Why is the Last City even worried?

I mean they have a standing army more than a million strong. Each member of that army can wade into battle outnumbered 100:1 and still win. Not only that but they are IMMORTAL. Killing a guardian only pisses them off. No worries your city is protected by millions of immortal juggernauts. With magical powers to boot.

  • So perhaps someone has already set straight what I kinda saw as a misconception already... but if we're going to desperately eek out lore from the little drops of story we've gotten so far - the traveler is in a mother -blam!-ing coma. The Darkness is scary still, because we just haven't seen it. Stuff has been happening with Fallen, hive and cabal still being in our faces and and everything, but the influence of the Darkness is not present right now, hence "... That the Darkness would return one day." The guardians haven't encountered legit darkness juiced forces since the fall all the way back to the last city. For that matter there are dead ghosts to rescue, guardians totally die. Whether the reviving is a story canon concept or just the style of game play I don't think is as clear, but if your ghost dies, you die. Pretty sure this alluded to in the grimoire cards also. Anyone who paid legit better attention than me? Did I miss something? Straight up wrong about something? Overall though, we are basically space Sparta in terms of badassedness, I mean when the end raids come? 6 guardians will mow down an entire army, probably, if that's how that works.

    • During the golden age the entire solar system was populated, I'd say being down to one last city is grounds for worry!

    • Maybe Darkness guys are the "??" guys in the game or maybe they are the special event Reaver Captains. In either case, we're totally screwed.

      • Bungie has stated a lot of stuff involving the traveller and the darkness. A lot of will be consequences of choices we make or how we perform for special events and stuff. Also we haven't truly seen the darkness, it plays in background a lot, but I think it has it's own "pure" troops.

      • It feels like The traveler is either dying or losing its power so that is effecting the strength of the Guardians. It's hard to tell with the little lore we have gotten so far.

        • The speaker said that we were much stronger before the darkness arrived and he said we are much weaker then we where in the golden age. (or something to those words.) Now I have no idea how big the city is. I'm also not good at trying to measuring how big the city is. [b]If someone could help with that that would be great[/b]. I want to see how many people could fit in the city. Know I don't know how many guardians there are (story wise) in the game. We only see guardians in the tower and out side the city fighting on earth and other planets. We so far have not seen anything else from the city, except from a birds eye view. Point is we are weak right now. The main reason they have not attack the city (unless we know more) in full is because they are dealing with the guardians and other factions.

            • yea, and during the golden age, the army was probably billions strong, hell they even created kickass robots to fight (the exo) so why [i]wouldn't[/i] they be worried, the darkness is still out there,and it kicked our asses during our heyday, cause the traveler to have to sacrifices itself just to save one city,

                The hive seem to have an endless supply of enemies, and there are still 3 other enemy types. Not to mention the traveler is dormant or dead. So ghosts reviving dead people to be guardians are the only thing stopping the darkness is these guardians. Ghosts and guardians are not immortal. Did you do the moon mission?

                I still think the darkness is a metaphor for all [Sentient Races] in the galaxy having an all out war and killing all of each other.

                    The hive managed to dig up a relic called the Tsar Bomba from an ancient weapons storage facility. That would do some serious damage to the city. A fireball approx 3-4 miles in diameter with a shock wave that could level buildings 100 miles away. Fusion rifles have jack shit on that.

                      In the beginning there was nothing and that's how the darkness liked it and then the big bang happen ed and someone turned on the light. And that pissed off the darkness now it scours the galaxy hunting those who use the power of the light to extinguish it once and for all. But that's just my opinion there's no need to go spreading it around.
