8. WARP-DRIVE JET
=================
LOCATION: Planet Daxx
ATTACKS: Homing Rockets
Sweep Laser
RECOMMENDED WEAPONS: Megaturret Gun
Annihilator
N60 Storm
After running away from it’s swarm of seeking rockets throughout the
stage you finally get to take the Warp-Drive Jet (Not official name)
head on. You fight this battle on a circular floating platform, and the
Jet will blast away the outer ring as the fight goes on. Anyway the Jet
really only has two attacks: A small swarm of heat-seeking rockets, and
a laser which sweeps across the ring. The rockets aren’t that tough to
avoid, as they mark their target much like the rockets you’ve faced
before. They fire shortly after locking though, so keep moving
throughout the fight. And obviously stay away from the edge of the
ring. The laser is very easy to avoid; Just side-jump over it. Anyway
on to the battle: The most obvious thing you’ll notice is that the Jet
teleports around the ring. A lot. After firing a rocket swarm the jet
will immediately summon a black hole, warp out, and the reappear
somewhere else around the ring. Thing essentially means that you need
to be blasting it while evading it’s attacks, because you’ll never get
a good opening. Megaturrets are very handy, as you can drop them down
and then just focus on avoiding rockets while they bombard the Jet. The
Annihilator is a good primary weapon that wears the Jet down easily,
and if you run out of ammo (Be sure to have stocked up at the Gadgetron
vendor earlier), the N60 Storm should finish the job.
