The final stage of Fallout 4's Out of the Fire can be very hard on Very Hard Difficulty. Here is the best sequence that worked for me, assuming you talk Jake into wanting to leave the Forged and he is thereby your ally. The key is that Jake is basically not killable at that point.
- When Slag is counting down from 3, position yourself close to the Forged with the baseball bat and shotgun him in the face to kill him. Since you start right next to him your chances of hitting should be 95% with VATS.
- The Forged with the flamer will likely be coming for you. Rush them and get up close. That will cause them to try to bash you with their flamer instead of torching you with hit. Kill them quickly and do NOT pick up the flamer -- let Jake do that as it'll be the best option (his default is a 10mm pistol).
- If you can kill the flamer Forged quickly enough, Slag and the last Forged may still be dealing with Jake. Focus on taking cover from Slag and killing the last Forged, although Jake will likely do that for you.
- From now on, because of the tight quarters and the heavy hits from Slag, just get somewhat close and keep in cover so Slag can't hit you. Whenever Jake gets up to flame Slag, he will turn to attack Jake. At that point, pop out and shoot Slag. Keep repeating this until Slag is dead.
Lots of food helps but trying to outgun even just Slag will be hard unless you have later-game great gear. I did this on a stealth build (with Shadowed Lighter armor pieces) and an automatic pistol against Slag.
