A Question About Raid Bosses

[🎆​J I П • T Λ K Λ M Σ]

Is beating a raid boss in TVH possible to do without beating UVH campaign ?

[Renfrew]

Yes, what makes you think it wouldn't be possible?

[Linukas164]

Yes, it's a lot easier if you ran trough the DLC after campaign and got some gear, but also possible right completion of the story

[Linukas164]

It also depends if you are doing challenge run, In some of those it will be practically impossible, but without restrictions it is possible

Renfew made good points about the bossfight
If it's possible at UHVM, why would it be impossible at TVHM

Fire conference call would be your best weapon for this fight, prestack anarchy to 400 before fight, use slag, and healing guns (grog nozzle would work best, heartbreaker would be decent), use the bee shield (try getting one with decent amp stats)
Fiber with ricochet barrel (fire also works best) (also paired with a bee shield)
Fire pimpernel works decently well, make sure you also have decent relic and classmod

All raid bosses are beatable, but they all require different strategies, and gear. It is not just a case of going in and shooting at everything that moves.
In TVHM the raid bosses become available when you have defeated the DLC final boss. No matter your level when you did defeat the DLC boss, the raid bosses will be TVHM level cap +2 or +3.
At 51, you should ideally be in UVHM and not worrying overmuch about TVHM stuff. Any raid boss loot drops will be capped at 50, so only usable for a very short time in UVHM.

agree on conference call but I beat more than 30 times and it s not giving me that and i just gave up.Also, the real reason i am asking that cuz I m playing AGAIN with someone this time from the beginning and I wanna beat the raid bosses in TVHM cuz we are doing everything in TVH and beating anything in normal feels meh soo. Then today, I wonder how far we need to get to beat them in TVH.I am playing with Siren with him. Mech was my main and I just came back to Mechromancer and tried to beat Terra to see how hard is that with someone lvl 51 with these weapons or to see can we beat them after finishing all the stuff or will we need to get more lvl and guns. And i can t even beat it with my Mech so it felt ridiculous.ikr it s a raid boss and u need to do and get certain things before the fight but cmon 51 lvl Mech in normal mode and can t beat that? dunno.I think it s a good thing he is playing Gunzerker.I know the build for Gunzerker to destroy any kind of bosses I just didn't play Ultra Mode even once and wondered do i really need to complete it too.

I am not that casual I know these. The reason I didn't even beat one raid boss cuz I want to beat it with 4 man party cuz it s more fun but i don t have any friends.I learned raid boss builds for my main characters and the strategies in order to beat it BUT i said i didn't do anything about raid bosses.I wanna do it now with someone i m playing the game rn. I just wonder how far we need to get for beating an invincible in TVH . And it feels dumb i can t beat Terra in normal with 51 lvl Char that finished everything in TVH.and it s Mech so dunno feels weird.

Oh also I don t care about UVHM i think i finished the %95 of the game and it was enough for me.Also, I couldn't finish all of the missions cuz i played like 5-6 different chars.I prefer to start Borderlands 3 rather than finishing the game 11th time in Ultra.

Lost toppic a bit, yeah... All raid bosses

Pete is easy
Dragons need to be taken down in strategised order, I like: blue purple green red
Hyperious is easy
Gee is easy, you can kill one worm, and after he absorbs it just crouch near the gate or run around the arena (or as mr torgue would suggest, just mash it with a gate)
Dexi is easy, but very long fight
Son of crawmerax isn't too bad
Vermi is tought to spawn, so that can be difficult.
Voracidous can be difficult since it is the most difficult raidboss of all (not talking about cheesy kills)
Hederax doesn't have much hp

All of them can be taken down, but you might need several tries to fully understand the mechanics.

The guns I have mentioned would work against most bosses, however shock would work better against pete and crawmerax Jr.

Vermi and hyperious have high spalsh damage resistance.

Crawmerax is literally the easiest invincible for sure

thanks for answers tho @linas164

[Linukas164]

Terra is lv 50 mission in normal mode, so not beating a boss originally meant to be beaten with lv 50 character with top tier gear, isn't that bad. Conferece call is 1/70 to drop from the warrior, pretty rare I would say, you can beat other bosses in normal to see them and the fight itself, but other than that.... uh..

Anyways, happy vault hunting in Borderlands franchise

@Jin,
TVHM Raid bosses will be 52 or 53, so you do need to be close to that if you want to take them on.
It doesn't matter what your level was when you defeated the DLC main boss. As soon as you defeat them, the DLC will scale to TVHM cap, and the raid bosses will be cap +2 or +3.
Up to you if you want to take them on if you are lower than that, but it can be a real pain if the level difference is significant.
