To encounter HKD-1, players must first place a [[Cryptolith Lure|lure]] on a [[Cryptolith]] found in [[Thieves' Landing]].  


The lure will attract a [[Fallen Wrathborn]] [[Servitor]] and after depleting its health, it will abandon the Cryptolith and retreat. Players are then tasked with preventing its escape by locating its lair in [[Tangled Shore]]. A quest beacon will pop up and allow them to start the "Track the Wrathborn" activity. Players are recommended to read through the modifiers and be of 1150+ [[Light]] level before they begin their hunt.

The activity starts at [[The Boil]] and players need to defeat the nearby [[Fallen]] before place another lure by the Cryptolith. The Wrathborn Servitor will re-emerge with its depleted health and defeating it will summon a larger [[Wrathborn]].  


HKD-1 will spawn with an immunity shield, alongside corrupted Wrathborn [[Captain]]s. Killing these Captains will allow players to gain the "Wrathful" buff by standing inside the green pool they drop. This buff will enable them to damage boss's shield, as well deal extra damage to it. If players leave the pool or if it dissipates, the buff will last for four seconds before they have to get back in the pool or kill another Captain to spawn a new one. It is recommended that players remain in the pool for as long as possible and use heavy weaponry to counter HKD-1's durability and defeat the Heavy Shank for good.
