If you are quick with your parry, you can get the dice roll you want if you parry it exactly when the face you are looking for starts to pop up, I just saved you like an hour, or 3 in my case.

If you time your parry correctly, you can acutally chose what numbers you want to roll. If you find some bosses to be easier to deal with than others, you could try to land on their spaces instead of a more difficult boss.

as a suggestion the best and easy bosses are 2-4 and 9

7 is crazy easy if you have the smoke bomb charm. You can easily dash through all of its attacks.

true that you can just dash trought the enemy like the clown but it was a suggestion without a charm or weapon in mind, i just started using the autoparry charm and it helps me a lot with the card hitboxes but it was dificult to use in the 7 fight

Personally, when going for an A and for the Rolling Sixes achievment, I went 2, safe, 5, 7, safe, fin. I used the smoke bomb, Charge, super 2 (for king dice himself in case things got hairy), and peashooter.

When Mr Dice himself attacks you gotta parry pass a bunch of card and I recommend parrying the same card twice so you'll better see the next ones before making a jump for the them (and also fill up your super faster).

You should also move all the way on the opposite of where he summoned cards and sit in that corner so he wont hurt you since he mostly switches between left and right and you can stand behind his hand safely.

Of all the bosses, I always keep getting stuck at #6, the dominoes. The other hard boss is #3 (the poker chips) and #8 (the dead horse jockey).

I managed to reach King Dice but foolishly died due to inability to parry well.

An easy way to get the dice roll that you want is to jump on the number *after* the roll you want then parry on the way back down.

Yeah, but when you're behind his hand you can't shoot him.

I think you mixed up the order a bit. 1: Tipsy Troop. 2: Chips Bettigan. 3: Mr. Weezy (Cigar). 4: The dominoes. 5: Hocus Pocus (rabbit). 6: Fear lap (horse). 7: Piroulette. 8: The 8-ball. 9: The monkey. But yeah, the horse is pretty hard. What I do is get the smoke bomb, and that makes the stack of chip super easy.

I wouldn't bother with picking specific bosses, they are all pretty easy, once you get to know them. Just always roll to the extra hp point and then to the safe zone. It's not that hard to always get the dice roll you want. King Dice is actually very easy, because none of the parts are really difiicult, you get extra hp and he himself isn't really that hard either, especially if you arrive with 6 hp points. ;)

I don't know why, but I just adore the names of these characters, plus king dice. Also, for that same unknown reason, there's somethign about the final level's name "One Hell of a Time" that just puts a big fat grin on my face.



Also, wiht Proper Timing, you can choose which minibosses you fight, with a minimum of 3 before the dice himself. 2, 3, 4, 7, and 8 are the easiest IMO. 3 especially, for I was able to somehow smoke bomb behind him without getitng hit, leaving him defenseless. The hearts to exactly what you think and restore 1 hp, but they don't count for the 3 hit bonus at the end. You don't actually have to worry about supers and parrys and stuff until dice himself appears. When that happens, you especially need to worry about parrying. He only has one card attack, but you need to land 5 in a row to not get hit. On the other hand, 5 in a row lets you fire off super after super, and he doesn't have a lot of HP to begin with.

Yeah, the HP bonus is based on how much damage you take, not how much HP you have, which sucks on 2-player mode. Anyway, for some reason the parries in King Dice don't fully charge one card, but they still charge a little bit, strangely.
