Lectra City's second quests in Borderlands 3 can lead to a particularly tough battle, especially in solo, against Killavolt, a sex maniac who likes light drums. The combination of a large shield, a weak point in the back and electrical zones on the ground is a deadly combo.
Fight against Killavolt
- The best thing to do is obviously to go and face this boss in a group, by scattering the players around the room, he will necessarily have his back weak point exposed to several players.
- Using yourself a Shield Converter will make the difficulty absolutely trivial. Unfortunately, they are quite rare.
- Electric weapons are completely useless on Killavolt.
- If you play alone, you can use techniques that can distract him, such as the hologram, a pet or the iron bear that persists for a few seconds after use. This will give you opportunities to go behind his back.
- Area attack weapons such as rocket launchers and large ones can also help to ignore your shield.
- Weapons with guided projectiles can be very effective if you succeed in planting the steering puck on its weak point.
- It should also be noted that if you fire enough into its shield, it will stumble, allowing you to attack it freely.
- The rest of the time, you'll have to be ready to do a side-down to dodge it when it loads you, in order to pass behind his back.
- The many electrified areas on the ground are marked in yellow before being activated. They can take many forms depending on the phase of the fight and the music. The important thing is to move constantly and try to jump at the right time if no escape route is available.
- If you still get stuck, you can always come back with a few more levels and better equipment.
