his original appearance, with his proportions being more in line with other Ultra rank | The Nightmare of Crota looks much different than his original appearance in [[Crota's End]], with a far more physical look with chitin and armor, instead of the ethereal and unique appearance he last appeared with.

Along with this, he is slimmer and slightly smaller compared to his original appearance, with his proportions being more in line with other [[Ultra]] rank [[Knight]]s. Crota's head also was slimmed down and the horns were adjusted upwards with added chin guards around his mouth, with his mouth proper looking more in line of most Hive. | ||

**The reason behind this would be due to the Nightmare appearing as Crota did during the Great Disaster, but the one as seen in his Throne World is weaker due to a matter concerning a dispute between a Knight of [[Oryx, the Taken King|Oryx]] and a Knight of [[Xivu Arath, God of War|Xivu Arath]].<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/11)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Weblore]]: [[Weblore#Dust|Dust]]''</ref> | **The reason behind this would be due to the Nightmare appearing as Crota did during the Great Disaster, but the one as seen in his [[Oversoul Throne|Throne World]] is weaker due to a matter concerning a dispute between a Knight of [[Oryx, the Taken King|Oryx]] and a Knight of [[Xivu Arath, God of War|Xivu Arath]].<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/11)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Weblore]]: [[Weblore#Dust|Dust]]''</ref> | ||
