How to kill Jackenstein?

[Driftkel]

I'm on Sir Hammerlock's DLC story quest "The Fall of Nakayama", trying to get my way into killing Nakayama, but I have to kill Jackenstein...

I managed to destroy the electrical cylinders on his back, which does damage, but now I can't damage him no matter what... He deflects my shots, resulting me into dying and rage quitting.

Tried the Sandhawk and the Harold with the Bee Shield, but nothing. Need tips on how to deal him.

Look at his chest. Mask of Handsone Jack.

Will open once the 2 cylinder is destroyed.

He has bullet deflection. You have to hit the barrels on this shoulders, and then the one in his guts. The one in his guts is not always "shootable". He will expose that occasionally.

There is also a semi-invulnerable spot in the beginning. I think theres a video (it's a little hard to explain).....

He keeeps moving and I can't hit him hin the chest because he doesn't show, that's my problem. Am I supposed to hit his chests or his arms? I don't understand.

Yah, the last barrel is really hard. You have to break the two barrels on his shoulder. Then, he'll jump away in this dome thingy. After that he'll come back down and chase you around. When he's chasing you around, he'll occasionally expose the last barrel in his chest. Blast the barrel when he does that.

I found out what I was doing wrong, thanks to that video you linked. That's when I was supposed to shoot his chest at the right time. He's handled now.

I fought against Jackenstain in solo last night, I am level 36, my equipment is updated, the best I could find and keep so far.

The problem was that Jack's melee attacks aren't dodgeable, they also become stronger later in the fight, lightning attacks are also used, so your shield goes down quickly; I ran out of money so I was also low of ammo.

I actually think is a meh design for a solo boss fight, although loots are the best I found so far.

THERE IS A BLIND SPOT IN THE MAP: consider the entrance the middle top of the map, go to the top left corner, you recognize you are in the right spot because there is a sort of ramp.

From there, in solo, your opportunity to win are higher.
