Any tips for defeating three clotters in SOLA area?
To ones who finished all things in the game, you probably know what I'm talking about...

I'm guessing you're referring to "The Amalgamation" I am also stuck on this. I have like 8 guns, all levelled with me, max modifiers, and when I asked about it, everyone just said it was super easy, and their weapons melted it instantly.

This just doesn't seem possible to me unless they're abusing those modded lobbies people are making that max your stats and money and give you hacked weapons. I honestly had to just shelf it at that encounter and come back to it later.

I guess the simplest answer would be to just team up with someone and take them down together, but be careful because if you join a game, and it's a hacked lobby, you'll ruin your save unless you don't mind getting your character boosted artificially.

Use everything that has a status effect other than bleed
shock + fire weapons do pretty well, dont forget your curveballs too
You could probably mow one of them down with a fire machine pistol
and that bigshot legendary does wonders to another
Fast weapons would be the most beneficial (shark Tooth)

Use both cages to reposition yourself & dont get stuck on the stage if your going for heals

aim of the game is to not get too greedy and to dodge like you never dodged before

I completed it with a maiming katana targeting their arms but still blocking frequently.
It took me like 4 tries, but its do able. The perk from HAUS actually really helped here - the one that aoes when you take damage on a ~8 second cooldown when your fury is full - just save that fury for the very end incase you need it.

If one is spewing use another guy as your shield by putting him between the spewer and yourself.

I used the honed +50% crit damage, empowered +20% crit damage, and slaughter +20% limb damage perks on that katana btw. I also used an electrocution module for extra stuns.

kill one of them asap with fury , then run away , bomb , DPS with claw,(critical) run away until next CD, repeat it again, ez win

I know the area is very small, If you play with discipline, it will work

pls dont stay for seightseeing, ztaht is the main issue

This. SkillDiff, I soloed them easily without dying. Don't over rely on range weapons.

Do you know if there is cross-play with DI2? I have it on EGS

hell, just an assault rifle. i went in with only slow melee hitters and peggy. after trying to kill with only peggy an assault rifle dropped. and i just used that to wipe them. very lucky drop, but still, dont go melee against them.

Yes, it does have cross-play, but I am happy to put it on the shelf and come back when my character is stronger.

I waited for a long time for this to come out on Steam, and I'm in no hurry to rush through it. Genuinely a great game.

this is quite literally the hardest fight in the game, simply due to how little space you have to maneuver around the clotters. I did it on my first character after about 3-4 attempts but I have yet to get there again with my 2nd character and I feel since I'm playing with the hardmode card it will be an even bigger pain in the rear lol.

Its funny you say this because my first clear of this fight was with Jacob build around fist weapons, where the more I spammed my attacks the more damage I would stack up. I don't even think I used a single bullet in this fight if I'm remembering correctly lol.

My Playstyle literally bit me in the ass. I mainly use force maim and bleed status effects cause they mostly work on every zombie. Apparently not goober and gusher. Their disappearing act would not piss me off so much but of course you have to throw in regular zombies into the mix.

Right.

Great DLC's, hope we might get third one.

A good head aim with hunting rifle equipped with superior ranged cremator mod will dispose each of them quickly in just few shells. Try to equip also other ranged weapons like shotgun and assault rifle with cremator mod, stunning curveballs like chem fluid and flashbang. Finally don't forget to RUN all the way until they're dead.
