'''Acanthos''' is a [[Vex]] [[Gate Lord]] encountered on [[Nessus]]. Like [[Zydron]] and [[Qodron]], it is embodied in a massive [[Minotaur]] chassis.


==Overview==
'''Acanthos, Gate Lord''' was a [[Vex]] [[Gate Lord]] encountered on [[Nessus]]. It is the first boss encountered in the mission [[Six]].
 
==Biography==
Acanthos was encountered in the [[Glade of Echoes]], combating the invading Fallen forces on [[Nessus]] and blocking the path to the [[Exodus Black]]. It was subsequently defeated by the Guardian, granting them access to the Exodus Black.
 
==Gameplay==
Acanthos will automatically be seen fighting the [[Fallen]] when entering the [[Glade of Echoes]]. It will already have taken damage, as seen by its health bar, and have inferably destroyed the [[Fallen Walker]]s as seen scattered throughout the surrounding area. When spotted, the player will be bombarded with [[Void]] blasts from Acanthos while being swarmed by both [[Fallen]] and [[Vex]]. After damaging Acanthos for some amount of time, the Vex Mind will retreat until reaching a barrier, where it will fight the player until dead. Killing the Gate Lord will allow the player to enter the shielded area.
