I'm playing borderlands 3 right now and I just ran into Killa-Volt. Really I think Moxxie just likes her partners heavy.

I only really find the Killavolt quest funny because I’m mentally just thinking to myself about Zane being unimaginably horny for Killavolt and pretending to agree with Moxxi out of shame.

Moxxi: Don't feel bad about killing the other contestants. Anyone who'd want to sleep with that Killavolt..? Well. They're a menace to society. 

Zane, wiping the sweat from his brow, scrambling to try and disable his Echo-Coms with Moxxi: u-uhuh yyeah... yeah! lets uh, lets go with that.

Hey Gearbox,

Why the fuck did you make an early side mission boss so fuckin’ OP?

Love,

Someone who has spent the last 3 hours trying to take down fucking Killavolt and failed miserably each time.

Early Game Boss Tips: Killavolt

KillaVolt is an optional boss fight you'll encounter at the end of Moxxi's side mission "Kill KillaVolt" on Promethea. He's surprisingly tough, so if you're determined to beat him we recommend taking him on when you're at least level 16.

Whenever the tiles on the ground of KillaVolt's arena start to glow yellow, that's your cue to move before that section of the floor is electrified. If you can't get to safety in time, make sure to keep jumping so you minimize your time on the damaging tiles.

With that voltage-slinging suit of his, KillaVolt breaks the rule of elemental damage in that he's always immune to Shock damage, despite the fact that he has a blue health bar indicating a Shock-vulnerable shield.

KillaVolt's sizable shield keeps him well protected, and it can be difficult to get around KillaVolt for a clear shot if he's got a bead on you. Take the opportunity to shoot his back if he presents it, but otherwise, try firing at his exposed feet instead of wasting bullets on his sturdy shield.

The charged-up generator on KillaVolt's back is his primary weak point, but he's also got another sensitive spot. If you heed Moxxi's advice and shoot KillaVolt in the junk, you can deal a special kind of critical hit that's presumably quite painful. Don't feel bad about blasting KillaVolt's groin to bits—he had it coming.
