Isseksok, the Pillager

Isseksok arrives after you defeat the enemies guarding the Arc prison. Use Gwynn's abilities to make quick work of this boss.

If Isseksok runs to get help from other Fallen, take out these other enemies first, especially the Servitors that can protect Isseksok. Once they're taken care of, focus on attacking Isseksok until he's defeated.
