Baron of Hell - Weakness & Tips

Mow Down Baron of Hell With Shielded Chaingun

The best way to handle Baron of Hell is to mow it down using a Chaingun with the Shield on. Baron of Hell's straightforward attacks won't get through the shield while it gets staggered by the lead it gets pumped with.

Crucible Also Viable

Baron of Hell is a one-slice-kill with the Crucible. Since it often spawns with the Cyber Mancubus, Baron of Hell can break your tempo and cause you to be overwhelmed. If it is causing you trouble when fighting other swarms, bust out the Crucible.

Run Up And Down Obstacles To Avoid

Baron of Hell runs very fast, but is slow to react when going from obstacle to obstacle. Stay mobile and hop up and down platforms or stairs to keep it disoriented.

Use Ice Grenades To Stop It

If feeling a bit overwhelmed by all the action, drop a ice grenade to temporarily freeze Baron of Hell so you can catch your breath. Use Super Shotgun to rid of it fast while frozen.

Much Beefier Version Of Dread Knight

A Dread Knight

Baron of Hell is the epitome of the Hell Knight series, even tougher than a Dread Knight. They share most of the combat mechanics though Baron of Hell's HP pool is insanely high.
