Jesus christ this asshole is really difficult on a buster only run

I hear people mostly say boomer kawanger is the hardest on a buster run but I beat him with half a health bar on my first try. So how do I beat this fuck?

His weakness makes him like a little baby (hint: it hits him in all directions).

I know but I'm trying to do all the boss's mega buster only. Is thr buster upgrade even worth it? It doesnt seem anymore powerful than the standard charge shot.

Honestly, no. In fact the super charged shot is worse because it's a cluster of weaker projectiles and hitting the boss with any of them will trigger his invulnerability period, use either the big blue charge shot, or even better, dash forward and fire an uncharged shot as that'll deal double damage and it's a quick and reliable way to lay on hurt without charging.

Did you change dash to R instead of A? It makes it a lot easier to dodge attacks because you can dash and jump at the same time more easily, makes it easier to go off walls like you have to with this guy.

There are people who don't change dash to R?

I wish they would deliberately design bosses to filter out buster-only runners

Wow you suck, I played this game my entire childhood and this guy I was able to beat casually just to get him over with and move on to the next guy's stage. You're telling me that me when I was 6 years old could beat this guy without even trying but you can't beat him at all? Wow!

Huh. Didnt know the pink shot was weaker damage wise. Also dashing and shooting does extra damage?

>> No.6021436

Dash shooting only increases the power of your regular bullets. Charged shots do the same damage regardless.

I've been using A dash since 1994. I'm not going to change my play style now.

Is there any proof anywhere that says the pink shot is weaker than the charged blue shot? I would just like to know because on my next playthrough I wanna know if it's worth getting
