Strategy:

  • Maintain Distance: Ranged characters should keep their distance and continuously fire.
  • Dodge the Grab: The grab attack is telegraphed. Dodge sideways or backwards to avoid it. If an ally is grabbed, focus fire to free them.
  • Target the Head: Its head is its primary weak spot.
  • Utilize Stagger: High stagger weapons (e.g., Thunder Hammer, Bolter) can briefly interrupt its attacks, creating openings.
  • Environmental Awareness: Use pillars or obstacles to break line of sight and create distance.
  • Team Focus Fire: Coordinate your team's damage on the Chaos Spawn to bring it down quickly before it can cause too much havoc.

This boss requires quick reflexes and excellent team coordination to manage its aggression.
