Doubt we will get a faction of friendly vex but I think we could get harpy asher mir as an ally if Bungie ever remembers that plot point

  • Thing about the Vex is, if a Mind decides that the most logical course to ensure their survival is to ally with humanity, they'll do it. They've displayed the willingness to cooperate with Guardians during the Taken War, when all simulated futures that didn't involve cooperation resulted in their extinction. That being said, Vex can never be fully trusted, as things like loyalty and integrity are irrelevant to them. If they establish friendly relations with Guardians then calculate that betraying them would result in a more favourable outcome, they will pursue it. The only true way to remain allied with the Vex is through deterrence and favourable outcomes from maintaining the alliance.

    If I am right, the vex are a non sided faction, not in it for the light or dark, the only vex that is part of the dark is the sol kind, as even in lore the normal vex stay away from the sol type, the ones we find in the black garden and garden of salvation and now spire But there were vex who were not the enemy, when the taken attacked the vault of glass, or that friendly harpy we found on Nessus And the last time the vex was a threat and not taken over by the witness or the part of the sol, was panoplies back in curse of Osiris

  • I think if the Lucent Hive fall into line then mathematically one of the Vex factions would come to the conclusion that siding with us and the Traveler would be the best bet for their survival. Kind of like why the Sol Divisive started worshipping the Darkness.

  • We are also missing a taken representative I guess? The only person that could really fill that roll is toland. God I miss his dorky -blam!-

  • Unfortunately the Taken are stripped of their freewill. They are just a tool for the Darkness now. Pretty shitty fate.

  • Yeah that’s why I suggest toland, since he is a wee taken orb so he sorta counts. Any of the nine/drifter also kinda count since they have ties to the taken in slightly different ways I get what you mean with the vex potentially joining the light but I don’t think it lines up with the motivation of the vex in general. I think it’s why Bungie established people turning into vex maintain a portion of their free will, so they could have a vex ally that would make sense to be rebellious lore wise

  • I don't think Toland is Taken. His soul just survived the deathsong. He has all his freewill.
