  OKAY, I need to do a pinned clarifying comment here because I used some admittedly poor phrasing in one line of this video - When talking about the subset of Vex who split off from the collective and became independent, I said they weren&apos;t &quot;elaborated on.&quot; When I said &quot;elaborated on&quot; I meant that the plot didn&apos;t really GO anywhere, and we don&apos;t know much about the Tharsis Reformation or how/if they affect the story and world. I should have said that more clearly. We do know WHY they exist (at least generally) - it has to do with alterations to the Vex network made by the Conductor in the later years of the story. And as I said at the end, this video was so packed as it is I had to skim Conductor stuff for the sake of time, which is why I didn&apos;t go into it. That aside, the Tharsis Reformation specifically were in one expansion where they were, at most, tertiary characters that were rule of cool for sure. They&apos;re Vex who wear jackets and have a gambling addiction. They&apos;re fun, but not lore relevant and a wild thing to include, which is why I said they weren&apos;t elaborated.<br><br>For some reason, this one specific issue has gotten me some of the rudest comments I&apos;ve EVER seen on the channel. I&apos;ll admit my phrasing was vague but either way, chill, guys.

  I bet at least 1 guardian canonically died trying to drink the Vex Fluid just for the sheer curiosity to know how it tastes

  I’ve been looking forward to this one the most, mostly based on how they were described as “time travelling robots… who can’t time travel and aren’t robots” back in the first video :D

  Lucky for him that the vex barely have any characters. Means he can spend more time trying to explain the not-time travel lol

  Also a note: the clothes-wearing Vex were only able to break off from the Network because of a rogue ishtar collective researcher who got a hold of a paracausal artifact and was trying her best to avoid doomed yuri with her wife but then it ended up with her killing many of her wife&apos;s simulated copies who were still people in their own right and aaaaaagh the Conductor&apos;s lore was such a missed opportunity<br><br>But at least it gave me my precious tharsis reformation Vex who love wearing clothes and doing crime and gambling.

  I&apos;m sorry, so you&apos;re telling me the 4 years I was playing Destiny as an Exo Titan I was selling my loot trash to basically my dad?

  So Vex are krill that decided to show the universe who is the best. They created mecha suits, mastered science as a whole and developed a way to plan every single move by running simulations of the whole universe and the future. They are older than the universe itself, which is around 14 billion years old and every vex is as inteligent as the whole species. They can be as small as a puddle in the ground, or large as the core of a planet.<br><br>And they can&apos;t beat my silly level 1 hunter because big ball in the sky lets me break reality.<br><br> Imagine how frustrating that must be for them.

  Sidenote on Banshee-44 and the whole Clovis thing<br><br>Clois 1-43 was the wielder of The Lament, which was a Chainsword which was described as &quot;wailing like a banshee seeking vengence.&quot;<br><br>Thus, he was originally given Banshee as a nickname, and when he voluntarily reset himself for the 44th time, he asked for it to become his proper name
