Halo Infinite features several challenging bosses to beat including Chak 'Lok, who uses a special ability that can be difficult to counter. In order to defeat Chak 'Lok, players will need certain equipment. It's also easier to beat this boss if players have completed some open-world exploration in Halo Infinite and gathered Spartan Cores for upgrades. Finding Spartan Cores in Halo Infinite will require a thorough exploration of each open section of the map.
Players will obtain the Threat Sensor while playing through the campaign missions in Halo Infinite. The Threat Sensor is essential to defeating Chak 'Lok, as it will reveal his position. Otherwise, Chak 'Lok uses a special ability to turn almost completely invisible and will sneak up on players with an Energy Sword. Revealing Chak 'Lok's location will give players the advantage they need to win the fight.
In Halo Infinite, there are eight Spartan Cores available on the first island, Recovery. Players can use the cores to get a few upgrades that will help them in the fight against Chak 'Lok, such as the Grappleshot upgrades. Using three cores, players can boost the Grappleshot so it stuns enemies when shot at them directly. This will work to temporarily immobilize Chak 'Lok so players can work on dealing as much damage as possible.
Defeating Chak 'Lok in Halo Infinite
Halo Infinite players will fight Chak 'Lok at the end of the fourth campaign mission, "The Tower." The fight will take place in an arena in which Chak 'Lok will use Active Camo to turn nearly invisible. The Threat Sensor, an unmissable item that players will obtain by playing Halo Infinite's campaign, works by revealing threats in a specified area. Chak 'Lok will be highlighted as long as he's in the Threat Sensor's range, so players will need to use it continuously to keep Chak 'Lok visible. The Threat Sensor can also be upgraded with Spartan Cores to increase its area of effect.
After revealing Chak 'Lok in Halo Infinite, players will need to work on draining the boss' shields. The best way to quickly deplete Chak 'Lok's shields is to use Halo Infinite's Plasma weapons such as grenades or guns. Players can also use the Grapplshot if it is upgraded to stun Chak 'Lok or shoot it at the Shock Coils around the arena when Chak 'Lok is near them. Once his shields are down, players can use any weapon to deal damage and defeat the boss.
Although Chak 'Lok is the first boss in Halo Infinite, he can be difficult to defeat if players don't know how to properly use the Threat Sensor. Revealing his location and draining his shields are the hardest parts of the fight, so, once players get the hang of it, the battle shouldn't be too challenging. However, this will also depend on what Halo Infinite difficulty level players have selected when fighting Chak 'Lok.
Halo Infinite is available for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
