Halo Infinite Escharum Boss Guide: How To Beat

Halo Infinite Escharum

 Halo Infinite has plenty of bosses that you need to beat in order to progress the game. In this Halo Infinite guide, we are going to walk you through how you can beat Escharum.

How To Beat Escharum In Halo Infinite

Escharum is one of the last bosses in the game. The boss has two phases and the boss becomes even harder to beat when you increase the difficulty. The fight starts with the boss firing a scrap cannon. You should avoid taking damage from the incoming projectiles by taking cover. 

You will find plenty of different weapons in the area but we recommend taking all the Plasma Grenades that you can find. The Shock Rifle is going to be useful against this boss compared to the other games that you will find around you. On the west side of the arena, you will find a pair of rocket launchers which you should take as well. These can do a lot of damage to the boss.

Once you have done some damage to the boss, he is going to come to the center of the room and put up his shield. In order to destroy the shield, you will need to destroy the power cell. You will be able to see a glowing tube in one of the pillars in the room. You can use Plasma Grenades at them in order to destroy them.

Note that the boss can move in the way in order to block your attacks. When that happens you can move to the other side of the room so that the boss follows you. You can then head back and destroy the tubes. Once the power cell has been destroyed, the shield around the boss is going to come down and you can damage the boss. 

You need to keep repeating this process until you bring down the HP of the boss enough to trigger the second phase of the boss battle.

Escharum Boss Fight Phase Two

During the second phase of the boss fight, the boss is going to use a Gravity Hammer named the Diminisher of Hope. He is then going to follow you around in order to try and attack you. You will need to keep moving around in order to avoid taking damage. You can use Thrusters in order to quickly dash out of the way. 

Taking a direct hit from the hammer is going to deplete your health. What you can do is avoid his attacks and deal damage whenever possible. The boss dashes in a straight line so you should be able to dodge his incoming attack and then deal headshots to him. Using Skewers or a Mangler is going to do a lot of damage to the boss. An upgraded Grapppleshot is going to come in handy here as well.
