Theres actually an exploit at the locked off doors that you can use to become stealthed. It only works on the right side of the doors (facing it) where you can see an extra lip. You can hide behind it. I killed this boss on Normal at level 8 using this tactic.
I was level 10, on normal. Take out the 2 sentry watchers. Once the battle starts, take out the rest with shots to the eye while dodging the boss' fire blasts. From there, set up shock trip wires, once he's stunned, run up for the critical hit. I hope this helps you lower level folks.
Some tips: plant your traps BEFORE you release the boss. Put the tripwires across the gaps down to the core, and put traps on the path around. Shoot the sacs on his back and front to make him explode and if you can, try to get under him to knock off the canisters on his belly.
but when the main fight starts new watchers come out and trip everything and destroy the best laid plans. i feel you just need to kill them critters and then just drop traps where you can as you run and gun
The thing is for me i came unprepared.i thought it would be easy since it were level 8 on the quest.i only have 2 tripcasters left 3 sharpshot arrows.and hunter,fire arrows..and i've been stuck here
there is an easier way to do this, it was my first cauldron and was eager to get it uploaded. if you want i can go back and record a 1 minute strategy or less for ya.
What helped me the most was I laid a ton of detonating blast traps and regular blast traps around the whole place and then surrounded the boss with tripcaster wires. all the traps took down the watchers and helped a lot in taking down the boss
Unfortunately when I encountered this boss fight I only had 2 trip casters left. After several deaths I realized you could melee attack after it charges you it self stuns itself for 4-5 Seconds allows enough time for heavy melee
I know this is an old thread, but some waited for the price of the game to drop and got into the game late, like my son and a friend of mine. I bought both of them this game and now they look for tips on UA-cam. Freeze bombs and freeze arrows. Freeze the enemies and you do more damage to them with other weapons. Also, electric shock keeps them motionless and makes them an easier target to hit. There are many different strategies you can use, that's why I love this game.
After being stuck in this cauldron for three days, I discovered that I could make my own bombs. I killed the two Watchers in the beginning, then laid about 20 fire bombs in a big group and hid in that boat-like thing. That beast was dead in an instant!
Dgot my hands on the game just now and i did this on the highest difficulty and died a bunch of times before i realized it was way easier to plant the bombs and tripcasters before overriding the core. Also always roll after the boss casts his fire balls so you can see where theyre gonna land.
Bruh. I'm playing this on Ultra Hard, no HUD & on level 13 I met up with this boss... the watchers can be annoying. Since I saw it was a level 8 mission I was like alright this is easy. Wasn't thinking I was in for a surprise lol.
Thank you for this. While there may not be info from speaking, I was able gleam some tactics from this which came in handy for me which was rolling, shoot arrows, then roll more. :) Up until this fight I hadn't been rolling at all so in seeing this it reminded me I should use it.
Glad it helped you out, but don't roll all the time, try and time your rolls with the attacks. enemies in this game have a habit of shooting their attacks ahead of where you are going. so try reverse rolling and side rolling.
No worries on having over done it with rolling around. :) With how it liked to charge at me there was also a bit of running to get some distance away from it and to avoid it's fire-spread attacks. Before the fight I had tried to use the Shock Wire to block the gaps surrounding it but most of them were triggered by the Watchers that ran in.
Thank you so much, this helped a lot. I was so excited to do this, and didn't expect a boss fight. I just need to see if I really have the strength to do this, I'm really not good with boss fights in any game to be honest.
IDK why I am just getting these messages after 2 years and it's annoying the crap out of me. But I'm assuming you beat it by now so I apologize for not replying back.
Yea it's on easy, I just got the game night of release so I want to be able to help people get through the game on their first try. After I beat it I will jump on the hardest difficulty.
I am sorry for not commentating this to help you more but this was my first cauldron and first run through and was in a rush to upload. I should have put more work into it and i do apologize.

yeah but then the watchers trip the traps before the bellowback does. you need to take out the watchers first then the main guy?
joeyxl3456 of course

LoL same thing here. Very unprepared. A little better with level 10 but the game doesn’t let me craft other ammo (Kappa)
I think I had the Shadow Hunter bow already then.

Thanks for a vid of watching you jump around aimlessly for 10 minutes..
This was my attempt at mocking KacksisHD lol xD

You know the fire Bellowback is weak to Freeze Right?
Just set up the traps and or trip wires before you override the shield releasing the boss!!!

When i play this stage I was hide at the back 🤭 and then I fight..
Good teamwork from Watcher at 2:51
I think my game is broken ... this boss is unbeatable!
I'm doing this part now on ultra hard....and u mm. ...it's ultra hard, lol
Slept like a baby after 4 days of level hard trying to kill the boss.
can't say this fight is not bloody frustrating . Thanks for that walkthrough....the tripwire are my best friends....

it could've been done better. i might try a re run at some point in new game +
Do whatever you want to do, but I think it was done good. I defeated the boss after I watched this, so in my opinion, this helped a ton.
The Fire Bellowback had aimbot Just now!
I don't have any tripcasters left 😑 what do I do ? It's bloody frustrating.. I'm stuck here for 2 days now ☹️
can you make them ?
