Master the Lord of Chaos mission in Tempest Rising (Aurelia/Minos Iceworks). Learn strategies for Araghast the Pillager, squad builds, and item locations.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The mission involves battling Araghast the Pillager. Be aware that using the 'Fall Back' command (X-key) or tactical withdrawals increases Corruption. It is possible to complete this mission without retreating, even on Primarch difficulty, especially with level 30 squads in Terminator armor.
  2. 2
    Equip Cyrus with a Sniper Rifle and [CLUSTER MINES] with the [DEMOLITIONS EXPERTISE] trait to control the battlefield with mines, preventing enemies from closing in.
  3. 3
    Tarkus is vital for crowd-control. Use [TAUNT] and ensure he has energy for [TACTICAL ADVANCE] and [I SHALL NOT FALL] traits to avoid incapacitation.
  4. 4
    The Force Commander can refill energy for squads using [BATTLE CRY] with the [INSPIRING SHOUT] trait.
  5. 5
    Avitus should handle enemy armor.
  6. 6
    Consider capturing the Shrine in the northwest corner of the map.
  7. 7
    Chaos Plague Marines are time-consuming to defeat. Be prepared for (2) Chaos Predator Tanks and several Chaos Dreadnaughts; use Avitus' [FOCUS FIRE] and the Force Commander's [TELEPORT] and [RIGHTEOUS FURY] abilities.
  8. 8
    Advance patiently. Araghast will attempt to retreat for a (3rd) time before Eliphas betrays him.
  9. 9
    Fight Araghast the Chaos Lord, who has 467,600 HP. He has a special AoE attack resembling radiating Hellspikes. Use the Force Commander's [BATTLE CRY] on the boss. Tarkus can use [TAUNT], or Cyrus can plant [CLUSTER MINES] to make the fight easier.
Tips
  • Focus on squad builds that minimize the need for retreat.
  • Utilize Cyrus's mines extensively for area denial and damage.
  • Leverage Tarkus's crowd-control and the Force Commander's support abilities.
  • Prioritize taking down heavy enemy armor and tanks with Avitus and the Force Commander.
  • Capture the northwest Shrine for potential advantages.
  • Wargear Found: Gorgon Plate, Bionic Implants, Agony's Harbinger, Claw of Wrath
