'''Darkblades''' are formidable variant of the [[Hive]] [[Knight]]. | |||
==Overview== | |||
Darkblades were first introduced in ''Destiny'' in the form of [[Alak-Hul, the Darkblade]], a unique [[Strike]] boss fought at the end of [[The Sunless Cell]]. Weaker versions of Alak-Hul were carried over into ''Destiny 2'' as mini-bosses, such as the [[Abyssal Champion]]. They are visually identical to Alak-Hul, except for a glowing line on their helmets similar to those of ''[[Destiny 2]]'''s Knights, and mechanically similar. | |||
==Gameplay== | |||
Darkblades will advance slowly towards the player and attempt to crush them with their axes. Like Alak-Hul, their helmets will break off when they take enough damage, causing them to become enraged and begin rushing at the player in a straight line. While they are easy to outmaneuver, one must be mindful of their surroundings to avoid being cornered while doing so. | |||
Some Darkblades have access to a teleportation ability where they will dissipate into the air and reappear a few moments later, often behind and/or within striking distance of the player. One should stay on the move and watch out for the reappearance to keep their guard up. | |||
Most Darkblades are [[Ultra]] enemies, but [[Major]] variants also exist. Regardless of their rank, they remain immune to [[Finisher]]s. | |||
