How did you defeat Escharum on legendary and how lucky were you?

I know, and it’s really difficult to get to them with Escharum being the Flash.
Actually, he might as well be this guy (warning, spoilers for Spider-Man 2000 and might also be nightmare fuel):

The battle before that reminds me of it too.

Tried that.
Died.

The best strategy was grappling the mid-area walls while using an AR and BR.

Tried that, but Escharum is a corner-turning expert and caught up far more quickly if I ran or grappled around corners.

Exactly how much extra damage does the wall add anyway?

I’ve seen Escharum defeated in a few seconds, but not without glitches.

i have see that also but the one’s i have see was with the scorpoin gun easter egg.

look on 5.52 and thats on LASO run with the scorpoin gun.

and i was hoping that with the coil pile’s close to his spawn that it also was going to help it or at least he was lying down on the floor like on the same link but then on 10:30.

Yeah, I think that’s the one I saw, but not in that video.
Also, I like how that Elite got angry and left the Banshee. :laughing:

I wonder how that happened with Escharum at 10:30.

105

Standing on a wall lamppost about 2 meters above the ground in the corner of the room, while protecting myself with the drop shield and prey that he didn’t throw two spike grenades shortly after each other.

Took me about 5 tries.

106

I never thought about using the Drop Wall on a ledge…
He does throw those Spike Grenades quite fast though.

107

i also wane know that.
and i was hoping its something you need a coil pile and the boom+ cowbell skull on that you can get it.

i was testing on my easy 100% complete file to look and test a few things out if i can bring a Ghost or Warthog in the boss room for the Chak 'Lok fight i wane try on legendary on the 4th save file for the 5th time.
and it seems it was working out fine.
and to look more where i can pick a Ghost or warthog that are close to the location.

and when i am trying it out stuff like that on the legendary save file i keep deleting and remake to start the campaign on to try things like that out i get also more new content as extra bonus more.

@ShinoKeiyakusha
i have done it yes i have found out how to defeat Escharum on legendary legaal without the scorpoin gun or any type glitch to defeat him in a few sec’s that you can skip both parts super easy.
you need to use the boom skull and cowbell skull for sure to let it work.

you need to make a coil file where he spawns more and not use the hardlight coil’s in the pile and then you blow him away so fast that you defeat him.

Get far enough away from Escharum with the Grappling Hook, in the circular corridor(which has some crates that’ll slow him down)
Then quickly switch to Drop Wall and deploy it.

Also, Escharum can be stunned by electric damage.

110

and how do you wane do that when the shield his shield is up the 4 time’s then since stunning him then is not going to work any more.

111

That’s good to know.
Did you only use the two giant coils to do that?

Oh, okay.
So, you have to run in the circular area.
I think when I did that though, he just left it and went to the open area to get to me faster…
Did you use a certain pace to get away from him?

Stunning enemies is hit-or-miss for me.

I think stunning works on him even with shields, as long as he doesn’t have the generators.

112

Well, unfortunately that non-cheese is as far as I can help you with him. As that’s all what I did to defeat him.

Hope it goes well.

Yeah, I was wondering about that.
I tried to move them before fighting Escharum, but I don’t know how to do it.

I must have been thinking of when he doesn’t have shields then.

117

its not only working good for echarum only.
you can use it also for Bassus, Tremonius and if you can do it really good maybe you can make a biger coil pile for Jega 'Rdomnai boss fight also with the once that are on the same floor where he spawn’s.
good tip here: try to make sure there not hit anything when you do it in a boss fight.
since its diffrend when you practice on the locations more.
so make sure to practice it first before trying it out since you most master it more.
and good pro tip: use the cownbell skull and Boom skull for sure when you try it out in a boss fight since you need both off the skulls effect to make it working.
and there are time’s its going to take a few try’s to let it work also.
since its all about the blast wave’s more if there give him the right speed to flying so hard that you kill with him from the coil pile blast wave.

i hope this guide helps you.

stuning him with dynemo grenate’s is kinde hard to do on him since you need luck to stun him good same go’s for part 2 off the fight its about luck.

118

Thanks.
I didn’t even think about using the Grappleshot like that…
All I tried was running into the coils and grappling them.

It really is, and that’s how I’ve felt about most of the fights in Infinite on Legendary.
