Double pulse gun was absolutely the way to go for me, 2 bursts to 75% overheat is enough to pop the shield, but I agree that melee is OP so I had a melee on my shoulder to swap into during stagger, my other shoulder was a rotary cannon to build more stagger just for the melee

Yeah when he runs away and starts sending multiple rockets at you thats when you close the distance and doge rockets and melee into him. It takes a lot of the shield off and you combine with a rocket or shotgun you can stagger him and use the lasers fully charged when he is down

Update: I finally beat boss using recommend build. At least 24 tries altogether, about 8 with video's build. Trick is to learn how to avoid missiles first and foremost. If you can keep your damage under control, you wait for openings to bring shield down, then charge laser cannons, and shoot him. There's usually enough time to fire another volley of (uncharged) laser before he starts flying around and being dick again. But yeah, I still agree - that difficulty escalation is ridiculous. Feels rewarding when you finally get him, but I imagine some folks ain't gonna have the patience.

@DeathMetalThrasher

I'm sure if the shield didn't recharge after you disable it the first time the fight would be a lot easier because most of the fight is like this... deplete shield, stagger, do a lot of critical damage and repeat. All while you're doing this, you're being bombarded with fast homing missle attacks. I do agree for a chapter one boss, it's a bit too difficult. It feels more like one of the final bosses in past armored core games. All the other boss battles in this game I was able to beat in no more than 8 tries with one lightweight build. However Balteus took me over 2 hours and I just ended up switching to a tank build.

Aggression was key with this boss, punk the shields with the pulse pistols and chunk him with 2 charged laser rifle shots. Took me like 6 tries before I got used to the flow. Thanks for the help.

I went with sword as the main damage output, it works well since you want to rush close anytime he does his mass missiles. Phase 2 was a bit more dodgey

thank you......i was stuck on this boss for 2h now.....with your build i rushed through this mission and beat him first try......thank you

I feel you I spent all day afternoon yesterday stuck on him now I’m just grinding some previous missions to try to buy some better gear but now I can’t even beat the AC fight right before him. I guess I’m not in the zone yet this morning.

Thanks for this video. As soon as I changed to this weapon set I beat him first try. The key for me (as others wrote here) is to be super aggressive and stay in his face so he’s right in front of you and you’re landing direct hits when his shield is down. It also helps if you can pin him on the sideline. I managed to melt him down to 1/4 health as he was transitioning to second phase too, so from there I just had to break shield once and he was done

Thank you very much Was finally able to defeat him 🎉🎉

This worked, had some very frustrating attempts prior to this, made it on second try with this build. Tyvm

Thanks for the build this made it way easier

Thank you for the build I used this video to struggle my way through this boss and only after a few attempts did I finally beat him.

This guide finally allowed me to beat him. Thanks!

Oh my god. Thank you so much, I've been trying at him for days now with my own lightweight build, and I beat him FIRST DAMN TRY with this one. This build is amazing, The bubble guns absolutely melt the shield omg

This is one of the best explanations I have ever watched bro ! Nice !!👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

Thanks for the build, It was very similiar to what I was using before but didn't have constant stagger buildup weapons. Did it 1st try with this thanks again

OMG I LOVE YOU!!!!!!! I have been trying everything and couldnt even get close but thanks to you I just blew it up lol Thank you.

taking weapon bay OS and using shotguns instead of shoulders + boost impact+ cq aimassisit works well too, great staggering effect and good damage

Thank u my bro! With my own spin on this I wiped him out in what felt like 1 min on my first try! I've failed this boss over 30 times with multiple builds. For my style I swapped a sword in 1 hand, shoulder rockets, Alula booster, vp-20s generator, and melander arms 011

Man, thank you bro. Bless you bro. I followed this and it only took me two more tries.

thank you, it made it easier then the other build I was using. now I can progress the game

I know the tank legs are a pain but I think they really are the best choice for this battle because of how much basically-unavoidable damage there is. Also, Im amazed not a single video Ive seen on Baltheus has mentioned this but the OS Tuning Assault Armor helps massively in this fight, it can take down his shield with a single pulse and you get 2 charges.

Legend ❤❤❤ 4hrs stuck on this guy, did it first time with your build... many thanks 🎉

How do you get these weapons, I dont have these available in the shop

Yo, the people having an easy time with this boss must be really lucky, with me he always flies just over me, the camera glitches and then super missiles me, combined with the shotgun the attack always does at least 5000 or more damage

Thanks alot. Was struggling with this boss for like 5 hours. Got him at third try with this build.

The fire swipe can't really be back dodged unless you have a pure mobility build. It can however be jumped. The fire attacks that has to be side dodged are the vertical slashes and the flame ground shot.

Thank you, your video guide has helped me betting this pain in the ass last chapter boss

I apologize in advance for the length of the comment and bad english. thank you very much for this video. I lost count of attempts but I'm sure I tried for at least 2 hours. with energy weapons and plasma I always arrive in phase 2 without cures. the boss is not difficult in itself but if it is not dealt with exactly with the right equipment (and with a good dose of luck with the triggers of his attacks) it is really unthinkable. it's not a difficult bos and it's enough that by learning it or trying various equipment you can do it. it's just artificially difficult and I'm very sorry about that. with your build after 3 attempts I defeated him easily the first 1 attempt to see how to use weapons and the 2nd to understand how to move

Thank you it really helped!

Thx sooooo much. This guy was driving me mad. Beat him first time with this build and just kept the pressure on him

This worked! First try with this build after hours of attempts.

It still took me a bit but I finally beat him with your build! THANKSSSSS

This was definitely the weapon set I needed for him, thanks g

I was skeptical, but damn did this build pull through. I was trying for a couple hours switching between weapons I owned, and nothing got me past phase two in a significant way. I was using bazooka and machine gun with hover legs before. Anyways, this was extremely helpful. I also learned more of balteus' attacks because of the video. Thank you.

This boss singlehandedly made me dislike this game for now. Wayy to unfair. Edit:With your setup I beat him first try. Still I think it should be possible to defeat this boss with other setups.

Thanks man. Subbed. It got high stakes for a while. A rare day no looking after my babies. But the more I spent trying ro beat Balteus the more my rare gaming hours were seeeming wasted. Then after 3 attempts with your build I beat the sodrot and rescued my gaming morning 👍. Just taken a nice screenshot of Balteus in flames 🔥 🤖 🔥.

I run melee and what worked for me was to up the aggression. I also made myself more durable. Beat him first fry when I did that. In the 2nd phase, the fire swings work in your favor. They’re very obvious as to where they’re going, so you can easily avoid and get some swings in.

This boss was like lisa... IT WAS TEARING ME APART!!! followed your fit and finally beat it, many thanks

worked like a charm, thanks

Tried it more than 20x fighting this guy. This tactic finally allow me to finish the boss on 2nd take. Thank you!

Literally the build I wanted, but I missed that battery in the shop. Tried beating this hulk without it for hours without the EN to double weild those shoulder weapons until I gave up and watched this. Thanks man

i spend 15 tries on this, with melee and ranged, the shoulders lasers really did the job, thanks

I think this build comes out of all the From inputs on how one should progress. To make my thoughts clearer, if you follow missions and arena/tutorial missions all the way before doing this specific mission, the best weapons to take that shield down and make damage to the boss are the last ones you get available to buy!! So keeping up with the shop might be a good hint of what is to come here. My thoughts are form a new AC player and i am just passed this boss, don’t know what’s to come next, ao i might be wrong on this….but i am a pretty expert on Froms games and most work this way too as you progress through the runs… And is’t not a critic on your work! This build and explanation of the attacks is very accurate and usefull!!

Thank you so much, with this build i did it first try!!

This build made me beat this dude in one try after struggling, much appreciated good sir

Definitely trying this!. I tried soooo many different setups.

After using your set, It took me 7 tries to beat him. A decent chunk of his health went away when I hovered above him while he was doing some flame attack. He had his shield down, so I blasted away. Completely bypassing his mass missile attack helped a lot. Also, his shield bubble is always a sign of relief because you can delete it in no time and stagger him. I also noticed that if he does his missile attack, if you RAM HIM LIKE A RHINOCEROS WHILE HE DOES IT, you can also stagger him and serve a ton of damage right into his face.

I don't ever leave comments but you, I gotta thank you. You the goat

Serious props to this build my guy, struggled for hours on a full agility mech and beat him first try copying your weapons. Mint strategy here.

Been stuck with boss for 1 hour but I enjoyed the fight so much and also the music!

I just beat 'em thanks to your video. I can't thank you enough.

The worst part about the game overall (on PS5 anyway), which is especially evident in this boss fight, is just how badly the game handles camera angles when an enemy is above you. Apart from that though, this boss difficulty is too high and too sudden for this point in the game. I'm hoping the rest of the game has better difficulty pacing.
