Do bosses have weaknesses?

[SagaSWP]

I'm trying the 50% bonus HP boss entropy cluster, but I keep getting wrecked at level 7 or so by the Fire Gorilla. I haven't noticed any boss weaknesses personally, but I thought I would just ask.

Bosses weaknesses work differently than they did in 20XX. Rather than the abilities disabling/doing much heavier damage than normal; abilities can be used to counter boss moves.

For example Negation Pulse and Osafune destroy Echo Beast's sonar bouncer attacks.
E.g. 2. Echo Shell/Crushing Void reflects/absorbs Lethal Tempo gears.
That said, crystal wave can be used to temporarily stun Hootmega.


I'd recommend bringing a negation pulse or Echo Shield abilities or dash shield to the fire gorilla (Zen Primus); they make the bullet hell phases of the boss much easier. Ryuusei also makes short work of the statues.

Just a tip for Zen Primus specifically: If a fireball fired by ZP is moving perfectly horizontally, you can dash under it. The fireball hitbox is smaller than it looks!

Thanks that pretty much confirms what I thought. I always set the Barrier boss as my early boss, his shield is my favorite ability of all the bosses, so I have that. I think the two times I fought him I just didn't have good RNG and just couldn't dish out the dps.
