First off, I'm new here. Could Crota have had the potential to be as powerful as Oryx? In one of the trailers for the Dark Below expansion, we see Crota holding a sword very similar to Oryx's Willbreaker as well as Crota channeling energy down his sword into the ground. Oryx does a very similar thing in the opening cinematic. Except Oryx uses his sword to activate the Dreadnaught's super weapon. Let's point out a few differences first: Crota's energy is green, Oryx's is blue+black Crota's has not been visibly weaponized, Oryx's has Since Crota is the spawn of Oryx, he's obviously not as powerful. But could he have become as powerful as Oryx with the proper training and guidance? Because if they can both put Hive energy into their swords than I think if we left Crota alone he could've become as strong as oryx. The one thing that debunks this is the Sword Logic. Crota would have to kill more, thus going to earth to fight us. But maybe that's the reason? He wanted to kill us so he could get more light so he could become as strong as his father and weaponize his darkness abilities more. Just a thought.
