One The First Descendant Boss Is Demolishing Players, But This Weapon Makes It So Much Easier

A particular boss in poses a massive challenge, but can be defeated easily with the right weapon. As a looter-shooter game, 's players live or die by their equipment. But it's not just the typical weapons and armor that make a difference: 's modules, effectively buffing accessories with a strictly limited capacity, can greatly alter the utility of a character's build.

Ideally, this mission can be planned ahead with a full team of four: three of them should have Tamers and Scout Rifles equipped, and the fourth should play as a fast Descendant like Bunny or Viessa. The three with Tamers should lay down covering fire while the fourth person runs in and out to grab the cube. Using Tamers won't prevent the altar from exploding, or prevent those
