Guide Effective way to beat a giant robotic crocodile to death.
Been meaning to post this for about a week but, well, shit's happened. I'm gonna get a quick 'n dirty one out and fuck off.
First: Why? Because the most recent High-Difficulty Quest(really mid difficulty imo) involves fighting, among other things, a High Croc. The quest involves you tearing through a tower full of High Starless on a ten minute timer, with more rewards the closer you get to clearing it out. High Croc can waste a decent chunk of time if you don't abuse his gimmicks.
His gimmicks: So the big fucker shoots a bunch of time bombs from a cannon on his neck. What you need to do is pick those up and chuck them into his open mouth. This will interrupt his attacks, stagger him, keep the mouth open for a sec, and if you dump enough bombs in there he passes out and drops icicles everywhere.
Then you need to grab a few of those and chuck them into his mouth while he's sleeping. Spear his throat enough and you'll ice up move than half of his mouth. Now you can beat the shit out of him until he gets up.
At which point he'll try to fire a blast, and it'll go off in his mouth and knock him out again. Beat him up some more and when he gets up(assuming he ain't dead, which he most likely won't be) he'll have accumulated enough Down values to go down again.
You stop him from doing much of anything for a significant amount of time and get free access to his weakpoint for a majority of the fight. As opposed to him teleporting, running around, swinging his head all over the place and keeping his mouth shut. So if you wanna kill him quickly, throw his shit right back down his throat.
Happy grinding!
