I still have SUCH a hard time with MegaMan bosses. Playing on Mugen's stream last Saturday, I couldn't even beat SnakeMan or GeminiMan with 3 live on The Wily Wars. Any battle like that where I come out with 1 hp is like 'oh god thank you'.

Most stressful fight though...has to be one where it's multi-tiered, like MegaMan 9's final battles. You have to fight ALL the Robot Masters, then ALL of Wily's stages without dying.

But the highest level of stress probably came from trying to beat MegaMan 10 without getting hit. I was trying this on MegaMan 9 but only got so far as the next to last level, never quite made it all the way. It's alot more doable on MegaMan 10, but the last few boss battles are REALLY stressful.

dynamo man whilst playing as megaman. it's okay as bass because you can just shoot upward to destroy his energy rechargers without him regaining too much HP. but megaman is pretty much screwed here, you'll probably only be able to destory one of the chargers. copy shot is such a shit weapon too and it's supposed to be his weakness!

A lot of bosses I can't beat without special weapons. Let's see.

Magma Man for starters because he's such an unpredictable asshole. I have never beat him without an E-Tank or tornado blow.

Enker was also really tough on MM10, such a random pattern. He makes the gb version look like a joke!

MM7 wily capsule is also a large anus. MM9's is too, requires some almost perfect timed jumps!

Fire man is really awkward to dodge, he kicks my ass a lot of the times.

If i had to order it i'd say

-Enker
-Fire Man
-Proto Man (MM7)
-Burst Man (MM7)
-Wily Capsule (MM7)
-Ground Man
-Dynamo Man

Tengu wants to join in :p
((Mind you these bosses were defeated using only the buster without use of Special weapons. All cept' #4 of course))

==================

Boss of Hell #1: Dive Man ((MM 4))

-All I have to say is this guy is basically a Hard Man Juggernaut. His missiles are one thing to dodge properly, though his high speed charges ((which he can direct himself in any angle mind you...)) will have you QQing in seconds. Still trying to find a strategy to take him down without popping veins :?

Boss of Hell #2 Elec Man ((MM 1))

-Simple stage if not tedious with the ladder climbing... but why is it that whenever I climb up that one ladder that leads me to his lair that he completely zaps me until my systems fry?! Well getting back to the point, despite Fire Man giving a few 3rd-degree burns with his attack, Elec Man proves to be the one who can finish me off with just three hits of his Thunder Beam and his Surge dashes without at least getting hit of my buster. Surely a boss that urges you to stay patient and focus properly.

Boss of Hell #3 Slash Man ((MM 7))

-Know what I hate? Bosses that spam one attack then leave you off guard the next. Slash Man is just ridiculous though funny when you think about it.  If you were to compare Slash with Vega from street fighter, they seem to have the tendency to use that one wall jump slash attack repetitively to aggravate you on purpose. Despite that, the falling sticky fruit he releases from the ceiling can leave you immobile whether you get hit by it or not considering they stay on the floor for a while. Had to say this boss made me sweat from it's "rinse and repeat" and unpredictable pattern.

Boss of Hell #4 Atetemino ((MM 8))

-If you ever took the time to actually beat MM 8 and venture into the Wily fortress, then my friend you will know the craptacular hell I faced when I met the bag worm known as Atetemino. Let me explain how this boss works...

Your in a room with some decent maneuverability and jumping room, the only difference is that there are three chutes that drop three things: The boss, an item crate, and a crate that shoots bombs. The only way to harm perfectly it is with the Mega Ball, and the only way to make that ball connect is if you hit it at an angle. Mind you that your doing this as it drops crates on your head and miniature versions of itself on the floor so ball spamming is predicted. Mind you too that it's always switching chutes, so mostly pray that it comes out either the left or right corner. Be warned though as it comes close to defeat, another version of itself will appear as a bomb.

Boss of Hell #5 Gemini Man ((MM 3))

-Man one of my favorite RMs in the classic series turns out to be my worst thumb ache. This guy doesn't need a large explanation mainly because we all knew we got our butts whooped at least once by his attack pattern and from his partner in crime (by that I mean his double). Fun boss nevertheless...
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: PressStart on September 03, 2010, 07:01:36 AM
Yea Gemini's fun but hard despite bein a 'REACTION' boss.

For DiveMan, all I can say is SHOOT his missiles right as they come out (and since you're firing at him anyways, you'll be hurting him) and just be ready to hop immediately when he goes into dive pose. You don't wanna do huge leaps either; he usually does em in a row so you wanna land quick and be ready if he does another. If he doesn't, open fire again!

I followed the above strategy the other day and...still got hit a million times cuz I can't jump right  :cry:
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: CutmanMike on September 03, 2010, 09:44:02 AM
Oh yeah that boss on MM6 that looks like a big purple face. Not only is it just a dumb boss but it's really difficult to avoid sometimes. It just floats down and fucks you up now and again, and it's too fast!
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: KillerChair on September 03, 2010, 12:29:59 PM
I must say i always had trouble aswell at megaman 7 wily capsule...
Untill i saw this guy do a playtrhough of the 8bit remake. Then i followed his hints and a bit of his playstyle and now i have no trouble beating him.

(it even worked for me in the original megaman 7 for those who think it would only work for the 8bit edition)

Post by: Max on September 03, 2010, 03:13:33 PM
Lets see...

ELEC MAN ~ MEGA MAN
He was annoying as hell. He was unpredictable, fast, and he could kill you in three hits. Even with his weakness, he'd take three hits, and if he hit you first, BAM. Dead. This is what makes him my favourite robot master!

BRIGHT MAN ~ MEGA MAN 4
He'd constantly stop time and barge into you, causing a lot of damage. His weakness was useless to use on him, and without an E-Tank I can barely beat him...

MODEL W ~ MEGA MAN ZX
His two forms would batter me and batter me until I gave up. I only had 2 subtanks, and I usually died on his first form if I didn't use one! I only beat him by a fluke ;_;
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: brotoad on September 03, 2010, 06:42:51 PM
actually if you hit brightman with the megabuster once first, and then switch to rain flush, he will never stop time!
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights

*Facepalm*
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: brotoad on September 03, 2010, 07:57:50 PM
well, it's cause he only stops time when his HP is at a certain point!

brotoad, why must we fight?

Oh another two bosses I had a bunch of trouble with both come from Mega Man Network Transmission:

Fire Man.exe: He's the first boss you fight and you have no upgrades or weapons to combat him with.  My first time playing through that game had me seeing death too much at that first fight.

Bass.exe: The dude floats in the air and rains punishment down upon you.  I had to use every trick in the book to get past him.  Every weapon only does a sliver of damage to him and after all that struggle, all you manage to do is take away about 1/8th of his health and knock off his cloak before he decides to let you live.
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: Snake33AU on September 12, 2010, 12:13:16 PM
Definitely Toad Man is the hardest boss ever, lol j/k. Seriously though, every boss was hard until I found out their patterns. I even played them again and only beat them with the mega buster. Having learnt their patterns I could do it, but it was still pretty hard.

As for the ones that have stuck out like a sore thumb, here they are:

MM1 Yellow Devil
AHH! I'd always stuff up the jumps and at times miss the chance to hit his eye. Having no E-tanks in this game, this made it very difficult and tedious. D:

MM5 Wily capsule
Not sure why but I had a hard time trying to beat Dr. Wily in MM5. His patterns threw me off and I struggled keeping ahead of him. Then I realized the stupid bird could screw him up after i beat him without it. =S lol

MM7 Wily capsule
... no comment. His patterns were hard to remember and I was limited to four E-tanks. Hardest Wily boss thus far in the series.

MM10 That block devil thing
Ahh! combination of the devils and that block boss from MM2. Hardest thing was dodging the attacks and not falling to your doom!

They have been the hardest ones for me, unless I remember any more later.

I should have mentioned, I played again only to beat the Robot Masters with the Mega Buster (and using no E-tanks). Screw doing that on the Wily stages! lol. I need my weapons and E-tanks when I can! XD

Lol, it was YOU!!!  :mrgreen: (i nearly pushed "report" instead of "quote" lol).
You made me angry, though I figured out your patterns and used thunder beam on you (i was oblivious to the pause trick, but that's just not me anyway, lol).
Fire storm when I ran out of Thunder beam.

P.S. Sorry I swore at you and stuck my middle finger at the screen when I finally beat you. It was quite overwhelming at the time.  :p  lol.


Forgot to add one:
MM2 Dr. Wily stage 5?
When you had to beat the Robot Masters again and beat the Wily Machine (on difficult mode) was pretty frustrating. If it weren't for Metal Blades I'd be screwed! XS

I whole-heartedly agree. While it was an amusing exploit, those who think they can claim to beat the game by doing that is robbing you of your victory, and even of theirs.

And those who use turbo-fire ... don't get me started (I used to in Contra but not anymore, lol).

Ha ha, hmm, I can't say I really remember Snake Man in the cartoon series. I guess I watched more of the earlier episodes. Napalm Man got jibbed too, being shown in the intro but not in the actual show.

Being the Ruby Spears cartoon though Yellow Devil, no doubt your portrayal would be brief and ridiculed by Mega Man's wise-cracking dialogue and quick irrational thinking, lol. He'd probably grab some electrical wires and electrocute you and say something like "What's the matter big fella? You look shocked," or something like that, lol.

Maybe the yellow devil appeared in the Japanese cartoon?
Oh well, we'll have our revenge.... sssss!  :p

Snake Man was the fourth most popular robot in the series, after Guts, Cut and Proto.

Snake Man was pretty awesome though.
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: CopShowGuy on September 14, 2010, 12:43:47 AM
Bright Man appeared in a few too many episodes for my liking.
And in one episode, Wily had Quick Man AND Shadow Man on his team.  They didn't do much.  Otherwise, Mega Man would have been destroyed.

I could never beat Snake Man in MM3. He'd always jump into me, doing heaps of damage. What's worse, Spark Shock hardly does any more damage than the Arm Cannon.

(http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u57/Skeith07/SnakeManhint.png)

Since I was fighting this dude two days ago, I noticed he loves to jump oppositely from those edges, often tricking the player into thinking he'll go the very corners then come back ((much like Gemini Man after his clone is defeated)) then immediately jumping back to return to his corner.


Trick here is to jump over him once he gets to the bottom parts of the floor and do the same again and return to your original corner while shooting from a distance. Think of this as a more maneuverable Metal Man fight. The only thing I can say is that it gets slightly tricky when he uses Search Snake in the middle part. I can't guaranteed you'll avoid damage but if you can follow the stragedy you'll mostly likely survive with about 1/4th of your health left

BTW I attempted this with only the buster cause weapon weaknesses are for noobz :p

I never found him too difficult. I think the hardest to beat with your buster in Mega Man 3 was either Spark Man or Hard Man, although I need to play it again to remember!

Bah! Spark Man was a joke in a buster run. Though Hard Man can be a pest if you can't have his fists aim a specific way to avoid damage.

Now Shadow Man and Needle Man are another story...

It's spark man's jumps that get me. It always looks like you can run under him to avoid but he always clips you. I can dodge his projectiles all day but his DAMN toes keep poking me. Just like magma man.....

I start at sparkman in mm3
Then when i beat shadowman i use the shadow blade against snakeman.
Works pretty good.
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: Snake33AU on September 15, 2010, 04:59:15 AM
HISSSS! How dare you try defeat me! lol =P

I start off with Spark Man and end with Snake Man (I used shadow blades on Gemini Man) although the second time playing it I used the buster only (except when you have to re-fight them, i kept screwing up otherwise, lol).

With Snake Man, it's good if you can own the middle part. When you're up there, you can jump over Snake Man as he's coming towards you, and then shoot him and avoid his search snakes. Then you jump on the middle part again until he comes back for you and repeat in this way.

Spark Man is the first one I go against, and he's not too hard in the sense you can really shoot the crap out of him most of the time, lol. The jumping does get tricky (like with Magma Man) in you're not sure if you should jump over him somehow or wait where you are and hope not to be stomped on.

I say hardest battle with buster only was Hard Man (I couldn't seem to dodge when his knuckles retracted, so I had to constantly rapid-fire him when I got hit to compensate) and Shadow Man (judging whether he's going to throw his shadow blades or slide was tricky).

I found that once I learned all the bosses patterns and techniques, I could defeat them a lot easier without their weaknesses. Ha ha TrueTenguMan, I said the same thing once, "weaknesses are for noobs."  :p  lolz.

Nope considering they're a type of enhancement. However if they are absolutely needed to progress through a stage, then it's an exception. Though I doubt they would pull a MM X6 like that in the classic series.

My hardest boss fight? That'll have to be buster-only Ring Man. VERY CLOSELY followed by buster-only Elec Man. And perhaps buster-only Needle Man.

And dear God, that spider boss in MMX1 was so annoying. And freaking Squid Adler w/o armor is such a pain. And Phoenix Magnion in MMZ2, oh geez. :?

lol. Just bum-rush him. Mash B to win. And you should worry less of dodging the falling leafs and try not to get hit by the Leaf Shield AND Wood Man hinself; I think he deals a crapload of physical damage. Plus, you want to start your bum-rushing right after Wood Man gets rid of the shield.

So far i did buster only on MM1-4 (i have to re-do 1 though) and MM9 - 10.
You are right, Plug Man was hard with buster only =S Not only that but I refuse to use E tanks, lol.

10 was hard but do-able, but having said that, I'm definitely gonna need their weaknesses playing on hard (esp. first run). Hey Snake, remember how you taunted Blade Man how you could easily dodge his blades and the fact he had no melee attack? Yeah well he does now on hard mode, and throws more blades! lol. Good one Snake!  :mrgreen:

Fighting Blade Man is the same on any difficulty.  You just have to get ready to jump over him whenever he lands on the ground on Hard Mode though.
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: MusashiAA on September 17, 2010, 05:22:20 PM
Fighting Blade Man H can only be described in one sentence:

5 blades.

At first, you can't even comprehend how you're supossed to dodge that, but then you realize that Blade Man's Triple Blade can't reach certain spots. Then, you'll only need to worry about dodging his melee attack.

I haven't played MM10 myself yet though.
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: Snake33AU on September 17, 2010, 06:10:49 PM
Yeah dodging the five blades is a lot harder than three, coz with three i could hide behind Blade Man when he threw them, so i didn't get hurt. With five, there's a lot more so I can't hide as easily behind. Anticipating his melee is tricky too. I can't even get to Sheep Man on hard mode.  :shock: So far I've had no luck what so ever, lol. This will take me a while on hard mode it seems.  :p

I fail at Megaman 10's hard mode. I can usually get half way through the stage but then I mess up badly.

I've had a hard time with Quickman, I cannot hit him with the Crash bombs and the Time Stopper only does half damage, and I usually die even when he's down to that point. I also have trouble with Junk man without the buster, I really don't get his pattern.

Whoops, I ment with the buster. And I see what i'm doing wrong. When he throws the junk shield I always try to jump it, not slide it. And when he does the big junk block I always jump to late.
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: Snake33AU on September 23, 2010, 12:08:22 PM
Quick Man is hard to beat, and aiming at him with the crash bombs is hard.
He was by far the hardest to beat with buster only.
His pattern varies, so sometimes you can jump and shoot him, other times you keep missing.

To compensate getting hit, if you're already lining him up, shoot the absolute living sh*t out of him while you're still flashing, lol.
It works if you somehow keep him behind an obstacle (the uneven ground) and don't jump as he might jump too, but shoot through that wall while he's still on the ground and out of range. It's hard, and random, I hope this helps. The Time Stopper could help in this, but make sure you don't stuff up and waste it >< lol.

He isn't one shotting them.  By the way everything plays out in those scenes (I just had to watch them all), it's an interactive video.  So it would do that scene with him taking out his mega buster, you actually fight the boss, then the scene where he defeats the robot plays.

So whoever recorded this is probably viewing the scenes through some playback function.

Busteronly-ing the Yellow Devil is just a test of endurance. Something that is yet to be seen in a modern MM game. Plus, it's not impossible; it's just a long and tedious fight.

Even Wily Machine 9 is a shorter fight compared to MM1's  buster-only Yellow Devil fight. And that Wily fight has 3 forms in a row.

Also, WILY CAPSULE 7. Now that's a fight.

I admit that I didn't buster only the Wily stage bosses.
I didn't know about the pause trick, but I did beat him with the Thunder Beam (just made it quicker than the buster, and i guess easier as you could get hit more often the longer you fight him).

MM7 still probably has the hardest Wily Capsule fight. Something about dodging the projectiles is hard. I only did it a few times, and that was enough to get me through it (plus E tanks and his weakness). In the times I couldn't dodge the attacks, I made sure I hit the sparky ones and not the fire ones (fire ones cause more damage).

I saw this playthrough from the devil twins and the guy paused as soon as the black hole did damage. And upon resuming you can fire again...
He managed to hit 2 times when the eye flew out.

Yeah it is hard, but coz it deals most damage, it's good if you can somehow hit him front on with the laser. Having said that, he would dodge most of the frontal assaults, but just when I thought I was about to die (running to a corner), he jumped up to stomp me and got caught by my re-bounding laser. Doc Robots also mean it's harder to jump over them, and in battles like against Air Man Doc Robot, you had to slide to avoid some of the tornadoes. Tough work.
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: MusashiAA on October 03, 2010, 05:24:47 PM
Air Man is SOOOOO easy in MM2. Even with the P. Cannon.

Actually, MM2 is quite easy in general. The hardest part of the game is Wily Stage 3, boss included. The flickering in that room is so confusing, it's like a nightmare. Apart from that, the whole game isn't too hard. And that is probably why I prefer MM3 over MM2: because MM3 is a challenge yet to be surpassed.

I could go as far as saying that MM3 is the hardest Classic MM game. I mean, 18 stages AND you get to (technically) fight 16 RMs, ALL IN THE SAME NES GAME!.

I think he attacks whenever he receives damage? So, if you mash B, he'll attack just like that. I really don't know about this one. Does Fire Man attacks when you do something like jumping or moving or firing, like Crash Man or Metal Man?

I agree about Air Man on this one. They made a song about how hard he is, but I didn't find him very hard. Even on difficult, you don't need Leaf Shield to mess him up. His weakness is arm cannon spam I think? Just make sure you dodge the mini tornadoes as best you can, and make sure he doesn't jump on top of you.

Slash.  I cannot dodge his eggs or the resulting lunge no matter how hard I try, unless I'm just really lucky.  It's a good thing he has two weaknesses, but a not so good thing that exploiting either of them causes him to immediately perform that move I hate so badly.

Quick is of course really difficult to fight without lots of Timestopper energy or an E-Tank, especially the Doc Robot version of him in 3.  I find Wood's Doc Robot edition very, very difficult, as well.  The rest are pretty hard, but not thaaaat bad.  Maybe Air should be mentioned..

Fire Man's always seemed like just an endurance test to me, who can hold out longer?  I have no idea if it's humanly possible to dodge his attacks.

Yellow Devil in MM1 without abusing the pause trick, even with Thunder Beam.

Anything in King stage 2 in MM&B.

For me, it's the Crash Bomb Lasers in Mega Man 2, the Devil Duo in Mega Man 9, and the Wily Boss fight in Mega Man 9.

Why the Crash Bomb Lasers? Cause of that darn sprite flicker. (jk)
Why the Devil Duo? Because I can never really get their pattern down. Well, actually, I can memorize it, but I always make mistakes. It's a tough battle.
Why the MM9 Wily boss? Really, the only really hard part for me is the fist part, which is bouncing the eggs. I don't know why, but I just cannot get into a good rhythm with that. If someone could give me some hints, I would really appreciate it.

MM1 YellowDevil/Duo Devil
Oh lord. These guys are easily one of the hardest bosses in Megaman. I have never beat Yellow Devil without the pause glitch, and I certainly can not beat Duo Devil. Through, I suppose I can beat Block Devil, he's kinda easier.

FireMan
He's.. Just unpredictable.

PumpMan
I can't believe I'm saying this, but yeah.
He just PISSES me off if I don't have an E-tank or Sheepman's weapon with me.

CloudMan
Sure, he's easy when in a good mood, but he still has the power to knock you off the platform. I suppose that's all.

BurstMan
Same like CloudMan, they both have a one hit kill, if you get inside the bubble and touch the spikes before you get out. (But you can always slide when that happens)

WoodMan/PlantMan/SkullMan
I just hate those shields..

And lastly, all bosses who can stop time and shoot at you.
It's just messed up, considering Megaman can't even shoot without stopping time.
But I guess it would break the game.

Actually, Flash Stopper, Bright Man's weapon, allowed you to shoot after you froze time.

Anyway, again, let Fire Man shoot first and he's easy as pie.

The Duo Devil is pretty easy for me. Hop hop hop sit hop hop or something like that.
Then, when the head's going to fly out soon, launch a black hole bomb next to the devil, when it comes out and gets damaged, pause, unpause, and shoot again.

What? Black hole is the weakness? Really..? Just wow. I used all my weapons on him when I was decided to try to finish the game..
Didn't find one.
Maybe I'll try a run tommorrw. Also, I love that ship boss/bosses that feels kinda like that submarine from McDuffin's Stage.

Ugh, I hated that whale from McDuffin's stage as X.
It was surprisingly easy as Zero though.

Atetemino I can agree with, but definetly NOT Wily Capsule in MM 8. Unless your refering to to Wily machine 8 then thats understandable considering the saw blades it releases and the cramp movement...

Actually, using the Flash Bomb and Water Balloon isn't to big of a problem with Wily Machine 8.  Also, with the saws, slide under the bouncy one and jump over the rolling one.

For woodman stage, i don't understand why so much people like the videos of this guy

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTL2VA8n_b0 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTL2VA8n_b0)

He is very slow and bad, it's not difficult to do a perfect run if you play a lot.

Now see my video (groundmanexe is my name on youtube)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZ0BtXpJxQk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZ0BtXpJxQk)

Before, my account was deleted, i put this video on youtube with the name emmanuelf06" but nobody watched my videos =(

I will put all.

ClashMan, mind you RoahmMythril just plays according to his own style choice. He's doing a perfect run NOT a perfect speed run. Besides, it's better to actually take your time on specific places instead of rushing through...

also, every wily boss on hard mode on MMPU (the bubble thing, yellow devil, clone, wily himself) is pretty impossible. I had huge difficulty beating YD on normal with PROTOMAN.

Tornado Man MM9

WHY CANT TORNADO MAN CAN BE STIFF?!?!?!?!? HE IS FUCKING HELL! God fucking thanks you get a cool weapon when you defeat this Bitch.

Huh? He wasn't that hard for me.
I had some problems on the MM10 Weapons Archive.
FrostMan still hits me at times. Also, do you think they ripped the FrostMan and SlashMan 8-bit sprites from RM7/8 FC?
The static makes it difficult for me to see.

He was hard for me,Im sure that The Weapons Archive pissed me off. But not as much as TORNADO FUCKING MAN

Quote from: "TrueTenguMan"
Tengu wants to join in :p
((Mind you these bosses were defeated using only the buster without use of Special weapons. All cept' #4 of course))

==================

Boss of Hell #1: Dive Man ((MM 4))

-All I have to say is this guy is basically a Hard Man Juggernaut. His missiles are one thing to dodge properly, though his high speed charges ((which he can direct himself in any angle mind you...)) will have you QQing in seconds. Still trying to find a strategy to take him down without popping veins :?

Boss of Hell #2 Elec Man ((MM 1))

-Simple stage if not tedious with the ladder climbing... but why is it that whenever I climb up that one ladder that leads me to his lair that he completely zaps me until my systems fry?! Well getting back to the point, despite Fire Man giving a few 3rd-degree burns with his attack, Elec Man proves to be the one who can finish me off with just three hits of his Thunder Beam and his Surge dashes without at least getting hit of my buster. Surely a boss that urges you to stay patient and focus properly.

Boss of Hell #3 Slash Man ((MM 7))

-Know what I hate? Bosses that spam one attack then leave you off guard the next. Slash Man is just ridiculous though funny when you think about it.  If you were to compare Slash with Vega from street fighter, they seem to have the tendency to use that one wall jump slash attack repetitively to aggravate you on purpose. Despite that, the falling sticky fruit he releases from the ceiling can leave you immobile whether you get hit by it or not considering they stay on the floor for a while. Had to say this boss made me sweat from it's "rinse and repeat" and unpredictable pattern.

Boss of Hell #4 Atetemino ((MM 8))

-If you ever took the time to actually beat MM 8 and venture into the Wily fortress, then my friend you will know the craptacular hell I faced when I met the bag worm known as Atetemino. Let me explain how this boss works...

Your in a room with some decent maneuverability and jumping room, the only difference is that there are three chutes that drop three things: The boss, an item crate, and a crate that shoots bombs. The only way to harm perfectly it is with the Mega Ball, and the only way to make that ball connect is if you hit it at an angle. Mind you that your doing this as it drops crates on your head and miniature versions of itself on the floor so ball spamming is predicted. Mind you too that it's always switching chutes, so mostly pray that it comes out either the left or right corner. Be warned though as it comes close to defeat, another version of itself will appear as a bomb.

Boss of Hell #5 Gemini Man ((MM 3))

-Man one of my favorite RMs in the classic series turns out to be my worst thumb ache. This guy doesn't need a large explanation mainly because we all knew we got our butts whooped at least once by his attack pattern and from his partner in crime (by that I mean his double). Fun boss nevertheless...


Funny thing, Tengu:
If you keep hitting Elecman with the Buster, he'll just flinch and he won't attack. an A.I. Bug, like Plugman in his stage.

As for the hardest boss...DEFINITELY the Yellow Devil.
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: MLDKF on November 19, 2010, 09:33:40 PM
Yellow Devil is kind of easy in the NES version if you can pull of the pause trick. But, if you play Wily Wars, he's much tougher.
Title: Re: Your most difficult Mega Man boss fights
Post by: Alucard on November 19, 2010, 10:34:39 PM
Well, his stage is enough of a Hell, not to mention just getting to the part where he opens is eye is a nightmare. After that, if you get the Pause Trick down, you're good to go.

I don't think anyone listed this boss, but..
FakeMan
His bullets are fast as hell, and that cop can JUMPJUMP!
I can't survive a couple minutes without getting killed.
I wonder while Wily hasn't made a boss like this earlier.
What's wrong with him?

Only because you're probably the hardest boss I've faced since the Robotnik Mech in Sonic 2.
