How did you hit the end of Metal Gear Solid Delta? He is said to be the father of snipers, so the end lives for over 100 years, hardened after decades of battle, leading to a confrontation with a naked snake. This conflict spans several battlefields tests both your survival and combat skills when you take on battlefield legends.
The End Boss Battle is among the best Metal Gear Solid Deltas, and is probably throughout the series. Compared to other Metal Gear Solid Delta Boss in the stealth game, the end knows how to blend in perfectly with his environment, making it a difficult task to track him. We are here to break down all the methods that can be used to defeat your boss and earn his unique rewards and grant you a sniper rifle equipped with tranquilizer darts.
End Boss Guide
There are multiple ways to beat the end with Metal Gear Solid Delta, but you can reward the best with the Mosin Nagant Sniper Rifle, an essential tool for stealth playthroughs. It also has a bonus reward to keep the end at gun points, providing access to Moscamos that regenerate stamina and health when placed in grassy areas.
Here’s how to beat the end of Metal Gear Solid Delta:
- Skip the fight
- A non-fatal approach
- A fatal approach
Skip the fight
By taking him away when he first appears in the Ponizobier warehouse, you can save the hassle of fighting this sleazy boss. The end is sniped from afar, eliminated with a single shot, allowing you to skip the entire battle later in the game. You can find the SVD sniper rifle in Ponizovje West (in the left path before entering the warehouse area), but you will need to pick up this weapon before triggering the cutscene that will first appear.
Alternatively, if you save the game and wait for 7 days (you can skip the time by waiting or changing the system clock a week ago), the end will die in old age. These methods are effective, but you may want to avoid this for a quick completion time as you miss out on the opportunity to receive your boss’s reward.
A non-fatal approach
To get Mohshinnagant you need to ensure a non-lethal takedown. This is a non-lethal strategy, so rely on MK22 to sleep the end. If you choose a new style of playstyle when starting the game, it will be difficult to use this weapon as you will need to explain the falling of a bullet when firing from afar. Non-lethal approaches are fairly easy in legacy style, as your shot doesn’t suffer from drops in bullets.
In this boss battle, the end will try to track you down and move between the same sniper vantage points before taking a shot on you. Luckily, the end doesn’t fire bullets at you. Instead, choose a tranquilizer dart. As long as you keep eating food regularly and replenishing your stamina, you don’t have to worry about shooting hits.
By firing your weapon far away and showing you exactly where you are, you can bait the last to reveal his position. When the end places you in his vision, he spends a little time lining up the shots, giving him the opportunity to find him in the distance. When you have a rough idea of where he is, you should be able to find his sniper glow moving in the grass.
The first thing you should do when you think you’ve found the last is to equip your thermal goggles so you don’t shoot shooting with grass. You can also pull out the directional microphone, listen to the sound of your breath, and get rough indications of where he can hide. When you do damage at the end, his breathing will increase and it will be easier to track him.
Once you find his hideout, you can shoot him from afar, or if you feel truly brave, you can try to hold him with maximum damage at the muzzle, earning a Moscamo in the process. To aim for your weapon at the end isn’t enough to drop a camouflage on him. You need to point your weapon to his head for a long time, and force him to throw a flash bang before running away.
If you can hold him, chase him as he is trying to find a new hiding place. This makes it easier to find him in the future, and when combined with a directional microphone, this method is one of the fastest ways to defeat him.
A fatal approach
A lethal approach is roughly the same as a non-lethal approach, and can rely on the same method to find the end. The only difference is that the SVD is the most natural thing in this battle, but you can use any weapon with your weapon. If you do not pick up this sniper rifle early in the game, you can find it in Soclovenno South, the only building in the area.
In addition to SVDs, you can find pet parrots on the edge of the building, but their locations may vary depending on the difficulty you are playing. Killing a parrot will make the end furious and you can fight more aggressively than before. This makes it more difficult to sneak up on him, but it makes it easier to find him as he spends more time trying to snipe you.
By taking advantage of all three methods, you should have no problem defeating the end of Metal Gear Solid Delta. To keep this boss out of the way at last, you can focus on MGS Delta Raikov Mission before proceeding to the Tricky MGS Delta Prison Escape Sequence.
