CAVE STORY SNAKE PLUS

Unlike the other robots sent to the Island, Quote and Curly were ordered to destroy the Demon Crown rather than claim it. Heavy Press and Ballos (optional): If you're seriously that insane, Spur all the way.As they arrived later than the other robots, much of the Island was in ruin, with death and carnage everywhere. If you DO want to take down the mooks first, Machine Gun will make short work of Misery's minions, but it's useless against the Core's projectiles Undead Core: Spur users are probably better off ignoring Sue and Misery and just pumping Lvl3 beams into the Core's face with the Core hiding for 95% of the fight and Misery doing nothing as long as Sue doesn't take any damage, this makes for a mostly safe fight. Muscle Doctor: You want this guy DEAD as quickly as possible, Machine Gun can take out his bats, but by that point it could very well be too late The Machine Gun has great DPS against her her shield can only block so muchĭoctor Date: I can't really think of any advice that doesn't apply to all weapons the same Spur does the best job from a purely numerical standpoint, but Misery's a small target and you might have trouble lining up your shots between you moving, her shield rotating, and her teleporting around so much.

Misery: Snake suffers from its low rate of fire again, plus the wavy wide shots getting stopped by her 'shield'. Snake users and probably some Machine Gun users will probably stick with the Blade for this, not that it's a bad weapon for the job Machine Gun does a decent job as well, if you got it leveled back up. Red Ogre (optional): Spur will annihilate this guy in about four well-placed beams through his face. Ironhead: If you're this far on Hard Mode, you don't need my help to kill Ironhead Of course the ideal weapon is Missile Launcher, but, well, Hard Mode The Blade's Spirit of King has great coverage and can get rid of projectiles and push back all the mini-cores, though it might lack reach on its own. Snake can shoot through platforms and has plenty of reach. Machine Gun can get you out of the water or out of a bind if you're going for a 'Save Curly' run (if not, the Booster v* can do it instead). But again, the Blade is yor main weapon for this part of the game.Ĭore: Everything here has its upsides in this otherwise nightmarish fight. Your primary weapon will probably be the Blade here too, but the Machine Gun MIGHT give you some much-needed anti-projectile coverageīalrog (boulder chamber): Machine Gun can shoot down his missiles a tiny bit better. Monster X: Snake suffers here, it just doesn't fire fast enough.

Puu Black: You're using the Blade for this fight either way However, the ideal strategy is to get Toroko stuck on an upward slope such that her blocks can't hurt you, whereupon it doesn't actually matter which gun you have since Fireballs and Machine Gun will both reach her

Rabid Toroko: This fight is awkward regardless, and significantly more awkward without the Machine Gun with how slow the fireballs are. The Machine Gun makes him even easier, but with the Fireball it only takes slightly longer Omega: Omega is already easy, even on hard. Let's break down the bosses where the choice actually matters:
