Fighting Ir Yut, the Deathsinger[edit]
This challenge takes a lot of coordination and everyone will have something important to do.
The Fireteam needs to be divided into groups of 2. 3 are going to the left and 3 are going to the right. Each team will have a number of specific enemies they will need to deal with. The enemies are symmetrical in their numbers. Be careful. Until you reach the final portion of this challenge you want Everyone to stay alive.
The first foes are a pair of Hallowed Knights. A few Guardians should rush in and kill them quickly.
Beyond them you will be taking on a number of Acolytes that rush out into the middle section. As the rest of the Guardians should kill a few of them as they rush to the sides. 1 Guardian should take a moment and quickly check the middle to ensure it is clear.
On the left and right-hand side there are more Acolytes and another Hallowed Knight. There are 3 to deal with on each side. 1 is in the tower, another on the bridge and the third is in the hallway leading toward Ir Yut.
Once the Knights are dead, a Hallowed Wizard will appear from the middle of the back room. It has a Solar Shield. It will die to 2-3 swipes from the Raze-Lighter or a few more hits from a high impact Special Weapon like a Sniper Rifle or Shotgun.
Go inside the hallway the Wizard came out of. You will find a Shrieker that your group needs to destroy. If you have a Sleeper Simulant then 2 blasts from it, even while it is closed, will destroy the Shrieker.
With the Shieker down, rush into the middle section where you will find Ir Yut and 2 Hallowed Knights (if both Shriekers have been destroyed). The fireteam only needs to kill the Knights. Leave Ir Yut alone for now.
There are also 6 Thrall that rush out of a door on the side of the chamber
If all the enemies are dead, you will receive the notice that Ir Yut Shrieks in fear. This triggers the more difficult second portion of this challenge.
Everyone immediately needs to run outside. There are a lot of enemies pouring out of the doors. This is the best time to use your Supers and Heavy Weaponry like a Sleeper Simulant or Gjallarhorn to demolish the Hive.
3 Hallowed Knights appear in both towers. A Guardian needs to rush up here and quickly kill them. Shotguns and the Raze-Lighter are preferred here to quickly take out all 3 of the Knights.
An Orge will appear in the lower portion of each tower. These take 3 Heavy swipes with a Raze-Lighter.
In the middle, another Hallowed Orge will appear with 4 Acolytes as well.
When all of the enemies have been cleared, a Swordbearer will appear in the Front Middle Door. If you were fast enough, the Liturgy of Ruin should be starting around now.
Let the Swordbearer step out into the arena and then the Fireteam should loose their weaponry on them. You want to kill the Swordbearer with at least 15 seconds left on the timer.
Someone needs to grab the sword and immediately start running for Ir Yut.
Once in her chamber, just rush and slash her once to kill her and complete the challenge.
Tips[edit]
- Sword users equipped with the Memory of Radegast can deflect the incoming Shrieker Deathblast by using the Guard ability of their sword. 'DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS WITH DARK-DRINKER
- If you have a Sleeper Simulant then 2 blasts from it, even while it is closed, will destroy the Shrieker.
