When the player reaches the exit to fortress, it will blocked of with barrier of Hive magic, and the [[Scorn]] will be seen clashing with [[Lucent Brood]] forces across the way. Upon getting closer, three Barrier Guard Knights will spawn throughout the area; one wielding a [[Shredder]] in the center, and two others armed with [[Boomer]]s on the left and right sides. Barrier Guards are capable of creating and throwing [[Acolyte Grenade|Solar Mortar]] grenades at long ranges, which leave a lingering pool of flames where they land. They can also enter Berserk Mode, which will cause them to charge at a player and attempt to slam them with their weapon. Despite this, their defensive capabilities are lacking, and they can be taken down with relative ease so long as one is careful of their grenades and they are kept separated. Once all three Knights have been killed, a [[Lightbearer Wizard]] will spawn, who summons two [[Major]] [[Blistered Knight]] variants of the Barrier Guards when it has lost enough health. When playing the mission in Legendary mode, however, the Wizard will summon the regular [[Ultra]] versions, and will spawn several throughout the duration of the battle. | |||
==Trivia== | |||
*The Barrier Guards' helmet designs resemble other, formerly unique [[Knight]] helmets. The Boomer Barrier Guard's helmet resembles the [[Warpriest]]'s from [[King's Fall]], and the Shredder Barrier Guard's resembles the [[Treasured Knight]]s' from the [[Menagerie]] activity of ''[[Season of Opulence]]''. | |||
