How To Beat Outriders' Altered Bailey Boss
Gamers were able to get a fair amount of mileage out of the Outriders demo, but now that the complete game is available, it's time to see the full extent of what this project from People Can Fly has to offer. The critics are saying good things about Outriders, though the PC version fell short of expectations. Either way, the game's length is sure to offer you more than enough bang for your buck, especially considering there's plenty of good stuff you can expect from the post-campaign content.
Of course, not everyone is going to have an easy time making it through Outriders. Some of the game's bosses have proven to be rather difficult, preventing you from making further progress. One boss in particular might leave you shouting a few choice words after each attempt. If you're struggling to defeat the Altered Bailey boss, here are some strategies that can help you come out on top.
Is Outriders' Altered Bailey boss unfair?
If you're having a hard time defeating Bailey after she gets a major power upgrade in Outriders, know that you're not alone. One user on Reddit asked others if they were struggling with elite bosses, while some have encountered a bug that renders the battle literally unbeatable. YouTuber and Twitch streamer Gladd considered her "way too strong," demonstrating just how difficult it is to defeat her. Luckily, there are some helpful strategies.
Gladd recommended a simple "run and dodge," claiming it wasn't so bad once he got the hang of it. Simply keep moving and fire a shot or two when you have an opening. For a more in-depth strategy, TheUntouchableWolf suggests that you "keep your distance" and "dodge to the left" every time the glowing red path appears before you. He warns viewers that if the player is caught in that path and Bailey unleashes her crystal attack, it's instant death. TheUntouchableWolf recommends that you use the two columns on the field as protection against her attacks. His weapon of choice against Altered Bailey is the Voodoo Matchmaker.
Speaking of which, the weapon you equip can be especially important. According to one Redditor, using a turret might actually be one of the triggers for the previously mentioned game-crashing bugs. Follow the strategy above and you should be golden.
