Draksis is the Kell of the House of Winter. Draksis was a prime target for the Vanguards. After raiding jumpship reclamation convoys, Cayde-6 upped the bounty on him, alerting Guardians to look for the Kell.

Gameplay

Draksis is the primary target in the "Scourge of Winter" Story mission. Upon entering the throne room, he will rise from his throne and begin to engage the player. He is armed with a Shrapnel Launcher for ranged combat. Draksis can also teleport across the room to evade enemy fire. As with any Ultra, melee combat is ill-advised, because he will perform a ground pound that send the player flying into a wall, causing them to die of impact with a hard surface. He will be assisted by all of the usual Fallen except Servitors and the occasional team of Kell's Guard. Equipping a high blast radius rocket launcher with Tracking is recommended because it can reliably damage Draksis from long range, even when he teleports away from the rocket, and thus the player is more likely to land a direct hit, which will stagger him, allowing the player to freely damage him for a moment.

Trivia

• Despite being the Kell of the House of Winter, Draksis wears armor with House of Devils colors and iconography.
