Solo 3 Phase Akelous The Siren's Current Spire Of The Watcher Dungeon (Hunter) Destiny 2
During my Day 1 Solo Flawless run I ended up having to 5 phase this boss. I wasn't happy with that encounter after I completed it during my initial run because I knew I could do it better. Ended up 3 phasing it on the first re run. I'm not sure if a 2 phase is possible seeing how it seems to cap your damage after a certain point but we'll see.
BUILD/MODS:
- Taking Charge
- Solo Operative
- Weakened Clear
- High Energy Fire
- Kinetic Siphon
- Star Eater Scales
- Gathering Storm
How to consistently three phase: Have your super (Gathering Storm) up. Gather 4 orbs for Star Eater Scales and make sure you have High Energy Fire up before you start each damage phase. Break all of the eyes then immediately apply witherhoard (with weakening clear) then use your super on the boss. Then switch to Cataclysmic and do DPS. Make sure you hit him in his crit spot (it's relatively massive, not hard to miss). Repeat that 3 times and the boss will be dead.
- 1st Side Note: Breaking the bosses eyes with your primary will proc Bait and Switch. You do not need to apply witherhoard and then switch back to your primary weapon again. Breaking his eyes then applying witherhoard will proc bait and switch just be quick about it.
- 2nd Side Note: There is not much room for error. If you miss any of your initial witherhoard it'll be a 4 phase. There is some forgiveness with Cataclysmic you don't have to hit all 10 critical shots with Bait and Switched proc'd. You can do it with 9 shots each damage phase and still 3 phase him (in total you can miss around 3-5 shots). If you are fast enough you can also get a grenade off for additional damage (if you do this do it immediately after you apply witherhoard).

It has come to my attention that another channel that goes by All The Players had done pretty much the exact same strategy/loadout I show here a few hours before. I wasn't aware of this. No I did not copy his video/strategy nor did I have any intention on doing so. All credit goes to him.
