This spotlights final boss is absurd. I need help

I cannot fathom why they would make a boss like this. There's absolutely nothing I can do without nanojack. Sure I could attempt to dodge his projectiles but then I get stunned and I'm a sitting duck. I've had no problem completing Master spotlight up until this one. Any suggestions?

OP's talking about spotlight not story. Wasp on hacked aim, fatigue mod, and last ditched
You don't even need to fight because you can't lose!! 🤣 The continuous bleeding of Necro heals him
He was talking about the SPOTLIGHT, not the act. He meant Waspinator, which is the final boss for the spotlight.
Sorry, my mistake. 🙄 I had misread 😅
I'm talking about wasp. I was able to beat act 4 necro with nothing but maxed 4 stars
the sp1 is definitely challenging, but I'm referring to his normal ranged attacks. They're fast, unblockable, and deal insane damage. I can't even get him to a special 1 without dying
I used Cheetor exclusively and mostly would sidestep his ranged and charge in with a melee and spammed the SP1.
Whatever bot you use, try to stay in melee range. You still have to avoid the heavies and specials but at least you can minimize the basic ranged attacks.
Wait that's a great trick.
But a Wasp low on health has a super deadly attack that can take out bots with 1 shot and then still has that revive in his pocket every time you start over. It can be infuriating.
Funnily enough, OGM with my aggressive tactic helped me clear Wasp the first time despite having class disadvantage
However, I’m surprised no one has suggested Blaster yet.
His interference slows down Wasp's ranged attacks and devastating heavies. By blocking his sp1 you can even come off with more health (if your Blaster is awakened). Keep on hitting him with your sp2 and you'll have him down in no time, though it's impossible to prevent some damage from being received.
Anyways I would recommend Blaster, WJ (with nano-repair), Shockwave, Cheetor, Megatronus (His Relic of Obedience will prevent Wasp from activating his last-ditch repair buff) and Mirage.
Or just reflect all the ranged attacks with Jetfire 🤷🏻♂️
Unblockable range and I think random range speed make it a touch on the tough side to do that.
Tough yes. Impossible no. I managed just fine and I hadn't played for a few months 🤷🏻♂️
besides, most of the time it's just super fast
Exactly. Wasp was the sole reason I took Jetfire and Mirage, no regrets.
Yeah, you're an expert and very experienced with JF though. I wouldn't expect most to be able to do the same.
When it's slow, that's when it catches me out.
I actually only used Jetfire twice until I realised you could dodge 5 times instead of 3. The rest of the times I died miserably and ended up using Thundercracker or Megatronus
Rhinox ended up being my M.V.B against Waspinator. His shields prevented heavy damage dealt to him, his power lock on his heavy kept Waspinator from gaining his S.P.1 too easily, Rhinox is able to nullify Waspinator's range mod and special damage buff with his own S.P.1. And the constant bleeds on Rhinox's range attacks and specials helped negate the last-ditch repair mod's effectiveness. All-in-all it was satisfying and a relief to finally take down the annoying bug and gave me a good heads up and hard reminder when I will finally be facing him in R.O.T.K.
what?! you claim that you were able to land a heavy against AI? how preposterous!
