Final Boss ruined the game for me.

Use shotguns with lots of damage like grind fragger and assault rifle for distance shooting( to shoot those clones on the side your on then take cover behind a pillar so the other clones form the other side wont hurt you). any power your use to.(i used overcharge for more damage to kill those clone as fast i can) perks celluar armor and fortitude. any others perk you would like

I just used cloak and flare gun. Or course, before the patch there was higher damage. But it still stacks well because you can light him on fire. Only took 15 minutes tops.

good thing he isn't the final boss since there is at least 5 DLC coming in the future, each one I'm sure will have another boss at the end.

It ruined it for me for about an hour which is the amount of time it took me to complete but afterwards I felt very rewarded for completing it. But o boy was a *****y **** for that hour lol I apologize to the people that were in my party chat for that

I agree with your point about wishing you could always be in a group during every part of the story.

As for the final boss, yes he was annoying to me, but not difficult to beat. I know you've already beaten it but in case someone comes in here looking for tips on how to take him out, I'll just tell my strategy.

I used Overcharge, FRC SAW and a shotgun as my backup. My shield was a Respark Regnerator. Essentially all I did was roll around all over the place. When he powers up for the ranged attacks, just hide behind a column. I actually spent most of my time in the fight in one of the back corners rolling figure 8s around the columns back there. When he did manage to hit me (which was rare) my respark had me charged back up fully before he could do it again. I used overcharge whenever I could (though I tried to save it for when my mag was low to get the insta-reload) and just spammed the LMG. Went right through it with no problem, and I'm not the kind of guy who is usually good at these types of things.

I actually had a more difficult time fighting the 99er boss because I kept killing the little flamethrower guys with my SAW rather than just damaging them lol.

He was tough, I'll admit.. but with the nature of the game being "Grind and Find", it's always possible to make your arkhunter stronger and then come back also, I had to change the way I played to defeat him..while I usually pick of baddies from far away with ARs or Snipers, I had to take a guerilla like approach by hiding out of line of sight, then when I'd see an opportunity I'd give him a blast of a high damage shotgun with fire nanoeffect ( that I had found while only EGO level 75).. he really doesnt have much health and is quite predictable

I can't figure out why everyone is having such an problem with this final fight. It took me close to 15 minutes and never went down. Is everyone else trying to stand toe-to-toe with him or something? It is a frakin boss fight after all.

some one needs to make a sign with the picture of the black knight from the holy grail with nim's head on it.
