Boss Fight: Adjutant Resolution¶
Once you’ve defeated the two Hunters beneath the Spire, you can interact with the terminal to activate the gravity lift. All you need to do now is step on it to be taken up into the Spire, then follow the linear path until you reach another terminal. Interact with this to trigger a cutscene, then follow the Adjutant Resolution to the observation platform. You’ll need to wait for it to activate a bridge before you follow it at some point, so try not to fall into the unknown depths at this stage. You’ll soon reach the observation platform where you can deploy the weapon at the terminal to trigger another cutscene, at the end of which the boss fight with Adjutant Resolution begins.
The fight with this boss can seem difficult at first, but it’s actually one of the easier boss fights once you know exactly what to do. You won’t be able to damage Adjutant Resolution if you hit the main body of its armor. Instead, you’ll need to hit the glowing lights which act as weapons. The Adjutant Resolution begins the fight with four active weapons on each arm extension. It will take a few hits to destroy one of these, but each time you do the Adjutant Resolution will be stunned for a brief period. During this time you can shoot at its core eye to inflict additional damage, but it will soon be back firing with the remaining arm extensions. You’ll need to shoot each one to eliminate it, and repeat the process of shooting at the core eye once it’s stunned. You’ll take a good chunk of health away from the Adjutant Resolution each time you destroy one of its weapons, so the fight shouldn’t take too long.

The Adjutant Resolution is fairly clumsy and slow moving, so you can easily outmaneuver it by kiting it around one of the nearby pillar structures. This will give you the chance to reload or recover your energy shield if you do happen to be hit, but it’s possible to avoid being hit throughout the entire fight so long as you kite the Adjutant Resolution properly. Towards the end of the fight once you’ve destroyed most of the Adjutant Resolution’s arm extensions, it will begin firing a more powerful energy beam which can inflict a lot of damage in a short space of time. You’ll need to avoid this at all costs, and you can use the Grappleshot to quickly move from one part of the room to another if necessary. As you move around the pillars, be sure to throw grenades for some extra damage.
Keep kiting the Adjutant Resolution and stay behind the pillar if you get hit until your energy shield regenerates:
