Best Weapons (Final Boss)
What equipment do you guys recommend for the final boss. Been trying the red shotgun attack + charge up shot w/ extra heart and ghost super.

You got the loadout right, but smoke bomb charm > all at non-flight fights.
I personally prefer the beam super over the third one, but it's a matter of preference.

Problem with the beam super is when you face bosses that require vertical attacks. Devil sits in his chair for the first part of the fight, and the ghost super seems to be effective.

Still haven't managed to get past his first phase. Not looking forward to finding out what else he has in store. And f*** his goat arm attack. The timing is so obnoxiously tight on that attack

The loadout I used to beat the final boss was Charge shot for primary and secondary Spread shot. For charm I used coffee and for super I used the super 2 (invincibility).

You can just jump and use the beam, it covers up a lot of space.
Deals nice damage and you don't need to move awkwardly with the ghost.

Yeah, i hate the controls for the ghost super. They shoudl have made it so the ghost just attacks the nearest enemy or something

I used this setup and I actually managed to kill the bastard. But i didn't use coffee, I used the smoke charm instead. Thanks for the advice guys. This boss is really only hard at the beginning. Once you drop down into hell, he's super easy.

Congrats on winning I just go used to using the coffee charm to build up super a bit faster. I oddly never used the smoke grenade charm until I did the pacifist for the run n gun levels.

The hardest run n gun levels are the two in Ink Isle 3. After beating those two the others are moderate in difficulty except the very first run n gun level when doing pacifist.

I have to say, the hardest boss for me was definitely that bastard robot. That was annoying.

The cupcake candy boss was a ♥♥♥♥♥ too

The bosses I had the most trouble with were (excluding the final boss and the penultimate boss) the robot and the ghost train.

I struggled with basically every boss, but that ghost train wasn't too hard. The final phase took some trial and error, but once i switched to homing shot he was easy.

Cupcake sucked, the Bee was a pain in the ass because there's so much going on and you could get stuck off screen often.

I enjoyed the rat the most. That was a cool boss and i lvoed the cat jumping through the wall.

And King Dice.. aw man was a a douchebag. I hated getting the bunny magician mini boss. His skulls weren't damn near impossible to dodge.

I had trouble with the train due to not changing loadout. I was using at the time the peashooter and spread shot.
Nick930 Oct 1, 2017 @ 6:41pm 
Spread shot works great for train. But yeah, peashooter i found was pretty useless all throughout the game.
Discreet_Pigeon Oct 1, 2017 @ 6:41pm 
I too enjoyed the rat fight he was honestly my favorite boss in the game to fight. I do agree with you the rabbit magician was a pain to fight especially when the opening his attack from the skulls was in a bottom corner.
