A Dam Fine Rescue- Kill W4RD3N is bullschit

[HailToTheThief]

I am the right level for it, but all he ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ does is constantly spawn enemies and regain his shield, people say do co-op but I shouldnt have to do that, this is just awful design. Also wouldnt that be just the same, cuz it doubles enemies?

[Fredericks of Cursewood]

You suck and that is the developers fault?

Any character can solo this at Normal, TVHM, or UVHM. Not that hard once you know what to do.

According to your description, it appears you're doing something wrong which explains your difficulty in killing W4RD3N but it's unclear if you're looking for help - want help or not? If so please give your Class / Level / Mode (e.g. Maya Lv70 UVHM). PS You're correct - the game is written to be played solo although it's also playable in coop - they're the same diffculty. Happy gaming

Its shield will only fill up if you don't damage the W4RD3N - just like your own (and of every other enemy for that matter).
Dealing enough damage usually stops Constructors from spawning in more enemies.

W4RD3N is very easy, the problem is not awful game design but your approch on how you fight it.

There a chest high wall in front of it - use that as cover and hit its glowing eye with your most powerful weapon (shock or non-elemental) and he goes down very fast.

I just did this on UVHM with my OP4 krieg solo.....Not only the boss and badass constructors tough but even the small ones are hard for me to kill....I do believe they are the hardest enemy in the game, but it is possible.....

Warden is easy kill just shoot him with a weapon in the eye

[Duneman]

I'm going to assume that you're struggling with UVHM or OP levels. In that case you can always just fail the objective. Once the Hyperion barge receives the delivery it goes off to the Friendship Gulag.

If you don't want to fail though, just grab any decent Jakobs sniper and go to town on the Constructor's eye. If you do get pushed off to the Friendship Gulag you'll have access to all kinds of handy level geometry to protect you from enemy attacks.

If you're stuck on Normal, and the Jakobs sniper rifle isn't enough of a help, you can always pick up a Rocket Launcher and use that. Places like the Dry Dock can spawn launchers in the chests there.

in the interest of Research, i checked my Characters and found a Krieg that had A Damn Fine Rescue.
in order to get to W4R D3N, i had to get a Technical.
then go through Bloodshot Stronghold then the Ramparts.
picked up some interesting stuff along the way...
what surprised me was this :

the reason being, i can't remember ever getting a Corrosive this early in the game.
then i found this :

also picked these up :

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1310192874
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1310193665
as it happened by the time i got to where W4R D3N is located my Sniper ammo was low.
so here's what i did at the corner where you turn to get to Warden there's an ammo crate.
open the crate, suck up some ammo, quit and restart game. repeat as often as nessessary.
however i got impatient and went with the SMG's and the Jakob's.
i figured the Shock smg for shield then Corrosive to finish it off. should be short work......
nope....even aiming at the eye didn't do much
and of course the Loaders started Spamming.
what finally took down Warden ?
my Jakob's pistol...
if only i had more Sniper ammo.....

The eye is not weak to corrosive though, it is neutral; non-elemental was most likely the best way to go early on.

@ Lord Cyphre : i am aware of your post concerning bots and Constructors.

[Adamka]

You realize that the shield is only in front of him. just kite the bots and go to the side of him. then pelt him with bullets.

You waste a lot of bullets this way. Even more in UVHM. The crit spot is its eye, better to learn and fight the enemy right the first time.

The shield everyone is referring to isn't the bullet-reflecting one in front of the eye, it's the normal blue shield. On any difficulty, a shock weapon obliterares the W4R-D3N's in a handful of bullets. Make sure to take out Surveyors asap to minimize shield regen (i.e. bullet consumption).

Depending on the character, kiting is not always an option, especially on higher diffculties where enemies are starting to mean business.Best bet is to slag+corrosive as soon as any loader shows up.

@OP
Be patient, study the terrain and use it at your advantage. There's no shame in "retreating" to regroup/heal if that gives you a better chance at survival.

[TrippedAndFell]

i suggest either farming bloodshots or going out and doing sidequests for better gear tbh the constructer itself isnt that hard it only is in that friendship... forget the name place

[trukr]

I just run up face to face and put as many rounds as I can to that eye, a lot of times I get dropped to FFYL but when I do I get second wind from W4RD3N. Using the best gun I have at the time.

Zer0 level 14 normal mode

[Exploded_Armadillo]

sounds like your not looking at recharge times on shields and just going for capacity.
Zer0 is a glass cannon, he will drop into ffyl from pretty much anything that hits him once your shield breaks. find a turtle shield with a good recharge time and always aim for crits. also the longer you are in deception the higher dmg you will do once you take a shot, so pop deception, Kitoe away from the decoy and ain for W4RD3N's crit spot. take your shot in the final second of your deception. I reccomend hunting for a corrosive sniper or pistol. as early as possible via vending machines or chests for a maliwan since they have increased elemental rates by default.
