Liberty Buchanan (First Encounter) Fight too Easy even on Hardest Difficulty.

[Matiati]

Ok so I've decided to fight her on our first encounter.

Spoiler Alert!

Killing her immediately finishes the game right away so you won't be able to play the remaining content (unless of course if you reload)

The trick is very simple. Target the cpus of both of her robots so they target liberty and each other instead of your team.

I think this is not intended (because of spoiler). So maybe these robots can be made immune to cpu attacks and hacks.

Yeah CPU-damage and the use of robot buddies (mechanics) can utterly trivialize a lot of fights. Libby's not an isolated case...

That fight is not supposed to even be fought.

You are supposed to be overawed and just toodle off and pass her message onto her dad.

It's been done as you say many times. It's not been designed around how easy it is to do.

When I did it I really expected she would be scripted to run off at low health and maybe drop her gun or something. The end credits were a surprise.

+1 to redesigning it is some way.

you can just bruteforce the encounter though, swapped my team for 6 explosive experts, 5 rockets and the robots were both down, I guess plasma grenade and their enegrgy damage would do the trick too

I heard you don't get the achievement for finishing a difficulty if you take this ending, is this true?

[Bozz 💀]

I feel like the whole game is kinda easy, I never sold any weapon or armor, I have so much money... And I never bought anything except for the 50 cal rounds and some energy cells.... playing on hard, I even did some quests above my level and It was kinda easy...

In comparison to W2 this is a walk into the park xD

[rumpelstiltskin]

it's easy if she doesn't one-shot your team during her forced first turn

[Bastila Shan]

Can you join her though and fight Saul Buchanan together?

Very true, just verified.

Got jumped by her while exploring and actually managed to beat her barely. 😅 then the game ended and I had this bittersweet feeling of relief and disappointment. Am now avoiding that area until later and sucking in my pride at her threats...

on supreme jerk, liberty and her warbots have between 20,000 and 30,000 health. Liberty opens the match with a forced first turn and uses an AOE attack to 1 shot 3-6 members of your party. please post a video of you beating this "trivially easy" encounter.

Did you notice the first posts were from 2020? I agree if you try with a low level party you have to be lucky.
