Gears Of War 4 Guide: Boss Fight The Pouncer

Developed by The Coalition and published by Microsoft Studios, Gears Of War 4 is the fifth installment in the Gears Of War franchise despite the title. It is the first entry to not be developed by Epic Games. The game is a third-person shooter game and it is currently available for Microsoft Windows and Xbox One. It was released on 11 October 2016.

There are several bosses the player encounters in the single player version of the game. Each one has its own set of strengths and weaknesses. Even the smallest and weakest of the bosses can prove difficult to handle if you are not knowing how to deal with it.

This guide will show how to defeat the boss – The Pouncer.

Gears Of War 4 Boss Fight The Pouncer

This boss appears in Act 3, Chapter 2 and it appears outside the tram station. Be wary that the task isn’t over when you kill the first one as two others will spawn after you kill the first one. It attacks with a barrage of quills from its tail. Then it leaps to another area.

Be ready to dodge as soon as its tail glows orange.

Do not get too close to the creature as then, it will trigger a QTE and you need to repeatedly press B to get rid of it.

Stay behind cover and shoot from there.

A chainsaw or gnasher works best here.
