    I'm a level 35 Brick and I cannot beat this guy. Some people said he never even attacked them, but he's shooting these weird alien needles at me that do tons of damage. What are you guys doing to make him so easy?

    shoot at the bubbles on the legs. Then shoot the eye in the middle.. also please edit your post title with the word "SPOILER ALERT".

    Congrats on making it to the end. The game is outstanding!

    Best Wishes,

    StevenX

    I guess Brick isn't a good long distance shooter? I used my hunter and sniper the hell out of it.

    yea, shoot the sacks in the tentacles. that's why before the fight, the voice talking to you through the game said it's about where you shoot him; not how much. after that, I aimed for the mouth for constant crit's.

    1st Playthrough Siren - Pointed a SMG in his general direction and held down the button and did not move, he did nothing and right before he died he sudenly impailed me with a tenticle and 1 hit KO'ed me but I killed him before my time was over and got a 2nd wind.

    2nd Playthrough Siren - Now he is 10x stronger but I got some insane weapons and class mods, held down SMG button did not move, he was dead in about 20 seconds :D

    It will be interesting to see how my Hunter does when I get that far, my hunter is a lot weaker so far than my Siren was and sniping is not nearly as powerful as a SMG for DPS (yet hope it changes)

    Never shot the sacks on him, didnt even notice them, was going for the eye first time and the mouth 2nd time.

    The boss doesn't seem to hard(haven't got to it) but I know people killed it at level 32, when your health is low use berserk to get it back. And if you get downed shoot the tentacles to get second wind.
