This is THE HARDEST challenge you'll face in this game, period. So, let's talk about some interesting points I used here in my favor.
The Braced Shot ability on the Sharpshoot Bow is great for dealing easy 500 damage, use it whenever you have a chance.
To get rid of the Apex Scorcher fast I am using a Smoke Bomb whenever it is close to the Thunderjaw, then I place a couple of Elite Acid Traps. Wait for them to blow up, then smoke bomb again and place as many Advanced Blast Bombs as possible for big damage. Follow up with Advanced Blast Bombs with the Blastling and once the corrosive effect wears off, repeat until it is dead.
Now, for the Thunderjaw, try to use your remaining Elite Acid Traps while building up the rest of the acid damage with your hunter bow with the charged shot ability. Once it is under the corrosive effect, use all the remaining bombs on your blastling.
Bombs will have the chance to knock the machine down, so if you have enough time, use the Double Arrow ability from your sharpshooter bow with the tear arrows to open up the acid canister hatch located near the 2 weapons. Once open, shot with the hunter bow for extra corrosive damage. Shoot as many as you can, because it is really hard to knock down the thunderjaw and you may not have another chance.
There's an additional hatch below its belly with fire canisters, I explode these ones by one to take as much damage as I can from the burn effect. The rest of the fight is to detach the annoying disc launchers so you can use them against it (or not) and use your remaining Advanced Blast Traps for heavy damage.
Remember to heal constantly and use your valor surge for extra protection against its attacks.
Good luck with the fight!
