Ir Yût resided in the [[Oversoul Throne]], Crota's throne world, at the time of the Guardians' raid on the Hellmouth. She was slain by the Lightbearers, and [[Deathsinger (armor)|armor]] and weapons were fashioned from the spoils.

However, she could be found several months later attending Crota's death ceremony in the mission [[Last Rites]], along with the Daughters of Oryx and few other Deathsingers. This points to her possibly being an Ascendant Hive, as well as still being alive somewhere, as killing her in the Oversoul Throne certainly wouldn't cause her final death. | ||

Unlike all the other raid bosses before her, Ir Yût will not immediately be actively attacking any [[Guardian]]s. Instead, she will have locked herself inside the room containing [[Crota, Son of Oryx|Crota]]'s summoning crystal. At this time, all players should be focused on killing enemies, namely [[Shrieker]]s. Once they are destroyed, she will activate her special ability. | Unlike all the other raid bosses before her, Ir Yût will not immediately be actively attacking any [[Guardian]]s.

===Challenge Mode=== | |||
[[Age of Triumph]] added a Challenge Mode for Ir Yût. In order to complete it, the players must kill everything in the area (including the Wizards and Shriekers) and then kill her with an [[Ascendant Sword]]. Once the first wave of enemies are killed, a message saying "Ir Yût shrieks in fear" will appear on the bottom left. The fireteam must rush into the open area and kill everything (including Ogres) once more to spawn a [[Swordbearer]]. Once it is killed, a Guardian must pick up the sword and rush back to Ir Yût and kill her with one swipe. | [[Age of Triumph]] added a Challenge Mode for Ir Yût.
