Thank you Xiagan :)

Ok these are the forms that I have faught so far, the self proclaimed god on his throne, the one that looks a little like a badly malformed lobster and song form, now I am faced with one large boss standing in a place that looks like it's out of time and space with one red metal eye standing proud and one almost normal one and here I am stuck. I have tried shooting the metal eye, behind the metal eye and binding it but so far to no effect?
I only know to do this because I searched and found this..
Quote
Final Boss Form 5:
Shoot his braincase at the top left of his head and reveal his eye. Shoot the muscle off of the eye until it dulls and becomes invulnerable, then remove the eye with the bind spell. Next go down to his stomach and use the dual form Li to shoot his mouth for a second (then get out of the way of the laser.) After a while enemies will spawn. Kill them and absorb their power. When Li is charged up turn into dual form Naija and make an energy blast near the stomach. Repeat this 4-5 times while avoiding giant colorful balls of death and stuff. Enjoy the ending.

I guess that I have just got to keep at it untill he shows some sign of weakening but it would be nice to know if I am on the right track? :(

That description you've shown has one step missing.  After you attack the eyepatch and reveal the muscular eye there's one more thing before you can damage it.  Ever stare into the sun?

You are speaking of the fifth form, prolly mixing up the first two as one. Have you searched the forums? Because it is explained very well on at least one, more likely more, places.
To make it short: blind his eye, rub it out, shoot with Dual-Li in the Belly, charge Dual-Naija with the three Nautilus and the finish him with her scream.
;) (I meant with light)

I guessed that you meant light and of course it worked but I just got killed again, still back to the fray tomorrow if I have the time? It's art group in the afternoon and we are going out painting, and well I will go along if the weather isn't as heavy as it's been today the extra high heat and humidity has had me hanging on to my inhaler all day :(
If it's bad again I will be able to try that last battle again :D

Hey all,  so I'm pretty near the end and the forums have helped a lot when I've been stuck.  But now I'm in a deep stump.

I've managed to save li from the bubble after finding all four spirits, I have dual form now. So I decided to go downward and found some sort of growth spawning enemies.

I'm more interested to find out WHAT it is. I'm going to try to use the dual form and supposedly "scream" it away, but other than that I have no idea how to get rid of it or even what it is lol

Any vague hints for me? I'd prefer to figure out *most* of what to do on my own, but a vague hint would help.

thx all :)

That! is the creature that you need to blast with the scream And it's the start of the gauntlet, perhaps it's best if you make sure that you have explored everywhere before you take on the gauntlet....  It's the beginning of the end so you really need to know how to use dual form first and have explored the rest of Aquaria...

I don't know what it's called but it's ugly and only the first...

The entity name for it in the editor is simply "gateway." And you're right, you simply "scream it away" to get rid of it. As for whether you should yet, that depends on whether you're prepared to face the aforementioned gauntlet. Basically, it's nothing but a world of hurt beyond that gateway: a lot of enemies, with no save point until the end, just before the final boss. I'd say if you've maxed out your health meter, and have the jellyfish costume and a few healing food items (but save the rare ones for the final boss!), you can probably beat the gauntlet. And there's a transport turtle near the final save point, so if you're worried about completion, you can use it and not have to fight your way through the lower abyss and the body again. So if you feel you can beat the gauntlet, I'd say go for it, even if you don't feel ready for the final boss.

I went for it saved at the crystal,  then used the turtle so that I could restock before facing the final boss, and I think that was the best way for me as I needed to get my breath back, but others might like to keep the adrenalin running?

Can anyone help me with the Sun temple worm - can't find the place to sit and shoot without being sucked in, can't shoot him down when he is stuck on the spikes, I shot at it for five minutes and nothing happened until I moved then I was hit hard.  I have jumped out and into the veil without killing this boss but not sure if I have to kill him to get the sun form?  If the sun form is elsewhere then can I leave this boss alone and move on?  I am aware that I need the sun form to attempt the abyss.  This is the most fantastic game ever and I love it. :(

I can't be 100% sure but I think that you do need to kill him to get it? spoiler := He is a tricky customer but so far I have managed to kill him first time each time I played the game so far..... Well except for accidently jumping out the ceiling of course :-[ ;D I just use a soup, a crab cake and an energy food and swim around like crazy blasting him but others swop from nature form to energy form to do it because the big spikey things can protect you while you are also immune to the coral in that form. Just use the 2 and 4 keys to swop between them.

And if I can do it anyone can :D

Thanks for the advice but I am hopeless at shooting at things, my son is coming over later and he has loads of experience so maybe he can do it for me.  It is so frustrating because I love the game and I would be happy just to swim around and find things.  I discovered yesterday that nature is immune to the spikes so that makes things a little easier.   :)

The trick that I used on the Sun Worm was using Beast Form to jump up on one of the spiky ledges on the ceiling, switching to Nature Form in midair, and then switching to Energy once you're clinging to the ledge.  If you switch to Energy after you're clinging on, you shouldn't take damage.  Be ready to switch back to Nature pretty quick, though, cause you will occasionally bounce up and take damage when you fall back.  Have some healing items ready.  But once you're latched on, you can pretty much just spam energy form shots down into the water.  It helps if you have Li, too.
