Deathshead won't die

[MattyDMZ]

Is there a bug associated with the final boss fight? I'm talking about after you bring down his shields. I've shot him with at least 12-16 rockets, plus several hundred rounds of assault rifle ammo, plus several laser blasts and the guy just keeps coming. I run entirely out of armor and health in the area and he JUST. WON'T. DIE.

(I'm on normal, I think. Hard at the most. And I've heard that other people have killed him with 12 rockets tops)

I had a simmilar problem, after setting the game difficulty to "Can I Play Daddy" I finally managed to put him down, but it took almost every bullet I had.

(I played the game up until that point bouncing between Uber and Death Incarnant)

Yeah... I hoped to avoid lowering the diffculty, but finishing the game and feeling annoyed about it is better than never finishing at all.

If you look very carefully, there is one spot in that area where you are completely safe from any and all incoming fire. You can then gun him down with impunity. Hope this helps, I know he frustrated the hell out of me.

I'll keep an eye out, thanks man. :)

I figured that was the case, Fauxtronic.

I did kill him soon after I posted this, and didn't have to lower the difficulty to do so. Maximizing the usefulness of the armor pickups and starting off with the harder to use laser while the smoke and fire wasn't so prevalent were a couple of the keys for me.

You missed the part where I said "after you bring down his shields", Ajatuslakko.

And there's also the ''easy'' way...

That's actually the spot I was referring to earlier. Found it by accident. I was down to 1-2% health, running like mad, and accidently fell. Figured I was toast, so I stopped moving...and...survived, somehow. XD

Git gud

Just use the laser cannon and keep recharging

don't fire at him when he screams, he doesn't take damage at that time

First time i was having some problems with killing him got him on 5th try or so
On my 2nd playthrough i just dual-wield AS in rocket mode and he was finished in 15 seconds, didn't even know he is invulnerable during arm rising

Dumb ass fight for a whole game's effort that was squandered by ♥♥♥♥♥♥ developers. What a waste of game potential for it to be ruined by a bad dev team
