Edit: Added Randal
All those saying Ghaul is strong and not weak, the traveller fears Oryx and the Hive and others aligned to the darkness. Ghaul wasn't even that. And besides if we hadn't killed him the traveler would have just blown him up anyway.
So what, he got to the traveler and for a brief moment starved us of our light, but let's face it.....
Atheon - Time travelling manipulator of reality
Crota - Son of a Hive God, invincible but for his sword, slaughtered hundreds of guardians. Thousands of years old
Oryx - A God personally gifted power by the Deep. Can only be killed in his own realm. Can take the Will of enemies to fight for him
Aksis - Bio enginered overlord of death and destruction. Can self replicate and change others
Calus - Has a massive planet eating ship. True leader of the Cabal has thousands of other versions of himself.
Skolas - Meanest mofo the galaxy has ever seen. Even the Nine are afraid of him. (Actually hardest boss in Destiny pre nerf).
Ghaul - Pissed off space turtle with a grudge against humanity, has a an army.
Randal the Vandal - Eats gjallarhorns for breakfast and craps over all who dares kill his pet shank.
It's not Canon I know, but really our enemies need to be a bit more threatening.

Comparing a campaign boss to raid bosses. Wow... downvoted.
-
Well, to equalize things, we have to compare the main content bosses, not the raid ones. Primeval/Imminent/Eschatological Minds: Pretty tough. Crystallized Soul of Crota: Easy Skolas (capture): Easy Oryx, initial: Tough Remnants of Iron Lords: Easy Ghaul: Fairly easy.

Edited by easymoney725: 11/3/2017 12:22:43 AMI wish they would have let us fight him in his Stay-Pufft form.

10 RepliesHe might be the weakest but probably one of the smartest so far. Look at how much he accomplished!! He destroyed the tower, stole the light, GAVE THE LIGHT TO HIMSELF, and took over the last city in ONE NIGHT!!
-
There are so many lore discrepancies and false assumptions in this that I'm cringing.
-
Shouldn't you be comparing Calus to the raid bosses instead? Or maybe compare Ghaul to the story bosses. Such as....Statues brought to life by Vex Heart, I.E. Big minotaurs that accomplished nothing except sucking and dying. Or, Skolas...Escaped from prison (?) only to run amok with a little vex tech and then go back to prison. Oryx pre-raid...Actually did some shit. Siva/Iron Lords...Did some shit in the past, came back and make fallen a little more annoying, got rekt.

1 ReplyGive him some credit. He was able to militarily dominate the Last Safe city, when some many other races couldn’t. The fallen tried twice, and still failed. House of wolves failed too. And the Devil Splicers we’re stopped before they could even get to the city. The vex don’t seem to care. They are more interested with terraforming entire planets to try and fit into their grand scheme. The hive would’ve destroyed the city of it wasn’t for Eris. She was crucial in stopping Crota, Oryx, and any other hive threats. The cabal? We didn’t even know they were coming. Especially in such large numbers. Extremely aggressive, cut us off from the Traveler, and started picking us off. Ghaul may have been the weakest on his own, but the Red Legion as a whole was the most powerful military we’ve seen.
-
Keep in mind, atheon can't leave the vault, we banished crota to his thrown world, so he couldn't really do anything, we killed Oryx not once, but twice, and the same is true for skolas. Ghaul is the only one to ever successfully break us.
-
The nine aren't scared of skolas, they released him becauee they didn't want him. They wanted uldren, skolas couldn't even touch Xur, Xur would rekt him like no tomorrow. The nine gave skolas a ketch and weapons. They simply used skolas as a tool.
-
You just compared a story boss to a bunch of raid bosses and skolas.
-
3 RepliesThat's because the game is a casual hollow shell of its former self. The campaign boss had to be the same. Ghaul was the weakest boss fight in video game history.
-
6 RepliesAtheon could beat Crota's ass. Just saying.
-
Yeah he is a wimp. Went down way too Easy.

2 RepliesEdited by THA_3rd_GUY: 11/2/2017 7:24:06 PMGive him credit though, he's the only one to actually do something about the Tower. Atheon didn't want to leave his home, Skolas was too busy uniting the Fallen Houses, Oryx just parked his Death Star around Saturn, Aksis just told his crew to ignore the Tower and pillage everything else, and Calus used his giant ship to destroy a Centaur that might not even be in our solar system. And we don't know what Crota would have done because Eris wanted us to stop Crota from coming through the Ascendant Realm, because if he did, we would have actually finished the Dark Below with an epic fight.

4 RepliesEdited by khkrazotic: 11/2/2017 7:22:22 PMYou are basically comparing end game bosses to a campaign boss. Obviously Ghaul would be the easiest to beat. Compare him to the black garden, Crota crystal?, skolas prior to going into prison of elders, oryx prior to throne room, and the diva replication chamber and you might change your mind about who is easiest.

Ghaul suppressed our light and took it for himself and Destroyed the tower. He's achieved more than any other villain. He wasn't the head of the snake either. He was just the leader of an impossibly disciplined army. It could go on without him. Unlike the taken, where oryx was the absolute centre. Without him they diminished. Atheon only had power in the vault. It was his version of a throne world. Crota seemed to get an epic backstory, but hardly some guardian army killing god even in his own throne world.

maegatron:3 - old
I can agree he is the weakest, but the only one to actually steal our light and take over the last city even if temporarily. Then again, had the self proclaimed Kell of Kells escapes us after stealing the vex tech, the city could’ve easily fallen to them. Oryx: Can basically Control other enemies. Memory of Timur on Steroids. Powers of the darkness itself. Also Ascendant Realm Self could’ve stepped on the city and destroyed it them self (If he could). Atheon: Sadly I don’t see how our attack on the VoG was related to the story at all. But it was a fun raid. But couldn’t The Templar be the strongest enemy ever in theory? They were invincible to everything until Kabr sacrifices himself, eternally piercing the. Auto with Light creating the Aegis (I believe that’s correct) which allows us to attack and kill the Templar. -
With everything that is missing from Destiny 1 in this game, it seems he did do more than simply take the light from us for a little while.

It’s all still canon...
