Destiny Ultimate Boss Aksis Solo Battle Guide
Scrdrow uploaded a video on how he defeated the Aksis. He also posted on Reddit the gear and strategy he used in defeating the big boss. He said the strategy in defeating Aksis is not that complex compared to Oryx. However, such feat is unheard of until now.
Build And Gear Used In Defeating Aksis
Most of the weapons and gears used ranged from 399 to 400 Light. The build he use is a 399 Sunsinger Warlock and include Arcane Force, Solar Grenade, Flameshield and other related items. ScaRdrow is also armed with 400 Light Image Loop with explosive rounds, 399 Raze Lighter with Scabbard as well.
Destiny Ultimate Boss Aksis Strategy
The video is a wonderful tutorial on how to defeat the Aksis Boss. First step is to wipe out the Shanks. Weapon of choice against them is the Image Loop. Its explosive rounds allow players to kill Shanks with one shot. However, the Solar Grenade is quite effective in killing a lot of Shanks.
Once the Shanks have been dealt with, turn your attention to the captains. Kill the first Captain on the left and use the cannon to kill the second captain on the right side. Finally kill the last captain situated in the middle.
Destiny players are now ready to face Aksis. Make sure that each shot count since he has a high tolerance for pain. Aksis has the ability to teleport in order to evade attacks. This is the reason why Destiny players confront the ultimate boss as a team, making sure that a player is in position to shoot him wherever he teleports.
However, Aksis' teleportation is quite predictable. Just follow the appearance of a Red Blur since this serves as an advance notice that the boss will appear on that spot. Destiny players will need patience, some skill and luck to defeat Aksis on their own. But it's doable.
