Thalnok, Fanatic of Crota

Alright. This has been bugging me for a while. Does anyone know how to kill this guy?

  • Swordbearer spawns in middle, kill him along with all other adds, triumphant music plays, everyone shoots Fanatic till kneels, sword man beats heck out of fanatic, win.

  • People keep saying it is the same as Crota but this just isn't true with all the bullshit adds spawning non stop, the boss being less predictable, and not having Gjallarhorn. I've soloed Crota so I thought this would be a piece of cake but even with a fireteam of two we couldn't even get close to being able to do it. Only way we were able to drop him effectively was with exotic swords but that is sketchy as hell due to his one hit slam. I'll try again today in a team of three but it is definitely harder than Crota in my opinion.

    Step 1: find a former crota Sword bearer. Identifying marks include necrochasm, glowhoo, and oryx hating him in particular Step 2: GIVE HIM THE GADDAMN SWORD. Step 3: FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, FOCUS FIRE BABY CROTAS BITCHASS TILL HE'S ON HIS KNEES BEFORE I GET CUT IN HALF! Source: I'm a 305 light level former Sword bearer who is tired of seeing some random Rambo wannabe get chopped in half, or when they do get baby crota down, can only do 1/5th of his health in 1 down. Give it to someone who knows what they are doing. Last night I swooped in and stole the sword, and waited 20 seconds before they finally brought him down. After that, I killed him with a single down! Light slam, heavy × 3, super slam and heavy to finish him off at 305 light

    • You can't kill him in the dreadnaught mission it has to be done in the tier 3 in the court of Oryx.

    • 1. Shoot the adds. 2. Shoot the Wizards. 3. Kill the sword bearer. 4. Focus fire on Fanatic. 5. Hit Fanatic with sword when he takes a bow. 6. Get paid. His shields recharge fast so you either have to hit him hard, or hit him fast. Better if you can do both. DON'T HIT HIM WITH THE SWORD UNTIL HIS SHIELDS ARE GONE. It's Crota 101. Have your highest light carry the sword for max damage, you should shoot for 3 heavy sword hits. Wait for his shields to cool down and knock him down again. Hit him again for 3 heavy swords and then back off and wait for adds again. You can get two rounds of sword hits easily, if you're having trouble then your team needs to tighten up their shots. One guy on left adds, one on right and one to aggro the swordbearer. Your team should only fire their heavy ammo into Crota and should knock him down before they have to reload, if you can't do this they need to find better weapons. If you are the sword bearer, keep your eye on his shields, as soon as they go you need to be hitting him with the heavy attack, don't waste time with the super. Also don't shoot him as soon as he stands, he has 2 seconds of invulnerability that will just eat your ammo. Hopefully this will help somebody.

    • Kill adds, kill sword bearer, grab sword, have buddies take down his shield. Slam 3 times. Repeat. Profit.

    • A friend helps. You kill yellow bar knight, he drops sword. You then help friend kill witches and start taking down the big dudes shield. (Primary works fine, heavy best) When he kneels hit him with sword. Repeat 3 times maybe.

        • ah sword knight spawns in the center with all the other ads. You can pick up the sword and damage the fanatic when his shields are down

        • Should get at least 4 people. Kill all ads and then grab the sword. Bring down Thalnok's shield and then sword bearer does damage. It's essentially a mini Crota raid and is a lot more difficult.

          • I had 6 people in the court doing it. It is essentially the crota's end fight but in a confined space. One guy get's the sword from the yellow knight, and the rest shoot the bosss until his shield goes down. He then goes into a crouched position, and at this time, the guy carrying the special sword can swing at him to damage him. Rinse and repeat from here. Make sure to kill the wizards as soon as they spawn.
