Socrethar begins the encounter occupying the Soulbound Construct.
When players reduce the Soulbound Construct's health, Socrethar's spirit will be ejected from the construct, and a player can take control of it.
The Sargerei then stream into the chamber, and together with Socrethar attempt to regain control of the Construct.
When the Construct's health is depleted when controlled by a player, they are ejected and Socrethar regains control, beginning the cycle again.
Players must destroy Socrethar's soul to complete the encounter.
