Court of Oryx

The Court of Oryx is a player-activated public event in the Dreadnaught accessed through Patrol. It is located in the Hall of Souls and requires special Runes gained through fighting Taken to activate.

There are three tiers in the Court of Oryx challenge. Tier 1 is the easiest, and completion of three Tier 1 rounds charges the runes and allows them to activated Tier 2, and the same is true to access Tier 3.

The combatants of each round are randomized, and have powerful abilities but a distinct weakness. For example, a trio of Taken Wizards might spawn, and if a certain amount of time passes after one is killed, it is resurrected by the others. A boss's shield may only drop if all of its minions are killed; or a pair of bosses' shields only drop if they are in close proximity to each other (making the Nightstalker Hunter's Shadowshot super effective in this situation).

If the person who began the round is dead for too long, a timer will count down that will deactivate the event so as to prevent being AFK. Once the round is completed, the player who began the round will gain the most rewards.
