Zavok battle

[Noctis]

Welp, I'm trying to understand this fight. Like, in videos people jump when he lands on the platform and auto-target reticule appears on the boss. However, when I jump, it only shows the boss from below, as if I'm not jumping high enough. No matter how I time my jumps and where from, I can't get that auto-target to appear on him. It's not a but, it's just something I'm missing, but what? Any advice?

its a crappy boooossss

[Noctis]

I dunno. It's alright from a design perspective, I just do not understand how to actually fight him

[Aruz]

you don't jump. Just make sure he doesn't land directly on top of you and when he hits the ground you get popped up automatically.

[Noctis]

Ohhh, lemme try that =)

I cant even beat the boss. Crashes every time.

[Noctis]

That actually helped me out. Thanks, you saved me

I made the mistake while fighting thinking I'm supposed to Jump and hit him. When Zavok bullet drops the platform, make sure your out of the shadow and stand still/keep moving. The force of the drop causes the platform to launch you into the air where the reticle will appear. Finish the boss for a satisfying action shot. It's pretty cool, hope that helps.

[Noctis]

Yeah, that helped out big time. Thanks =)

That's true. Just beat him this way.
"Don't jump. Sonic jumps automaticly." WAT?

Oh my gosh I couldn’t figure this out for the life of me. I wasted so much time trying to jump from different places and raging. Just don’t jump. Kms

Holy crap THANK YOU, guys! I thought there was some tiny window in which I had to time my attack/jump correctly and that I was just missing it every time.
