Lurkers are a shield-bearing Scorn unit that uses a gladiatorial shield to block incoming damage for themselves and their allies, and Scorn Pistols to attack from afar.

Overview

Lurkers are Scorn warriors that have the ability to block enemy fire with a shield, similar to a Guardian Sentinel or a Cabal Phalanx. They primarily work to protect their allies in battle. Their legs are a weak spot.

Trivia

• The Lurker is the third enemy type to wield a shield in battle. The first being the Cabal Phalanx and the second being the Hive Vanquisher.
  • However, unlike the Vanquisher's shield, the Lurker's does not shatter.
• The Lurker's shield looks akin to the front plate of a Servitor. This is likely to the Scorn's disdain of normal Ether and the Servitor's that produce it.
• The Lurkers bear resemblance to the Kig-Yar, an enemy race from Bungie's Halo series, as per the similarity of shields, height, and weapon choice.
