Panoptes was a really cool boss that had the misfortune of being in an underwhelming DLC. His design was awesome and intimidating, and the fight was very cool thematically. People often ask for "single player raids". Panoptes was a single player raid boss. Add one or two more mechanics and he'd fit in with any other raid boss.

I just never fully understood the dlc at all. And I’m a lore nerd. The infinite forest is it’s own simulation like system. How does what takes place inside affect the outside world so heavily? The only explanation I ever came up with is that with enough time Panoptes would have figured out a way to beat both the light and the darkness letting the vex win.
