[quote name='pete5883']When I torque'd & longshotted him, I'd eventually have to run far, at least partially through the darkness. While I'm running, he'd always either chaingun me to death, or I'd be stuck in the darkness when the Kryll get me. By staying around the one piece of cover near the entrance, I was always in the light, and never out of cover for very long.
I guess going from cover to cover would've been a good idea instead of one long run, but then I'd run even more risk of being in the darkness at the wrong time. All I know is, my successful strategy worked the first time, and I had died at least a dozen times before that trying to win long-range. Plus, you only get 6 torque bow shots if you aren't willing to wait around for it to respawn, and 6 isn't really enough to do anything.[/QUOTE]
Torque bow here is supposed to work like extra grenades. You nail him, it blows the kryll off him so he's unshielded, then you unload whatever you have left into his head. Lancer, hammerburst, longshot, whatever. Combined with active reload, it's probably the best way to handle him.
The question I have for you is: what difficulty were you on? I'm slightly impressed that your strategy worked on him if you were on hardcore, but if you were on casual, it seems like it might actually work...
