3. Boss Faq



>>>>>Area 1 Boss<<<<<

*********************



Channcey "The Baby"



Difficulty- 1 out of 5



Strategies-



This boss has three attacks.  The first one he uses is the attack where giant 

horse chair things come firing at you.  Just run around sideways to dodge 

these.  The second one he uses is the attack where he throws balls at you that 

bounce off of the cradle's sides. When one of these balls stops this is your 

chance to hit Channcey and take away some life percentage. Go up to the ball,

suck it up with your vacuum cleaner. Point it at Channcey and let go of the R

button. Start sucking him up!  If you do not get him on your first try then

his third attack is where he bounces around on the cradle's base and tries to

hit you.  Just run away from him and he will eventually go back to the first

attack and repeat them in order.  Keep hitting him with the balls and sucking

him up afterwards and you should be fine.  After he is beat you will be

warped back to Channcey's room and a big chest will be there to greet you.





>>>>>Area 2 Boss<<<<<

*********************



Bogmire "The Shadow"



Difficulty- 2 out of 5



Strategies-



This boss has no real attacks.  His little minions do all the dirty work.  You 

just need to dodge them and when they are near you suck them up into a ball and

shoot the ball at Bogmire to be able to suck him up.  Lather. Rinse. Repeat.





>>>>>Area 3 Boss<<<<<

*********************



Boolossus "The Gathering of Boos"



Difficulty- 3 1/2 of 5



Strategies-



It is not that this boss is harder than the previous one but this boss just 

takes longer to beat.  First thing you need to do is grab the big boo by its 

backside and drag it to one of the ice statues.  Then when it breaks into tiny 

boos you need to hit them with ice and freeze them ( you can get ice ghosts 

form the ice statures at each side of the arena).  When one is frozen suck it 

up into your vacuum and that is one less boo you have to deal with.  Lather. 

Rinse. Repeat.





>>>>>Area 4 Boss<<<<<

*********************



King Boo/Bowser "Last Boss"



Difficulty- 5 out of 5



Strategies-



This boss is not the hardest boss of all time (by far) but it is (IMO) the 

hardest boss in this game.  First off Bowser's attacks are the Fire Breath, 

the one where he throws spiked balls at you, then one where he sucks in his 

breath, then one where he charges at you, and then one where he runs around 

like a chicken with its head on backwards.  Fire Breath is easy to dodge just 

stay out of its range.  The one where he sucks in his breath is easy too, just

stay out of range.  When he charges at you, you need to move out of his way

fast.  And when we runs around crazy-like just stay away from him.  When he

throws spiked balls at you, you need to wait until one stops and then suck it

up to your vacuum (you must hold the R button and WALK INTO the spiked ball

to pick it up).  When Bowser runs towards you, you need to back off and shoot

the ball at his head when he bends over.  Don't be late on this or you will

get a fire breath or might get sucked into his mouth.  After that, his head

will come off and King Boo will come out.  Suck him in while you run from

Bowser's ice attacks.  Lather. Rinse. Repeat.



Congratulations!! You have just beat Luigi's Mansion.  Now if you haven't 

already, you should beat it and get A Rank.
