Boss Strategies =============================================================================== You should take the bosses out in this order: Start with Toad Man, then Bright Man, Pharaoh Man, Ring Man, Crystal Man, Napalm Man, Stone Man and at last Charage Man. Toad Man ======== Weakness: Ring Boomerang Get Weapon: Rain Flush Toad Man is very easy, if you know what to do. Just use your standard weapon on him. Fire at him and he will jump. Dodge the jump and shoot at him again. Repeat the procces until he is defeated. If you have Ring Boomerang, use it to kill him faster. Bright Man ========== Weakness: Rain Flush Get Weapon: Flash Stopper Bright Man is a bit harder than Toad Man, but he is not a hard boss. Just use Rain Flush and dodge his jumps. Sometimes he freezes you and jump on you to cause damage. Pharaoh Man =========== Weakness: Flash Stopper Get Weapon: Pharaoh Shot An easy battle if you have Flash Stopper. Just use Flash Stopper to stop him and fire at him. When he unfreeze use it again and fire at him. Ring Man ======== Weakness: Pharaoh Shot Get Weapon: Ring Boomerang Charage up Pharaoh Shot fully and try to make him land on it. This strategy worked for me but if does not work for you, just try to hit him with Pharaoh Shot. Antenna ======= Weakness: None Get Weapon: None Shoot at the ball with your Mega Buster when it is exposed. Not Hard. Ballade (1st Time) ================== Weakness: None Get Weapon: None This boss is not very hard, just shoot at him with a fully charged Mega Buster when he is not moving. Crystal Man =========== Weakness: Charge Kick Get Weapon: Crystal Eye If you have the Charge Kick use it. If you don't have it use your Mega Buster. He is a bit hard. Napalm Man ========== Weakness: Crystal Eye Get Weapon: Napalm Bomb Use the Crystal Eye against him. If you shoot against the wall, the Crystal Eye will spilt into four smal Crystal Eyes. Stone Man ========= Weakness: Napalm Bomb Get Weapon: Power Stone Try to jump over his stones and use the Napalm Bomb, when youre near and when he is not doing anything. He is quite hard. Charge Man ========== Weakness: Power Stone Get Weapon: Charge Kick Use the Power Stone when he is not flashing or charging. It's quite hard to jump over him too. Hard. Ballade (2nd time) ================== Weakness: None Get Weapon: Ballade Cracker Use a fully charged Mega Buster or Paraoh Shot. Try to make him not land on you whe nhe jumps. Cannon ====== Weakness: None Get Weapon: None Jump to up on the cannon and shoot it with your Mega Buster. Easy. Crane ===== Weakness: Almost All Weapons Get Weapon: None Very easy. Shoot at it's mid section with any weapon. Eyes (1) ======== Weakness: None Get Weapon: None Shoot at the real eye with Mega Buster. If you shoot at the fake eyes it will not take any damage. Eyes (2) ======== Weakness: None Get Weapon: None A bit harder than before, but try to use the same strategies. Next you will fight all bosses again. Use the same strategies as before This is the layout of the teleport hatch: ========================================= __ __ |TO| |NA| |--| |--| |BR| |ST| |--| __ __ |--| |PH| |RI| |CR| |CH| |__| |__| |__| |__| TO = Toad Man BR = Bright Man PH = Pharaoh Man RI = Ring Man CR = Crystal Man NA = Napalm Man ST = Stone Man CH = Charge Man =========================================== Dr. Wily (1st Form) =================== Weakness: None Get Weapon: None Use the Power Stone to hit the core, it's a bit hard to hit.
