III. Boss Strategies
===============================================================================

You should take the bosses out in this order: Start with Fire Man, then
Cut Man, Elec Man, Ice Man, Flash Man, Quick Man, Bubble Man and at last Heat
Man.

~ Fire Man

Weakness: Ice Slaher
Get Weapon: Fire Storm

Fire Man is easy just with your Arm Cannon, but if you have the Ice Slaher, use
it. Just jump over his fire and shoot him. Very Easy.

~ Cut Man

Weakness: Fire Storm
Get Weapon: Rolling Cutter

This guy is quite hard. Jump over Cut Man's Rolling Cutters and Fire away with
the Fire Storm. Try to make the Fire shield hit him.

~ Elec Man

Weakness: Rolling Cutter
Get Weapon: Thunder Beam

This fight is easy if you have the Rolling Cutter. Just fire it at Elec Man and
the Cutter will hit him one or more times.

~ Ice Man

Weakness: Thunder Beam
Get Weapon: Ice Slasher

Just fire the Thunder Beam at him. Don't care about his Ice Slashers. You should
be able to defeat him in three shots!

Next you will fight the last four bosses without even having a chance to save.
Enker apears after the four bosses is killed. This is the layout of the
teleport hatch:
__        __
|QU|      |BU|
|--|  __  |--|
|FL| |EN| |HE|
|__| |__| |__|

QU = Quick Man
FL = Flash Man
BU = Bubble Man
HE = Heat Man
EN = Enker

~ Flash Man

Weakness: Atomic Fire
Get Weapon: Time Stopper

Get over him and fire with either Ice Slasher or your Arm Cannon.

~ Quick Man

Weakness: Time Stopper
Get Weapon: Quick Boomerang

Use Time Stopper in the beggining of the battle. It will drain half his energy.
Use your Arm Cannon or Ice Slasher to finish him off.

~ Bubble Man

Weakness: Quick Boomerang
Get Weapon: Bubble Lead

Hold down the B button and use the Quick Boomerang. Not hard at all!

~ Heat Man

Weakness: Bubble Lead
Get Weapon: Atomic Fire

Shoot a Bubble at him and he will teleport to your location. Then shoot at him
and repeat this, he won't be able to hit you if you do so.

~ Enker

Weakness: None
Get Weapon: Mirror Buster

Use your Arm Cannon because it's the only thing that damage him. He will absorb
the damage he has taken from your shots and will fire away a beam that will be
harder to dodge if you have hit him with too many shots.

~ Dr. Wily (1st Form)

Weakness: None
Get Weapon: None

Stay at the middle space and dodge the enemies. It's really hard. Charge the
Atomic Fire and fire at him.

~ Dr. Wily (2nd Form)

Weakness: Mirror Buster
Get Weapon: None

Use the Mirror Buster to reflect his laser beams and dodge the claw attack.
