new contributor recognition section (Thanks to brynjarr for being the first
contributor!)

Version 1.2 - 5/29/03 - Just got a lot of contributor stuff (Thanks to
everyone who contributed!), so I'm just adding new strategies and correcting
mistakes.

Version 1.4 - 5/30/03 - Contributor strategy, corrections, and Strategy
Summaries Section added

Version 1.5 - 5/31/03 - I can't believe I actually forgot a boss! Power plant
Agent added to Ghost, and FAQ Notes/Basic Strategies Section added

Version 1.6 - 6/1/03 - Just some little corrections, contributor strategy and
e-mails, and some new Weapon Drop info for the SWAT chopper, Cujo, and Cain and
Abel

Version 1.65 - 6/2/03 - Contributor stuff (still... need... MORE!!!), M240 info
for Agent Chopper, and small Agent on Board update.

Version 1.66 - 6/4/03 - Just 2 new e-mails that I'm adding. Updates won't
start up again until Tuesday, because I'm away this weekend. Keep writing
though! I still need more Contributor-Strategies (Thanks AGAIN to Pajamas88 for
another grammatical error)!

Version 1.7 - 6/9/03 - I'm back again, so here are some new updates: more
grammatical corrections (thanks to Pajamas88), sword-glitch info for Vlad
(thanks to christoph_wilson_yey), a cheap new attack (thanks to sean.corbell),
and some new strategies (thanks to Matt Moses). There may be some mistakes
(credit missing... etc.) because I'm really tired. E-mail me if you notice
anything weird.

Version 1.71 - 6/12/03 - Just some contributor stuff, little changes all over
the place. If anyone has an idea for a new section, just e-mail me!

Version 1.8 - 6/14/03 - Just some little corrections (Thanks to Pajamas88 for
the typos... as usual). Also, a little info on fighting Agents (Thanks to morisond
for the suggestion). If you have any tips on fighting Agents, e-mail me. Once
again, I'm trying to think of adding some new sections, so if you have an idea,
e-mail me. Finally, I'm done with Enter the Matrix (Waiting for Warcraft III:
The Frozen Throne), so updates are going to slow down. But keep sending new
strategies, as I only have about 5!

Version 1.81 - 6/16/03 - Some new Agent tips, including ways to kill them!
Also, the Agent section's layout has been changed and I added in categories so
it's easier to find a tip you need. The game's been out for over a month now, so
updates are going to slow down a lot.

Version 1.82 - 6/17/03 - Just some new tips for fighting Niobe's Power Plant
Agents that I forgot about, new focus-growing info, and a good combo attack.
Also, I'd like to add that if you have anything to tell me, please e-mail me
instead of instant messaging me. Thanks in advance, everyone

Version 1.83 - 6/19/03 - Just thought I'd add in that besides the grenade
launcher, Agents are also killed by the GP-25 Chloro-Bromo. Also, I added in the
fact that you cannot cheat during the Agent on Board fight. That's all

Version 1.85 - 6/24/03 - Just thought I'd add in an extra tip for fighting
the Agent Helicopter, and correcting something wrong that I wrote about killing
Smith. Contributions have just about stopped, meaning that this FAQ is just
about done! If you have any final ideas/strategies, you better e-mail them to me
before the updates stop coming!

Version 1.86 - 6/30/03 - Well, I guess I was wrong about this FAQ being done!
I finally got some new contributor strategy so obviously I'm adding that in.
Also, a little correction. Also, I'm fixing up the layout a bit. Finally, for
those of you who misread the Contributor Info section, I'm reinstating these
rules: Don't instant message me, don't ask me for help in sections of the game
besides bosses, and make sure you put Enter the Matrix (Or something similar) in
the subject! More info in the Contributor Info section. Thanks in advance!

2. I N T R O D U C T I O N
===========================
Hello! My name is Dandude776 and this is my Enter the Matrix, Boss FAQ! It's
Memorial Day, and I'm bored out of my mind, so I wrote this FAQ. As everyone
OBVIOUSLY knows, bosses are the best part of any game, and Enter the Matrix has
some awesome bosses. However, some of these bosses are very tough, and I had
some free time on my hands, so I decided to make this guide and help all those
in need. Yes, I do have too much free time. One cool thing about this game is
that Niobe and Ghost each have a few bosses that only they fight, although for
some reason, Ghost's bosses seem cooler to me. Once note about the FAQ: add 1 to
each difficulty if you're playing on hard mode, and subtract 1 from each
difficulty if you're playing on easy mode. Also, I just copied and pasted the
same strategies for the bosses that both Ghost and Niobe fight. Any new user-
submitted strategy will be greatly appreciated, so please e-mail me. My e-mail
address is [email protected]. Check the contributor info section for more
details. Anyway, enjoy the FAQ! I hope it helps you beat this awesome game!

===========================================================
3. F A Q N O T E S & B A S I C S T R A T E G I E S
===========================================================
These are just some notes about the FAQ and basic strategies to use on every
boss.
*Add 1 to each boss's difficulty if you're playing on Hard Mode
*Subtract 1 from each boss's difficulty if you're playing on Easy Mode
*Focus a lot when fighting bosses: They increase accuracy, agility, and strength
*Don't be afraid to run from a boss and regain focus if you're in trouble
(thanks to xtreme_xboarder for correcting my mistake. YOU DON'T REGAIN HEALTH
DURING BOSS FIGHTS)
*Try to fight enemies in hand-to-hand combat if at all possible. Fighting
without weapons will increase your focus-meter over time, which is helpful in
later boss fights (most of the later bosses fight hand-to-hand)
*Your maximum focus increases every time you kill an Agent (Thanks to kerbeck)
*Fight each boss at least once on your own before using the FAQ, and learn each
boss's patterns and attacks
*Focus-throws are very useful for killing every boss besides the SWAT chopper
and the Agent Chopper (thanks to Matt Moses)
*If you want to be cheap and suck a lot of the fun out of killing bosses, just
mash the action button while facing a hand-to-hand boss to block and counter all
of their attacks (thanks to sean.corbell)
*Throughout the FAQ, "focus" and "bullet-time", mean the same thing, just in
case you didn't know
*For hand-to-hand bosses, use this excellent combo (Thanks to Sk8er_punk_16):
Back + Punch (Don't focus)
Back + Punch (Don't focus)
Back + Punch (Focus)
Back + Punch (Focus)
Forward + Kick (Focus if you want)
*CONTRIBUTE! If you have anything to say, tell me! I know I say this a lot
throughout the FAQ, but I could really use some Contributor stuff. If you have a
different method for beating a boss, tell me, and I'll put it up here!

=====================
4. G H O S T F A Q
=====================
I personally prefer Ghost over Niobe, but then again, there aren't many
differences beside the driving segments. Ghost's bosses are cooler, because he
gets to battle against helicopters. Now, on with the fights!

==================================
4.1 S W A T H E L I C O P T E R
==================================
Level: Airport
Part: North Point 2
Recommended Weapons: MP5,
92FS Pistols,
Stun Grenades
M240
Difficulty: 6/10

Here we go: the first boss. The SWAT team helicopter is actually pretty
difficult for the games first boss enemy, but once you get used to the patterns
(thanks to CoBlaze for the correction), this fight's a breeze. First of all, I
hope you've been conserving your MP5 ammo, as you'll need it badly. Also, it's
very important to bring in some stun grenades. The helicopters pattern is to
make one pass while firing the machinegun, turn around, fly back WITHOUT FIRING,
and hover over the room while 4 SWAT team guys rappel down. To win, you have to
get out of the safe zone and fire at the helicopter while it has the gun facing
away from you. Basically as soon as the fight begins, turn left and rush behind
the curved part of the wall for cover from the helicopter's machinegun. When
you're about halfway to the curve, focus, otherwise the bullets will hit you
hard. Once you're behind the curve, stand at the edge, and load your MP5. As
soon as the bullets stop, rush around the bend and towards the window. Now,
quickly get into 1st person view, focus, aim at the chopper, and fire like
there's no tomorrow. Make sure to strafe so you can stay pointed directly at the
chopper, and don't forget to focus because it increases your accuracy. Keep
firing until the chopper flies behind the fountain. You should be able to get in
one or 2 full clips.
Now get out of 1st person view, and rush back to the curve while throwing a stun
grenade towards the center of the room. If you time it right, the grenade will
explode as soon as the SWAT guys fall, hopefully killed them. If some of them
survive, switch to the 92FS pistols to conserve MP5 ammo, and wipe them out. I
like to do focus-cartwheels (Focus+Fire+Strafe+Jump), but it's your choice. If
you do cartwheel, spin over behind the fountain barricades, and wait to see if
anyone is still left. If it's 2 or more, do another cartwheel, but if it's just
one, come out and do some kung-fu. Luckily, the SWAT Helicopter does not attack
during your fight with the sentries. Once they're gone, quickly pick up the
ammo, switch back to the MP5 and duck behind the curve again. You'll have to
repeat this process a few times before you destroy the helicopter. One thing to
watch out for is accidentally using your MP5 on the guards. If you run out of
ammo, your best bet is to not attack the helicopter for the next run, and then
kill the guards for more ammo. If you have trouble killing the guards, consider
trying to use the MP5 against them. As long as you collect more ammo than you
lose, you'll be fine (Thanks to Mxtream23). The good thing about this battle is
that you can always rest to regain focus behind the curved wall. As soon as the
helicopter goes down, be ready because a small SWAT team will break through the
door near the curved wall, and they may catch you by surprise.

*UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL STRATEGY* (Thanks to MetroidFanatic for this one)
This is it: Contributor strategy number 2! Keep em' coming!
Well, as obvious as it may seem, I found that you left out an easy and obvious
way to beat the SWAT helicopter. It helps IMMENSLEY if you hold the strafe
button while holding bullet time. Running just in front of the helicopter's
bullets, and hitting him easily without being hit is easy. Plus you can let your
Bullet Time recharge on the run back to the other side. Cutting the time of
defeat almost in half.

*WEAPON DROP STRATEGY* (Thanks to I Hate Robots)
Contributor strategy #3 has arrived! This one employs the great weapon-drop
hack, and makes the SWAT chopper much easier to beat. Keep e-mailing me new
strategies!
To make the fight easier, you must first go to the "hacking" option. Unlock
drive B (see another hacking FAQ for details), and unlock the "drop" feature.
This feature allows you to drop weapons around the map. Type in "DROP PNSRZ10".
This drops an M240 heavy machine gun with 150 rounds into the north point level,
the short level that preceded the boss fight (the level where you break through
the customs room). When you escape the customs room and enter the large
concourse area, look for a desk with a few computers on it on the left side of
the room. The machine gun is there. If you enter the boss fight with the M240
(or PARA if you've ever played counter strike :)) you can use your strategy, but
you can cut down the helicopter in the first or second pass. It makes the fight
much easier!

*FOUNTAIN BARRICADE STRATEGY* (Thanks to me!)
I was just messing around during this fight and found a new strategy. When the
battle begins, instead of running behind the wall, just hide behind the fountain
on the right. Unbelievably, the fountain is impervious to the SWAT Helicopter's
chain gun. How convenient! You may need to crouch before you find the safe spot.
Then just use the normal strategy (Pop out and focus-shoot in 1st person).

====================================
4.2 A G E N T H E L I C O P T E R
====================================
Level: Airport
Part: Control Tower 2
Recommended Weapons: SG-552
MP5
M240
Entry Shotgun
Difficulty: 3/10 (with SG-552 or M240), 9/10 (without SG-552 or M240)

*M240 NOTE*
If you still have left over ammo for the M240 heavy machine gun, use it here t
rip up the chopper fast. For info about the M240 heavy machine gun, check the
SWAT Helicopter strategy above.

Hopefully you have the SG-552 right now! As you can tell from the difficulty,
not having the SG-552 makes this boss insanely hard. During the sniper-section
from before, the SWAT guard on the catwalk was carrying this great weapon. If
you picked it up, congratulations! This boss is a piece of cake! When the battle
begins, run backwards and hide behind the pillar on the left. Back up against
the wall and peek out the left side. When the agent flies down to blast you, pop
out and let the SG-552 rip. You'll blow up the Agent's chopper in a few seconds!
Yay! Battle finished! Unfortunately, you may not have the SG-552. OK, the battle
is much more difficult, but it is still beatable. The MP5 is your weapon of
choice, and the Entry Shotgun is a good backup. You need to use the same
strategy for the beginning: run backwards behind the pillar, and pop out with
the MP5 to attack. Keep firing until the Agent flies away. Now the Agent will
pop out on another side to attack. Here's the pattern:
1
____________________
| _ S _ |
3 | |_|C B|_| | 2
| A |
| _ _ |
| |_| |_| |
|___________________|
The S is where you start, the 1, 2, and the 3 show the Agent's positions, and
the A, B, and C show where you should stand during each attack. As I said, you
should start out moving to spot A in order to avoid the Agent who hovers at
point 1. Pop out and fire on the LEFT SIDE. That's important, because moving out
on the right will put you right in the Agent's line of fire. Once the Agent
flies off, rush over to point B, which will be on the right. You'll have to
repeat the same attack, and then move to point C where the pattern repeats.
After point C, move back to point A and start over. The tricky part of this
battle is that after one time through the pattern, a SWAT guard will come up the
stairs. Continue to hide behind the pillar, and shoot at the guard. If the Agent
moves, make sure you do too, as the guard might distract you until the Agent
finishes you off. Once the guard is down, make for the Agent to move before
running over to grab the extra ammo, which you will need. Eventually you'll win,
and the Agent will blow up.

*PILLAR-TO-PILLAR STRAFE-AND-FIRE METHOD* (Thanks to Wesley)
Here's one more strategy to use if you don't have the SG-223 or M240: Instead of
just waiting behind a pillar, and leaning out to fire, as soon as the Agent
drops down, run over behind another pillar while still firing. The Entry Shotgun
works wonders in this situation. Also, if you have trouble running and gunning,
try doing a Focus-Cartwheel instead (Strafe+Focus+Jump+Fire).

*STAIR STRATEGY* (Big thanks to Jackass051 for this detailed strategy)
Need help fighting the Agent? Here's a detailed method, courtesy of Jackass051!
For the agent helicopter just walk over to the right side of the spot where the
stairs get covered up (you previously see it before you shoot the plane's tire),
stand your ground, and just (focus) shoot the helicopter. DO NOT MOVE AND STAY
IN FIRST PERSON AIMING. I put 'focus' in parentheses because you really don't
have to, but sometimes it's a good idea. If you stand on the covered stairs spot
where I said before, then the helicopter's gun does not have a good angle to
shoot you at. There is a metal bar (that holds the glass together) that blocked
the bullets and that really helped a lot (since I was on the covered stairs!).
If you don't blow up the Agent the first time and he goes to the other side,
just focus-fire until you finish him off.

============
4.3 C U J O
============
Level: Chateau
Part: The Dungeon
Recommended Weapons: Crossbow, Sword
Difficulty: 6/10

*WEAPON DROP NOTE* (Thanks to me!)
After I Hate Robots e-mailed me about the weapon drop for the SWAT helicopter, I
remembered to check for other useful weapon drops, and found 2 particular nice
ones for the Chateau. This one works only for Ghost: Type (in hacking) "Drop
ZKHBD10". This will drop a crossbow and some other nice weapons in the Secret
Passage section. The crossbow will give you 2 extra shots for your bow, which
can be used to kill the dobermen Cujo sends at you easily.

Cujo can be a pain, but he's really just a souped up version of those undead
freaks you've been facing up to here. He's is good with counterattacks so be
ready. Also, it's good to come into this battle with a fully-loaded crossbow.
Get up close to Cujo and do lots of focus-attacks. A good tactic is to use sweep
kicks (Down+Kick), and then kick him while he's down. Try to get him close to
the wall of the pit so you can do the great wall kicks (just focus+kick while
near a wall). Continue beating him up, until he jumps out of the pit and
releases three more dobermen to attack you. If you've beaten the game you can
activate the sword (hacking mode, read a hacking FAQ for details) and now is a
great time to use it. The sword is steel, and can therefore be used to kill
Dobermen in one slice (!), so you can waste these three easily. Unfortunately,
the sword doesn't kill Cujo in one hit, although it does do big damage (Big
thanks to xtreme_xboarder for reminding me about the sword). If you don't have
the sword, use the crossbow to quickly kill two of the dobermen, and then move
in the kill the last one. As usual, just keep punching him until he gets dizzy,
and then stake him! If you used up the crossbow in an earlier fight, you'll have
to fight all of the dobermen at once. The best way to win is move around so that
all three are in front of you (don't get surrounded!). Then, so some big focus-
kicks to knock them all down, and focus on killing one at a time. If the other
dobermen interrupt you, just kick them out of the way, and keep working on one
freak. Keep moving while attacking the three dobermen, because Cujo will take
out a sub-machinegun that he's not afraid to use. If you stand still, Cujo will
pump you full of lead, which is not good. Therefore, it's good to focus as much
as possible so it's easier to dodge Cujo's bullets. Once all three dobermen are
down, Cujo comes down again, but this time he's even faster. Try to rush him and
get in a big combo. Once his health-meter is empty, you just have to stun him
and then stab him through the heart to finish the job.

==============================
4.4 C A I N A N D A B E L
==============================
Level: Chateau
Part: Cain and Abel
Recommended Weapon: None
Difficulty: 2/10

*WEAPON DROP NOTE* (thanks to me!)
After I Hate Robots e-mailed me about the weapon drop for the SWAT helicopter, I
remembered to check for other useful weapon drops, and found 2 particular nice
ones for the Chateau. This one works only for Ghost: Type (in hacking) "Drop
ZKHBD10". This will drop a Street-Sweeper-Shotgun and some other nice weapons in
the Secret Passage section. While the shotgun doesn't work on all of the other
undead exiles you've been facing up till now, it can be used well against Cain
and Abel. When you're lined up with a cell-door, just fire the shotgun to knock
them both back. If you're lucky, one will get caught.

*THROWING STRATEGY* (thanks to Matt Moses)
Matt Moses sent me this great technique which makes beating Cain and Abel much
easier: When you're lined up with them and a cell, instead of kicking, just
focus throw. This is rarely countered, and makes it easier to knock them into
the cell.

This isn't a real fight, because Cain and Abel are both invincible, but you
still have to deal with them. These two guys will gang up on you and constantly
surround you, so try to get your back up against a wall, so can get them both at
once. Because these guys are indestructible, the goal of the fight is to try and
incapacitate them so you'll have time to escape with Niobe. And lucky for you,
the other prisoners in the jail are pissed off about Cain and Abel imprisoning
them. Try to line it up so that Cain and Abel are in between you and one of the
cells. Give them a tough, focused, kick, and if you were lined up right, the
prisoner inside the cell will grab either Cain or Abel and hold them up against
the bars! Once this happens, move over to another cell and kick the remaining
guy into the door. Once both guys are restrained, pick up Niobe and rush for the
exit. If you took to long to restrain the second guy, they may catch up to you
and force you to repeat the process. Eventually, you and Niobe will escape.

==================
4.5 T R I N I T Y
==================
Level: Zen Garden
Part: Trinity and Ghost
Recommended Weapons: None
Difficulty: 5/10

This fight is fun. It's pretty much just you and Trinity in your Zen garden, so
fight like mad. Trinity isn't that tough, and the fasted way to win is just to
rush her and pound her with combos. Kicks are good, because Trinity can easily
block your punches. Also, watch out for Trinity's counterattacks. Just keep
focusing for better attacks, and rush Trinity a lot. If you have trouble
connecting your strikes, roll around and attack from the backside. Basically
just use the same strategy you used against Cujo and you'll be fine. Also, try
leading Trinity to other areas of the garden, because you can wreck just about
everything! Take that garden down!

*LAME, WIMPY STRATEGY* (Thanks to Rabies for reminding me about this)
If you REALLY can't beat Trinity (who is fairly easy), just stand there like an
idiot and let her wail on you. You still get to move on to the next stage, and
you get to watch a cool FMV! If you've already beaten Trinity before, try the
stage again and let her win so you can watch the FMV. If you're too lazy to beat
Trinity, use this lame strategy.

==============
4.6 A G E N T
==============
(THANKS TO cott_matthew FOR REMINDING ME ABOUT THIS GUY)
Level: Power Plant
Part: Core Control Room 2
Recommended Weapons: Offensive Grenades, UMP
Difficulty: 5/10

*THROWING STRATEGY* (thanks to Matt Moses)
Matt Moses sent me this great technique which makes beating the Agent much
easier: When you're lined up with them him and a sparking control panel, instead
of kicking, just focus throw. This is rarely countered, and makes it easier to
knock them him into the electricity.

First off, thanks to cott_matthew for reminding me about this Agent. Now you may
or may not count this as a boss, but I do. Anyway, the easiest way to "kill"
this Agent comes before he arrives. While the SWAT teams are attacking you
before this, throw a few Offensive Grenades to them, and rip up the place with
the UMP. Hopefully you'll blow up some of the control panels and you'll see them
start sparking. Once all of the SWAT guys are down, the Agent will enter the
room. If you've already played as Niobe and beat Agent on Board, then you know
how these guys fight. To knock him down, just keep focus kicking him and using
sweep-kicks. Eventually the Agent will fall. As soon as this happens, start
kicking him towards one of the sparking control panels, and when the Agent gets
up kick him into the sparks. He'll get electrocuted, and the fight will be over.

================
4.7 S E R A P H
================
Level: Chinatown
Part: Seraph's Tea House
Recommended Weapons: None
Difficulty: 7/10

Oh yeah, like fighting someone will really help to see if they're worthy of
meeting the Oracle. Eh. Well, you have to deal with this guy anyway, whether you
want to or not. Seraph is a real kung-fu master, and he counters and blocks much
better than Trinity. Also, the arena is much smaller, so you can't really run
away to rest. As soon as the battle begins, focus and run over to Seraph. He
won't be prepared, so you can give him one or two good, focused kicks. Make sure
that you kick him while he's down. Now, focusing is very important during this
battle, because Seraph will counter many of your moves. Try to do lots of wall
kicks, and always make sure to follow up each attack with a combo. Like with
Trinity, punches are a little to slow, so kicks will be your main attack. And
again, if you're having trouble, roll around to his backside (focus+action), and
attack from the flank. Try not to push Seraph up against a wall, because there
he will fall down and be able to get up and counter strike. You can get longer
combos if Seraph is still standing. By the time Seraph's health gets low, he'll
get really angry, so be ready. Eventually you'll beat him.

*COUNTER-ATTACK STRATEGY* (Thanks to Olivier Berneche)
Here it is: The first Contributor strategy! Want to get your strategy up here?!
Then e-mail it me! Anyway, here's Oliver Berneche's great strategy for putting
the smack down on Seraph:
I've found a new way to beat Seraph quite easily: The fact is that he is just
too good, only some hits in a damn long combo seemed to land, and when he
counter-attacks, you are not ready to block the hit. Here's the trick: just
stand in front of him and just block/use the action button each time he starts
to punch/kick/grab you (even easier if you press randomly the focus button to
slow his moves). This way, the combat ends quickly (counter-attacks just deals
too much damage to him, since he strikes hard; in normal mode, less then 10 will
suffice) and with this technique I have just been hit once. Now you can meet
the Oracle without sweating!

*ENDING NOTES* (Thanks to white_smoke for telling me about the alternate ending)
After submitting the first version of this FAQ I realized that I forgot
something, so here it is: If you lose to Seraph, you DO NOT have to fight him
again. Instead, you will skip both the Vertigo level and the Chinatown level.
Essentially, you skip to the hovercraft stage, totally missing a great part of
the game. Therefore, I encourage you to reset and try Seraph again until you
win. With practice, you can take the tea-house tyrant down and get to play
through two of the game's coolest levels. HOWEVER: if you really want to
experience all that this game has to offer, you should copy your save and
purposely lose to Seraph on one game. This will enable you to see a SLIGHTLY
different ending to the game.

=============
5. N I O B E
=============
I don't know why, but I don't like Niobe as much as Ghost. I just don't enjoy
the driving segments as much as the shooting ones, and for some reason, Ghost's
levels seem a little cooler. Oh well. Niobe fights a few different bosses from
Ghost, but hers aren't as cool (no helicopter fights!). Oh well, they're still
good. Enjoy the FAQ!
==============
5.1 A G E N T
==============
Level: Airport
Part: Agent on Board
Recommended Weapons: MP5
Difficulty: 4/10

*NO-CHEATING NOTE*
I was checking out the ETM Board (On GameFAQs) today, and found someone having a
problem with Axel blowing up at the start of this stage, so I thought I'd add
this in: You CANNOT cheat for before this fight. For those of you who don't
know, using the unlimited health, unlimited focus, or unlimited ammo cheats,
causes a bomb to appear at the start of select levels. Normally you can just
dodge the bomb, but in this case the bomb will drop next to Axel, killing him
and ending the mission. The morale of the story: Don't cheat.

This Agent isn't that difficult, but don't worry, as you'll get to deal with the
more difficult Agent Smiths later. Note the plural on Smiths (burly brawl,
anyone?). Now back to the fight at hand. Because Agents are pretty much
indestructible, the goal of this fight is to kick the Agent off the plane
(Thanks to Pajamas88 for the correction). Lucky for you, this is a cargo plane
whose back opens up! Now, when the battle begins you'll see that the back door
is shut. However, there's a shiny green button on a pedestal nearby. Now what
could that do? Let's find out! Unfortunately, the Agent begins right in front of
the button. Run towards him while firing the MP5 to make him dodge it ("Dodge
this." "Okay!"), and then focus-kick him in the face! Ha! While he's down press
the shiny green button to open up the hatch, and run over there. After a second,
the Agent will come to get you. When he arrives, use the MP5 again, and once
again kick him. This time though, kick him while he's down to bounce him towards
the edge of the hatch. Unfortunately, this plane has no pilot, so on normal and
hard mode turbulence will cause the Agent to bounce back into the plane. On
easy, you can just shove him out. Continue repeating this until you eventually
kick the Agent out of the plane, and then sit back and watch the movie.
*HEALTH NOTE*
If at any time during the battle you need health, remember that in the front of
the plane (with all the boxes and crates) there is a med kit. Run up and grab it
if you ever need it.

5.2 V L A D ( P A R T O N E )
==================================
Level: Chateau
Part: The Attic
Recommended Weapons: None
Difficulty: 4/10

After dealing with three vamps, this crazy goth will join the fight. Man, is he
creepy. The trick to beating him is to do lots of sweep-kicks and wall-kicks.
Don't punch or kick without focusing, because he'll just counter attack you.
After you attack him a few times, back off to dodge his counters, and then move
in again. Sometimes, he will just stand still to draw you in before he charges.
Just move in, circle, and whack him. After hurting him a little, he'll run off,
and wait for a rematch. Don't worry, he'll be back.

==================================
5.3 V L A D ( P A R T T W O )
==================================
Level: Chateau
Part: Persephone's Bedroom
Recommended Weapons: None
Difficulty: 4/10

This fight is basically the same as last time, except now you can see Vlad's
health-bar. Use the same strategy: sweep kicks, wall kicks, and dodges. Also, if
he tries to punch you, counter him. Just keep circling him and evading his
attacks before you move in for the kill. After a while you will whittle him down
and he'll start charging you more often. Since the room is so large, don't be
afraid to back off and regain health and focus. Eventually, he'll get dizzy and
you can stab him.

*GLITCH CAUTION* (Thanks to Brynjarr)
DO NOT finish Vlad off the second time with the sword, if you do the game will
glitch heavily and when you try to finish him off with the stake (like every
other baddie) it won't work, and instead you'll continually use the sword. The
only way to solve this is to quit and not use the sword at all. This doesn't
happen with any other bosses as far as I know.
For those of you who don't know, the sword is a secret weapon that you unlock
after beating the game once. It is normally a great weapon which kills bad guys
quickly, but in this case you should not equip it in Hacking mode before
fighting Vlad (thanks to Pajamas88 for YET ANOTHER typo correction). Unlike
other weapons, the sword is not equipped, and is used automatically when ever
you use certain attacks. Therefore, if you were using it in earlier sections of
the Chateau, make sure you save and reset before fighting Vlad. Then just load
the fight and take him down.

*WAYS TO AVOID THE VLAD-SWORD GLITCH!* (thanks to christoph_wilson_yey for being
the first to tell me this, and sean.corbell for telling me this again shortly
afterwards)
Here are two ways to avoid the sword-glitch by killing Vlad with the stake:
1. Run around behind him and try to throw him. Most of the time, you will end up
doing a leg-sweep instead, and finishing Vlad off with the stake.
2. Do lots of throws. Eventually, you will automatically leg-seep and execute
the stake thrust.

============
5.4 C U J O
============
Level: Chateau
Part: The Dungeon
Recommended Weapons: Crossbow, Sword
Difficulty: 6/10

*WEAPON DROP NOTE* (Thanks to me!)
After I Hate Robots e-mailed me about the weapon drop for the SWAT helicopter, I
remembered to check for other useful weapon drops, and found 2 particular nice
ones for the Chateau. This one works only for Niobe: Type (in hacking) "Drop
JDZMT10". This will drop a crossbow and some other nice weapons in the
Persephone's Bedroom section. The crossbow will give you 2 extra shots for your
bow, which can be used to kill the dobermen Cujo sends at you easily.

Cujo can be a pain, but he's really just a souped up version of those undead
freaks you've been facing up to here. He's is good with counterattacks so be
ready. Also, it's good to come into this battle with a fully-loaded crossbow.
Get up close to Cujo and do lots of focus-attacks. A good tactic is to use sweep
kicks (Down+Kick), and then kick him while he's down. Try to get him close to
the wall of the pit so you can do the great wall kicks (just focus+kick while
near a wall). Continue beating him up, until he jumps out of the pit and
releases three more dobermen to attack you. If you've beaten the game you can
activate the sword (hacking mode, read a hacking FAQ for details) and now is a
great time to use it. The sword is steel, and can therefore be used to kill
Dobermen in one slice (!), so you can waste these three easily. Unfortunately,
the sword doesn't kill Cujo in one hit, although it does do big damage (Big
thanks to xtreme_xboarder for reminding me about the sword). If you don't have
the sword, use the crossbow to quickly kill two of the dobermen, and then move
in the kill the last one. As usual, just keep punching him until he gets dizzy,
and then stake him! If you used up the crossbow in an earlier fight, you'll have
to fight all of the dobermen at once. The best way to win is move around so that
all three are in front of you (don't get surrounded!). Then, so some big focus-
kicks to knock them all down, and focus on killing one at a time. If the other
dobermen interrupt you, just kick them out of the way, and keep working on one
freak. Keep moving while attacking the three dobermen, because Cujo will take
out a sub-machinegun that he's not afraid to use. If you stand still, Cujo will
pump you full of lead, which is not good. Therefore, it's good to focus as much
as possible so it's easier to dodge Cujo's bullets. Once all three dobermen are
down, Cujo comes down again, but this time he's even faster. Try to rush him and
get in a big combo. Once his health-meter is empty, you just have to stun him
and then stab him through the heart to finish the job.

==============================
5.5 C A I N A N D A B E L
==============================
Level: Chateau
Part: Cain and Abel
Recommended Weapon: None
Difficulty: 2/10

*WEAPON DROP NOTE* (thanks to me!)
After I Hate Robots e-mailed me about the weapon drop for the SWAT helicopter, I
remembered to check for other useful weapon drops, and found 2 particular nice
ones for the Chateau. This one works only for Ghost: Type (in hacking) "Drop
JDZMT10". This will drop a Street-Sweeper-Shotgun and some other nice weapons in
the Persephone's Bedroom section. While the shotgun doesn't work on all of the
other undead exiles you've been facing up till now, it can be used well against
Cain and Abel. When you're lined up with a cell-door, just fire the shotgun to
knock them both back. If you're lucky, one will get caught.

This isn't a real fight, because Cain and Abel are both invincible, but you
still have to deal with them. These two guys will gang up on you and constantly
surround you, so try to get your back up against a wall, so can get them both at
once. Because these guys are indestructible, the goal of the fight is to try and
incapacitate them so you'll have time to escape with Ghost. And lucky for you,
the other prisoners in the jail are pissed off about Cain and Abel imprisoning
them. Try to line it up so that Cain and Abel are in between you and one of the
cells. Give them a tough, focused, kick, and if you were lined up right, the
prisoner inside the cell will grab either Cain or Abel and hold them up against
the bars! Once this happens, move over to another cell and kick the remaining
guy into the door. Once both guys are restrained, pick up Ghost and rush for the
exit. If you took to long to restrain the second guy, they may catch up to you
and force you to repeat the process. Eventually, you and Ghost will escape.

*THROWING STRATEGY* (thanks to Matt Moses)
Matt Moses sent me this great technique which makes beating Cain and Abel much
easier: When you're lined up with them and a cell, instead of kicking, just
focus throw. This is rarely countered, and makes it easier to knock them into
the cell.

================
5.6 S E R A P H
================
Level: Chinatown
Part: Seraph's Tea House
Recommended Weapons: None
Difficulty: 7/10

Oh yeah, like fighting someone will really help to see if they're worthy of
meeting the Oracle. Eh. Well, you have to deal with this guy anyway, whether you
want to or not. Seraph is a real kung-fu master, and he counters and blocks much
better than anyone you've fought so far. Just remember all that you learned
while fighting the Agent, Vlad, and Cujo, and you will win. Also, the arena is
much smaller, so you can't really run away to regain health. As soon as the
battle begins, focus and run over to Seraph. He won't be prepared, so you can
give him one or two good, focused kicks. Make sure that you kick him while he's
down. Now, focusing is very important during this battle, because Seraph will
counter many of your moves. Try to do lots of wall kicks, and always make sure
to follow up each attack with a combo. Punches are a little to slow, so kicks
will be your main attack. And again, if you're having trouble, roll around to
his backside (focus+action), and attack from the flank. Try not to push Seraph
up against a wall, because there he will fall down and be able to get up and
counter strike. You can get longer combos if Seraph is still standing. By the
time Seraph's health gets low, he'll get really angry, so be ready. Eventually
you'll beat him.

*COUNTER-ATTACK STRATEGY* (Big thanks to Olivier Berneche for this)
Here it is: The first Contributor strategy! Want to get your strategy up here?!
Then e-mail it me! Anyway, here's Oliver Berneche's great strategy for putting
the smack down on Seraph:
I've found a new way to beat Seraph quite easily: The fact is that he is just
too good, only some hits in a damn long combo seemed to land, and when he
counter-attacks, you are not ready to block the hit. Here's the trick: just
stand in front of him and just block/use the action button each time he starts
to punch/kick/grab you (even easier if you press randomly the focus button to
slow his moves). This way, the combat ends quickly (counter-attacks just deals
too much damage to him, since he strikes hard; in normal mode, less then 10 will
suffice) and with this technique I have just been hit once. Now you can meet
the Oracle without sweating!

*ENDING NOTES* (Thanks to white_smoke for telling me about the alternate ending)
After submitting the first version of this FAQ I realized that I forgot
something, so here it is: If you lose to Seraph, you DO NOT have to fight him
again. Instead, you will skip both the Vertigo level and the Chinatown level.
Essentially, you skip to the hovercraft stage, totally missing a great part of
the game. Therefore, I encourage you to reset and try Seraph again until you
win. With practice, you can take the tea-house tyrant down and get to play
through two of the game's coolest levels. HOWEVER: if you really want to
experience all that this game has to offer, you should copy your save and
purposely lose to Seraph on one game. This will enable you to see a SLIGHTLY
different ending to the game.

=======================================
6. S T R A T E G Y S U M M A R I E S
=======================================
Here's the newest addition to my FAQ: the Strategy Summaries Section! Here I
will just write short summaries for beating each of the bosses. Basically, you
can just check here if you need a quick tip for beating a boss and don't have
time to read the full strategy. Here they are (in the order they appear in the
normal strategy):

=================================GHOST==============================

1. -------------------------SWAT HELICOPTER-------------------------
*Focus run to the curved wall ahead and constantly use it as a rest area
*Pop out and focus-blast the chopper with the MP5, in 1st person, when it flies
to the right (it will have its chain gun facing the wrong way). Remember to
strafe while firing so that you have a good angle for shooting the chopper
*When it flies out of view, go back to the wall and be ready to throw a stun
grenade out into the open to kill the dropping SWAT team
*Use the 92F Pistols to kill the SWAT team, and repeat this strategy
*ALTERNATIVE: Get up close against the window and when the SWAT Chopper comes
out, just fire, focus, and strafe at the same time. (Thanks to MetroidFanatic)
*ALTERNATIVE: Use the weapon drop. Go to hacking and type "DROP PNSRZ10" to drop
an awesome weapon. See the full strategy for more details (Thanks to I Hate
Robots)

2. ------------------------AGENT HELICOPTER-------------------------
*If you have the SG-552 or the M240 (See weapon drop strategy above), just use
it to blow the Agent away

*When the Agent flies down, lean out the left side of the pillar and shoot with
the MP5 or Entry Shotgun
*When the Agent disappears, run to the column to the right and face the window
to the right
*Repeat the MP5/Entry Shotgun attack when the Agent comes
*Turn around 180 degrees, and run straight to the pillar ahead (you'll be facing
the window to the left of the first attack, and behind the second attack
*Repeat the MP5/Entry Shotgun attack when the Agent comes, and then repeat this
strategy
*When a lone SWAT member comes, shoot him, and then grab the ammo when the Agent
flies out of view

Wesley)
*ALTERNATIVE FOR THE ABOVE ALTERNATIVE: Cartwheel from pillar to pillar while
firing at the Agent

3. ------------------------------CUJO-------------------------------

Robots).

5. -----------------------------TRINITY-----------------------------
*Just do focus moves
*Sweep-kicks are good

7. F I G H T I N G A G E N T S
=================================
I got an e-mail from morisond suggesting that I add a little section about
Agents, so here it is. As this is a new section, and I'm positive that tons of
people have their own strategies for dealing with Agents, I'm begging people to
contribute. Please? Also, note that these tips only apply to grounded Agents
(Not the Agent Chopper). Anyway, here are some tips and info about Agents:

------------------LEVELS AGENTS APEAR IN----------------
-ROOFTOP - Answer the Phone (Thanks to PSZ1211)
-AIRPORT - Agent on Board, and Jackson in Steam 2 (Niobe only)
-POWER PLANT - Core Control (Ghost only)
-POWER PLANT - Agent Escape (Niobe only) {Thanks to cott_matthew}

-------------------FIGHTING WITH AGENTS-----------------
-Try to avoid confrontation by knocking down an Agent (Focus-kick) and then
running like mad
-If you must deal with an Agent, run towards him while firing a gun. The Agent
will dodge the bullets, but will not be able to shoot at you while he dodges.
Once you get close, focus and just attack like mad.
-Try slicing Agents with the sword. It will not kill them, but it will knock
them down so you can make a run for it

--------------------KILLING AGENTS----------------------
-You can defeat the Agent on the Rooftop stage by knocking him off the edge of
the roof
-You can defeat the Agent in the Airport stage, "Agent on Board", by knocking
the Agent off the plane. See the boss strategies for more detailed info
-You can defeat the Agent in the Airport stage, "Jackson in Steam 2" with the
following method: When the stage begins you will be next to a pillar. Focus run
forward while whipping out a gun and then turn and shoot the pillar. The pillar
will explode, hopefully taking the Agent with it. (Big thanks to exarcun634 for
that info)
-You can kill an Agent by hitting them with either a grenade from the 40MM
Grenade Launcher, or a chloro-bomb from the GP-25 Chloro-Bromo
-You can defeat the Agent in the Power plant (Ghost) by knocking him into a
sparking control panel. Check the boss strategies for more detailed info

-------------NIOBE'S POWER PLANT AGENT BATTLES----------
-First off, thanks to cott_matthew for all of these tips
-At the start of the stage "Agent Escape" (Niobe only), and Agent appears and
begins attacking. You can either run for your life, or use grenades/chloro-bombs
to kill him. If you do kill him, you'll gain his very powerful gun
-Later in the stage, you run down a catwalk as bombs explode around you, and 3
Agents attack
-You can either try to use grenades/chloro-bombs to kill one or two, knock them
down and run, or try to throw them into the exploding bombs
-Hurry up when fighting the trio of Agents, as the toxic gas will rapidly
deplete your health
-Don't forget that you have infinite focus, thanks to Sparks (The operator in
the game, not a contributor), so use it well!
-Thanks again to cott_matthew who sent me an e-mail with these detailed tips

---------------------AGENT SMITH------------------------
-Smith appears in the following levels:
SKYSCRAPER - Vertigo
Every CHINATOWN stage except for Seraph's Teahouse
-Don't get near Smith. He has a brutal slamming attack that deals about 15%
damage each hit
-Don't get cornered by Smiths in skinny alleyways, or tight quarters
-If you do get cornered, you have very little chance of surviving. It's too hard
to knock down a Smith, so try to focus run up nearby walls to get past a few
Smiths. Unfortunately, they like to pick you up and pass you back to the corner
-If you want to kill a Smith, hit him with 3 grenades from the Grenade Launcher,
he will die. However, if you hit him dead on with the grenade he will continue
running and gunning. Therefore, try to aim a little to the side so that the
grenade still blows up and Smith is caught in the explosion. This will knock him
down so you can launch again and finish him. (Thanks to exercun634, and
commieboy for backing it up)
-On Vertigo and some of the Chinatown stages, you can knock Smiths off the sides
of buildings, which is kind of fun (Thanks again to exercun634)
**********WHOOPS!!!************
-In the last update, I stated that you could kill a Smith with the sword. That
was a mistake. YOU CANNOT KILL A SMITH WITH THE SWORD! Slicing him will only
make him fall down and sometimes drop his gun. Just slice him and run. (Thanks
again to exercun634, for correcting my misinterpretation of what he told me
before)

Do not use any or all of it without my permission. All of the text is owned and
was written by Daniel Markowitz. You may print it out if you want, but don't
turn it into a strategy guide and sell it, unless you send me the profits! That
would be okay! If you are want to use my FAQ on your website, you must ask my
permission first, and you may not alter or change the text in anyway. All in
all, if you really want to use it for something (litter box for your pets...
whatever.) besides just a personal FAQ, ask me first.
