Hive Lightbearer

Hive Lightbearers are Hive enemies that guard the energy orbs used in the Balakh fight. There are three kinds: the Lightbearer Acolyte guards a Solar charge, the Lightbearer Knight guards a Void charge, and the Lightbearer Wizard guards an Arc charge.

Balakh is a large Hive Ogre and the boss of the Slayer Cyst in the Seclusion, first seen in The Final Shape. Its immunity shield blocks all damage until a nearby Lightbearer is killed and its orb is thrown at Balakh. When Balakh drops to one third of its health the shield returns, and the Lightbearers have to be killed again.
