Well, we're near the end, so it's time for a boss rush! Though, again, they only threw a couple of Mavericks at us in the first two Sigma stages....and now the rest of them are just tossed at us, with small rooms in-between that let you get stocked up....if you can navigate them properly!

By and large, most bosses here aren't too much of a problem once you know their weaknesses. Armored Armadillo, as we saw before, becomes FAR less threatening once you shock his armor off, while wind puts out...Flame Mammoth's...flames? But wind just makes flames stronger! That's what Azula says anyway!

Freezing Spark Mandrill makes him nearly harmless...though unfortunately things aren't so easy against Sting Chameleon and Launch Octopus. Seriously, screw those guys! Boomerang Cutter takes out Sting, but it's such a pain to aim with it I tried other options to see if they could get the job done. (Short answer: NO) With Launch, while the Rolling Shield is it's weakness (for some reason) you can ALSO use Boomerang Cutter to cut off most of it's tentacles. This stops it's larger projectiles AND its twister attack...that torpedo spam doesn't improve much though....Glad to be done with these jokers!

And yeah....I somehow manage to die to NORMAL enemies rather than the Mavericks here...so embarrassing...

Time for one last boss to close this stage out....uh....Mouth Bot? (It's name is apparently D-Rex...which barely makes sense) Overall, it's a simple fight and despite being chomped on at first, my rematch goes...mostly well. Just don't get between the two halfs and dodge those giant shots and you'll be fine. Oh yeah, and I didn't know this at the time, but you know what it's weakness is? Boomerang Cutter! :P You can even use that thing to cut off Flame Mammoth's trunk! Why is it so useful?!

The end draws nigh, and because I'm feeling nice, you'll be seeing it later today, hopefully.
