OK so remember that super-fun boss battle where you destroyed the black heart of the black garden in vanilla? Me neither, but I found a huge plot hole in that section. If the vex wanted to protect it so much, then why didn't they prepare for the guardian to arrive since they know of their power? Let me explain. The vex are controlled by one huge, shared mind right? Then why didn't the heart just bring all the 3 statues to life and brought like 20 ultra minotaurs and 3 legions of harpies to defend itself against the guardian's attacks? Since they are all shared by one mind, wouldn't the attacked vex just before the heart room have communicated with the other vex by their shared mind tactics to warn them to not underestimate the guardian? Plus, when the guardian arrived, the vex seemed suprised to see one and slowly turned around one by one because they felt it or something. I don't know but any theories guys?

Well that's the thing the vex may be doing whatever they did in the first games story as a sort of everything has a fate type of thing. They lead us to a victory lower our guard of the vex being taken care of and retaliate in larger numbers.
