Barrier Knight

Overview

Barrier Knight is a Hive Knight of the Champion rank. It fights like an ordinary Knight until it has lost a large part of its health. Then it covers itself in a dome-shaped shield and regenerates behind it, and it can still fire from inside the shield.

Breaking the shield

The dome has to be broken and the Knight staggered with anti-barrier damage, such as the anti-barrier perks a Seasonal Artifact provides. More generally, Barrier Champions are stunned by Solar while radiant, by Void volatile rounds, by Strand unraveling rounds, or by Exotic weapons such as Wish-Ender. Without anti-barrier damage the Knight regains its health.

Variants

Related variants include the Barrier Disruptor and the Envoy of Savathûn.
