i think you are talking about the ceph mastermind, that was easy.. :p
i just went to those red supercharging things in the corner, stood there for infinite charge and ammo, put on the armor, took the X-PAC and rammed him, took me 3rd try to find out that... :p

I noticed them the first time itself, but the scumbag always blew them up when I went near them :(
What difficulty btw?

i was playing on the veteran difficulty, first time when i found this, he blew those chargers on after when he first pulls you towards him, but in the second try, i just hid behind that metal barricade covering the chargers until he went far left from the location, after that i just started shooting him with X-PAC, and this time all of his attacks were blocked by those metal barricade, so he was'nt able to blow away those chargers, and i got unlimited ammo and energy until i demolished that scumbag.. :wink:

In post-human warrior, he blows them up no matter what I do. In fact, he ends up destroying most of the cover that is present. The best I can do is hide to replenish ammo. If he comes near my hiding spot I have no choice but to shoot him or it's EMP will destroy my cloak. And then I have to scurry for ammo when the scum calls its minions.

So no, it isnt as easy as you think it is in the difficulty I play in.

And you better destroy the projectiles it forms. Armour is compulsary if you want to take him on.

Do note though. The day I was having trouble, it was at night ~2300 hours and I was sorta exhausted after a pretty 4 hour gaming session (not Crysis 3 for 4 hours lol- 1 hour in that game). Even 4 tries weren't enough.

Next day, when I was refreshed, I killed it on the second try :D

there's plenty of covers and make use of the MG guns lying around and don't forget the grenade launcher of the VTOL. .. when I had to fight with this baddass all I used was typhoon and dsg sniper and not to mention the nade launcher and after taking the baddass alien down I discovered there was MGs lying around ;-)

Extreme Gamer , then how many bullets it takes to kill him ?

Almost none, lol. Use the Ceph energy modules for unlimited ammo and armour. BTW shoot in the glowing parts if you want to kill him. Basically turn their weapons against them- it works.

I killed him finally, :p .
Found out that there was a sort of Canon lying around.It helped me kill him faster. Also used the CB arrows and GL VTOL.

Yeah. I found a Canon around there, that was very useful. :)
BTW , I didn't knew if it was possible to hack them. I will replay that mission.

fought the ceph mastermind and died after a brief battle. he took 3 RPG shots like it was nothing. have a .50 cal at my disposal (VTOL's side mounted gun) so that should ease the pressure. it looks more like a survival as there is almost no cover and whatever little bit of protective slabs were there are destroyed systematically.

Have you tried the Canons and Pinch Guns ?? They seem to be quite effective against him. And he is really a bad-a$$ .
