Killavolt

You’ll come up against Killavolt in Lectra City, when you get to the end of the aptly named “Kill Killavolt” quest for Moxxi. He can be a right pain in the backside though, so follow our Borderlands 3 Killavolt (opens in new tab) guide for some tips.

Captain Traunt

Captain Traunt is the boss at the end of the Athenas planet, and he’s a combination of all three types of heavy enemies; incendiary, corrosive, and shock. You have to fight him in an enormous courtyard with a number of smaller enemies spawning throughout the fight, so our Borderlands 3 Captain Traunt (opens in new tab) guide has some helpful tips for you.

Katagawa Ball

Skywell-27 is a fantastic planet to run around and explore, but right after Rhys sticks it to the man and blows up Zanara, ol’ Katagawa – who you’ve only heard on your comms until this point – emerges in control of an enormous death sphere. Called the Katagawa Ball, it can prove to be a seriously tricky fight if you don’t know exactly what to do. Our Borderlands 3 Katagawa Ball (opens in new tab) fight has a number of tips you can use to get through it.
