A silly clip showing that it is indeed possible to finish off Corbenik the 2nd in a single Data Drain. The setup is so specific and useless, however, that I thought the standalone clip was enough.

To do this, Corbenik must be Protect Broken during the Celestial Wrath launching cutscene. The only sure way to achieve this, since I don't think shots will work, is to whittle away his health to nothing and then finish him with a chakram during the scene. You can only do this by timing the combo so that the chakram actually starts after the cutscene begins; if it starts beforehand, the game will cancel the action.

Afterward, you have to be just the right distance away so you can make exactly the right movements to get in Corbenik's face and blast him point blank. You can see in this clip how tight the timing is; the fact I pulled it off was probably a fluke, so I took a break from playing with 7-hit combos to upload this immediately.

The only noteworthy oddity this produces, to my knowledge, is the shield appears gigantic in the Data Drain cutscene (it's pretty noticeable at 0:23). I guess that happens because there's no code to correct it, seeing as how Corbenik being Data Drained with the shield up should be impossible.
