The previous boss that became the LightBlade:

Notice something missing?
Who is Obak-Hul? Summoned by Oryx... where do they fit amongst the Hive Pantheon?
I'm excited!

Also, speaking to mechanics the old cheese spot probably won't work because the eyes will stack the debuff until you die.
Seemingly you phase through Boss DPS by...
[spoiler]Killing the Wizards tethered to those eyes, alternating cover spots to reduce your debuff stacks.
Basically, Garden World with a debuff to manage. There are probably 3 to 4 phases with a DMG gate with an eye disappearing after each phase until final phase where Obak-Hul will go berserk like Alak-Hul does in the final phase of Lightblade.
At that point, unless there are Gunbats (and it looks like there are, lol 😅) you'll probably be able to stand on a piece of architecture in a well despite flying aggro.[/spoiler]
Also, it is very likely that the Slab boons will qualify respective Suffocating Terror. Resolve, imo seems to be the best path over Ambition.
[u][b]Resolve Boons:[/b][/u] (Black)
STEEL YOUR NERVES
Using your class ability removes 2 stacks of Suffocating Terror.
UNBREAKABLE WILL
Increases the decay rate of Suffocating Terror stacks.
MOMENT OF CLARITY
Destroying a Sigil Stone will clear all stacks of Suffocating Terror, providing immunity to further Suffocating Terror gains for a period of time.
[u][b]Ambition Boons:[/b][/u] (White)
ARDENT FORCE
Using your grenade ability removes a stack of Suffocating Terror.
UNDYING HUNGER
At maximum Suffocating Terror stacks, your health will quickly deteriorate.
SUMPTUOUS REPAST
Consuming a Sigil Stone will clear all stacks of Suffocating Terror, increasing damage dealt.
Note: The "Sigil Stones" are the little white and black orbs that drop respective each path.
Regardless, in any activity with the suffocating terror debuff you should be consuming or breaking those little orbs for maximum benefits.
Clarity provides temporary immunity to the debuff.
Repast will increase your dmg.
Resolve seems to then, logically, favor survivability... while Ambition favors DPS.
This SHOULD include the Sunless Cell.
It goes without saying, but I'm sayin' it... You should make sure you have each path fully upgraded (Resolve & Ambition) should you want those boons above, if you plan on farming the Sunless Cell.

Some generic stand in for Alak Hul, since he serves the light now Like Novota replaced Omnigul , didn't mean anything though, and didn't have the same soul crushing shriek -
If that spoiler is accurate then it shouldnt be called Sunless Cell. Its a new strike with new mechanics and a new boss. It should just be something new. Sunless Cell was already great, it didnt need mechanics in the boss fight. The cheese could be patched by just raising the height of the lights.

Sounds like peeps will have funs...
