Captain Thunk and Sloth Guide
You encounter Captain Thunk and Sloth together with a bunch of other bandit enemies. At the start of the fight, Captain Thunk will in Sloth’s backpack and assist by shooting with his rifle and occasionally throw a molotov cocktail. Sloth will charge her big arm cannon and shoot cryo orbs at you. When her health drops below 50%, she will load Captain Thunk into her cannon barrel and launch him at you. Captain Thunk may lose his weapon and will grab a hammer to melee you.
