The boss battle with Captain Traunt takes place in the final part of The Impending Storm main quest. The annoying problem with this battle is that there are no stores in the vicinity where you can easily replenish ammunition. Try to collect ammo from the nearby chests before jumping into the hole shown in the picture.

The boss resembles the enemies wearing heavy armor, which you have probably encountered in the previous battles - Captain Traunt | Opponent in Borderlands 3 - Tougher opponents - Borderlands 3 Guide

The boss resembles the enemies wearing heavy armor, which you have probably encountered in the previous battles. You can use the same tactic of jumping and then using a ground pound. Try to quickly move away from the places where Captain Traunt intends to land to avoid unnecessary (and high) damage.

The boss attacks are based on two elements - fire and ice - Captain Traunt | Opponent in Borderlands 3 - Tougher opponents - Borderlands 3 Guide

The boss' attacks are based on two elements - fire and ice. In both cases, the boss has several different skills. They can be divided into two main groups.

The first group is stationary traps and obstacles. They can take the form of, for example, ice barricades (watch out - they can explode towards you) or lava pools. Remember about these obstacles while you are shooting at the boss.

The second group - various kinds of projectiles - Captain Traunt | Opponent in Borderlands 3 - Tougher opponents - Borderlands 3 Guide

The second group - various kinds of projectiles. They can fly in a straight line or be a homing missile. Unfortunately, the latter are more difficult to avoid. Try to alternately run and hide behind all sorts of obstacles to reduce the risk of getting hit by a homing projectile.

On the outskirts of the arena, there are walkers and long corridors that you can use to avoid boss attacks - Captain Traunt | Opponent in Borderlands 3 - Tougher opponents - Borderlands 3 Guide

On the outskirts of the arena, there are walkers and long corridors that you can use to avoid boss attacks. There, you will find enemy soldiers. Remember to avoid killing mobs unless they threaten you directly. They can "help" you in reviving your character (Second Wind) if you get knocked down.

Remember to collect loot after defeating Captain Traunt - you get credits, eridium and new equipment - Captain Traunt | Opponent in Borderlands 3 - Tougher opponents - Borderlands 3 Guide

Remember to collect loot after defeating Captain Traunt - you get credits, eridium and new equipment. You also meet Maya, who, unfortunately, won't participate in the fight with the boss.
