stuck at the boss in the energy temple

[VASILIS24]

hello im new to the game i love its graphics and especially the music. but im stuck in the energy temple. i cannot beat the boss. i put a sphere where i have to then i burn it (while in energy form) and the boss is hurt. but this happens for only 2 times. then he wont come any closer in order to hurt him. please help me i really wanna go further the game

He doesn't come close enough to get his body, but if your timing is right you can get his claw or snout. The third hit is the last one needed.

ty very much for your help although i have to admit this is a little dificcult anyway i will try ty again

Something hilarious happened to me the second time I played the demo: I lured the boss past the energy-wall and set it alight, and the boss died in one hit. WTF!. I think he died because I hit him in the privates

ROTFL!

So that is 'the wall' that you were talking about in the other thread, it's an energy door Chibi lol

[silverflagon]

Oh cmon, I just explained it in that thread! 

I missed the explaination Chibi, and that's my excuse and I am sticking to it lol

[Chibi]

You don't need an excuse, it was just rueful regret.

Ooh ooh - so it's actually possible to kill him in fewer than three hits if you target them right? That might conceivably let me actually get past this encounter one of these days.

I've fought that damn creature about 15 times now (at least -- maybe more) and can never manage to get him in the beam a third time. I can lure him right into where it should be, but even if I'm holding down the right button while I'm swimming to tempt him, so that theoretically I should be able to blast the pearl instantly by letting him go, it's not fast enough. He can pull back faster than the energy blast can go off. It's so frustrating. I think the only way to kill him is to know when he's going to strike before he actually does it, or makes any move toward doing it, or thinks about doing it.

But since my psychic abilities are not that advanced yet, maybe I'll just try hitting him in the privates.

When in doubt, go for the family jewels.  I haven't been able to replicate it though - it was a once in a lifetime hit.

My recommendation to you would be to hold down the right button, move the cursor over the pearl (targeting it), and let go when the boss moves into range. Any other strategy needs timing and aim in order to hit the pearl and not the boss. Good luck man!

Rememeber that he only lunges forward when you get near him,  thats how you know when hes going to strike next. No psychic ability necessary. xD
You just have to prepare the shot, then wander near enough to him, then dash away when he swings and shoot the pearl at the same time.

Good luck.

xD.... How I managed to do it was... to also get hit at the same time >.>

One swipe from the boss won't kill you xD

[Hiro]

Yeah that works too. xD

Easier than trying to dive away at the last second -and- pull off the shot if you're not super dextrous.
