You know that one Minotaur?
That spawns at the entrance to Sekrion's Lair if a player stands there to long? It belongs to Vex subset that is not listed in the Grimoire and nor have I ever encountered another Vex belonging to it. The name of this faction is "Aphix Invasive". If an enemy kills you, it will show their faction/subset under their name. The subset is identified be a cluster of spikes on the head of the Minotaur.
*Edit: I honestly didn't think this would garner as much attention as it did. Thanks!
*Edit 2: #7 in Trending! Woot!
*Edit 3: Some Psion Operants belong to a group called the Sky Burners. Credit belongs to VanillaShark.
*Edit 4: Highest Rated! (Minotaur does its fistpump thing)

1 ReplyIts the same Vex from the Vault of Glass, if you get killed by a Harpie in the Templar room it says the same thing

Probably just the "spec ops" units. Infiltrate bases (public event) or taking out assassins (when you stay on the ledge and snipe)

Edited by Kal Seim: 3/4/2015 8:13:58 PMWort, sir! I found a journal from a dead Guardian, it talks about each race and their secretive hierarchies/spawns/programming/divisions, I'd suggest you read! [b][i]Entry 1 The Vanguard tasked me with another mission, asked me if I could take out a specific Vex Mind called Sekrion, I didn't deny them. Made it to the designated location, the place feels off, like the Vex have.. A secret.. Sekrion was difficult, a modified Hydra casing, increased defense against standard munitions, but the 'eye' was still unchanged, easy target, but that feeling from earlier was right, the Vex had more defenses than usual, namely a programming called the Aphix Invasive.. I've never heard of them before, nor have I ever seen them.. I'll look into them more.. Entry 2 These Aphix.. They're on Mars and Venus, there a lot more prioritized than most programmings, so they're important, but... Not even the Consensus knows of these Aphix, not even Ikora Ray... I feel like they're either hiding something from me, or they really don't know..[/i][/b] The Journal ends there, I found him in the Nexus next to a Minotaur casing, coming from the Aphix program. He held a weapon he called Plan C, it shares the looks of the Minotaur. What do we do sir?

16 RepliesEdited by Trooper8059: 2/27/2015 4:37:43 AMThis Minotaur must have sent himself back in time to save himself from dying at the hands of guardians before realizing that by doing this he ultimately kills himself, but cannot warn his future future self to not go back. Thus the endless loop of him spawning.

1 ReplyI don't pay attention to what they look like, I just kill the abominations.

1 ReplyThe Sky Burners are part of Valus's fleet, his crew pretty much, and the Aphix Invasive seems to be a prime defending force in the Vex units... It's a good question, where [i]is[/i] the Grimoire for them?

25 RepliesHe's a retired old Vex war veteran that lives there. Him coming after you when you stay on the ledge is the Vex equivalent of ''Get off my lawn!''.
-
Perhaps this faction will be brought up in the next Vex raid.
-
Nice user name.

Aphix Invasive are seen on one of the teleports in the Vault of Glass and occasionally near the Citadel on Venus. I did some digging. As far as I can tell, there's no grimoire card.

In the buried city during a kill the target event a Minotaur like that spawns I forget what it's called but it's reddish and has spikes on the head also during a "kill the target" patrol that takes you down to tharsis junction in the buried city you encounter an "Iso Minotaur" which is also red with spikes. Check it out sometime

Wait, dipshit is in a special faction? No wonder he's a dumbass

His head always made me think of the Plan C.

The Destiny strategy book. It details all the factions out. (Also, check on Destinypedia. It explains there as well.) Vex Ascension.
