How many do we have to kill?

So it just crossed my mind, we killed Atheon a raid boss who was worshipped as a god by the vex. We also killed crota the son of Oryx who is considered the hive's god which makes crota a god(if he's a pure breed). Then now we kill Oryx the god of the taken and the hive. So my question is how many "gods" do we have to kill before the end of the game? We now the next dlc: Forge of Gods is about the return of the cabal but is there a cabal god or something along those lines we have to kill? Also the dlc is most likely about vex, so will there also be another vex god like atheno we have to kill? So how many do you think we have to kill guardians? Just this up while looking through the forums. [b][i]Note[/i][/b]: I didn't add skolas because he isn't considered a god but more on the lines as a evil tribe leader than a actually god. [b][i]Edit[/i][/b]: okay servitors are considered gods to the fallen only because the servitors communicate with the darkness but they still aren't raid bosses. Maybe they may get raid but that wouldn't be a for awhile. Also Atheon isn't considered a god but he went against his "god"(black heart) and so he was basically trapped in the VoG but he also had some followers that followed him(not talking about the Templar or the gorgons). [b][i]Edit[/i][/b]: guess this post hit 100 replies... I guess that's awesome, really glad to see people actually interested in the lore of the game and are willing to discuss this topic like civilized humans(not like the rest of the forum). Yeah so thanks and keep giving your point of view on this topic.

  • Think about it this way. How many gods does humanity have? Kill the greek gods and the romans make more, kill those and the catholics make more, kill those and science becomes it's own. Kill all the gods you want, the hive will always have another god. The Al'Akhul strike talks about him wanting to dethrone Oryx, so there is already a succession mechanic in place for the hive, biggest baddie rules. The Fallen don't deal well with loss, hence their scavenger, disorganized nature, but I'd expect an organized house to come in from out of the system at some point and show us what they can really do. The Vex don't have gods or identity, only function, so they will find a way to repair the loss of Atheon (like they tried with the Nexus mind) via the time stream or they will adapt around the loss. Who knows, maybe they allow this timeline to persist because they needed Atheon destroyed... The Cabal are militaristic. They will always establish a hierarchy. The main command will promote new leaders. If we ever kill the absolute top of the cabal command they would eventually establish a new order. So there should always be enemies to fight, we will cripple the minions of the darkness, but it will be a very long time before we "win".
