Known as the "Ghost of the [[Hellrise Canyon]]", he lured unsuspecting travelers into an impenetrable security network before eliminating them from afar, while also removing any threats such as [[Corsair]]s to let his fellow Barons plan their next move.

Ghost then tracked his position to [[Jetsam of Saturn]], where the Guardians eliminated the Rifleman, only to be mocked by him as it was a Decoy of him. After fighting through the Hive, the Guardians retrieved the item dropped by his Decoy and learned that the Rifleman employs lightweight simulation tech to project his decoys. | Ghost then tracked his position to [[Jetsam of Saturn]], where the Guardians eliminated the Rifleman, only to be mocked by him as it was a Decoy of him.

As more of his decoys fell at the hand of the Guardian, he continued mocking them by saying [[Uldren]] wants them dead and he will personally deliver their bodies to Uldren while keeping their Ghost. He further ridiculed them by saying he will sell their Ghost to the [[Spider]] or mount it on his wall next to Cayde's fallen Ghost. The Guardian retaliated, only for him to escape again and be cornered within the deepest caverns of the [[Hellrise Canyon]]. | As more of his decoys fell at the hand of the Guardian, he continued mocking them by saying [[Uldren]] wants them dead and he will personally deliver their bodies to Uldren while keeping their Ghost.

Pirrha's main weapon of choice is a [[Scorn Crossbow]], which fires powerful charged [[Void]] arrows from long range that can easily hit their mark; their high damage can crack a [[Guardian]]'s shield in an instant. When faced at closer ranges, he will teleport or smoke dash to evade and flank the player, and if cornered, he will stomp the ground to knock them back. His most devastating ability, however, is the use of solid-light decoys. The decoys can easily distract unprepared Guardians and overwhelm them with constant crossbow fire, although they are easily destroyed. If his use of numerous simultaneous decoys proves bothersome, one can deactivate them en masse with a few shots each from a high ammo capacity weapon capable of automatic fire, before focusing their firepower on Pirrha himself. | Pirrha's main weapon of choice is a [[Scorn Crossbow]], which fires powerful charged [[Void]] arrows from long range that can easily hit their mark; their high damage can crack a [[Guardian]]'s shield in an instant.
