Ever used Shotgun Ice on Spark Mandrill in Mega Man X?

...yeah...



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Well Megaman games encourage you to use the weakness of the Robot Masters to defeat them, but yeah poor Mandrill.



Somersaulting my way to the final boss in Th Bruce Lee story. I tried everything, the game is just too hard.



Farming The Warrior end-game boss in Borderlands 2 with the Bee shield + Conference Call shotgun.  He's dead in seconds.  Even if you don't have those, you can stand in a safe zone where none of his attacks land and pick him off.  I mean, screw it, it's a game that makes you farm to get good weapons.

Killing the Bunker boss in Borderlands 2 by hiding under a large overhang.  He can't hit you there because he's a giant-ass ship flying around above you.

Killing Rhinos in Far Cry 4 by standing on a rock.  Seriously, to hell with those guys, they suck and they have zero vertical leaping ability.

Edit:  Oh yeah, this just happened a couple days ago in Divinity: Original Sin.  There is this giant spider boss that I went around.  I could see her but I didn't feel high level enough to fight her so I circled around and was going to do something else until I leveled up.  However, there is like a ledge behind her and I wondered if starting the fight from there would make it easier so I saved and tried it.  Turns out she can't reach you there with melee OR poison attacks.  I was completely safe.  My attacks wouldn't reach her, either, BUT I could summon monsters down where she was standing to attack.  She killed them pretty fast but I have three characters who can summon so I just did that until she was dead.  Cheap as hell but I love killing monsters that are higher level than I am.



The End.

In the Megaman Series in general - Multi hit weapons can kill bosses quickly. Fire the weapon, make sure it connects, then repeatedly pause and unpause the game and will register as a hit every time. Thunder Claw in Megaman 8 is an example.

In the Third Birthday for psp, the same story with laser weapon, but this time just leave it paused for a few minutes and then unpause it and whatever you hit will die instantly.
