Mega Man Battle Network 3
Guide to Battle
Greetings, one and all! I am King Man, and this is what I do best:
strategy. So now I will reveal to you the secrets of battle, so that you too may defeat the
strongest of navis! Now, let us begin:
Flash Man: Bright Navi "...It's not that kind of Flash
Man...."
Health Levels: 300, 500, 700, 1500
Speed: Fast
Movement: All enemy Panels
Attacks: Flash Attack, Flash Stopper (Summon Attack), Flash Thunder, Steal
Suggested Chips: Anything Wood, Barriers, auras
Suggested Styles Wood Shield Style
Suggested NC Blocks: None
Element: Electric
Defense: Low |
 
 |
The first Navi you fight in the game. His health is very low, but his skills are not as thus
handicapped. He'll start the battle by teleporting around. Then he'll do one of two things. He'll
either use the Flash Attack, which is a VERY fast electric type ground traveling attack. It can
change direction, so be careful. Or he'll use the Flash Stopper. The Flash Stopper makes two
towers appear in your area. Destroy them quickly, because if you don't, you'll be paralyzed.
Though this can be avoided if you have a barrier or aura activated, as the penalization cannot
reach you. After you're paralyzed, he will use Steal, and then activate the Flash Thunder. The
Flash Thunder is a very powerful attack that affects the panel in front of Flash Man, and the
panels above, below, and in front of the aforementioned panel. Just keep pelting Flash Man with
Strong Wood chips, and you'll do fine.
Guts Man: STILL a strong country guy "YEEHAW!!!"
Health Levels: 300, 700, 900, 2000
Speed: Medium
Movement: All Enemy Panels
Attacks: Shockwave (Summon Attack), Guts Punch, Panel Crack, Zeta-Punch, Steal
Suggested Chips: Panel out 3, Metal Stage, Repair, airshoes, Invis
Suggested Styles Shadow/Ground Style, any element
Suggested NC Blocks: Shadow Shoes, Air Shoes, Set Metal
Element: None
Defense: Medium |

The navi of Dex, long rival of Lan. So he should be pretty easy. ^_^ Now then, anyone who's played
Battle Network 1 or 2 know the basic battle strategy of Guts Man. His basic attack is still a ground
traveling shockwave, so holes stop it. He also uses the Guts Punch, though it won't be limited to
the panel in front of him. It'll launch of until it runs into something, or goes of the screen. The
Panel Crack will cause all panels on your side of the field to become cracked. This can make
things quite difficult, though the chips I suggested above can easily counter it. The final, and most
deadly, attack in Guts Man's repertoire is Z-Punch, which is exactly like the program advanced. It
lasts for five seconds. Five seconds of a Guts Man firing off Guts Punches, and nothing can stop
him. This is where Invis and Shadow Style are helpful. But then again, with his low health, you
should be able to stop him, no problem. Also, I must note that stealing his panels is worthless, as
he'll just use Steal to reclaim his lost land.
Metal Man: Heavy Metal Dude "Insert loud Heavy
Metal Guitar Solo here"
Health Levels: 500, 800, 1200, 1700
Speed: Slow
Movement Range: All Panels
Attacks: Metal Rocket, Metal Blade, Metal Punch (Summon Attack)
Suggested Chips: None
Suggested Styles: none
Suggested NC Blocks: Break Buster
Element: None
Defense: Medium |

The navi of the lovely shop owner, Tamako. He is very strong. I must note that the battle begins
with Metal Gears on both sides of the battlefield. It is very hard to destroy the gear...unless, of
course, you have Break Buster, then you can just destroy it easily with your buster, which is
highly suggested. The attacks of Metal Man are very basic, first, there's Metal Rocket, which is
where Metal Man launches 5 rockets from that thing on his back, and they land in your area. The
landing will be preceded by the panel it will land flashing yellow. It's easy enough to avoid this.
Then he uses the Metal Blade, which is a blade that travels exactly like a Boomer; so just get into
the middle row, middle or front column. The strongest attack of Metal Man is the Metal Punch,
which is where Metal Man teleports to the panel in front of Mega Man, and raises his mighty fist.
After about a second, he'll bring it down, cracking the panel, and causing major damage. I cannot
stress how important it is to avoid this attack. This navi's attack patterns are very basic, but
dangerous none the less.
Beast Man: Wild Beast "Grrrr...."
Health Levels: 500, 700, 900, 1600
Speed: Fast
Movement Range: All panels
Attacks: Wild Slash, Wild Backslash, Corner Slash, Wild Beast Slash (Summon Attack)
Suggested Chips: Slasher, Time Freezing Chips
Suggested Style: Any Style, Elec
Suggested NC Blocks: None
Element: None
Defense: Medium |
 
 |
This is easily one of the fastest navis in the game. Scoring hits on him is a challenge in itself,
much less dodging his attacks. Anyway, he'll start the battle by teleporting around randomly.
Then he'll do one of two things. The most likely one is that he'll use the Wild Slash. The Wild Slash
is where he drops in (Literally) to the column directly in front of you, and then slashes with the
range of a wide sword. To avoid, step backwards. He'll then follow this up with a Wild Backslash.
Which is exactly the same as the Wild Slash, except he drops into the column directly behind you.
To avoid, step forward. The other thing Beast Man could do is use the corner slash. He'll teleport
to one of the four corners of your area, and then slash across the middle. To avoid, step
anywhere. When Beast Man is low on health, he'll start using the Wild Beast Slash. First, one of
his claws will appear up diagonal, and slash down diagonally. To avoid, step forwards or
backwards. Then his other claw will appear down diagonally from you, and slash up diagonally.
Dodge the same. Then his head will appear at the rightmost part of his area, and move forward.
To avoid, more up or down. Then he will repeat this at least once more. I must note that he does
this in rapid succession, making dodging very difficult. Since he's always moving into your area,
the Slasher chip will, quite literally, rip him to shreds. And use plenty of Navi chips, since hitting
with anything else is difficult. Just think fast, and you will succeed.
Punk: Famous Navi "You just got Punk'd"
Health Levels: 800, 1000, 1600
Speed: Medium
Movement Range: all Panels
Attacks: Punk Roll1, Punk Roll 2, Punk Reach, Punk Slash
Suggested Chips: Objects (Rock Cube, Rook, Etc), Slasher
Suggested Style: None
Suggested NC Blocks: None
Element: None
Defense: Medium |
 
 |
This navi is exclusive to the Blue Version. And since he doesn't give you a navi chip, there isn't
really any reason to fight. But I will tell you how anyway. His attacks are interesting because he
actually uses his own body as a weapon. You see those spikes he has on his body aren't just for
decoration. Punk Roll 1 has him moving forward in a manner like this: ~
Basically, he'll move forward, while going up and down amongst the panels at the same time. To
avoid this, you'll have to move forward at the right moment. Hard, but doable. Punk Roll 2 has
Punk moving like a Boomer does, but he'll turn at the same column you occupy. To avoid this, go
into the middle row, and move right when he gets into your column. He'll go by without a
hitch.
Punk Reach is a move that I detest. He'll stretch one of his arms off the screen, and it'll appear
right behind you, and it'll hit you. To avoid this, move up or down. Finally, the Punk Slash is his
strongest attack. First, he'll disappear suddenly, and those things on his shoulders will appear.
They mover in a style exactly like that of Punk Roll 2. Then he will appear in your own area, and
attack with a Wide Sword type attack. Avoiding this is hard. I suggest a Slasher Chip to hit
him.
As an endnote, Objects stop Punk Roll 1 and Punk Roll 2, such as rook and Rock Cube. They make
this battle so much easier!
Bubble Man: Surfer Dude "Blub you!!!"
Health Levels: 500, 800, 1200, 1800
Speed: Slow
Movement Range: Rightmost Column
Attacks: Bubble, Bubble Drone, Explosive Bubble, Crab, Bubble Wrap, Harpoon (Summon
Attack)
Suggested Chips: Anything Electric
Suggested Style: Elec Guts
Suggested NC Blocks: None
Element: Water
Defense: Medium |
 
 |
Beware the Scuba navi, for he is powerful...Well, not really powerful. He fits into the "Cute, but
annoying as hell" factor (Which were held by Ice Man and Toad Man in past BN games) Anyway, I
must note that the middle panel of Bubbleman's area has a hole in it, so multiple area steals
won't work to well. From the hole comes Bubbles, Bubble Drones, and Explosive Bubbles.
Bubbles are just that: Bubbles that cause damage when they hit you. They have only 1 HP, so
destroying them is easy. Just rapid fire (Which is why I suggested Guts style) Bubble Drones are
like Bubbles, except they have fish like things in them. When the bubbles are destroyed, the fish
things will suddenly dash forward. So destroy the bubble, then get out of the way. Explosive
Bubbles are pink, and have orange things in them. They are hard to destroy, and when they get
close enough, they'll stop moving, and explode. I would concentrate on only dodging this one
instead of attempting to destroy it. And now, we get to attacks that Bubble Man actually uses.
Every so often, he'll throw a Crab. It'll be thrown three spaces forward, then it'll move like a
ratton: it moves forward, and then turns into you. Avoiding these is hard, what with the bubbles
and such. Just do the best you can. When Bubble Man gets low on HP, he'll activate Bubble Wrap.
It's like a regenerating barrier. It can be taken out easily enough with the buster. And Bubble Man
will launch a flurry of Harpoons. They move straightforward, hitting all in their path. Just keep
pelting Bubble Man with strong chips, preferably of the Electric type, and he'll go down
easily.
King Man: Master of Strategy "King me!"
Health Levels: 800, 1000, 1500, 2000
Speed: Slow (King, Rook, Pawn), Medium (Knight)
Movement Range: Rightmost Column (King), Leftmost enemy Column (Pawn), All (Knight), Middle
Column in front of King (Rook)
Attacks: Plan B, Checkmate (Summon attack) (King), Long Sword (Pawn), Stomp (Knight), Castle
(Rook)
Suggested Chips: None
Suggested Style: None
Suggested NC Blocks: Break Buster
Element: None
Defense: Strong |

Very powerful indeed. The fight against King Man is hard because it isn't one on one: It's one on
four. Anyway, the battle starts with King Man having two pawns and a knight. The pawns have
Swords that slash two panels forward. They slash whenever Megaman goes in front of them. The
knight hops around your area, attempting to land on you, and sending shockwaves in front of it in
the process. After a while of this, King Man will activate Plan B. Plan B will change the set up of
the chess pieces. One of two Plan Bs will happen.
1. Steal is activated against you, and the pawns move forward
2. Two knights are now in your area, and a rook is in front of King Man
All the rook does is protect King Man. And he does quite well at that. The final attack of King Man
is checkmate. All three chess pieces will appear in your area, boxing you in. Then King Man will
jump on you! The way to avoid this is to move to the top row very quickly. Then move to the
bottom row as soon as King Man Jumps. That will save you.
Desert Man: Shape shifting Navi "Zezu Wa!!(I don't
know how to translate that)"
Health Levels: 800, 1200, 1600, 2000
Speed: Very Slow
Movement Range: Back two columns of enemy area, moves underground (Desert), Front column
of enemy area, moves by sliding (Hands)
Attacks: Quicksand, Sand Lion (Summon attack), Stone Block
Suggested Chips: Navi Chips, Water Chips
Suggested Style: Aqua Team Style
Suggested NC Blocks: Shadowshoes
Element: None
Defense: Low |
 
 |
Desert Man is a very interesting navi. And he is very hard. You see, whenever he is hit by
ANYTHING, he will go underground, then reappear somewhere else, with towers protecting
him.... well, ALMOST anything. If you hit him with an Aqua type chip, he will be frozen in place for a
few seconds, give you the perfect opportunity to hurt him. Anyway, The biggest problem with
fighting Desert Man is his hands. You see, not only are they defensive, but they are also
offensive. They will follow you, staying in the same row you're in. When they get into the same
row as you, they turn into a lion's head, and rush forward. The hands can be destroyed, but they
regenerate after a short while. Every so often, quicksand will appear randomly in your area. It
will never appear on the panel you currently stand on, but it is still an annoyance. It will cause
damage when you step on it. Just don't step on it...When Desert Man reaches low health, the
hands will gain a new attack: Stone Block. The hand will disappear for a moment, and then it will
attempt to crush you in the shape of a block. Before the block hits, the panel you are on will have
a shadow cast on it. This is your cue to move outta the way. Also, when the block lands, you will
be temporarily stunned whether it hits you or not. Hopefully, the other hand won't be there to hit.
Just keep hitting Desert Man with strong chip, and you'll do fine
Plant Man: Navi of Nature "Behold Nature's
Fury"
Health Levels: 1000, 1300, 1700, 2100
Speed: Medium
Movement Range: All enemy panels
Attacks: Rose Thorn, Plant Barrier, Flower Bloom, Plant Vine (Summon Attack)
Suggested Chips: Anything Fire
Suggested Style: Heat Guts
Suggested NC Blocks: None
Element: Plant
Defense: Medium |
 
 |
This navi can be quite difficult. He starts the battle by teleporting around. Then he will unleash his
attacks. The most common attack is the Rose Thorn. All it does is launch some giant thorns at
you. It's easy to avoid, but beware, because he'll do it a few times. Another attack of Plant Man's
is the Leaf Shield. This isn't so much an attack as it is a defensive maneuver. A circle of leaves
will appear. One attack will make the leaves disappear, but Plant Man will gain health equal to the
attack power that destroyed the Leaf Shield. Take it out with your normal buster, so Plant Man
doesn't gain too much health. Possibly the most annoying attack of Plant Mans is the Flower
Bloom. This will create two giant flowers in your area. One is Pink, one is Yellow. Every so often,
the flowers will release pollen into the surrounding panels. They don't do much damage, but the
cause bad effects. The pinks ones pollen causes confusion, and the yellow ones pollen causes
paralysis. The flowers can be destroyed, however. It is highly suggested that you do destroy
them. Plant Man's signature attack is the Plant Vine. Plant Man will stop moving, and reach his
vines into the ground. They will then appear in your area, attempting to catch you. If they do get
you, they will paralyze you, and hurt you. To stop this, just stun Plant Man with a strong attack.
Remember: Stay light on your feet, and use the power of fire, and you will be victorious.
Flame Man: Burning Navi "I'm too hot for this
guide"
Health Levels: 1000, 1400, 1800, 2400
Speed: Medium
Movement Range: Front two columns of enemy area
Attacks: Flame Breath (Summon attack), Flaming invincibility, Flaming Orbs, Flaming Life
Suggested Chips: Anything Aqua, Steal
Suggested Style: Aqua Guts style
Suggested NC Blocks: As many attack+ and rapid+ blocks you can fit into the customizer
Element: Fire
Defense: Medium |

The resident Flame Navi of this game, who is owned by the resident pyromaniac, Mr. Match.
Anyway, Flame Man's attack pattern is very simple, but his high health, and those damnable
candles make the fight much harder. Flameman's only attack is Flame Breath, which sends flame
towers straightforward. However, when Flame Man is low on health, the Flame Breath will
expand it's area, even being able to take up a whole column at once! SO beware Anyway, the
candle can do one of three things: When it burns green, Flame Man will not be affected by any
attacks. When it burns Orange, two orbs will appear and circle around your area. This can be
avoided easily with a Steal chip. When it burns red, Flame Man will gradually gain health. The
candles can be put out with attacks, but will relight every so often. This guy is an annoyance,
though not unstoppable. Douse the flame, and the man will fall.
Bowl Man: Bowling Navi "Strike!"
Health Levels: 1000, 1300, 1700, 2000
Speed: Fast
Movement Range: All enemy Columns
Attacks: Pin Missile, Pin Set, Bowl (Summon attack)
Suggested Chips: None
Suggested Style: Guts, any element
Suggested NC Blocks: Reflect/AntiDamage
Element: None
Defense: Medium |
 
 |
Rank #2 of the Undernet. And for all it's worth, he is very deserving of that title. Bowlman will
start the battle by teleporting around a bit, and then go to the back row of his area. He will then
raise his Bowling Pin arm, and begin firing Pins at you. There are three ways you can deal with
this:
1. Dodge the pins, since they come out in a specific pattern
2. Firing at the pins very rapidly, to throw them off target (Though the orange pins are a bit
harder to throw off target
3. Hit Bowl Man with a very powerful attack, thus stopping the attack
After using Pin Missile two times, he'll use the pin set. Three pins will appear in your area.
Nothing big. At least until he uses his final attack. His Strike attack is where Bowl Man takes out a
Bowling Ball and starts, well, bowling. It'll hurt if it hits you. And if it hits a pin, the pin will go flying
in the air, and will attempt to hit you! Then after that's done, he'll go back to the Pin Missile.
Repetitive, but effective. Just keep on moving, and you'll be sure to win
Mist Man: Navi in the Lamp "Abra
Cadabra!"
Health Levels: 1000, 1300, 1600, 2000
Speed: Medium
Movement Range: All enemy Panels
Attacks: Mist Charge, Mist Tackle, PoisonMist(Summon Attack), Soul Gang
Suggested Chips: None
Suggested Style: None
Suggested NC Blocks: None
Element: None
Defense: Medium |
 
 |
Rank #2 of the Undernet. And for all it's worth, he is very deserving of that title. Mist Man starts
the battle moving randomly around his area, and having the genie come out of the lamp. If he
goes into the same row as you (or vice versa), then the genie will Charge towards you. Avoiding
this is simple. However, if you end up right in front of the lamp, then the Genie will punch you
instead of charging at you. During the battle, clouds of Mist may appear in your area. If you stand
in these clouds, then your energy will be drained, much like poison panels or Anubis would do. I
wouldn't worry too much about these, except if you are in front of or behind the clouds, then the
Genie will come from it, and punch. Mist Man's most deadly attack is Soul Gang. Two apparitions
appear in your area, and they... well, they gang up on you. They restrict your movement
somewhat, and if you're on the same panel as one of them, your energy will be drained VERY
quickly. So you got energy drain, movement restriction, and punching all in one attack. My
suggestion is too delete Mist Man before he has the chance to do it, because dodging is very
difficult. And remember one thing: Attack the lamp, not the genie.
Drill Man: Navi with Sharp, pointy drills "I'll drill you a
new one."
Health Levels: 600, 900, 1200, 1800
Speed: Fast
Movement Range: all panels
Attacks: Tri Drill, Tunnel Drilling, Underground Drilling (summon attack)
Suggested Chips: Shockwave series, Scuttlest
Suggested Style: None
Suggested NC Blocks: Break Buster
Element: None
Defense: Low |
 
 |
Drill Man is very hard. He starts the battle by flying (Drilling?) in to the air. Then he will start Tri
Drilling. Three holes will appear in each row, and 2 drills and Drill man will appear, rushing right
for you! It is rather easy to dodge.... Though damaging Drill Man is difficult while he does this, due
to the fact the drill guards him. After a few Tri Drills, he'll use the Tunnel Drilling. Three holes will
appear, but Drill Man and the Drills won't appear. Instead, a bunch of drills will come out. And I
mean a bunch! But one the holes contains Drill Man. This is your chance to make a big attack on
Drill Man. Just find the hole he's in by using your normal buster, then attack mercilessly! Every so
often, Drill Man with use Underground Drilling. That's where 3 panels in your area will flash
yellow. DO NOT STAND ON THOSE PANELS!!!! Because Drill Man and 2 other drills will Drill
upwards, breaking those panels. Then three rocks will fall into your area. Avoid them at all costs.
Be very careful, because Drill man is dangerous.
Bass: Super Navi "Time for you to be
deleted!"
Health Levels: 1000, 100 Aura
Speed: Fast
Movement Range: All panels
Attacks: Bass Shot, Bass Spread, Bass Crush
Suggested Chips: Powerful chips, northwind
Suggested Style: None
Suggested NC Blocks: None
Element: None
Defense: Medium |
 
 |
Bass: The ultimate navi. But he is a bit weakened here after...well, I don't want to give any plot
away, so let's get on with the strategy. He has a 100 aura, so you must take it down with a strong
attack, or northwind. Then pelt him with strong attacks. The Bass Shot is Bass' most basic attack.
He will teleport around randomly, then get in the same row as you, and fire a single shot. After a
few of those, he'll go to the back column, and charge his gun. Then he'll let lose with the Bass
Spread, which is him just rapid firing like crazy. Hard to dodge, hard to block. Just hit Bass with a
strong attack, and he'll stop. When Bass' energy gets low, he'll use the Bass Crush, which is
where he goes above your panels, and bring down his mighty fist, breaking the panels, and
causing major damage. He brings his aura down for this attack, so it's a good time to attack. This
battle should go quickly, considering his low health.
Alpha: Alpha Tau Omega "Insert sounds of mass
destruction here"
Health Levels: 2000, 3000
Speed: none
Movement Range: Confined to middle Panel of enemy area
Attacks: Alpha Arm Sigma (White Summon Attack), Alpha Vulcan, Alpha Beam, Alpha Swipe,
Alpha Arm Omega (Blue Summon attack)
Suggested Chips: None
Suggested Style: None
Suggested NC Blocks: Airshoes
Element: None
Defense: Strong |
 
 |
Alpha is the final boss of this game. And he is very impressive. A barrier of sorts protects the
core of alpha. You can take it out with the buster, but it regenerates. Alpha's most common
attack is Alpha Swipe. One of his hands will attack the same column as you, and then his other
hand will attack the same row as you. Just move left/right, and then move up/down to avoid. He
usually does this several times in a row. And when you're fighting Alpha Omega (The one with
3000 health) his hands can steal panels as well, so beware. A very annoying attack is the Alpha
Vulcan. Those things on Alpha's shoulders will open, revealing a lot of guns. Then they will fire
like mad. Just keep moving and you should go unscratched. The Alpha Beam will start with Alpha
charging up. Then he will release a beam on the Middle row, front column of your area. That
beam will spread, hitting you entire front column and middle row, also cracking the panels. You
have plenty of time to get out of the way. Alpha Arm Sigma is a rarely used attack. You should be
very thankful that it is rarely used. A giant needle type thing will come out of Alpha. Then
Electricity will be released on you middle row, then your outer rows, then the middle row, etc....
This attack goes very fast. Just keep up with the pattern. Alpha's final attack is Alpha Arm
Omega. A giant rocket will be released from alpha, go forward to your side of the field, then go
off screen, then explode on your two back columns. Go to the front column to avoid this. Just
keep hitting with strong chips, and Alpha will go down.
Proto Man: Master Swordsmen "For the glory of the
officials!"
Health Levels: 1000, 1300, 1600, 2000
Speed: Fast
Movement Range: all Panels
Attacks: Guard, WideSword (Summon Attack), Reverse WideSword, Hero Sword, Sonic Boom,
Delta Ray Edge (Giga Summon Attack), Steal
Suggested Chips: Navi Chips, Anti-Sword
Suggested Style: Team or Shield, any element
Suggested NC Blocks: None
Element: None
Defense: Weak |
 
 |
You cannot face Proto Man until you have beaten the game. If you've played the last two battle
Network games, then you know Proto Man's basic strategy. The basics, anyway. The most
important thing to remember in this battle is that he cannot be hurt until right before he attacks.
Otherwise, he will use his shield. Though Time freezing chips are an exception to this, as he
cannot raise his shield when time is frozen. Anyway, Proto Man starts the battle by moving
around in the back row of his area. Then several things could happen. He could attack with a
wide sword. That's where he'll go into the column in front of you and attack with the sword. He
usually follows this up by moving behind you very quickly behind you and slashing with a
WideSword (I call it the Reverse WideSword). Another thing he could do is fire off some sonic
booms. Sonic Booms are exactly what they sound like. WideSword shaped slashes that go until
the end of the screen. This is a long distance attack. Take advantage of that by going to the back
column of your area, because you'll need all the breathing room you can get. After he does this,
he will go to the front column of his area and attack with the Hero Sword. To avoid this, move up
or down. Proto Man's final, and most deadly; attack is the Delta Ray Edge. Randomly, there will be
a "Ding" sound, and there will be a lens flare on Proto Man's helmet. This is your only warning. He
will then slice you with 3 Wide Sword attacks that will create a triangle shape. He only does this if
you're in a panel where he can hit you from all sides, in other words, the middle, or middle-right
panels, stay out of those panels and you'll be safe. On a final note, I say this: Do not steal territory
from him. He will only steal it back.
Dark Man: Assassin of Darkness "Just a few
more..."
Health Levels: 1400, 1600, 1800, 2000
Speed: Slow
Movement Range: All Enemy Panels
Attacks: Flametower, Ice Wave, Sensor Line, Black Wing (Summon Attack), Shadow Axe
Suggested Chips: None
Suggested Style: Normal
Suggested NC Blocks: None
Element: None
Defense: Medium |
 
 |
You may only face Dark Man if you have at least 140 standard chips. Dark Man is very interesting
in that he has attacks from different elements. So going in with an elemental style isn't
suggested. Three of Dark Man's attacks will only occur when Dark Man is lined up with you. The
attack he does depends on the color he is. When Dark Man is Black, he will use Flame Tower. It
will follow you if you move. When Dark man is Blue, he will unleash Ice Wave, which is the same
attack those Penguin things do. You should know how to avoid it. When Dark Man is Yellow, he
will use Sensor Line, which is like what Sensor enemies use. This attack also sucks because it
causes Paralysis. On their own, none of those attacks are a real threat. However, when used
with Dark Man's other attacks, they become a problem. Later in the battle, three holes will
appear in your area. One for each column. Out of those holes will come bats. Many, many bats,
and they hurt. However, if you use Area Steal, then the stolen column won't have a hole, and
you'll be safe. Later, Dark Man will start to use the Shadow Ax. If you've faced the Shadow
enemies, then you know what to expect: An Ax will appear in front of you or behind, slash, then it
will disappear. Then it will do it again. This'll keep up for awhile. So in the end, you can have Dark
Man using his elemental attacks, Bats flying at you, and an ax trying to cut your head off, ALL AT
THE SAME TIME!!!!! Finish this battle quickly. You'll be thankful you did.
Yamato Man: Honorable Samurai "I shall defeat you
in honorable combat!"
Health Levels: 1600, 1800, 2000, 2200
Speed: Fast
Movement Range: All Enemy Panels
Attacks: Thousand Spears (summon attack), reflect, Backup
Suggested Chips: Rook
Suggested Style: None
Suggested NC Blocks: Enough to get your attack and rapid to at least 3
Element: None
Defense: Medium |
 
 |
Yamato Man cannot be fought until you posses one Giga Chip. His attacks are very powerful, and
they hit multiple times. However, they are easy to dodge. The Thousand Spear attack is Yamato
Man's signature attack, and it's a very cool move. You go two panels in front of you (Though he
cannot move into your area) and unleash a flurry of spear strikes that hit all panels in the column
two columns in front of Yamato Man. Then he will match up with you again for a straight strike
that goes three columns back. To avoid this, move forward or backwards. Then move up or down.
While Yamato Man is moving between attacks, if you attack with the Buster, he will sometimes
spin his spear, reflecting the shot back. I suggest you not even attack while he's moving around,
and save all of your power for when he's attacking. When Yamato Man is down to half health, he
will activate backup. Little samurai soldier dude will run from Yamato Man's area, and take your
area! However, they cannot take the back column. You don't need to stop all of the little samurai.
I suggest setting a rook in your middle row. The samurais explode upon impact with it, and you'll
still have room to dodge Yamato Man's blows. It is suggested you finish this battle quickly. Take
too long, and you will soon be overwhelmed.
Serenade: King of the Undernet "My power...is
mercy"
Health Levels: 2000, 2600
Speed: Medium
Movement Range: All Enemy Panels
Attacks: Reflect, Holy Light, Holy Shocker (Summon Attack)
Suggested Chips: Powerful P.A.s, Area Stealing Chips, Panel Breaking Chips
Suggested Style: None
Suggested NC Blocks: None
Element: None
Defense: Strong |
 
 |
There are those that say the best offense is a strong defense. Serenade is an embodiment of
that ideal. You cannot fight Serenade until you have all 200 Standard chips in the game. If you try
to attack Serenade just any old time, he will spin onto a different panel, and reflect your attack
right back. While this is going on, the Holy Light attack will be going on. A small ball of light will
form in the front row of Serenade's area. And then it will go into your area, move amongst the
rows and columns much like Punk's Punk Roll 1. It's fast enough to be a problem, but not fast
enough to be an impossibility to dodge. After awhile of this, Serenade will go to the front Column,
middle row of his area. Then he will raise his hand, and unleash the Holy Shocker. Thunder will
rain down upon your area, breaking panels and causing destruction. However, while Serenade is
doing this, he is open to attack. So unleash your powerful Program Advances on Serenade. Then
rinse and repeat. However, there is another way to beat Serenade. When Serenade blocks, he
must be able to move to another panel. If he cannot, then he cannot do anything. So if you were
to Area Lock him to one panel, or Break all of his panels, then you could attack at will. Whatever
strategy you use, one thing is certain: It's gonna be a long fight.

Take one Super Navi and one multi Bug Organism. Mix them together, and you get what is easily
the hardest fight in the game. You will be dieing several times before he goes down. He starts the
battle off like Bass does: Teleporting around, firing a Shot every so often. Then things get
interesting. He'll use either the Bass Spread, where Bass fires off shot after shot after shot, the
Bass Crush, where Bass goes above you and brings his fist down, causing massive damage and
cracking panels, or Gospel Claw. Gospel Claw is a part of Bass' new repertoire of attacks. Bass
will point forward, and two big freakin' claws will come from the sky and strike two different
panels, cracking. This attack will rarely hit you, but when it does, it hurts. The Gospel Cannon is
where Bass holds his hands out, and a small Gospel head appears on his hands, the flames will
come out. To avoid this, just go to the back column of your area. When Bass' health is low, he will
use his most powerful attack: Banishing World. A much bigger Gospel head will appear and fire a
laser type attack. It causes mass freakin' destruction. I'll be honest: I never avoided it. All I did
was follow it up with a powerful recover chip. Since Bass has a 200 Aura, hurting him will be hard.
What you should do is take out the Aura, then follow it up immediately with a powerful attack. I'm
thinking Bodyguard, 2XHero, or Master Style as far as P.A.s go. Just be strong, and you will
succeed.
