Easiest/Hardest raid bosses
out of all the raid bosses in this game, which ones do you find to be the easiest and hardest?

for me, the easiest goes to Pyro Pete-the-Invinicible. because using a shock-damaging Sandhawk literally rips his shields a new one, while using a DPUH (with the Bee Shield equipped) drains his health in a relatively short time.

for the hardest, it's a tie between Voracidous and that huge building-sized Drifter (also in the Hammerlock DLC [whose name escapes me]) that can be summoned by finding 4 totem poles and deposit 20 Eridium. while I was able to barely solo Voracidous in my Maya run, the huge Drifter still one-shots my ass, even when i'm several levels higher than him.

Master Gee can be both easy and hard depending on your gear, and his arena is the reason why I wear the Neogenator Shield, due to his acid pools and the shield giving an 84% elemental resistance.

There isnt a hardest to easiet raid boss, but its your character who dicides the difficulity. Playing Sal=easy mode, playing Axton=hard mode etc etc

Dexiduous isnt that hard, you just need a lot of ammo and patience. Most importantly, there is a sweet spot under the lodge where he cant hit you but you can hit him.
well I haven't started as Axton yet, same with Gaige and Zero. but I will be going through the Pirate's Booty DLC in the next few weeks though

While the difficulty per character may differ, overall I feel that Voracidous is most difficult for all characters and Pete is easiest for all characters. I could be wrong, i.e. there may be a character for which V is easiest and PP is hardest, but I doubt it. I found the dragons to be the next most difficult after V.
I'd say Gee is very class based, since all u need to do is to lure him to the acid pools, u need a skill which is good for loot, or a decent singularity grenade without missing them much.
So i'd say the eaisest class for Gee is zero since he can deploy decoys and be invisible which is the easiest tactic i saw. MoLMF shows it in practice very well.
Gaige however, is a very risky class to go on Gee, since her DT offers more bad than good.

well i'll try that sweet spot out when I get there, since I'm currently equipped with a COM that regenerates my ammo whenever i'm not Gunzerking

You have a vending machine just above you. Try a pimpernel or conference call.
Use the infinity to kill all the savages before Dexi spawns.

For me i think Gee is the hardest because of that shield of invincibility. The easiest is Pete

well I always kill them before he spawn. but I have heard, that those who aren't playing as Salvador and Gunzerking alot, that using a corrosive-based Infinity can help out alot for prolonged fights such as this one. but I might try an Interfacer out

I dont see how an acid infinity will help u there, they r all flesh enemies, so fire will do better.

Interfacer has no scope, and the extra pelletes are slow and disappear after they finish that circle.

Pete is easy if you use scaffold or like I do nade jump onto ledge. Hyperius, now that I've figured out a system is easy, unless I make a mistake during his jumping phase and go down while he has too much health. That doesn't make him difficult, tho, just makes me fallible. Terra was very hard at first and is considerably tougher than Hyperius, but gets easier as I practice. Tried Voacidous once and he seems very tough. Haven't tried any of the others. Everyone seems to hate Gee and they say his drops are pathetic.

maybe on Normal mode being the reason why Gee's drops suck, since he only drops Seraph crystals on TVHM/UVHM

I find Master Gee to be the hardest because of him not having a traditional shoot until dead fight style. Hyperius or Pyro Pete is the easiest since they both kinda just sit and do their thing while you can keep firing on them.
