The Shielding Phylactery is an enemy encountered in the Borderlands 3 event Bloody Harvest.
Background
Shielding Phylacteries are protective constructs that protect the Gatekeeper in the Butcher Gardens and Captain Haunt. While active they form an impenetrable shield on their target while periodically emitting ethereal shockwaves that damage players.
Appearances
Strategy
The Shielding Phylactery's health is completely Armor, so weapons that deal corrosive damage are strongly recommended given its high health pool. Critical hits can be achieved by directly hitting the crystal orb. The shockwaves can be avoided by jumping over them if both the phylactery and the player are at the same altitude.
