[NightWall]

hi im lvl 17 at the moment and playing on hard.

and i make no damage to this boss.
am i doing something wrong or my lvl is too low?

Bosses are weird. When you damage them, they will tank some damage (like 10s of DPS) until they take actual damage. I'm sure you will be able to damage them but you need to DPS them for a bit first...

Dont forget armor. Because of such a crazy amnount of armor it wont take actual damage unless magic. I did it on 15, but was attacking with magic until my comps ate it's armor.

Do you mean this Monster?

[Animalker]

I did it at level 11 through copious bullets, traps, and dodging. I was definitely underlevelled for it, though. Make sure to clear his armour before trying anything in melee I think.

I have the same problem . I'm at level 13 just got a new blue hammer . And I can't even drop one of his shield when I can scratch his health . Does the boss is bugged ?

No this Boss is Probably for Higher levels, you can kill him on low level but not with a Melee Weapon alone

[CorentinPB]

Well either it's bugged either the UI isn't made properly. If it isn't bugged, that means the boss have so many armor that the UI isn't displaying the additionnal armor. If that's the case, you just have to damage the boss until he actually loose shield.

I don't think it is bugged, when I damage the boss at the begining he doesn't take any damage but once he started to loose his armor, he takes damage normally.

EDIT : That applies for the health as well. It can be the same issue.

i think its bugged because i was stuck with the quest giver for a while.
in the end i just drop it to easy and killed him soo i can play with other char

Get a weapon with high armor damage and the best armor damage upgrades and break the armor. After that use a weapon with high damage and the best damage upgrades to kill it. You can buy the upgrade materials from the merchant and upgrade at the blacksmith.

Enjoy

I noticed when fighting this boss that my gun was missing him if I was too far away. I think there is a certain range (for guns at least) you must be within for them to be effective.

Once I got closer to the boss my gun was taking down his armor. I was using a rifle as well, so I'm not sure how much closer a pistol would need to function properly.

I would use my rifle to build up Fury. Then lay a stasis trap and lure him over, then unleash my swords furious attack. That was the method I used to eventually beat him. I think i was level 12 or 13.

Did that one at level 15. You just have to wear down the armor shields above his life bar first, without that you barely do any damage.
So use armor damaging weapons, rifles and shotguns work well.

One of the professor's notes mentions the creature's unusual armor and how it is noticeably affected by poison. Have you tried poisoning your weapons?

I'm playing the "Technical/Assassin" route and this was no different than the other bosses at level 12 or so.

Yes now that you mentioned it I used a couple poison traps on him as well. I'm working on a similar build. I unlocked Phial Throw last night and it's so much easier than trying to lure enemies into the traps.

Did around level 8. Cheesed it by putting down tons of traps down and dodged around shooting him.
