Lightfall/The Final Shape is a far way off right? Well, what would you ideally want in the final race to be presented if you could fight them tomorrow?
My list for these beings would be simple:
Mysterious
Polar opposite to light guardians
Mysterious. I want them to be filled with surprise after surprise that makes me change how I have fought any other enemy. Like the Taken for the first time (replicating psions was a brilliant move honestly).
Polar opposite to light guardians. I want them to have a weapon or ability to suppress light-based capabilities which is why we have lost against them for so long or lore implications for destroying their items of interest (like a destabilization effect which makes them more primal or stronger or both- think brutes from Halo when enraged).
What would your list include?

Edited by MC 077 Lasombra: 11/11/2021 5:41:43 AMIt won’t be a race. The Final Shape is what still survives when everything else is dead. That’s why it’s called The [i]Final[/i] Shape. A race that exists now, when there are still plenty of species kicking, can not be called the Final Shape according to Sword Logic. It’ll be the Winnower. It’s the final dlc, so it can’t be a minion. That’s why the Taken versions are considered to the final form for species that get Took. Being Taken is basically the Winnower/its power possessing you. So they are perfected by the grace of the Winnower. The Winnower thinks whatever the Final Shape will be will come from it’s ideal. Which it’s hoping will be itself. Make zero mistake. The Sword Logic demands everything fight until only one is left standing. Which means whatever minions it has are meant to be killed. By us, it or someone else. So since the Final Shape is the end of the Dark and Light Saga, we have to finish off the big baddie. This happens on Io (shown in the base D2 ending) and I’m betting it’ll follow Ulan-Tans theory. Why else Io, where they added the Ulan-Tan cave. All the other theories were dropped in game. I called it years ago and will stick with it. The Gardner is already dead, so why not take the Winnower with it out of the cosmos. That’s why the first scene in D2’s ending, before the final showdown, shows the Dark and Light alone together.
