He serves as the second encounter and the first boss in the dungeon. He first ambushes players when they arrive in the submerged part of the arena, using [[Sentinel Shield]] to resist the lethal pressure. Once the [[Guardian]]s disturb the [[Acolyte]]s above, Ecthar will emerge and begin the battle. | ||
At the beginning of the encounter, Ecthar will be invincible and roam around the arena, attacking with his [[Boomer]] and [[Suppressor Grenade]]s and erecting Towering Barricades, alongside his numerous reinforcements. Once the [[Blistered Knight]]s and [[Keeper of the Deep]] are slain, the Shield of Savathûn will cast Sentinel Shield again and return to the submerged section. Here, he will chase after players trying to activate the correct symbols, with his shield smashes knocking considerable amounts of pressure resistance off of a Guardian's bar. | At the beginning of the encounter, Ecthar will be invincible and roam around the arena, attacking with his [[Boomer]] and [[Suppressor Grenade]]s and erecting Towering Barricades, alongside his numerous reinforcements.
