It is bolstered by a large horde of Lucent Hive Thrall and Acolytes, as well as a Lucent Archivist Wizard. Balhoth can deal rapid damage to you with a constant, highly-accurate barrage of Void bolts from its eyes, forcing you to quickly move to cover to avoid death. It possesses the ability to create poisonous clouds around his enemies, potentially driving them out of an area and giving it chance to fire at them. The Ogre is also capable of throwing Acolyte Grenades that explode when they hit the ground, leaving many flames in their wake. If the player gets too close, it can stomp the ground and create a large burning pool that deals a significant amount of damage. However, the boss is lacking in defensive abilities and can do nothing to avoid attacks, making it quite easy to finish off in a quick manner. Hive reinforcements will come to back up the Ogre when it loses enough health. After sustaining a significant amount of damage, Balhoth will enter berserk mode and charge at you, attempting to land a melee attack.
