ENT BOSS

[Shadow♥]

anyone know what best gear level should be when fighting him or any tips for single player. i keep dying and i am not sure if its because of gear. i am not really that good at these games. Shroud took me about 20 times as my first boss. any help would be appreciated.

[Shadow♥]

i need it too. does everyone get the drop if playing or just one person? can anyone explain how coop works cause im not really doing coop and know nothing about.

If you guys still need help add me

what I did against the ent was use a melee weapon and killed him using that alone

[ParadoxArcher]

solo

[scavenger]

congrats?
Also, can shoot the legs, that and the fact that once you get his moves down and time the slams fine, then its easy to manage. The balls are like scratches while its the exploders that are the real issue...well, other then when the ent does the mortar

[Shadow♥]

really melee? hmmm . im gonna try a few more times and if i cant do it then i will try coop with you guys.

[Shadow♥]

what level should my gear be?

[scavenger]

anything really, it scales with your gear technically. Best to at least have good Rot protection maybe. If you can roll good then really armor is a secondary goal.
I am killing boss's decently fast and it says my armor rating is below recomended.
I am doing it on normal though, unless there is a special item or acheivmant from nightmare, not doing that lol

ok thanks. ill try that i guess. i did shoot at the legs and got him down but the stupid bomb guys are what get me. lol

Melee is a pointless investment unless you are maxxed out on your ranged traits as well. Several bosses cant be hit by melee and you will be screwed if you go down that route. Just focus on ranged and have melee as a backup. Especially after melee was nerfed. Take it from someone whos level 396.

Would recomend using just 1 gun to handle the boomers, their hp isnt that high but something like the hunting rifle can easily 1 shot them with ammo to spare.

There is also the fact you can't melee the dreamer(<sorta)/nightmare xD, would be neat possibly.

I did it with basic hunter weapons +6, and i was around lvl20. Just focus the brain, stay away from the boss (because of the foot smash). It took me almost 15min, but quiete easy when you understand everything (i did it within 20 tries).

Do you´ve got the sniper? What mods do you have? Fire-ammo from the plunderer is gold worth, buy it.

Stay on range and move in a circle around the ent and fire the sniper with the mod just permanently on the tree. The carbine from the hunter is fine too. Dodge when the adds are near you, so they explode / the explosion will kill the 2nd adds or the boss bombs, groundpunches will kill them.
You really just need to move in one direction in a circle on max. distance around the boss. The adds will die by themself or the boss. Just dodge at this moment.

Buy some ammo packs and oil if necessary.
