Experiment 7 Advice?

[DaetherX]

Good stuff. Once the patch installed I tried the game again.
I think Experiment 7 (the final boss?) should have a quarter to half second increased delay before shooting. I'm assuming it has other attacks later, but I've died in 2 attacks every time except a few times I prevent one attack, and like once I prevented 2.

Or, perhaps the Shock Rounds should work against it at least somewhat.
I had just enough money to invest in those, even though I remember hearing a dev say to get the body armor to someone for this boss. I figured I'd see if the thing I could get now would help. It didn't. Am I to reason the freeze rounds also have no effect on it?

I was hoping the increased accuracy at beginning of firing from this patch was going to help be accurate enough to stop it from firing, but it didn't. ATM it seems like it's due to not being able to target it quick enough... but even I'm firing at it already it barely ever stops it.

This is all just my perception for anyone reading this. I might be missing an "obvious" thing I'm supposed to be doing or having. ...and now that I type this I think I remember one of the melee equips is a shield, which might help if I can make money, especially if combined with the armor.

How do I make money while stuck on a boss?
This has been my gripe with the bosses so far, This one there seems to be much less opportunity to make money if you have none, than with, for instance, the worm boss, where you needed to be able to destroy enough parts to exceed the amount you spent destroying those parts, but then you were good after that.

Maybe piercing rounds might help so they go through its shoulder which blocks other rounds from hitting the arm. (tested, and it seems like "piercing" rounds don't go through the bosses face into its gun arm)

Ahaha. Yes, the shield was the solution.
The patch adding the ability to sell equipment for the same price bought allowed me to get it and deflect the projectiles it shoots at first.

Hey, glad the new selling mechanic helps with experimentation. For Experiment 7 another helpful upgrade is the red cell shot, this will increase your health so his gun attack won't kill you with a single round of shots.

Another one is rapid fire, it will be of great help with denying that gun attack!

With every boss, once you learn the ropes they can be surprisingly easy to kill. That's been the challenge, making them as approachable for as many people as possible. Hopefully these updates since launch have been helping out!
