She's definitely up there with Uldren and Oryx. Just a side-note; Yeah, Oryx was a really simple villain. His dialogue and motives were both cliché, but damn he set the stakes high for the expansion.

Subjective I suppose, but I feel the complete opposite, worst villain in the entire game imo. The fallen in general pose zero real threat at this point, with darkness powers or not. At this point they're virtually extinct. Oryx was menacing, ancient, and evil. He wiped out entire civilizations repeatedly, and we still destroyed him. Some ragtag leftover fallen got their hands on some ice powers and I'm supposed to be even slightly intimidated? The entire campaign every time Eramis spoke I just thought to myself, "did nobody tell this poor girl who she's messing with?"

No way. In fact, let me compose a list of villains who were better than Eramis. - Calus - Ghaul - Aksis + SIVA - Skolas - The Architects - The Forklift from SRL

Beyond light is forsaken on ice. Here’s the baddie, and their crew. Hunt them down one by one till you get to the final boss. Afterwards you can get quests that were part of the campaign from washed up fallen. Hella copy paste work done there. 3/10 not impressed

Meh. She bit in more than she could chew. I never felt threatened by her. Oryx and I guess riven were great. dreaming city was amazing

Yeah oryx had a better story mode end boss fight eramis you could just run up to her with a sword oryx would kill you if you tried that lol. Kinda think we didn't need the darkness to beat her though.

How come Ermais can speak English better then Variks

There are no good villains in Destiny, since none of them are properly fleshed out.

Eramis was at one point a eliksni driven to save her people... But the darkness corrupted her and she wants to save her species by whiping out us. As you saw by the story, not all fallen are loyal to her and would rather defect to Mithraxes house. Was she a good villain story wise? Yes. Will she ever compare to Oryx? -blam!- no. Oryx was a man on a mission, not for domination and not for the sake of it. We killed his son Crota, final death in his throne world. He was for the lack of a better word. PISSED When he got here he literally took everything because he could and refused to fight us as we were weak. We proved him wrong and fought him in combat in his throne. We killed him and Oryx in aast ditch effort TOOK himself. We then had to fight him in his accendant throne world aka inside the dreadnought. We killed his priest, we killed his spider ogre thingy and we killed his daughters. We then faced him and killed him finally. We devestated the hive so badly they wouldn't really recover on the dreadnought which in fact started to decay. That's why Eramis will never be close to Oryx.

All destiny villians lack substance and have since oryx. Oryx came seeking to avenge his son with an unheardof ability to transform the common enemies into his own allies, united them against us and giving them new abilities. We beat him in the story but killing him required us to get 6 people and embark on one of the most robust raids in destiny history to beat him at his full power in his throne world. It felt like we had accomplished something, like we had really won a war that had been going on for a long time. While rise of iron was a great dlc, there was no single antagonist to focus on. The story took us to the siva replication chamber where we beat reanimated iron lords and the raid took us to a random siva facility deep underground to take out a vanguard target. Great dlc and amazing raid but no reasoning behind any of it. D2 story and leviathan... seriously embarassing. Ghaul, conqueror of worlds, taker of light, defeated by one guardian in a 5ish hour campaign. And we still don't know what is going on with the random "enemy" calus and the leviathan... he is testing our strength and trying to eat planets but for what? Forsaken admittedly pretty good. Tracking down uldren to beat him, only to open a new book in the dreaming city which led us to riven so that we could break the curse in another awesome raid. Pretty cool although it sucks that defeating riven doesnt actually have an effect on the dreaming city. But still no main threatening antagonist. Shadowkeep story I don't even remember and the raid was cool but totally random. And now beyond light, with eramis, a random fallen splinter leader who appeared out of nowhere, again being defeated in the story by one person in a couple hours. We don't know about the raid yet but I can only imagine it will be related to her group in some way and not totally random (In the story she tells to one of her barons "go to the crypt... prepare the body") but I can't imagine she herself will be there. Oryx is like the Itachi of Destiny 2. A character that is too well written for its narrative.
