Rise Of Iron - "Wrath Of The Machine" Normal Raid Part 6 - Aksis: Archon Prime Phase 2
1This is the final part of the raid as the fireteam of 6 takes on Aksis...for real. Here's the mechanics on how to beat him:
1. Do the same method in Phase 1. Kill all ad's. (in phase 2 it's shanks & sniper shanks)
2. 3 people at random will be chosen as "Empowered". Clear the remaining shanks & then kill your elemental captain quickly. 1 person on each section gets cannons & shoots down the right servitors, while the other person grabs the SIVA balls & get rid of his shields.
3. Once his shields are gone, he will shift to his 1st position either in left, right, front-mid or back-mid. The 3 Empowered players MUST be at the correct spot (1 per section). Whoever is closest, stuns Aksis. e.g. if his 1st movement is right, then the Empowered person on right only will be the one to stun him. However, you'll have about 5 seconds, if you don't stun/take too long/don't co-ordinate, his shields go up again & you'll either start again, or the team wipes.
4. Once he's stunned, do some DPS for the 1st run. Aksis, will make his 2nd move (on left e.g., Empowered person on left must stun him to continue the DPS), if successful, do DPS on the 2nd run. Then he'll make 1 more move to front-middle. After he's stunned one last time, do massive DPS (use tethers, weapons & all 3 cannons) until his shields go up. Then go to 1 of the 4 pillars in the back & stay there until the SIVA nites sequence is over. Remember, all 6 players need to be on 1 pillar.
Now for Aksis' movements, he could go to the same area twice, but NOT in a row (e.g. left, right, left) so focus on where he goes.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 until Aksis' health goes down to about 10%. When he's at that point, he'll do an "Oryx" sequence & head to middle to initiate self-destruct. You'll have about 10 seconds to finish him off with massive DPS & hopefully be dead. Now if you don't do enough damage when the SD is complete, the whole team is dead & you'll have to start again. And that's how you do phase 2.
The whole raid is over & there's a good chance I'll probably record the hard mode version of this raid starting Oct. 18th. So this is a good time to sub here as we're now 7 away from 300! Thanks for watching! Peace out guardians!
