how did you beat ESCHERON? (im on legendary)

[Dedprice]

got him down to a quarter of health. no more noob boxes to throw at him. rockets ran out. i got the terrible weapons on the rack, the turrent guns that make you turn into a turtle (basically what hes begging for me to use so he can one shot me.. i mean he does no matter what)

and the upgraded assault rifle. i try going for the kinetic ammo and he pins me in that corner, as soon as i lead him to one side and run out the other he does his jump, skids off the wall, and boom. grav hammer, cross map one shot... cant stand this dude.

If you are complaining about the arena being too small you haven't mastered movement with the grapple. Grabble, hop as you hit the ground, then crouch as you land again. Beat the fight first try on heroic but died many times throughout the campaign. like most fights its just kite and move, kite and move.

exactly this ^^^ mastering the grapple slide makes distance immediately. The fight was honestly boring since i just spent the whole time kiting him in circles with walls inbetween us.

i literally spent hours ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ around with the grapple and thrusters just because it was fun. i can legit stay in the face of a hunter and use them to never get hit once and kill a hunter (provided its just one, killing two at once is annoying)

escheron's maximum jump range exceeds half the area he fights you in, and you cant grab his back because the shockwave from the unique grav hammer he has, will still instant kill you. as for the actual final boss? cheese.

The fight wasn't that bad though? were you using your abilities? dodging around the walls in circles until the grav hammer came out and then i just grapple slid across the room and just shot at him?? it was kinda underwhelming tbh? took 1 try to see his moveset and the next try to beat him since he only has two phases that barely change mechanics.

escheron... not harbinger

You have to get close to her and hit her with a sword or gravity hammer. That makes it significantly easier and faster.

Oh well he's much more straightforward, you just have to stay very mobile and use the corners.

2. i feel like alot of people say this but didnt do it on legendary.
3. if both the above dont apply, just look for me responses to others.

That's why I chose to finish the game in Heroic and wait patiently the cooperative mode to play in Legendary that for sure will be more fun, less frustrating.

Nah to each their own.

I just know that I won't have the motivation to beat a hard boss that I've already beaten once on a harder difficulty at a later time, so I just get the hardest run knocked out first so I never have to do it again lol.

I only play the Open World in Legendary with Thunderstorm, Blind and Catch which is fun as hell, but everything related to closed environments and boss fight I avoid at all cost 😂

There are sentinel beams all over the place and they burn through her shield and health very fast.

She dies easily. The difficulty is in killing the waves of enemies that are like half snipers with minimal cover.

There are plenty of weapons around the room that you can use against Escharum. Don't need to just use rockets. Sure, he's a huge bullet sponge, but compared to a lot of other bosses he's slow.

I used a disruptor pistol to take down the last third of his health or so. Needler works well, as well. And whatever else you can find.

The boss fights are atrocious in this game, but Escharum is by far one of the less awful.

Yeah how dare a game be hard on the highest difficulty...

If you can't cut it, play an easier difficulty.

There's a difference between difficulty that feels like a reasonable challenge and one that's just filled with cheap deaths. And legendary in this game trends very much towards the latter, much more so than any previous Halo game I've played.

Think of that area in Metropolis where you come out of the tunnel and there's that park with a bunch of Jackal snipers and a gauss Warthog driving around. Imagine a game with entire levels like that. That's Halo Infinite on legendary.
