Another interesting thing is the link they have to exos. On Io, you can find a scannable which your ghost says is a device for interlink between the vex and exos, then he tells you to be safe and not touch it (but where's the fun in that?). There might be one other place mentioning exos and vex, but I can't remember. The fact that both of them are machines puts some type of connection with them that the vex try to use. The area where this scannable is found is also near an objective during a side mission where the vex are hypnotized by Rasputin's music (which is a whole other story regarding the way that mission ends). So they even also have some connection to warminds which they are powerless against, or the warmind forced connections to them, which he also does to ghost.

  • There's a scannable on Nessus that straight up tells you the vex and exo are connected.

    Not directly. A) One says someone's been tampering with a vex node to allow Exo's access to the Vex network. B) Add another one where the Ghost suggests that the Vex and Exos are connected depending on which species you play as. Though one of them suggests it's the result of Cayde's tampering. I guess kind of like his Hive-magic-infused atichoke A) [b]Human [/b]Transcript. (as seen in the picture) Ghost: "I'm reading encryption here. Someone's been tampering with this access point to allow Exos to interface with the Vex Network." [b]Exo [/b]Transcript. (seen in this video) Ghost: "Don't ouch that thing! It looks like this access point has been modified to allow Exos to interface with the Vex Network. Let's just. Leave it alone, for now." B) [b]Human [/b]Transcript (as seen in picture). Ghost: "This Conflux is specifically attuned to Exo programming. But why would the Vex have access to... oh. It must be Cayde." [b]Exo [/b]Transcript (seen in this video). Ghost: "Aah! I think this Conflux reacted to your Exo body... and then it burned out. Is there some connection between Exos and Vex? That can't be."

    Personally I think the Vex and the Exo are very well connected. I think the Ishtar Collective made the Exo from examining the Vex. In D1 they had a trove of data about the Vex, I wouldn't be at all surprised if they found a way to repurpsoe human life force into machine bodies. Cayde's old letters suggest heavily that you become an Exo and that they aren't built. Maybe Vex are what you get when you apply a silicon based life form to machine form and exo's are what you get when you do the same to a carbon based life form. The two people we've seen operate Vex tech the most are The Stranger by her teleportation and Cayde, both are exo. There is a very clear connection.

  • I think it’s possible they are connected I’m just clarifying that posters statement. He made it sound like it was confirmed. When it was at best a theory within the game itself

  • Oh, I wasn't discrediting you or anything I was adding onto the information dump.
