HOW DO I KILL LEVIATHAN!!!???

[BaronMckill]

I have been stuck on this trashy boss for a very, veeeeeerry long while, im almost out of cash and i cant find his weak spot
(ok yeah his blue things on his chest but when you hit it long enough it disapers, so you are then forced to hit his other weak spots wich he only shows for like a half second, i think the point with weakspots in game is that YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO HIT THEM!!! not to mention that his "weak spots" are the only places you can damage him)
WORST
BOSS
EVER

no offense man but the leviathan is so freaking easy....

[NewTroll]

Destroy his 4 weak spots and he's toast. If he just showed all 4 of them to you constantly, then there would definitely be no challenge to the encounter. As is, he's still the easiest of all the DLC main bosses.

you have to kill the Queen worms after he just stops fighting

[Mudpony]

You should be able to take out all but the mouth weak spot easily by hiding behind the concrete barrier. The last one is available to shoot for a longer period of time than half a second when he extends his mouth thingy to drop worms.

If you put the concrete barrier at the edge of the cliff between you and the worms, you should be able to take out the chest and eye spots without too much trouble. Once those three are down, you'll only have the mouth one left. For that one, you will want to clear out the worms, as it is easiest to shoot from the middle of the area. When he extends it, it'll be right above you, exposed, and for more than half a second.

i think i have to be more detailed for you...
Think like this:
He shows his weak spots
i shoot at his weak spot
he turns his head or closes his mouth
bullet misses him and instead hits his body, wich means you deal no damage to him

In short
WEAK SPOT, SHOOT, WEAK SPOT DISAPEARS, BULLETS MISSES
over and over and over...

Are you using something with slow bullets, like an Unkempt Harold, Sandhawk (there's a reason the Swift one is the preferred version) or Fibber? The reason I ask is that something like your standard SMG should have no problem hitting the spot before he moves.

you can hide beside a small wall on the left
sometimes you have to shoot the flying rocks but all in all your protected to kill
2 bluue spots easily
then grab ammo and strafe and kill the worms thenhis last weak spot is above you when he sticks his head out above you

also you have to kill the queen worms

This^ as soon as you drop down run to the left and hide next to the rocks and chests. He won't be able to touch you there. Use an accurate smg to knock out his right eye first which will be facing you. Once it explodes he'll fall to his right exposing the other eye giving you time to blow it out as well. If you can't quite get it during that time just chill in the same spot and take the occasional pop shot to finish it. Then aim for the "chest" eye below when it pops up each time. He'll then rest and you'll have to deal with the worms, then finish off the two queens at the end of the sequence. This is the only time you'll have to be exposed to trigger his animation again. Just run out in front of him and as soon as he starts moving run back to the original hiding spot. His snout will pop out for a few seconds each time, during which you can blow out the last eye and finish him off.

Jump down on your vanquished foe and get the goodies. Once you know the pattern he really is the easiest end boss in the game to nuke.

Hmmm... I've killed him dozens of times in every Mode and never once recall having such an issue. Using extremely slow projectile weapons like the Longbow? Maybe try something quicker like an SMG or assault rifle or repeater pistol (Vladof!)

[Afterdark]

I already know what your doing wrong.First you aim for his heart then his two eyes the last spot is when he sticks his tentacle in the ground when he does that look straight up he weak spot will be in his tentacle above your head.

I downed him first go, no problems - using a Torgue AR which shoots gyrojets. Just shoot up the spot on his heart first, kill worms when you see them, and shoot up the spots on his eyes. When he's blinded he'll start sticking his tongue out, and you can easily hit the spot on the underside of it when it's dropping worms.

What I did, as Krieg, since Buzz Axe Rampage didn't really do much for me vs the Leviathan, was to get a bunch of the worms' HP down as far as possible without killing them, so I could BAR when low on health, then refill with a worm kill. Alternatively, if I went down before I could kill one, they were already low on health so the Second Wind was easy to get. It got pretty hectic, but doing this kept me going long enough to whittle him down.

Except that he shows his weak spot, like, 100% of the time. First you destroy the heart one, almost always visible. Then (after the worms if I remember), he just bend over you and litteraly tilt his head so you can hit one of the eye, then the other.

He *very rarely* do anything else at this state.

Final weak spot, once both eyes are down, is kinda the same: he throw some more worms at you, then his tongue get out and just stay there for you to shoot.

We downed it a lot of time and it's always the same pattern.
