Easiest way to beat Cap. Brineybeard

Ok so i'm trying to get an A grade on his level and I keep getting hit and the time is to 3 minutes. I need a simpler way. Give me hints.

Roundabout and Spread are probably your best friends for this fight. The fight gives you loads of things to parry, so I’d heavily encourage just laying into the boss with special moves. You could also try leading the barrel, force it to drop on certain spots to either slow it down or give yourself more room to breathe when you need it

He’s a really easy fight once you get a formula down. Just pace yourself really.

Oh, and fun little fact about the ships beam at the end. If you’re crouching under the beam and then dash while holding crouch still you can move without taking damage. Has saved me from the barrel on multiple occasions.

Thanks Fohx. I'll try using this. Though one thing. I did the crouching and dashing under the beam thing. I still took damage. But I'll try this. Thanks again. :zote:

Everything this dude said is right but when you duck under the beam, be close and use spread or be farther away and use roundabout. Also I don't think he mentioned using super art 2.

It's super easy to build up super in this fight so make sure to save it until the end. If that barrel drops on you during that beam, just use your super. (That last phase is super short as well so the super should last)

I would actually prefer super number 3. Anyways thanks everyone for the advice!
