Fallout 4 Most Memorable Boss?

[pjedilord]

So of the bosses in Fallout 4? what is the most memorable boss that enjoy to
battle the most? I think its Bos prime surely? or do people prefer courser?
or Kellogg? So Kellogg is better than courser? or mirequeen?

[DouglasGrave]

I've had probably the most drawn-out individual battles against a mirelurk queen, simply because they're big and tough and have a particularly dangerous acid attack that often requires taking cover.

For multi-opponent fights, the final battle against the Mechanist in the Automatron DLC, and fighting against the Brotherhood during Airship Down in the base game are highlights.

Mine was the Lurk Q when securing the Castle. Trying to defend against her acid attack while Lurks were attacking and those Lurk anklebiters are nuts if you're totally unprepared for what's coming, but oh-so-sweet when you're cursing and used up all your stimpacks and finally down her big ugly @$$...only to find a regular pipe pistol, some junk, and some other crap leather armor piece on her carcass as a reward. But, hey, if you farmed all her eggs, you can pretend you're eating Balut as a revenge.

If you want a good fight, take a pot shot at Elder Maxson.
Institute T1S and T2S are whimps that sound like a bag of beer cans when they break.
RR heavies are kinda tough, if you get one with ballistic weave. I've never had a problem wiping out the RR tho.
Now the BOS... an enemy you can respect! And the loot is epic (if you win, you might not)
MM? ghad. They're Nothing unless you join them. Bethesda had to make Garvey essential so they don't accidentally die out.

One time I survived a fight with the mirelurk queen east of Croup Manor by hiding and eating meat from the babies she sent into a ruined house after me to recover my health.

I love taking a shot at their power cores when they're in armor and backs are turned in my direction. It's sheer fun seeing them try to eject out of their armor just as the PC explodes.

Honestly none of them, its too easy to get overpowered in this game which doesn't make any bosses a challenge at all

[Vic Evicerator]

I think Kellogg is the one I remember most, not so much because he's tough in an objective sense (he's no Behemoth or Mirelurk Queen) but because he's the end of the early-game arc and you're typically under-powered when you fight him - especially if you rush the story arc just to get to the later-game goodies. I usually end up reloading his fight a few times before beating him. Except once - I actually hung onto that Fatman in the armory just before him and hit him with it before the dialog started. That was pretty satisfying.

[Xenon The Noble]

Kellogg is 1.5 x the level of Sole Survivor, but all he has is a .44 and a stealth boy. So if you can do 500 hp with a mini nuke, but you're at level 33 or so, you probably are going to need 2 mini nukes and a lucky shot if he uses the stealth boy.

[Von Faustien]

Hugo is the best boss. plus i hear he made uniforms for the brotherhoods precursor organization

I'm pretty sure Preston is essential so the Minutemen can serve as the default faction in case you screw up everywhere else.

If Garvey wasn't essential, you might shoot him for being an entitled little craven coward and accidentally end the MM right in the Museum of Fake. The commonwealth from Concord to Cambridge is littered with the dead bodies of other fools who fell for his idiotic pitch. "you remind me of the dead fools who fell for my line to join the minute men". He even compares SS to the dead people he's conned before! It's so blatant and so missed by the players they even ridicule the player in Far Harbor via the quests SS gets from Cassie Dalton.

I really don't see it that way, but even if what you say is true, my point still stands. The player needs a faction they can beat the game with should all else fail.

My first encounter with Swan impressed me.

[red255]

fights before level 30 on survival I guess. you get HP every level up and eventually it becomes enough that you can jump off skyscrappers then stimpack your legs and be fine (I took the perk to make my limbs not break but my legs still break when I jump off skyscrappers because bethesda sucks at coding apparently.

Was the bosses better in the prequels?
