Single shots do as much damage as breaker if you shoot them as fast as possible and they all connect.

But the breaker can go through his little guards.. the single shot cant. So i can usually only get 1-2 shots off at a time.

Is it possible to start the battle with more life? You can jump into him to get through the shields and autofire the core for 5 damage per jump. Also you might be able to use Overdrive to do some good damage, it goes through the shields and does more damage the longer you can get it to stay over him at a time, and lasts a long time so you don't have to worry about it using up all your magic.

Shouldn't you just use the breaker horizontally, thus damaging all his parts in one shot untill he is dead?

It says on a FAQ to use thunder. but it only kills the main part I am trying overdrive now... not working too well. I will try breaker i guess.. Is it possible to hit all the parts with one shot?

From left to right: 48 HP at address 0583 48 HP at address 0581 96 HP at address 0449 48 HP at address 0582 48 HP at address 0584 Also, there's apparently an extra, hidden part with 48 HP at address 0580. It takes 2 damage from Thunder like everything else does when the screen flashes, but nothing else can hurt it that I can tell. EDIT: heh, looks like you already figured it out, I guess.

I have decided to Improve this run, as I have noticed many improvements that can be made. Something I did not think would happen, if an improvement of the first stage leading up to the boss. But, it seems that I have improved it by 3 frames. http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/3841/Holy%20Diver%20%28J%29.fcm Not sure If I can improve any on the boss fight or not, I will find out though.

Sorry to bump this old thread, but is anyone specifically aware of what causes the softlock on the first form of the final boss? Not sure I have a highlight of it, but it seems like about 10% of the time, after doing the final hit on the boss the game just never loads the next part, and you get stuck in the room. Would be really helpful to know what causes it and maybe that will lead to a way to avoid it.

Try to avoid staying down too long in the midnight sea, know what I mean? ---- If you feel like it, record an fm2 of it happening and maybe somebody will decide to look into it. This game's code is like totally grody though.
