I’ve fought the tank/spider a few times now and every time it’s been a slog. It has some of the more annoying abilities grabbed from other bosses, ex the Eidolon’s stomp, and seems to have the most staggering attacks out of all bosses, or at least uses them very frequently.
With most other bosses, even the more annoying ones like Kela or Profit Taker, I’m mostly thinking about how to play better using normal means to beat the boss… with H-09 I am just thinking to myself: ‘OK, how do I cheese this?’ for most of the second phase.
The hit boxes are very janky on this boss. My recommended build is Rauta Primary and a Stropha modded for gas heavy attacks. You should be able to 1-2 shot each phase with that. You want to be able to get your damage in before damage attenuation kicks in.
If this is more for the “secret boss”, I really don’t like that fight, it feels like it was designed to make meta a requirement. Heavy slam attacks are still useful for this version of the boss, and landing on top of the tank should keep you out of the nullifying corrosive sludge. I still dislike that it mostly revolves around abusing invulnerability to defeat a boss. Armor stripping also helps a lot for this boss.
And I guess for anyone that doesn’t know about that boss yet,
spoiler
Defeating it gives your landing craft a turret Sumdali, and defeating it solo with a Hex warframe will give you a glyph.
Apparently there are another 6 warframes which will get a glyph for defeating the 60 eyes boss solo.
Thanks, really builds the desire to go get the one missing piece I had for the Stropha.
