Boss: Billy, The Anointed

Weak Point: His small skull. Use a fast-firing weapon.
Attacks: Homing Skulls (shoot them down), Shockwave (jump over), Leg Stomp (avoid close range), Teleportation (look for purple trail).
Strategy: Move to the stage area for more room to maneuver. Prioritize shooting down Homing Skulls. Jump over Shockwave attacks. Avoid getting too close. Use fast-firing weapons to hit his weak skull. Deal with adds only when necessary for Second Wind or ammo.

Tips

Make Goliaths your main focus in COV groups.
Heckle will evolve into Hyde if you take too long to defeat him.
Consider holding off on exploring Floodmoor Basin further until after completing this mission to handle Side Missions more effectively.
Use a Corrosive weapon against the Badass Tink Sentry.
Pay attention to both floors in the Archives to avoid getting overwhelmed.
The arena for Billy, The Anointed, offers more space on the stage.
