Dominus Ghaul | Dominus Ghaul is the main boss of the [[Story]] mission [[Chosen]]. He mainly attacks with a one-handed [[Projection Rifle]] for long-ranged fire and will summon a Quake shockwave when faced up close, but will constantly shift through different [[Light]]-based attacks. The first is [[Solar]] Slicer, where, like a [[Dawnblade]], he rises up into the air and throws flaming swords at the player, which inflict a burning effect upon a direct hit. The second is a [[Void]] shield, where he will be immune to damage as he charges up the attack shortly before releasing it, creating a giant dome that slows the player down when trapped inside. The third is [[Arc]] Wrath, where he hurls Arc energy spheres, which leave behind a shockwave that deals damage over time. This constant shift in attacks makes Ghaul a dangerous foe. | ||
