SPOILER; How to easily kill Legate Lanius once you've engage

Post » Sat Feb 05, 2011 4:25 pm

Load up on C4 charges. One Detonator will bow up several charges(one per time). Let Lanius chase you into the gladiatorial arena(the empty pen next to the tent with a motorized knife sharpener wheel), Put a C4 charge facing the doorway and several more facing the entrance from in side of the pen. More away from them and draw
your detonator. Start popping them as soon as you see Lanius coming through the said door way. He will be blown to bits and you then loot his body and save.

:tops: Same here, I even managed to attract his praetorian guard before he ran down so it was just him and my multiplas rifle. There wasn't much left of him after the first volley.

You know what I did?

I used a chainsaw... Cassidy used a chainsaw... ED-E used a laser weapon...

It was... bloody, to say the least.

I prefer actually speaking to him as well, it's not that he's a difficult kill, it's just nice to get to know him :twirl:

Good. Now do it again when he comes back with a bigger army.

A nice slaughter of your enemy's biggest baddest dude is a good way to demoralize them from attempting to attack you again.

Sneak attack headshot with .308 JSP from a SVD Dragunov, or .50 AP ammo from the AMR for the very definition of overkill :D

And eating his corpse turns Cannibal Johnson hostile.

There's a moral in there somewhere.

Oops, placed my reply in the wrong thread, anyway:

Step up, look into his eyes directly, hear him muttering something about your end in wrong anticipation, unveil the mighty Alien Blaster, think "Sorry pal, that game was rigged from the start", fire 2 shots at his head, dig out his mask from the Ash Pile lying ahead of you, smile. :D

Difficulty you play on is ?


I laid a crapload of mines on the ground, with C4.
Shot him with Archemedies (that just pissed him off, like poking a damn grizzly).
then ran back, he activated the mines.after knocking boone out, then I found after that he was still alive (this guy is insanely strong) and get attacked by him and his praetorians, and then just spam stims and wittlehis health down with my BAR.

I never had a conversation with the Legate. Boone's always with me so there's not a lot of talking. :)
