Even in fireteams they can wipe you out instantly while you are overleveled. So you are minding your own business and run into taken thrall and acolytes. No big deal, kill acolytes before they spawn floating MGs right? Wrong, a taken knight has spawned out of your ass and is now spamming the flame shit at every position you stand in. So aim for the knight right?
Wrong because the taken vandals have spawned with the precision of a surgeon and are now placing bubbles as soon as you think about them to heal the enemy and 1080 no scoping you while he rides a fkn cow jumping over the fkn sun with both hands ties behind his back and disarming a fkn nuke strapped to his fkn dic and balls using only his bare teeth.
So kill the vandals? Wrong because now a taken captain has spawned about 20 meters away and is spamming orbs the size of Phobos to blind you as well as deal a chunk of damage no matter how far from the center you were.
So take out the captain? Wrong once more, taken planaxes have spawned and are playing tennis with your pathetic body.
So take out the Phlanaxes? Wrong again, there is an orb nearby spawning psions that are multiplying as we speak.
So take out the orb? WRONG A FUKINGAIN!!! The taken keep spawning even if you destroyed the orbs, oh and you might want to watch out next time for that taken cabal orb that tracks you to the end of the universe because it already killed you while you were worrying about every other ability spamming enemy.
Great concept of an enemy, poor execution. Tone down the ability spam and you'd have the perfect enemy in terms of balance.
Edit: Now that I'm cooled out, just understand that all Id like to see is a second or so added between their abilities, even half a second.
oh and thanks for reading to those who enjoyed the description of abilities.
EDIT 2: Wow...I'm not sure what to be impressed by, the fact that this hit trending, or the chunk of posts saying "git gud" (post fist edit) despite me saying I'd only like to see a VERY MINIMAL cooldown time nerf (min .5 sec 2 sec max).
Anyways, I'm having fun reading your thoughts on this and your experiance with the taken.
Edit 3: Not sure if troll or not, but I believe I received a couple or so of requests to change the word "retarded" due to it being deemed offensive. I've complied with the request as a show of good faith that I meant no harm in any way.

1 OdpowiedźIf you take the word out of the title but then just include it in the edit explaining that you took it out... Did you actually do anything?

I actually think the Taken are rather easy to beat and I play solo often. Hell I even clean out Champions. It's all in that Critical shot.

My Red Death says otherwise.

*peaceful little guardian walks into dreadnaught* "Oh what a beau-" *Taken spawn* *Screen pitch black, burning, 457 psions made, acolyte eye of doom, explosive orb dar-* "Guardian down..."

So you're complaining they are too hard? The first year was easy and now that we actually can be challenged people jump to cry on forums. It's quite funny. Any sort of enemy can be overwhelming giving a certain situation, with the taken you can't be standing out in the open and actually have to take cover while picking them. I think taken are the best enemy type and they did a good job on them. The only taken I despise are taken captains with that blinding crap lol.

At a Bungie meeting: "So, you know how Phalanxes can shoot you across the map with their shield?" "Yeah." "Let's make it so when they're in their Taken versions, they can do that from 50 feet away." "Great idea!"

Did not read but go back to neopets

I agree they spam their abilities too much. I also didn't like that skolas had unlimited ammo and fired every two seconds.
