Combat

For all intents and purposes, the Heretic Leader, on his own, is just a Ranger Elite with differently-coloured armour.

However, what makes the fight with him difficult is that he does not fight alone. As seen in the pre-battle cutscene, he creates two holographic doubles to fight alongside him. While these doubles are holographic images, their damage is, strangely enough, all too real.
