Easiest Way To Kill A Juggernaut?

[Vaizis]

What is the easiest way to kill a juggernaut? Excalibro does not work anymore.

[(XBOX)TheMadCash]

Wait for it to do a "ground pound I guess u can call it" & it reveals it's belly. Shoot it right in the orange spot for maximum dmg

[PhoenixTheMeh]

I find Mirage(x5) + Kohm modded for fire rate and multishot works well. With so much armour, the damage doesn't matter as much, but the hit count makes a big difference.

[ThePredicament]

The one and only big game hunter: Tigris. Double barrel blast to the belly fells large beasts with ease.

[(PSN)robotwars7]

there's 2 ways to effectively kill a Juggernaut.

 

- wait for it to raise it's front legs to perform a Ground attack, it will expose the glowing Crit spot on it's belly. one good shot from a Tigris or other powerful weapon will seriously hurt it.

 

- there is another Crit Spot on the top of it's back, inside the mouth. if you can get high enough, you can more effectively shoot it from above, ideally with a good long range weapon like a Dread. i prefer this Tactic on the Juggernaut Behemoths since this Crit spot becomes huge and their ground attacks are devastatingly wide.

Just go one-shot it with a Molecular Prime + Sancti Tigris. It's literally a one-shot kill for Juggernauts. Back or belly. I just walk right up to it, shove the pointy-end of my double barrel in it's mouth and gently squeeze the trigger. *POP!* goes the Juggernaut.

(This same set up also one-shots each of Lephantis' three weak spots while Primed. Haven't tried it on any other bosses yet.)

One lucky occasion, I ran into the juggernaut when I was on my chroma with vex armor up and damage buffs in effect. Juggernaut reared up on its hind legs, I whipped out a corrosive lex prime and one shot it.

You can also just cover him with Torid clouds, once a weak spot opens up they'll shred him to bits.

Get a augumented ash or banshee, decast armor, 1hit this mf when he's vulnerable.

How about level 80 Juggernaut during Sortie Extermination. I hit him with Molecular Prime then 3 forma Sancti Tigris to the belly when he reared up and I might as well have sneezed on him. Only took about 10% of his HP...

Banshee can oneshot even 105 lvl Juggernaut with something like Dread or Lanka. And sonar of course.

Nice I'll give it a try next time, thanks.

[ShinraBansho]

Forced juggernaut in sorties is just horrible, there are only specific loadouts that can actually reliably do damage and god forbid if you are playing solo you might as well abandon and restart with a squad because theres no point even trying to bait and kill it alone.

[-CdG-Zilchy]

I was solo lol. I thought a Nova with MP and Sancti Tigris might make a dent. I was wrong. His return fire which actually missed me as I dodged(the spines) was an insta-death despite 500 energy and Quick Thinking. Reloaded and didn't draw him out the second time. Ridiculous enemy in a Sortie Exterminate.

Out of curiosity, has anyone tried the Trinity WoL/Energy Vamp combo?

[(PSN)Cwellann]

Yes.

 

It restores him to max health.

Hydroid and a decently modded sniper rifle will make 'em a joke. Just stand a bit away from it, wait for it to do it shotgun-needle attack. Right before the attack executes the back opens up, shoot there then immediately hit 3 and the needles will pass harmlessly through you. If it looks like it's going to ram, just hit your 2 as it starts and you'll pass harmlessly though the Juggernaut and be pretty much perfectly spaced. If it rears up to do its stomp+summon allies shoot it in its big glowing belly which, IIRC, will prevent it from laying down its tar field and summoning allies... and it doesn't, just cast your 1 on it and kill the summoned enemies while it's pinned in place (it'll curl into a ball as long as it's being hit by your 1 so you can keep it immobilized as long as you need).

 

If it does its poison cloud attack, either wait it out with your 3 or use your 2 to move away or through it as you need. The thing's pretty much a pushover.

I find the easiest ( and to my surprise fun ) way to best a Juggernaut is to bring a well modded Ignis to the fight.*Inb4 DE nerfs it..(again)*

 

Mod with fire damage, fire status chance mods ,damage mods (I know that part is basic but...) and for maximum fun, max out sinister reach on it, might take a few forma, but I find it works, (Though i'm sure its next to useless on a sortie one..bullet sponges)

 

Mirage (Well modded as well) and Hall Of Malevolence augment optional.
