Panoptes, the Infinite Mind - Story Battle[edit]

  • When the battle starts, there is nothing you can do to hurt Panoptes, the Infinite Mind.
  • Instead, focus in on the Goblins who are in the lower area.
  • After clearing a few of them, change to the sides and deal with the Hobgoblins there, attempting to snipe you.
  • Panoptes will bring in more Vex that you will need to defeat to continue forward.
  • Before the next part of the arena opens up, you will see a Minotaur be brought in, this is Achronos, Infinite Proxy.
  • Destroy this Minotaur to trigger the next phase of the fight.


  • The mound at the fair end, where Panoptes was, will activate as a launcher.
  • Run onto it to be sent flying over to the next platform.
  • This first platform will have you fight against some Fallen.
  • You will encounter some Vandal and some Dregs.
  • Defeat them then go to the launcher to get to the second platform.
  • When you land there, expect to encounter some Cabal: 2 Psions and a Legionary.
  • Once again, defeat them and go to the launcher to continue forward.
  • The third platform will see Panoptes summon 3 Acolytes and some Thralls to attack you.
  • Once again Panoptes will vanish, activating the Vex launcher to allow you to chase it.
  • This will bring you to the arena where you will be able, eventually, fight Panoptes.


  • This battle begins with Panoptes summoning in a few waves of enemies for you to fight.
  • The first is of Fallen, where you are confronted by Dregs, Shanks,
  • Getting through most of that wave will have Panoptes summon in more Vandals, Dregss
  • Finally, you will be confronted by Taldriks, Infinite Proxy.
  • Defeating Taldriks will cause Panoptes, the Infinite Mind start deleting you from the Infinite Forest.
  • Before it can succeed against your Ghost's efforts to save you, Osiris will appear and confront the Vex construct.
  • This is the prelude to the damage phase, Osiris will cause a Vex Gate Launcher to appear while Panoptes works to crash the simulation you are in, inflicting the Unstable Simulation status on your Guardian.
  • Rush to the Launcher and get thrown onto the platforms above the arena you are in.
  • On this platform you will want to run forward and grab the Arc Charge that the Reflection of Osiris directs you to.
  • The Reflection will then create a bridge for you to run across and slam the charge into an opening to break down the body of Panoptes.
  • Osiris will then teleport the Guardian to a location where they can get a very clear shot at the weak point of Panoptes, giving you the bonus status Eye of Panoptes.
  • Unlock on the Vex Construct at this point, using your Power Weaponry.
  • You can damage it approximately to 50% health before it will blast you away.
  • You will land in the arena below you.
  • This time Panoptes will summon in Hive to kill you.
  • Fight through the initial Acolytes and Thralls.
  • Getting through them will have Panoptes summon in more Thrall but also 2 Wizards, and Ergoth, Infinite Proxy
  • Destroying the Proxy will kill all remaining Hive and Panoptes will attempt to delete the Guardian again. Osiris will once again intervene.
  • Use the Gate to get onto the high platform.
  • On it, run toward the Reflection of Osiris and grab the Arc Charge it makes appear.
  • Once you slam the charge, take a moment to reload all your weapons as you are teleported to where you can damage Panoptes.
  • After enough damage is done, you are thrown back into the arena once again.


  • This is the last round in the arena and Panoptes, Infinite Mind summons in Cabal to come against you.
  • The initial wave has a number of Psions scattered throughout the area.
  • Heading toward the back where Panoptes was, will trigger a number of War Beasts being released and coming after you.
  • You can either fight them or just run toward the Reflections of Osiris to get launched toward the very back of the arena.


  • When you land, immediately a large number Fanatics will come charging at you.
  • Aim for ones more toward the middle to ensure you get the most of the Vex when any one explodes.
  • Just behind them, on either side of the walkway in front of you, are Axis Goblins.
  • Defeat them and move toward the middle of this walkway.
  • You will find another set of Fanatics to deal with in addition to Harpies.
  • More Fanatics, Harpies and Goblins await as you get closer to Panoptes.
  • In the back, in addition to the Axis Goblins, you will find Alecto, Infinity Proxy.
  • Take on this Hydra carefully, using the nearby cover to avoid its barrage of shots as needed. And remember that it explodes a short while after death.
  • When you reach the end of the walkway you are on, Osiris will come flying in to deal with the Vex Mind and its attempt to rewrite the reality around it.
  • Rush onto the stairs when they appear in front of you.
  • Grab the Arc Charge at the top of them.
  • Run forward along the walkway that the Reflections of Osiris create.
  • Slam the Arc Charge into the rift in front of you.
  • One last time, you are teleported in front of the Eye of Panoptes itself.
  • Unleash your most powerful shots on the eye itself.
  • The Vex mind will explode when its health is drained, this will start the closing cinematic for the story campaign.
