Daddy Long Legs is the boss at the end of Chapter 1. He is immediately present once Level 5: The Daddy of Chapter 1 begins. The Daddy Long Legs is my favorite boss fight in the game. He's just truly epic. You'll soon see that as he moves around the bottom center of his body will open up and glow red, like that of a carrier and it will drop spiders. This is when you want to shoot it. You'll need to follow it around a bit to get a good angle on it. Because he is so large he covers a lot of ground. The area will get swamped with ants and the spiders that he's dropping so make sure to keep up with your surroundings. If you're playing co-op have one or two of your partners focus fire on the hordes while you shoot the boss or vice versa. Continue shooting the Daddy Long Legs when his weakspot is opened and he'll be dead in no time.
When the DLL appears like this he can't be damaged:
When he opens up to drop minor enemies shoot this red center:
The Daddy Long Legs is found in Chapter 1, Mission 5. Much like the carriers, you simply need to shoot the bay underneath him as he drops more spiders. If playing co-op, have one person focus on the bay and the rest kill the ravagers. Solo, you'll have to hope your AI watch your back as you go for the bay.
