'''Savathûn's Song''' was | '''Savathûn's Song''' was an Ultra [[Shrieker]] that serveed as the main boss of the [[Savathûn's Song (strike)|Savathûn's Song]] [[Strike]] in ''[[Destiny 2]]''. | ||

Savathun's Song | Savathun's Song would initially be resting in its crystal casing, where it would be immune to all damage. Breaking the crystal beneath awakened it and the encounter begun. The attack pattern was quite simple, with Savathun's Song selecting a single player of the team to focus on, and shooting a constant stream of Void blasts at them, switching periodically. | ||
As its health | As its health was depleted, it would periodically vanish and then teleport just like [[Alak-Hul, the Darkblade]] if not killed fast enough. Its weak spots, the eye and the bright yellow 'crack' on the back of the center orb, were be open to attack until its health reduced by one-third; once this happened, it retracted its protective casing, giving it full immunity once again. Savathun's Song would then only come out to attack again when the [[Hive]] reinforcements it summoned were killed. When its health was reduced by another third, it summoned 3 [[Ogre]]s to assist it. Once it neared death, about ten percent health, Savathun's Song would fully shield itself in a [[Void]] barrier, still being able to attack from the safety of the barrier, with two [[Wizards]] spawning alongside to ward off player advances. The only way to disable this barrier was to insert a [[Void]] charge beneath it by killing a [[Savathun's Handmaiden]] [[Wizard]]. It would then teleport back to the main area and continued to attack until killed. | ||
Savathun's Song also | Savathun's Song also possessed a second attack that it used less frequently; a distinct, metallic noise signaled the Song summoning six explosive Void projectiles and launching them at a single [[Guardian]]. Unlike the regular stream of energy bolts, these explosive projectiles would seek around cover (similar to a [[Taken Centurion]]'s Axion Darts) and all six were able to easily kill a Guardian if they connect. The fireteam were able to shoot them down fairly easily, however. When killed, the [[Shrieker]] exploded, with the core still intact and falling to the floor, its Void energy sapped, and marking the end of the Strike. | ||
