Basilisk Armor Removal-- Easy Method!

[@Rage-_-Quit]

"So how much of the player's time are you planning to waste?" Devs: "Yes"

[@Cafearmuire]

One other way to do it (safer but longer): use the "full body" variant of the shield and destroy his armour with a handgun. If your shield has enough health, resistance and regeneration, you will be safe from the attacks of the boss.

[@zjayfi]

that's an interesting way to go about it!

[@Cafearmuire]

@@zjayfi Thanks. Took me a few try although but it helps me taking the time to aim correctly and to not inflict to much damage with misplaced shoot.

[@reggie5904]

hey man thank you ive tried all the other methods and this one worked PERFECTLY he didn't lose a single bit of health while going for the armor

[@zjayfi]

That's a good adjustment!

[@LectricLetus]

Tried this and even with the weakest gun as soon as you break the chest armor he dies in a few shots.

[@4231jerome]

Thanks bro, I got into this game late and this is exactly what I was looking for.

[@slyllamademon2652]

If you ever attempt this, use the blinder firefly.

[@alexcarter3412]

Blinder was very usefull thanks for the tip

[@regohoranyi882]

Legend! Thank you!

[@OccasusRaven]

@slyllamademon2652 Blinder firefly and chem launcher together, u can use chem to slow him down when ur blinders cooldown reset if tier 6 it should be 10 sec only. I almost failed but managed to got him Finally.

[@suspect1996]

If anyone is having any trouble with this challenge, there are 2 of the same enemies. The first one is not the boss. Kill him first then do the challenge on the other one.

[@EvidenceOfData]

Wow. Had to be a surgeon with the 'Ole pistol. Thank you sir👍

[@choodad3137]

Glad I’m not the only one just doing this now after having the game for a while. 😆

[@4231jerome]

Haha yeah man, I’m only doing it now!

[@johnsmlth874]

Your tip saved me a lot of time. Going for two hours on several attempts. Watched your vid and got it done within 15 minutes. Thank you!

[@yasirkhalid9899]

Wow man thx The same thing with me did the all 4 stages but got stuck in stage 5

[@Elijah_Elias]

Tried this and it works a charm. Thanks for the tip.

[@Apottic]

Thank you so much man that really helped! God bless you

I just did it with the oxydizer and decoy (on hard because i was running it specifically for that research), after failing a couple of times trying to do it just as is. Not the way to go imo. The decoy does a nice job keeping the guy in the cloud for the full duration of the oxydizer, which is fairly short. If you don't use something you usually only get about half of the oxidzer damage on him. But after god knows how many hits of it with no armor popping off, i got impatient and just sniped at the pieces. The decoy keeps him from moving too much especially after he tries to swing at it. And i was running a low dmg exotic sniper anyway to level proficiency on it. Plus when you roll through him to dodge the swing and gain some distance he was fairly sluggish and waiting for a short bit instead of full sprinting after me the entire time. So it wasn't hard to hit the shots on the armor and get them all. It does work, but I'd not advise only using the oxydizer unless you got some time on your hands. Because it'll take so many hits you'll wonder if the dmg numbers popping off are just for show and that the armor can't have that many hit points. Maybe foam and carefully shooting the pieces with a scope is the better way to go after all the adds are cleared and you got him solo

[@zowbaid89]

I did this on challenging cuz I felt it would be easier breaking his armor without accidentally killing him since he’ll have more health. It worked better than doing it on normal for me.

[@fabiennegarnier1841]

You can only do it on normal of harder sadly

[@nateb2856]

Late to the video and late to the game but got this second try after this video thankyou

[@LectricLetus]

I've been trying by starting on the shoulders cause once you break the chest armor it's over.

[@esra_erimez]

Great video! Thanks for sharing this!

[@alistairm5775]

This took me about 4 attempts. I took off Basilisk's armour while Flashbanging him. I even left one of the red health'd enemies running around with myself taking cover from that enemy while firing at Basilisk's Armour. I left that other enemy running around because, if I killed Basilisk with 1 Armour Piece still on, Attempt Failed. I didn't have to start the whole mission again. Just let that 1 other ignored enemy kill me. Then it Respawned me back at the gate you C4 to get into the area where you fight Basilisk at.

[@zjayfi]

Even if you kill all the enemies and basilisk, you can still kill yourself and try the area again. No need to leave an enemy alive.

[@wjoshua1]

Just use the oxidizer. It takes a little longer but peals all the armor real easy.

[@Booth1667]

Did you aim the oxidizer l specifically at the armor or just dispersed it on the ground and making a cloud of purple smoke?

[@wjoshua1]

@@Booth1667 aim at the ground and it gets all of his armor pieces off evenly. Kill all the other enemies until it is just you and him. kite him back through the cloud if you can.

[@Booth1667]

@@wjoshua1 ok. Thanks👍

[@SirWolf2018]

It works, just don't do it stupidly like I did (Challenging difficulty, Tier 1 Oxidizer, no Skill Haste). For sure it works, but it took me like 45 mins because of it. (I saw the sun going down and up.) Indeed the Oxidizer targets all armor at once and damages at the same rate. But if you are impatient and start firing, once 1 armor goes down, the Oxidizer will do health damage on the boss, and will die before the rest of his armor goes down. Because of the challenging difficulty, his armor was much higher but his health amount was about the same. Huge lesson learned. :)

[@Booth1667]

@@SirWolf2018 I got the armor off on normal (as it was field research). Lol. Definitely one needs some patience. Thanks for the input👍.

[@SweetGulab]

I did this way exactly and worked like a charm😁. Thank you.

[@7Im8O66]

After 2000 hours gameplay I thought it was time to do it. After I watched your video. Did 3 runs 2 times I killed him. The third time I realized that He also had a chest. So the last part was for me the chest. 🏆⭐️ now I wear my gunner suite 👊🏼

[@zjayfi]

GGs!

[@USMC-es4yy]

Excellent.. tried your method..first try!!!

[@zjayfi]

Awesome!

[@Alva_Lombax]

personal recomendation, run back to the tend, for some reason he loses agro there, and then let him walk to the game, for some reason the AI will make him edge walk, giving you a much better angle

[@kidnamedbarzalislanders2498]

Easiest way to do it. Is use a rifle. The Ar and smg is hard to control the amount of bullets missing the mark.

[@JoelStephen]

I came here because I kept using Chen launcher to neutralize armour.

[@oscaracevedo9380]

Thanks for the tips bud 👍

[@nightshadow3245]

What kind of a weapon are you using and what kind of bullets please get back to me as soon as possible. When you get this message

[@zjayfi]

It's a mark17 rifle. Regular ammo

[@vanandsolaradventures9079]

Still works, thanks very much for this video

[@dacrow6900]

this another method... i wen t with the chem launcher with oxidation took awhile maybe at least 10mins but got him that way

[@sooyeol1]

This saved my PC screen and my keyboard. And anything breakable around me.

[@s0nofanarchy73]

IDK what everybody's on about... I did it with my Thorn, the named shotgun and every piece of armor needs 1.6M to break off, so one shot... I did it in one try.

[@LoneIndigo]

There are two enemies that look alike the first one is the basilisk I took off all five of his pieces of armor but still did not complete it n then did the second enemy the same way n still did not complete it I dont know what to do.

[@boomslangCA]

There's 6 armour pieces. I did it with a Hybrid build (3 Skill tiers) and corrosive chem launcher. Took a while but done in the end. My problem was not killing him by accident during it. Took 4 runs to get it.

[@TheSixStringGuy]

This pissed me off so bad. I killed him by accident and couldn't kill myself before next checkpoint

[@marsflee3815]

I just did all 5 armor parts and it is still showing that I still haven’t complete it. Do you need to finish the map all the way?

[@zjayfi]

No, the achievement should pop as soon as he dies. Sorry to hear you're having trouble, just keep at it and it will work.

[@7Im8O66]

It took 2 shots at his chest then he died!

[@mohammedabbood7062]

I used decoy 😅

[@astar3849]

Thanks, used foam and firefly for blinding with marksman rifl. Took 3 attempts. If you accidentally kill him made yourself straight away and will refresh the stage :)

[@Booth1667]

How do you respawn in the event I accidentally kill him? Thanks.

[@samuelquintanilla6338]

Very nice, thank you

[@bryanaustin8362]

I thought this gives you some big chain weapon when you finish Gunner?

[@zjayfi]

You get the mini gun as soon as you equip the gunner spec in the Whitehouse. Finishing all 5 levels of the project just gives you the apparel outfit that comes with it.

[@beavis4play]

i used the decoy skill and dread edict to knock off the armor - easy.

[@KillaBean416]

What a dumb objective. It’s not even challenging, just annoying. Hate when video games do this. Feels like a chore. Can’t even complete it with randoms cause they’ll just kill him ASAP

[@zjayfi]

Couldn't agree more!

[@connordickert4528]

Was help ful

[@Jk201]

A year and some change bro just to get this .... I want to give you money 💰!!! Thank you so very much

U could have used that money to just buy the specialization

[@7Im8O66]

Just give it a shot, but not with a lot of damage gear. It’s really easy peasy. On normal

[@Cafearmuire]

@@7Im8O66 Correct. Your damage is not as important as your aiming, your resistance and regeneration rate here.

[@angelleltf]

thanks!!!!

[@anrshf]

im new play normal hard to damage the armor instant kill him, ubisoft so stu*** there another one armor on his pants 5 of them

[@ModoTronic666]

This is totally not how to do it. It's even easier than this. Throw one of the turrets out on top of the box in the middle of the area. One that you have to manually fire. Obviously don't use it. He gets distracted by it, he jumps up on the box, and starts trying to destroy the turret. While he's doing that you have plenty of time to pick off his pieces. Sometimes he'll jump off and start running after you but just lead him by the turret again and he'll try and destroy it.

[@zjayfi]

Great. Make a video and put it on your KZbin channel. I did it my way and it got done.

[@ModoTronic666]

Zjayfi. No need to get salty. We're just informing the community on here which is perfectly legal. If you were smart you'd try these and make a better youtube video 🤯

This is perfect cuz I have tamper proof on my armor

[@NotAvailable-sd3fd]

Very helpful thanks

[@ModoTronic666]

@@zjayfi So mad and triggered you have to say it twice? I'm just throwing out my opinion to help the community slick. Just because I have a different option doesn't mean your response needs to be "go make a video then." That's the most ignorant thing I have ever heard. You remember Siskel and Ebert? The movie critics. There were movies they hated but no one said, "go make your own movie!" If you're not ready for someone to criticize your work dont put yourself out there on the internet.

[@MJLouer]

Yeah, this is a big fail. Why? Your teammate will probably kill it immediately. And trying this alone is also impossible. Why? There is always an enemy spawning in that kills you. So again. Impossible...

[@zjayfi]

I did it without team mates. Set the difficulty to normal-- kill all the enemies that spawn until they stop spawning-- then start working on basilisk armor. It's actually not too difficult. Took me 3 or 4 tries.

[@MJLouer]

@@zjayfi thanks for reply. 2-3 times is too much. Im fed up quickly when i must do things over and over again. But hey thats my problem

this isnt the easy method lol

You only have to do it once. I did it once and it worked- so it was the easiest (and only) method I ever used. I'm sure there's easier ways- but I'm not a content creator- I'm just a player with a KZbin channel.
