Prime beating me down

Crash · 02-21-2003, 02:17 AM

anyone got any good ideas on how to beat the final boss on metroid? i can't even beat its first stage.... i wanna beat this puppy before waker comes out.

Very carefully...

It's not that hard... you just have to shoot it with the right gun depending on the color (that should be obvious).. when he charges at you (meaning when the color goes away completely) roll into ball and move into one of the little trenches... *shrugs* It isn't that hard...

Oh yeah and it helps to have the wavebuster and Ice Spreader (the flamethrower doesn't really work that good against it)...

Dude, you ain't seen nothing yet.

Well, yeah, just avoid any and all attacks she makes. For yellow, use the super beam (charge beam and missile)... and mostly charge beams for the others. Basically, the space boots are your friends. Use them. Lots.

Screw you. All of you. Your up to the final boss, people have finished it, I haven't even played it.

Good luck

2nd's not very hard either.... just avoid running right up to it and use the right visor so you can see it..... *shrugs* when it makes metroids and such, run into the puddle the MP makes and use it to kill them really fast and such...

Aside from that the only thing you need to worry about is jumping in time to dodge the fire (which isn't hard at all)...

What makes it so hard? *shrugs*

On hard mode I had more trouble with the first form...

I only said that the 2nd was harder than the 1st one, wich is true. So shut up now. *shrugs*

Don't forget in the first part of Metroid Prime that he shoots those two balls at you. And if you charge your power beam and shoot them you can get energy and missles, plus by doing that it avoids them from hitting you.

While I didnt beat the final boss in PRIME on my first or second try, I did on my 3rd try. Once you figure him out, hes not that bad. I actually found the omega pirate to be much harder.

Dyne · 02-21-2003, 07:45 PM

Omega Pirate was ridiculous. I am not looking forward to meeting him on my second run through on hard mode.

Beat it my first try... both on Normal and Hard mode... I'm so damn good!

Although on Normal (my first time) I think I beat him with like 3 energy left

I beat Prime on my first try actually, though I think most of it was just plain luck then skill. I had to fight Omega Pirate two or three times.

Anyway, just so long as you get the energy from the little energy palls Prime shoots at you, you should be fine. Just don't stay still and be ready to switch guns at any moment.

*shrugs and walks away*

I'm still in the Chozo ruins

The Germanator · 02-22-2003, 03:18 PM

yeah..I'm looking around the Talon overworld for something or other right now.
