Please don't get hit by this, as it's telegraphed by 5 whole seconds. His other attack is to power up and charge at the bottom of the screen. If you have nowhere to evade it's an option. Be careful, and note that popping off a bomb will cause them all to retract. His tentacles have larger collision than they appear to, and target unpredictably. The Leviathan is very easy, just keep an eye on him when he's about to use his quad tentacle attack. Keep your eyes on your ship, the interceptors will be firing at you as well, and they can be tricky. Don't get greedy, if you stay close to the Carrier, you'll get killed by interceptors when he launches them.
Move very slowly when evading the attack, only far enough to avoid getting hit. Move to the side of the screen whenever the Carrier charges up to fire the repeating cannon at you. These are very easy to avoid and mainly only hurt you if you are doing a poor job cleaning up smaller enemies, due to using the Plasma Missile or losing your Drones. The exception is that on higher difficulties, there are laser obstacles on the Terratron level. The patterns of all attacks are the same on every difficulty level and only the HP of enemies is upgraded. Drones have their own separate collision and will die if hit by a ship or a bullet. The key to winning is to never die, and to keep your Drones from dying when you can. The overall damage per minute you'll do to the bosses with Side Missiles is thus very similar, and Side Missiles allow you to play much safer overall.īombs destroy all mobs and projectiles on screen. Furthermore, Side Missiles allow you to DPS the bosses regardless of where you are on the screen, as you'll need to dodge attacks, not just fire at the boss nonstop. They will cover the edges of the screen and make most of the non-boss portions of the levels very easy, so you can rest a bit and easily collect bombs and replace destroyed drones. They do much greater DPS than Side Missiles, but only directly in front of your ship. Many people suggest using Plasma Missiles. Once you have your chosen weapon at level 2 and 2 drones, farm as many bombs as you can.
#THE LOST VIKINGS HOTS UPGRADE#
The max upgrade level for each of the weapons and the drone is 2, but you can carry a lot of bombs.
Learn to recognize the Side Missiles (3 red missiles), Drone (Point Defense Drone), Plasma Missile (Purple launcher object), and Bomb (Blue launcher object). Note that holding down space bar fires about 1\3 as many shots as rapidly mashing it, and that holding it down will not cause Drones to fire their homing missiles, which are absolutely pivotal to winning this.Īll power-ups gradually cycle between the 4 available ones if left alone. I for one have a G-15 keyboard which has a fairly heavy space bar, my hands were screaming by the time I earned Gold. Breathe deeply and regularly, it's a lot more taxing on your muscles than you might think. The mashing required to beat this can be brutal. Alternate between using the left hand on WASD and right hand on Spacebar, and right hand on arrow keys and left hand hitting Spacebar, to avoid fatigue.
