The miniboss in the Mermog Cave is quite easy with the spiky armor from the Turtle cave. If you cling to the wall in the right place to the right and keep recasting shield, his shots will not hurt you and he'll be hurt by your armor every time he tries to shoot you.

Ok. I think something is up with The Creator; I've ripped his eye out and no enemies are spawning for me to charge up my Dual Form with. I've been sitting here for 5-10 minutes and he just shoots the large laser and the fireballs. Nothing else.

You have to shoot lazer face to make him spawn stuff.

Thank you sir, I have finally completed the game. Quite wonderful; oh and there's a way to kill the first form of the last boss in seconds. Don't know if you know about it already.

I would like to know if we need to get the songs perfect when fighting mother nature and how long does it take? I was fighting her using just the original and energy forms, every time I sang them she opened her eyes wide before closing them and spawning her horrors. I was copying her song as best I could for 20 minutes or more and there was no visible effects at all?

You forgot to shoot her face after the singing. I made the same mistake. The song isn't hurting her, it only makes her vulnerable for the shooting.

I believe you CAN kill her with just singing the song, but it takes FOREVER.  You'd have to ask Alec for confirmation on that one however.

It at least takes longer then 2 hours. And I still had the same amount of those caterpillar things that come at you with spiky bodies.
God sees and knows everything, but at least he won't gossip about it.

I wonder if I can spare 2 hours then because I have died every time so far.
I have read were it helps if you have Beast and energy form but I only have fish, energy and her normal form as I gave up trying to get to the area that contains beast form, just how do you get past those currents or should I have got another form before going to the cathedral?

Beast form is for getting past currents, you need to complete Mithalas Cathedral to access those areas.  As for the nature boss, all you need is energy and normal form (and some +energy food helps too).

Thank you Glamador, so that is next on my things to do list then as those currents are really frustraiting me  :D

By the way, I defeated the giant crab by attacking it's weakpoint for massive damage.

LOL, nice one.

I was impressed by the crab's real-time weapon-change ability, since we aren't easily entertained these days, and are certainly not interested in gimmicks. Was that giant enemy crab based on actual Japanese history? By the way, I think it would've been a bit easier if there was a way to flip over this crab on its back and attack its weak-point for massive damage.

Good job on the game, though, guys; the game is a technical masterpiece. The real-time character-change was groundbreaking!

After suffering major damage and almost exuasting my soups and rolls I finnally got into the right possition to get his belly and couldn't believe that my first shot to it killed him?  Spoiler: Do you really need to remove his claws first before he starts jumping?

You do have to remove the claws before he starts jumping...but if you're clever you can find a way to kill him without doing so.
