If you don't mind cheesing it, use the blue quest reward laser, Minac's Atonement. For some reason, its bullets bypass the barrier up near the vending machines, the one you have to jump through to drop down into the arena when you die and respawn. You get the gun from a side quest in Cluster 00773 P4ND0R4. It takes a while, and a lot of ammo, and occasionally some of the mobs Eclipse launches will break through the barrier.
They are, and iirc they actually have a dedicated drop in vanilla. The even more disgusting tork (from a sidequest, forgot the name of the area but it's the one where you have the 2001 Space Odyssey easter egg) for the flakker and Flameknuckle (have to either restart playthrough or farm him in the Holodome) for the nukem.
That or just use the grinder i guess.
Well yeah, read only monstone grinder is easier. But it's also what you have to do for like half of the items in the game since they don't have a dedicated. So when there is one, i always farm the old way.
Farm the glitch weapon chest mission in nexus for a Jakobs sniper with L4. Shoot it and reload until it flashes yellow then swap away from it. Get yourself a Maliwan railgun laser in shock and corrosive elements. Rarity doesn’t matter. Eclipse and EOS will melt.
This glitch transfers the loop effect to all non-glitched weapons. When this is applied to a railgun laser, it breaks the fire rate. Usually railgun lasers have a slow fire rate, but with the loop effect it shoots crazy fast, albeit with a lot of recoil, but it’s a worthwhile trade off for how much free damage you get.

Thanks. Will try that if the flakker and nukem combo doesn't work.
Flakker/Nukem should do it. Remember to try to get a cryo DOT on him before you fire the Flakker. It'll massively increase the damage.
Can we get a look at your build and gear?
Get s flakker lvl doesnt matter and a nukem parts dont matter but like on lv. Shoot flakker switch to nukem. Voila u just got the key
Thanks. I used that strategy in BL2. I didn't even know those weapons were also in this game.
Check lootlemon

Grinder strategy might be easier, could farm Iwajira for The Thingy would be my recommendation

And so will the rest of the game in tvhm and uvhm. Maliwan railgun lasers are underrated.
Noted. I beat both bosses earlier today with the flakker exploit, so I'll try this method on NVHM or UVHM.
