I hate this asshole. I'm trying to beat all of the bosses with the mega buster only and this guy is giving me the toughest time. Does he even have a pattern?

Appears to be very easy.

There's no way it can be that easy. Stupid exploitable AI, god damn it.

>> No.2635441

yea that was obviously a pattern exploit.

elecman gave me trouble too. hard to dodge + hard to predict.

Before I learned exploits, I used to just play king of the hill on the left side and hope to not get fucked over by too many Thunder Beams.

I have to wonder if they screwed something up on Elecman, like maybe accidentally making his beam do too much damage. He just seemed so much more punishing than any of the other robot masters due to the combo of rapid movement and high-damage shots. The only other master I recall being anywhere close to him in terms of difficulty was Ice Man, and even he had an intentionally very obvious attack pattern so you just had to carefully jump through his shots.

Not entirely OT, but as someone who personally found Fireman to be the hardest master, how does he rank on the "mega buster only" difficulty?

Gonna go ahead a clarify that I found him to be the hardest under normal circumstances, far too pleb to do mega buster only runs.

Fire Man is pretty hard too unless you exploit him. You basically shoot him, he'll use his fire attack, and then you jump over it. He won't move or anything, so it's insanely easy. It's all in the timing though.
