Gameplay

Draksis is the primary target in the Story mission, "Scourge of Winter." Upon entering the room, he will stand up to get off of his throne and then begin to engage the player. He is armed with a shrapnel launcher for ranged combat. Draksis can also teleport across the room to evade enemy fire. As with any Ultra, melee combat is a bad idea, because Draksis will perform a ground pound that send the player flying into a wall, causing them to die of impact with a hard surface. Packing a high blast radius rocket launcher is recommended because it can reliably cover a wide area even if it misses and can deal heavy damage to Draksis on a direct hit and will stagger him, allowing the player an opportunity for follow-up shots.
