Loot Goon

Loot goons are similar to Tankensteins, only with a red weapon crate on their back rather than an exploding barrel. When Loot Goons are killed they will drop the red weapon crate, which you can open to obtain weapons and ammo. While they can soak up quite a bit of punishment, they are nowhere near as dangerous as a Badass Tankenstein. They mainly attack with melee or charge occasionally throwing a lightning ball that may daze your character momentarily.

Locations

 * Generally Hospital (Either on the start or the end of the beach)
 * Dead Haven (Either on the other side of the fence when you go up the stairs from the lift or in the centre of Dead Haven where Tankensteins usually spawn)
 * Hallow's End (Outside Pumpkinhead's Patch)

Strategy

 * The easiest way to takedown a Loot Goon is to get behind cover or atop a roof, it will then start "taunting" you and you will be able to get headshots for an easy kill. Also even easier with a Gamble sniper rifle
 * Alternately you can use an incendiary weapon.
