Should we really be arming Rasputin? (Possible Trap)
Let’s discuss whether we should be bringing Rasputin to full power, especially since we were teased with Osiris questioning Rasputin. We don’t know when that cutscene takes place, whether it was during Season of the Dawn or after Season of the Worthy when it’s too late.
Osiris is clearly spooked and here we are bringing Rasputin back to full power with these bunker upgrades. I feel like it’s another situation where we’re being tricked just like we were in the Dreaming City.
And before anyone states we need his help to stop the Almighty, how do we know he didn’t plan it this way and manipulate the Cabal into sending it to Earth so we’d [i]HAVE[/i] to power him up to repel it. He’s a super powerful Golden Age A.I. that has the potential to run rampant like in the Halo universe
I just feel like we’re being set up for a betrayal and that we should let Rasputin be. Our hubris will be our downfall

Quite frankly. Osiris sort of sucks at predicting the future. Why? Because he’s using Vex tech, that can’t probabaly equate light into the predictions, hence why he’s been wrong about Penoptes, Saint-14 and most likely wrong about Rasputin IF he’s basing his aggression of some form of future he’s seen in the Infinite Forest. Rasputin’s directive is to protect humanity at all costs. And arming him would help that directive, but yes, there is a threat. Rasputin hasn’t always been right, and his capabilities as an AI only stretch so far. And while Rasputin’s had the entire dark age to study every enemy, including guardians (Felwinter theory), he also gets busted into several times. He doesn’t view guardians as part of humanity. So while we mightn’t have to be concerned about the last city, we may be concerned about his interests in defending guardians alongside humanity.
