The multi-story layout of the area may prove annoying, as enemies will respawn almost as soon as the [[Vault Hunters]] ascend or descend to a different floor. One of the better ways to defeat Midgemong with minimal trouble is to clear out only the foes impeding progress through the area (or use Decepti0n as Zer0 to run past), to quickly reach the top floor. The door is marked on the minimap with a $ sign because Midgemong is waiting inside of a loot room.

Midge-Mong jumps to a predetermined series of locations whenever he is targeted. One way to kill Midge-Mong is to position a character adjacent to the doors of the room Midge-Mong originates from. From this location the Vault Hunter can target Midge-Mong at all the locations he jumps to but he will not jump to the Vault Hunter's position. As his gunfire is rather weak compared to his charge, defeating Midge-Mong from this location is comparatively easy, and possible even if the mission is tough. Vault Hunters can also purchase health kits and ammo from nearby vending machines at this location and it will not be necessary to clear the area of bandits on the way to him if this strategy is used.
Open fire on the duo (they have separate health bars and critical hitspots) until the Bullymong jumps anyway, or at least moves enough for you to enter the bar, where a set of vending machines and a chest awaits behind the bar. Approaching said bar will cause two Badass Marauders to come out the door nearby, so kill them before stocking up on weapons, health, and ammo. When you're done, head outside to face Midgemong.

Killing the midget first will result in the bullymong throwing debris and jumping around. Killing the bullymong first will cause the dismounted midget to shoot from a static location but otherwise move in the same manner as a Midget Goliath.
The Bullymong will jump to a different location very often, and if the distance between it and the player becomes too great, the enemy will disappear, and must be respawned at full health by approaching the double-doors from the outside.

Midgemong won't stay in the same spot for long, so be prepared to move around, preferably sticking to the upper floor, to keep your line-of-sight. As Maya, your Phaselock will trap the both of them, but the Midget will continue attacking. Killing the Midget first will result in the Bullymong throwing debris at you as a form of attack, though he'll continue to jump around. Killing the Bullymong first will instead cause the dismounted Midget to fire on you from his current location, and otherwise move in the same manner as a Shotgun Midget.

From this location the Vault Hunter can target Midge-Mong at all the locations he jumps to but he will not jump to the Vault Hunter's position.

Vault Hunters can also purchase health kits and ammo from nearby vending machines at this location and it will not be necessary to clear the area of bandits on the way to him if this strategy is used.

Killing the midget first will result in the bullymong throwing debris and jumping around. Killing the bullymong first will cause the dismounted midget to shoot from a static location but otherwise move in the same manner as a Midget Goliath.
