![]() ![]() Don't use elemental guns hoping they'll do DOT, but he does seem to take elemental damage normally. When he's slagged it lasts for about one second instead of 8, so don't bother unless your best gun is already slag. Terramorphous can occasionally be slagged but he usually resists it. Sirens should spec away from elemental damage. It's best to not bother with elemental guns, he doesn't appear to take Damage Over Time damage and doesn't seem especially weak to anything. Terramorphous is occasionally elementally charged and will resist the element he shows up as I've seen him as Shock and Fire, not Corrosive yet but I'm not sure. Buy ammo if absolutely necessary, but remember his tentacles drop lots of ammo anyway. Be quick but be reasonable if another player is about to die, wait a couple seconds for them to spawn and use the elevator together. Get back in the fight as soon as possible though, as soon as no single player is alive (or in Fight For Your Life) in Terra's arena, his health resets to max. If two players die, make sure you both get on the elevator at once or one of you will be waiting a long time to get back in. After being used it takes a minute or two (seriously, not "a few seconds" or "a little bit") to shoot all the way up. Like Crawmerax before him, Terra has a slow elevator leading up to him. If you don't hug the cliff, Terra's knockback can often knock you off the edge of the arena for an instant kill. There's also a little niche where one player can hide from some tentacle attacks. Standing high on the outcropping near the wall will avoid Terra's direct attacks. Spread out a bit so he can't kill you all at the same time. There's a cliff face on one side of the arena all players should gun this wall unless running from an attack or grabbing ammo/health (tentacles drop a lot). Use Decepti0n to trick Terra while reviving allies. Note that no part of Terra can be phaselocked, so keep Phaselock for Revives. Abilities that benefit your team over yourself are often helpful, like the ability that turns Phaselock into an instant revive. Kill skills aren't great (but you will have tentacles to kill), anything that requires multiple kills isn't great. Lots of skills are useless in this fight. Coordination is key for doing things live reviving allies Respec your skills You don't have time to type (don't try, you'll get killed and piss everyone off), use headsets or just play in silence. CommunicateĮveryone should use headsets if possible. Save this fight for after your second playthrough to save yourself a lot of grief. You deal decreased damage to targets higher level than you, so even if you have The Bee and amazing weapons, your damage will be drastically reduced if you're level 45 and Terra is level 52. This should go without saying, but it's vital. Even if you take the cheap route, this boss can kill you with a flick of his wrist (tentacle). Like the mission description says, You Will Die. The more the merrier though a team is now almost required so see the tips below rather than hoping on soloing him. Killing Terra is much harder than it used to be with The Bee but it's still a relatively quick way to do it. If you can boost shield recharge rate at all, do it you'll want your shield charged as often as possible, the Bee only kicks in at max shield. Rapid Fire guns like SMGs work very well. You can get The Bee from Hunter Hellquist. Instead try a high Rate of Fire weapon that shoots single bullets per shot (or that fires pellets so close all of them will hit). This means shotguns went from insanely broken with The Bee to being only minorly boosted. The Bee has been significantly nerfed in a recent patch (actually all Amp Shields were) so the amp damage no longer applies to each bullet from multiple bullet weapons (shotguns) instead the damage is split across all projectiles. ![]() The Conference Call shotgun is optional, but shotguns are best for this method, and the Conference Call is ideal. The Bee adds 40k-50k extra damage per bullet, meaning any good shotgun can do over 500k damage to Terra in one shot. With The Bee shield and the Conference Call shotgun, Terra is trivial. It's possible to beat him with a coordinated team, good equipment, proper skills and tactics (or a reasonable combination of the above), but there's a super cheap slightly helpful way to beat him even solo, too. ![]() The intent of Terramorphous is to be a raid boss, something you bring 4 players along to fight at once. ![]()
