Fight the Hedron
When you are back in the Unknown after the previous mission, make can now make your way to fight the Hedron. Go to the northwest point where there is a gravity well. Use it to drop toward the Hedron on the far west of the map.
Once you land, you will start fighting the Hedron. This is a three phase fight, taking place in three arenas with a health bar for each part. You don’t fight the Hedron directly, but fight smaller enemies that are connected to it and damage the health bar.
During the first phase the boss will switch between shooting projectiles at you from the side of the arena it is currently on, then sending the enemies you need to attack to the center of the arena where you can damage them.
After defeating a handful of the smaller enemies it will also start to spawn heavy enemies that will typically stay in stationary spots in the arena. These also contribute to the health bar and must be defeated.
Once you have depleted the health bar, you will need to press
to finish off the Hedron, then again when you are transported into the core.
Now in the second phase, the boss will start shooting lasers at the ground near you, which you should avoid.
The boss will repeat sending the small enemies to the platform for you to deal with. These ones will primarily move back and forth across the arena while shooting lasers, you can hit an enemy to stop them and allow you to attack.
Because there are two areas in this arena now, you need to move to the other arena once you deal half of the health bar to the boss, as it will spawn half of the enemies on each side of the arena. You can use Reach to grapple to the platforms that are in the air on either side, then across to the other area. Defeat the enemies on this side again, then kill the center of the Hedron and the core again.
The third arena has two areas again, you will need to switch between both areas to hit the smaller enemies. The boss primarily spawns heavy enemies in two waves. Once you defeat the wave of the first type of enemy, it will then send out the second. It does still spawn smaller enemies, but the heavy enemies are the ones that contribute to the health bar. If you can’t reach the enemies, you must use the gravity wells on the side and shift to the opposite side of the area.
Once you drain the health bar, defeat the center of the Hedron, then the core one more time to complete the mission.
This finishes Fight to the Core in Control Resonant.
