When I initially uploaded this I was only expecting a handful of people on discord to see it but WOW was I wrong. Thank you all so much for watching, liking and leaving comments. I'm not really a fallout 76 creator, but if theres any other types of fallout videos yall might wanna see from me lemme know in a comment and I might consider doing more. Be warned though I'm not some cracked pro gamer, just a crazy lady with a lot of free time who wanted to share a lil cheese she found out about through the grapevine hahaha
Well the fact that its litterally just a reskinned MOB as a bossfight makes me think he kinda deserves it. Its just an existing mob without legs or wheels. the creative team had no chance.
I know right! I finally had an angel of a friend just flat out give me one, then I had 2 drop in one run. It's almost like the software knows when you finally get a rare or uncommon item you needed, and after it registers you did you get just those! If I get one more Gatling Plasma Calibrated Capacitor!
Thanks for this ! I've seen this done by others, but couldn't figure out where to stand, many thanks for explaining ! Just tried it out and it worked great. Its just a matter of daring to not jump of the outer ring too early, that's half the trick IMO.
Funny, we published the videos with the same issue. Look at your video and when you display the auto-axe, the electric mod is not applied to the weapon. I was uploading a guide for the guardian yesterday for today's date, and upon watching I noticed I forgot to apply as well. After testing with the mod, gave me about 500-600 more hit points per hit, a total of 2650. Great video, maybe this would be the next thing when the platform gets patched. Thanks for the video.
Im on steam not xbox so no gamertag. my ign is MadameMaruchan incase thats what you were meaning. No problem btw, glad to be a help! Milk it while you can because you can't do it on the public test server anymore!
Best ways to do this aswell is have two auto axes one without electricity mod to take out the shield then have one with electricity mod on to take the health out
Dang! Best time I had was 56 seconds and that was by using the limb damage glitch. I don't have the powered 4th star mod like you have though. Well done! I will say that the poison mod with one of the 4 star poison armor mods does increase the damage of the Auto-Axe way more than electrical or nothing at all. That is just from my testing though. Idk why poison does the most damage to a robot, but it just does. And I have run about 1000 EN06 raids and I still don't have the pounders mod. I literally have every other plan, and mod, but I still don't have the pounders.
Best time so far is 38 seconds and did it the reflect way with minigun then shred him with auto-axe after . Executioner for some reason gets me to 4k ish with all buffs once he gets down to the health limit. I do 40-50 second runs consistently other wise if i dont get lucky with richochet damage.
Thanks for sharing this. I tried a few times, but can't get it quite right. However changing my Auto Axe from Anti-Armor Electrified to Furious No-Mod has boosted my damage from 1600 to 2000. I'll just fight him face to face and let Bullet Shield and Ricochet destroy his shield. It takes about 1:30, and i get back more stimpacks than I use.
Do you have pounders on and power attack damage on your axe? If you do and still can't do it, make sure you're hitting the right spot as he comes up. You should see a bunch of white zeroes, thats how you know you're hitting the shield and not just the boss. If that doesnt work I'd double check your perk cards and make sure you have all the good melee perks on. If THAT doesnt work try some food/drink/chem buffs.
@@Maruchannnnnnn Hi: yes, I'm rocking Heavy Hitters and Pounders, and Perk Cards are solid. It's just finding that sweet spot when the Robot starts to appear. Thanks for your help :)
@@jimwest4060 This particular method has been patched. You can still destroy the shield before it can shoot you, but youll need to either stand on top of your power armor or set your power armor down on the platform and get inside of it right after you press the button otherwise you will instantly die to the updated electrical field.
@Maruchannnnnnn oh yes I achieved that much but I just get melted, stimpacks and autos do jack. May be because my endurance is 1 😅 + only 1 troubleshooters no sentinel
ive been looking for this for the last few days thank you. im having issues finding the perfect angle for the shield, ill report back. youre a real one op edit: op have you done this in public lobbies? ive raided with you before, you might have been the one who initially showed this to me
I do this in public worlds almost every day since I figured it out, but I haven't got on mic and told anyone how to do it. But if you watched me do it in game and then found this video thats super cool hahaha Finding the right angle is prob the hardest part ngl. If it helps and you have 2 monitors or screens, you can like, pause the video right when I start hitting and then try and line your game up with whats on the screen. I do that a lot with another game I play when I need to redo stuff that requires very specific angles. Thanks for watching!
You gotta change up the rolls on your auto axe and if he's still not dying, get some melee food buffs or something. He shouldn't even get a chance to attack you if you're following the steps mentioned in the video.
@Maruchannnnnnn i don't have pounders yet but mine is practically the same as yours. I'm meaning if I try ANY other method to solo it the first attack I'm ragdolling.
@@Mighty_Mr_B Pounders and furious combined together is the key ingredient for this particular method. Almost nothing else matters. Something about the way they stack makes his shield melt like butter haha. Good luck to you!
chances are you're too close to the outer ring. The outer ring is an instakill as soon as the guardian gets out completely, try to stay as much to the centre as you can.
Just seen the patch, will not be able to jump on top any more, they have placed an electrical field all over the opening area as the bot comes up,, it's already on the PTS will be in the next patch update.
I dont understand what i’m doing wrong, i have the full setup, with tasty yao guai roast + carnivore but he still has like 20% shield left when i have to move
It's probably just aim if you have the right auto axe with all the right rolls and no mod on it. Make sure you're hitting the shield the second you're able to and don't let off until you start seeing actual numbers for damage instead of just the white zeroes. Just takes a bit of practice to get the spot and timing down consistently. If it helps just aim where I do, but start attacking a bit earlier incase you're beginning a little late. Good luck!
@@gilamonstermotorsports7835 Change from bloodied to furious and get rid of the electric damage thats the problem. Furious and pounders stack for huge damage but furious doesnt seem to amplify the electric mod's damage so its better to just leave it unmodded since thatll raise its base damage.
I have no idea what im doing wrong. My strength is pretty high and im using a pounders furious auto axe without the elctric mod but i can only get him to halfway
Double check youre using the right auto axe, I sometimes go in with the wrong one lol. Also make sure you've got all the melee perks on for damage and whatnot. Can also eat food/pop some more damage buffs. I'd also check and make sure you're hitting the shield in the right spot the whole time. Make sure it's consistently showing white zeroes for the damage numbers and make sure you're hitting the SECOND you're able to. If you're doing all that theres no reason it shouldn't work.
This particular run I was in a life saving, +2 strength, thru hiker, miasma thorn armor set. I've also done it in vulcan with overeaters, powered, thru hikers with rangers. The armor is largely irrelevant. Legendary cards are taking one for the team and then the rest are the special cards
Yeah that's one of the reasons I posted this. Gotta take advantage on live while you still can! Although I've heard people have already come up with a new way of cheesing on the pts, though I'm not sure what it is as I don't go on the pts much.
There's no visual indicator exactly for when youll actually start hurting him other than the white zeroes that pop up. Start attacking in the same spot I am, and just hold the attack button till you see those zeroes pop up. If you waste some ap at first it shouldnt be a big deal. Just gotta play around with it.
It's a grind for sure. Your best bet to get the mod is trading on discord or reddit with other players. A lot of the times you can trade 1:1 4 star mods. Next time you're raiding if you get a good mod like rangers, rejuv or whatever, hold onto it and try and trade it to get your pounders. If thats not possible, just keep grinding. Wishing you the best of luck!
Just doing what I do in the video isn't enough, your auto axe needs to have the exact same rolls as the one I used in the video. Furious, Power Attack Damage, Strength and Pounders. If you have that it shouldn't be an issue. If you have that and are still struggling, I would try popping some food/drink/chems that enhance your strength and melee damage and making sure your perks are set up for two handed melee. If you've done all that and it STILL isn't working, make sure you're hitting it in the right spot the second you're able to. It's a little tricky and might take a bit to get the hang of with the timing and where to aim, but you should get there. Just gotta make sure you're seeing those consistent white zeroes while you're attacking him, thats how you know you're hitting the shield. EDIT: Also make sure your axe isn't modded with electric, flame, poison or turbo. If any of those are on take them off, they lower your damage in this instance since they dont seem to get the benefits of furious.
The raids are fun though! Even without cheese strats like this one its some of the most fun I've had playing. What part of getting into raids has you stumped? I feel you though, another map expansion would be awesome.
@Maruchannnnnnn its more that I don't know how to do them. Like how do I even activate it? Like those brotherhood recon missions? I can never get a full squad together for it cause my only friends all dismiss 76 cause of how it was during launch.
@@Lameloserlmao To start the raid you just walk into the location, you should have a quest in your main quest tab on your pip boy for it. If you dont, just go there and walk in and the quest should pop up. As for finding a team, theres tons of people on market 76 discord that are always looking for more people to raid with. You could also start a raid public team, and wait for people to join you. If noone joins just hop servers and try again, eventually youll get a world with people wanting to raid. Could also join other raid public teams. Best of luck to you!
Yeah no Idea how you're taking the shield down with electric. The damage numbers may be higher when you're hitting him after the shields down but you're def not taking the shield down with the electrified mod on.
@@THEterilike I have been taking down the shield with the electric mod on the autoaxe since the start, so I can get extra damage via the science perks. Secondly, I just stand at the front the whole time (?). One thing that should be made clear is POUNDERS without that 4* mod you will not get the results shown. Before I got pounders (found in a vendor for 10k) I had to use the standard and even with a load of buffs, you would "just" make the kill before you die. For those who do not have the pounders mod, I suggest the following: Jump at the front in the middle hit and hold the axe to his face or just to the left or right so it hits the top of the yellow collar on either side. I found the front wield joins to show good damage numbers. Once the shield is down, step back (do not start to kill the bot) and commit suicide (by stepping back onto the instant death bands). You will be respawned in the area just before the boss bot. Now you can go back in get into the same (up close and front & center) position and (make sure your auto axe is in good condition) spin her up. You will now note the shield is useless, the bot is dying instantly and you can now kill him without having to run to a safe area, just whoop his ass since the room will not heat up unless the shield goes down and you are now way ahead of the shield. Once I got pounders the second round became irrelevant since it increased the DMG by around 1000k (bug?)
@RobertRife-h6w No idea how you're breaking shield with electric. I was doing same thing with science perks, tried low and full health, never could get it halfway down. Would love to see a clip of your method!
@LeeMartinez-j2w Armor doesn't matter in this case, just the axe. Furious, Power Atk damage, strength and pounders. But for this particular run I had a thorn set on with a mismatch set of 1 stars, +2 strength, thru hikers and miasmas. Was a meme set I was playing around with. You can do it with literally any armor. Heck you could do it completely naked as long as the axe is right hahaha
I'm sorry but I'm not entirely sure what you mean. If you're referring to the 2nd star on the axe, heavy hitters, you can just get it from scrapping legendary gear with the same effect, or by trading with other players.
@@jno190 The 2nd star on your armor should be strength if you want optimal damage, but as long as you have the right rolls on the axe, you dont really NEED strength on the armor, it just helps.
@@svsmixer2593 For ap struggles try using canned coffee/company tea. Theres also a food vendor at nuka world on tour that sells agility buffing foods which just means more max ap.
These damage numbers are insane, im only seeing high 700s when im fully buffed, even with +2 on strength on armor , a plus 3 strength aristocrats power attack auto axe and food buffs
@@Maruchannnnnnn I hadn’t even thought of that. Ima be that guy doing what the devs wanted: standing on the side plowing down the shield with my gatplas, ricochet and bullet shield. If I am lucky enough to end up in a group with you while you hover though I’ll die happy 😁
This method should work fine with a low health build. I havent tested it myself though. Not sure if bloodied would work over furious though since I believe furious in particular is buggy when stacked with pounders. If you try it out lemme know how it goes!
@@MaruchannnnnnnI do the same as you but 20% health with uny. I don't take any buff except psycho buff and I'm herbivore. I get the same time and same damage numbers. Haven't tried bloodied on the axe but with pounders being bugged who knows the results. I haven't first to give it a try.
Finally got a pounders mod and gave this a shot. It seems inconsistent. Even with Tasty Yao Guai I can only take the shield all the way down ~50% of the time. But it does technically work. Will mess with it some more this weekend
@@thebearup You need furious as well not just pounders EDIT: misread your comment sorry. You are killing the shield half the time? Might just be an aim thing. Once you can consistently get the right spot you should be able to do it every time. Good luck to you!
With some trial and error, the bloodied mod will work but the damage cap is (to my surprise) lower. I maxed out at ~1720 DMG with bloodied and 2000+ with furious. So that definitely confirms the theory. And yes, the aim is very tricky. Need to start hitting the shield generator as soon as possible, and don't drift at all, else the buff resets. And need to jump just in time to avoid insta-death. Think I prefer the troubleshooters/reflect strategy. It's slower but more reliable.
And that is why I have farmed the guardian hundreds of times using my pounder's auto axe. I just KNOW they will patch it, todd cant let us have too much fun.
I changed the title of the video to have (PATCHED) in the beginning of it the day the update went live. There's an updated guide I posted on my channel if you're interested as well as some other channels showing another new method as well. I do apologize for any confusion though!
Call me a loser, I don’t care, but the Gleaming Depths is only for players who live and breathe video games and their desire to beat the system. These guys must be getting paid to play this.

FYI, the electrified mod does more damage. I'm getting 500-600 higher damage with it than with no mod.
You sure? I just tried it with electric and couldn't even take down the shield.
Yeah no Idea how you're taking the shield down with electric. The damage numbers may be higher when you're hitting him after the shields down but you're def not taking the shield down with the electrified mod on.
@@THEterilike I have been taking down the shield with the electric mod on the autoaxe since the start, so I can get extra damage via the science perks. Secondly, I just stand at the front the whole time (?). One thing that should be made clear is POUNDERS without that 4* mod you will not get the results shown. Before I got pounders (found in a vendor for 10k) I had to use the standard and even with a load of buffs, you would "just" make the kill before you die.
For those who do not have the pounders mod, I suggest the following: Jump at the front in the middle hit and hold the axe to his face or just to the left or right so it hits the top of the yellow collar on either side. I found the front wield joins to show good damage numbers. Once the shield is down, step back (do not start to kill the bot) and commit suicide (by stepping back onto the instant death bands).
You will be respawned in the area just before the boss bot. Now you can go back in get into the same (up close and front & center) position and (make sure your auto axe is in good condition) spin her up. You will now note the shield is useless, the bot is dying instantly and you can now kill him without having to run to a safe area, just whoop his ass since the room will not heat up unless the shield goes down and you are now way ahead of the shield. Once I got pounders the second round became irrelevant since it increased the DMG by around 1000k (bug?)
I knock the shield with electric on. Majority of the time might try wout just to see
@RobertRife-h6w No idea how you're breaking shield with electric. I was doing same thing with science perks, tried low and full health, never could get it halfway down. Would love to see a clip of your method!
what gear you running? 72 seconds was good lol
@LeeMartinez-j2w Armor doesn't matter in this case, just the axe. Furious, Power Atk damage, strength and pounders.
But for this particular run I had a thorn set on with a mismatch set of 1 stars, +2 strength, thru hikers and miasmas. Was a meme set I was playing around with. You can do it with literally any armor. Heck you could do it completely naked as long as the axe is right hahaha
Do it while it last! 😅
How to get two stars?
I'm sorry but I'm not entirely sure what you mean. If you're referring to the 2nd star on the axe, heavy hitters, you can just get it from scrapping legendary gear with the same effect, or by trading with other players.
@Maruchannnnnnn Armors straight
@@jno190 The 2nd star on your armor should be strength if you want optimal damage, but as long as you have the right rolls on the axe, you dont really NEED strength on the armor, it just helps.
Does perk card matter or just the auto axe?
Having the right perks helps but the auto axe does 99% of the work hahaha
@Maruchannnnnnn my only problem is ap for me cuz sometimes i ran out of ap
@@svsmixer2593 For ap struggles try using canned coffee/company tea. Theres also a food vendor at nuka world on tour that sells agility buffing foods which just means more max ap.
These damage numbers are insane, im only seeing high 700s when im fully buffed, even with +2 on strength on armor , a plus 3 strength aristocrats power attack auto axe and food buffs
Pounders...that's the game changer
For this particular method you want furious and pounders specifically because of the way they stack.
@@Maruchannnnnnn going to try tonight thanks!
How you get your auto axe so powerful
Furious, Power atk damage, +3 strength and pounders with no mods.
Is there anyway a lvl 111 can do this or just end game players
As long as you have all the right gear I dont see why not.
@@fuadsimon there are other methods that aren’t quite as fast that you can do and have 60 second runs for sure if you don’t have the exact gear
Furious? Cannot I have AA or something?
You need furious with pounders specifically for this method. Cannot be any other rolls afaik
@@Maruchannnnnnn F.
Well. It’s not gonna matter with the incoming update, we’ll die when we try to mount the bot.
@@user-cz9jf1ec8s We'll all have to go back to hovering over his head with a jetpack, oh the fun xD
@@Maruchannnnnnn I hadn’t even thought of that.
Ima be that guy doing what the devs wanted: standing on the side plowing down the shield with my gatplas, ricochet and bullet shield.
If I am lucky enough to end up in a group with you while you hover though I’ll die happy 😁
Any reason not to go bloodied/unyielding while you're at it?
This method should work fine with a low health build. I havent tested it myself though. Not sure if bloodied would work over furious though since I believe furious in particular is buggy when stacked with pounders. If you try it out lemme know how it goes!
@@MaruchannnnnnnI do the same as you but 20% health with uny. I don't take any buff except psycho buff and I'm herbivore. I get the same time and same damage numbers.
Haven't tried bloodied on the axe but with pounders being bugged who knows the results. I haven't first to give it a try.
Finally got a pounders mod and gave this a shot. It seems inconsistent. Even with Tasty Yao Guai I can only take the shield all the way down ~50% of the time. But it does technically work. Will mess with it some more this weekend
@@thebearup You need furious as well not just pounders
EDIT: misread your comment sorry. You are killing the shield half the time? Might just be an aim thing. Once you can consistently get the right spot you should be able to do it every time. Good luck to you!
With some trial and error, the bloodied mod will work but the damage cap is (to my surprise) lower. I maxed out at ~1720 DMG with bloodied and 2000+ with furious. So that definitely confirms the theory. And yes, the aim is very tricky. Need to start hitting the shield generator as soon as possible, and don't drift at all, else the buff resets. And need to jump just in time to avoid insta-death. Think I prefer the troubleshooters/reflect strategy. It's slower but more reliable.
What is your strength at?
I wanna say in this video it was somewhere around 40ish give or take
They might patch it just like they did the big robots in neurological warfare where a similar exploit happened..
Completely different, neurological bots had zero rad resistance.
And that is why I have farmed the guardian hundreds of times using my pounder's auto axe. I just KNOW they will patch it, todd cant let us have too much fun.
@@COLDFIRE_0284 kinda like how the Enclave PA dudes have zero rad resistance in the third area.. so someone didn't learn the first time.
@ that is a much more accurate comparison, yes.
Bahahahahaha Pounders is definitely getting a nerf
Also the bot...I doubt that in a short time, we will still be able to stand near him...until then, is christmas everiday!...
Just tried this 6 times with ZERO effect. Moved the target all over his ass and ZERO dmg. Is there something you're not telling us ?
When you hit him are you seeing the white damage numbers?
When hitting the shield you should see a bunch of white zeros as he's coming up, thats how you know you're hitting the shield.
You a LIAR....this is pre-patch
I changed the title of the video to have (PATCHED) in the beginning of it the day the update went live. There's an updated guide I posted on my channel if you're interested as well as some other channels showing another new method as well. I do apologize for any confusion though!
already fixed on PTS
Yup gotta enjoy this on live while it lasts. Or until someone figures out a new to cheese it post update.
Call me a loser, I don’t care, but the Gleaming Depths is only for players who live and breathe video games and their desire to beat the system. These guys must be getting paid to play this.
It’s JUST a game. And sorry again, but this has made FO76 less enjoyable, not more.
And so you beat the level, what now ? I highly doubt you’re gonna go back and play it again.
you're not a loser, gleaming dephts is an update for High level players, if you are level 100 or 200 the uodate is not for you, you need a lot of stuff to have a chance of success
You're right in a rude way, you could've just said you don't have the time and effort or patience to grind
@@ezekielHarkonnen00 200 can easily do this raid.
😂
"I highly doubt you're gonna go back and play it again"
My brother in christ I've done the raid over 100 times at this point and don't plan on stopping xD
