Cyclops
 

The Cyclops is a huge, stationary Vex construct with a powerful Void weapon.

Overview

Cyclops' act as gun platforms: batteries installed to protect key points with devastating mortar fire. Evidence suggests that the Cyclops is in fact an enormous sensor or beacon, and that its weapons capabilities are secondary. What the Cyclops senses remains unknown, although its mind core is vast.[1]

When damaged, a Cyclops will enter a confused state, firing wildly and without focus. This can result in friendly fire on the part of the Cyclops.[2]

These units can be found in The Nexus and Echo Chamber Strikes; in the latter a group of three guards the final Arc-based barrier.[3]
