Tested it 6 minutes ago. Can confirm: Banshee's weak point is chest.

I always thought aiming for the nipples did more damage. Is it more sensitive if I use Cryo Rounds?

Or to be specific, they seem to take most damage on their pups. :?
I'm actually being serious here. :?

Also, has anyone smashed the screen of the atlas yet?

Thanks for the clarification Brenon.

This thread demonstrates just how inaccurate and useless all of the threads like this are, with players who will tell you that shooting a banshee in the foot does 10 times normal damage, or the equally ridiculous stuff the OP alleged.

Brute
- No other weak points


Wait.. isn't there a loading screen prompt that tells you to aim for the Brute's spine? Or did I read that somewhere else.. I could have sworn somewhere in the game tells you that the Brute's obviously exposed spine was it's weak point.

Headshots work on brutes i've seen :P
Or basically anywhere which isn't armour plated.

Are bosses considered to have heads at all for purposes of the 20% headshot damage bonus evolution?

Just out of interest, where is the weak spot on Ravagers? I tend to go for the circular thing between the cannons, but I don't think it actually doe more ore less damage than anywhere else.

Ok, So can I get some clarification?
Banshee - shoot them in the boobs
Prime - shoot them in the head (red eyes)
Ravager - shoot the front sack then the green part under the sack?
Atlas - The groin plate? For real? Or the Small Windows in the cockpit? This is the one I am most confused by.
Brutes - any part that isn't armored

That was my assumtion but then a dev posted saying you can spike damage on the groin or knee plates....
Also I have heard the cockpit where the pilot *would be* but I have also heard the smaller orange windows as well.

I figured that the turbine on the back of the Atlas was a weak point

You can break the groin plate, knees, and shoulders for small spike damage, but hitting the cockpit with a weapon that pierces (since it seems to get hit twice there) is the best bet.

I'm not sure if it could be tested but if it could would it be worth finding out if even if the Banshee has a weak spot in the chest if that will stun?

When I was shooting them on Silver the only stuns I can remember are my Headshots I can't recall stunning a Banshee with body shots.

If I'm right that might be the pay off, Body shots are damaging but headshots are able to stun I could be wrong though its just a Hypothesis at the moment until I or someone else can test it.

You can stagger a Banshee with any damage, it is not tied to location.

I don't really understand the rationale behind boss enemies NOT having weak points. If Prime headshots are a "bug", and Banshees were intended to have no real weak points, doesn't this actively discourage players from precision aiming? It seems like common sense to have one or two small weak points on a "boss" type enemy.

Actually, on a related note, if Primes weren't supposed to take additional damage from headshots, why do their heads explode if you get the kill from one? Enemies without "headshot" damage don't even have that animation...

What about brutes, or is it just better to keep your distance and spam your shots?

I'm interested in this as well. Obviously the armoured parts take less damage, well for the first shot that destroys the armour anyway, but is there some sweet spot I should aim my Black Widow at? For now I have been just shooting fleshy bits, and since Brutes enjoy turning their back at me, I have a quite nice and wide target right there.

On gold you can knock off up to 4 blocks at brutes, the precise location I am still unsure of.

Could be neck, back, belly.

I haven't really checked because after hearing that all weakpoints were bugs I expected a patch to fix it...

Brute
- Takes reduced damage in the right arm
- Takes greatly reduced damage in the claw
- Armour Plates absorb damage until breaking (best to aim for exposed flesh, probably base of the neck?)
- No other weak points


"best to aim for exposed flesh" --> Dat Ass! Image IPB

I'm almost positive you don't have to hit the prime in his eye. Can be anywhere on his head.

I'm going to say this to finally put this to rest. I looked at the wiki like another previous poster did and the weak point is supposedly the green fleshy area hiding behind the big sac on the front.

Went and tested it out. Shot the sac then shot the green area.

Confirmed. Worked like a charm. Ravager took a lot more damage than shooting it anywhere else. Now you know. And knowing is half the battle.
