How to unlock the Catch me if you can achievement in Deadpool - Definitive Guide
If you're a masochist and insist on getting this done on your first playthrough on hardest difficulty you'll have to worry about the 2nd part of the fight while the platform is in free fall.
Basically if Deadpool becomes highlighted orange and moves slowly, pause and restart checkpoint. You can keep retrying this way until you can beat her without ever being slowed.
Biggest thing to watch out for is Arclight's AOE attack. This is the slam attack. She'll telegraph it so you can either get away or time your teleport so the attack misses Deadpool.
If you're doing a 1st playthrough on hard and want this achievement, best tip I can give is to buy shotguns. Even without upgrading, they will still chew off most of her health. Bonus is they tend to make Arclight stumble frequently and interrupt her attacks.
This boss fight is super easy because Archlight doesn't have a lot of health, and the trophy is easier, because she doesn't use her slam attacks until the second part of the fight. When the fight begins a few enemies will come down, just kill them and then Archlight will drop down. Once the fight begins, attack her until she's at about 50 health, then she will slam down and the platform you are on begins to drop. Once she does this, you are on the second part of the fight and she will start doing the slam attacks. It is a good idea that you wait before going for this trophy until you have your pulse rifles upgraded fully. Once she slams down you can pull them out and kill her within seconds before she even has a chance to perform one slam attack. If you want to do it normally you can save your special attack and right when the second part of the fight begins you can use it on her to kill her instantly. If she happens to land a slam attack, you can teleport out of the way just as she lands. Now continue to shoot or attack her until you complete the fight. Once the fight ends, the trophy will unlock.
Arclight telegraphs her attacks pretty plainly, so when you see her about to do a slam attack, use your evade. If you get hit, there are checkpoints at the beginning and midway through this fight, so you can just reload the checkpoint until you get it. If you turn orange and slow down, you've been hit and should reload the check point. Thanks SpinelesS for the tip.
