Yeah, I was just going to ask about this. At first I thought you should hit the switch right after he shoots a fireball down that path, but it doesn't always seem to work.MrMonkeyMan wrote:[The train boss is another section that bothers me. I just can't see any way of predicting which tracks the boss is going to jump to. It feels completely random to me, and it's annoying when the boss is simply never on the same tracks as the train cars.
I also just rush the fist fight, knock him into the air, hit him again, then he falls further away. Then I dash up to him and start a combo right around when I see his elbow bending up. I still seem to get hit a couple times. It's actually my least favorite boss, although the first two forms are great.
First form -- remember you can slash the bird quills. Hardest part is a teleport-slash move when she's low on health, but I think there's a brief moment when you can hit her with the sword.hermosaguy wrote:Anyone have any tips for ariana, I'm about ready to put my foot through my tv.
Second form -- it's important to watch her animation to see which of the close range attacks she'll do next so you can anticipate when to dodge. Hit her with a charge shot to cancel an attack and then keep shooting her as she falls into the water. I think you can also counter all her attacks with the sword
When the spikes start coming down I just clear out the ones in the middle so I have enough room to dodge. You can also counter her attacks with the sword if there isn't enough room. Maybe you can keep doing this to milk the spikes (do you do this, MrMonkeyMan? Your stage 4 score is impressive... I only have like 40 mil).
When the birds appear immediately go touch a blue one for slow mo (you don't need to slash it).
She'll summon a giant rock when low on health. Wait until it's really close and then do a three-hit sword combo.
It's asking if you want to upload your score.guigui wrote:-What is the question asked between each stage ? I answer no because answering yes just takes a lot of time for nothing...
It's also a good way to take out popcorn enemies that take more than one hit to kill, by tapping the lock-on somewhat rapidly (but not so rapidly that you de-select before the enemy dies).jeremycarrier wrote:The large red circle usually means you pressed A to lock on to something. This helps when you want to deflect something, but your main gun does half damage, so don't rely on it.
For Kachi, her regular shot is 'sticky' and automatically locks onto enemies within the outer circle of her reticule until they die or leave the screen. This does NOT do less damage. Just use the A-button lock-on to de-select her sticky shot from a particular enemy.
By the way, did anyone else switch the buttons around? I use A for the regular shot -- it feels more comfortable, and I can hold my hand steadier when slashing the sword.
