How to unlock the Carbon Cat achievement in The Surge - Definitive Guide

Carbon Cat is the second and final DLC Boss, and can be fought during your second visit to CREO World (after getting to the R&D area in main story campaign), there are two distinct phases to this boss fight. The boss is located at the base of the No Data Available area, right after you go through CREO Station.

Make sure you fight it in the Iron Maus gear to unlock the missable trophy Carbon Cat vs Iron Maus.

Phase 1

Not much to worry about. The mechanized monster is in its base form. It will lunge forward, jump to your location and toss debris at you. Side strafing works well and stick to dashing and sliding attacks right after it finishes its attacks. Should go down pretty quick.

Phase 2

After draining its first health bar, the monster will absorb the debris around it and grow to a bigger mechanized monster. It's attacks are pretty much the same just bigger in scale. It will use a lot of sweeping moves that have ridiculous hit boxes. Be wary about that. At times it will create a debris storm around its body. Wait till it disperses, so that the armor will come off for a few seconds. This is a good time for a combo of say 2-3 attacks to deal a lot of damage. Also use your drone to constantly hurt it. Nothing much has changed in this phase except the boss can reach you much easier. Just keep dodging and strafing till an opening is available, and at that point dashing and sliding attacks work well to bring it down.

The final boss of the expansion. I don’t know how it was on the first playthrough, but on game ++ it makes you sweat. I found a pretty simple way: install two drone mods in the implants. Each mod gives a 50% bonus to drone damage. And just shoot the cat! The tactics video is mine.

The boss is very vulnerable to the blaster drone, because... he has no armor. Passed at level 110, NG+. Implants: for energy reserves, reducing energy consumption for the drone, buffing damage to the drone. He hit him in the back with his claws after the boss jumped, only to get energy for the blaster drone. Damage from the drone increased to 250 in the first phase and up to 324 in the second (maximum damage in the second phase can be achieved if the drone shoots while the boss hits with his hand in front of him).

in the first phase, keep at a medium distance and run in a circle (I ran clockwise), the main thing is not to catch the cat’s blow with garbage, in fact, after this action of the cat, jump up to him and hit him 1-3 times, depending on the weapon. You can also add an attack from the drone to set fire to the ground while the cat is standing and charging a blow. I kept hitting one part - I couldn't break it.

in the second phase it is almost the same, but you need to run counterclockwise. It’s better to keep the distance large enough so that the boss wants to charge a hurricane, after which he has a moment of “recharging” with open weak points - this is where you need to hit him. you can also add the same drone as in the first phase. You can still hit after the boss's buckle, but you risk catching the stump.

I passed it somewhere at energy level 55 with level 3 equipment... with more leveling up, the boss is unlikely to be able to do anything.
