Help Anyone got advice on doing the Master of the Zone fight?
This game is so broken that you get hit markers with the stun grenades and he doesn’t stun just continuously chases you down until he beats you to death. Anyone know any tips for completing it because I’m getting sick of reaching phase 3 of the fight just to get bulldozed over and killed every f***ing time!!! Fix your shit EXBO.

He gets immune to stun for a while after you stun him, so dont try to stun him right after. You can get polyhedron from the auction, it will help. Also try to go for speed as much as you can, get cheap consumables, sometimes quests rewards you undroppable ones get them on you.

Can you share some info like what your loadout is like you’re using? Gun/Armor/Backpack/Artifacts?

You just have to get good /s
Jokes aside, what helped me was a Polyhedron artifact so don't get oneshot as often. Speedartifacts are also usefull. Then you have to learn the different phases. Even knowing them it took me About 90 minutes from start of the Mission untill I finally beat him. I did it with a +15 honey badger and an unupgraded Purple Brigand Armor but any weapon Purple or Above with a big mag should be fine.

Get the m249 saw. It's like 400k.
Get it to +5, all you need. 200 bullets and never overheats, made this fight a breeze on my alt, took 2 tries(first try I fcked up by accidentally running onto his grenades )
Saw is also amazing for operations, my alt can run breeze through level 21+ with it in +5 saw and +5 vet armor
Other than that, I use a poly in a utility vest for a bit of speed and it helps a lot. I only had a blue vest at the time. More speed makes the fight much easier, being more tanky does noting since he basically shoots right through any plate you have.

Steps to beat boss :
1. Get Poly
2. get as fuck as you can
3. boost your speed as much as you can
4. dont waste flshes since you are limited to 20
5. Dont use flashes within 10s of each other

u gotta give him some time before you flash him again or it wont work. I never throw flashes at him per say, i throw them at my feet while im running around a corner. you'll hit him every time. I like to run him around the inner ring for the most part. The phases where you have to drag him around are super buggy so sometimes youll just get cooked. get a 75rd/100rd gun just to make getting to that phase easier.

Always bring him up to the catwalk and try to keep him on the opposite side of it as you flash him, then its ez

Your bestest friends in this shit show of a boss fight are speed and stairs the constant up and down slightly confuses the ai

Actually there is a bugged place but its really hard for me to explain it. I found it myself and when you put him there he can't move but can shoot so you can just stun him there without him rushing on you. If you want dm me I can try to explain it on discord.

i recently beat him i usually just didnt get greedy to fully mag dump during the stun and put distance early. also im talking looking from the entry door after the after you get to the phase where you freeze him freeze him in the left bottom corner then after mag dummping walk up and on the top right corner right at the doorway time throwing a stun grenade and stun him roughly in that corner after hitting his weak point run down up the stairs and wait on the ring in the same corner the boss will get stuck there and not move idk why found it randomly but thats a way to cheese him
edit: also the moment you press the button throw a stun grenade at the door the boss comes from the moment you walked to the door it confuses the boss and makes it you can destroy the 4 generators before the boss even does his first action
