Crystal Skeletons

[『 Matcha 』]

What the actual ♥♥♥♥ is up with these stupid blue skeletons in the temple. Im trying to get to the badass round so i can get the magic missles x4 and these stupid skeletons punish you from shooting them.

Try grenades and/or explosive weapons. It's the best counter measure aganist those suckers.

The crystal skeletons reflect bullets so it is very easy to kill yourself. They are weak to melee damage though. Explosive weapons can work, but be aware that they can reflect bullets fired from a Harold. Keep a bladed weapon handy and get up close and melee the annoying things.

Because of the reflective issue, shooting at the feet of Crystal Skeletons with an explosive gun will deal damage without the risk of having shots reflected back. Rockets, gyrojets, grenade attacks & Tediore reloads can also deal damage to them without being reflected.

Phaselock works too. (If you happen to be playing a Siren).

This helps a lot so thanks

for crystal skeletons use explosive fastball do not shot them at all to avoid bullet reflection

[DocStrangelove]

They're extremely vulnerable to melee (30x damage multiplier) and vulnerable to explosive weapons (2x damage multiplier).

I just finished doing Tiny Tina DLC on UVHM as Sal

I would melt pretty much everyone BUT the Crystal Skeletons

I wasn't using typical Sal gear but my gear doesn't suck in any sense

I had Magic Missle and Explosive Weapons with the Money Shot perk and these Crystal Skeleton guys would put me in FFYL almost every time.

I was able to push through tho because I would kite them or get them all in close quarters situations

I see now that they are bullet reflective

Well crap no wonder I got my butt kicked by them

Next time I will do better

Not only that, they are resistant to elements. NE at least does normal damage to them, fire/corrosive/shock does only 25% damage (on normal, haven't tested that on TVHM/UVHM). Explosive does 2x damage though.

melee! ...or shoot them while mostly concealed behind an object like a pillar

These Crystal Skeletons were blowing through my shield and health within seconds and I was like what the hell?

Turns out it was me who was blowing through my shield and health

Damn

Unbelievable. There is no REFLECTION in this entire game on any other character. Makes no sense to have reflected damage on just one DLC character wtf.. This is more like a bug, not a feature. Moreover.. I can't deal any damage to them no matter what I shoot at them. I'm in fight for life and keep shooting them with everything I have, slag, electric, corosive, so on.. They have some absolutely unreal regen from HELL that's way stronger than any of my weapons. So just Phaselock will deal no damage to them whatsoever.

If you would be able to read and comprehend waht others write - the solution has alraedy been writtne here, but you choose to ignore the obvious: The problem is between the screen and the chair.

As has been said before, they're resistant to all elements. NE and explosive do much more damage to them than fire/shock/corrosive.
