The first of the Elite Four mounts a gigantic leaping vehicle. In its first phase, a quadrupedal (four-legged) form, there are two attack patterns, the first of which consists of jumping around the screen and firing three mortar cannons as well as a forward gun, all of which have to be destroyed with your lock on weapons. Before you destroy the four targets, consider take out the mech's front legs. Their destruction is required to achieve 100% hit rate but otherwise they do not serve to damage the machine whatsoever. Occasionally the mech will make a large leap directly at you and release energy orbs all around it when it lands.

  • The first of the Elite Four mounts a gigantic leaping vehicle. In its first phase, a quadrupedal (four-legged) form, there are two attack patterns, the first of which consists of jumping around the screen and firing three mortar cannons as well as a forward gun, all of which have to be destroyed with your lock on weapons. Before you destroy the four targets, consider take out the mech's front legs. Their destruction is required to achieve 100% hit rate but otherwise they do not serve to damage the machine whatsoever. Occasionally the mech will make a large leap directly at you and release energy orbs all around it when it lands. The mortar cannons have the same crosshairs that give away their target locations that the green tank did, so like before just don't stand on a red circle. While the forward cannon doesn't have a visual warning, the fireball takes a second to hit the ground so you can see where it will land. The threat isn't the weapons so much as it is the mech itself. While you are fast enough to get out of the way before you get crushed, it can be close sometimes. The best strategy is to simply keep moving when it goes airborne so you won't be standing still when it lands. First, use heavy weapons against the legs so you can get rid of them quickly and concentrate on the things that can actually kill you. Hold down the button to lock onto the targets while you are moving. Keep sweeping the mech and when all beams are locked, release it. If you are too close to the mech the beams won't move high enough in time and hit the sides of the mech, doing no damage. A solution is to either keep your distance, or turn and face away from the boss before releasing the beams. It will take quite a few hits to destroy everything, but it's a pretty simple fight. If you are using Weapon Set D then this boss is a joke since the lock-on weapons are so powerful and can't miss. And it should go without saying, but using the Katana to destroy the leg coverings isn't recommended. Once you destroy all of the targets the boss will move to the center of the area, so avoid it like the plague.
