How to defeat Ultraviolet Joey in Borderlands 3
Before your battle with Joey Ultraviolet in Borderlands 3 begins, there are two important things to keep in mind.
The first is that during the battle lasers will block areas of the arena and pools of corrosive lava will be revealed on the ground. You must keep track of where these traps are to avoid taking damage and getting trapped in part of the map.
Secondly, like any boss battle in Borderlands 3, you will be attacked by a variety of enemies other than Joey Ultraviolet. During this boss fight, this includes enemies like the Meat Slicer, who have double health bars.
First stage
Your battle against Joey Ultraviolet begins when you destroy four Crypto Wolves, while Joey watches from above.
Second stage
Once you’ve taken out these wolves, one of the cartel bosses will join the battle. This could be anyone from Franco Firewall to FISH SLAP!!! Whoever receives will have one health bar and two shield bars.
After you deplete this boss’s first shield bar, he will join Joey on his ledge and a second cartel boss, such as Tyrone Smallums, will attack you.
Defeat the two cartel bosses.
As with the first cartel boss, you must deplete their first shield bar, which will cause them to join Joey and his friend on that ledge they like so much.
Third stage
The third stage of this boss fight begins when Joey (finally!) and the two cartel bosses return to the battlefield.
During this stage, it’s a good idea to keep some distance between you and Joey. Not only will this prevent you from taking unnecessary damage, but you won’t accidentally waste bullets by shooting Joey.
Joey is using the two cartel bosses to power his shield, so you need to kill both bosses first. This means dealing with any special attacks these cartel bosses may have.
Tyrone Smallums, for example, has the ability to change size, regenerating his health as he does so and creating clones with which to attack you.
Once you’ve defeated these two cartel bosses, you can finally attack Joey directly.
Fourth stage
Joey will attack you mainly by shooting you with a weapon that deals radiation damage. He can also create shock energy waves by jumping and hitting the ground or generating them around his body.
Joey will also change size throughout the battle, making him a harder target to hit at times. When Joey begins to grow in size, it means that he is about to send out a wave of shock energy.
Joey attacks you using shock energy.
Try to keep distance between you and Joey during the battle, as this will help you avoid his shock energy attacks and prevent him from cornering you.
It’s also a good idea to use a variety of elemental and non-elemental weapons, because while certain elements, such as Corrosive, are very effective at the beginning of the battle, Joey will become resistant to them as the battle continues.
Luckily, once you defeat Joey, he’ll most likely leave you some Legendary-level loot for you to enjoy!
