Thank you for the picture it was enlightening if not... entirely... what I... expected? I was thinking more of the pink haired, robotic-esque, *exy devil we all know and love. I do see a resemblance in the hair and face, but are his attacks on the same par? Eh... And when I comes to beating Juno, it must be hard if you haven't master the joystick, especially not being able to use the auto aim, or, that is to say, being able to run and aim at the same time. Otherwise the only thing really necessary is a responsibly upgraded buster, good armor and technique. From what I've heard xellos is alot stronger, but he seems to prefer messing with the main characters and poping-up at random, except at certain parts of the series. Back of topic, I can't win without the shining laser, I've only won once most likely since I have a HORRID short-term memory.

Juno is quite possibly the easiest boss. Ever. I don't see why everyone's stressing this, all it really takes is a Mega Buster with both a strong Attack power, and Rapid power. Once you've those, circle him, and proceed to fire away. Simple. Jump when necessary, reverse direction when essential.

I'm sorry, but it's just a lame thing to say that Juno was the easiest boss. He's easy after a while, or maybe the first time you fight him, but there's no way he's the easiest boss ever. You can use the circle strategy to beat him, sure, but at least he is harder to beat using the circle strategy than some earlier bosses and reaverbots. For instance, you have to either use your jet skates or get an early start running to dodge his lasers, and shockwaves force you to jump. Even if he's easy, he's nowhere near as easy as older ones.

By boss, I meant final boss. I consider the other bosses as merely sub-bosses, of sorts. When it comes to being a final boss, he really is no challenge at all. That's going from the games that I'VE played, and my personal views, and from that I'd say that he is. Ansem's pretty close up there, though.

You've obviously never played Wario World for the Gamecube, Shift. Or WarioLand 4 for the GBA. Or... are all Wario bosses this easy? I'd love to say Juno wasn't an easy boss, but... he was even easy for ME. That's really saying something, I'm a pretty dense gamer.

Hah, nope, never have. But AimMan, don't take it offensively, I mean after all, it could have been a result of my getting experience and being better at the game over time, but he was still INCREDIBLY easy. And as I stated earlier, the easiest final boss that I've ever fought. Please don't try and change my own opinions.
In fact, even the Bonne's Barukon Gelede (or the FrogBot) was, at least, 10 times harder than Juno.

People have trouble with the Frogbot? o.o I mean, I can see him being a problem with the obvious inability to circle and shoot, but... I never considered him hard. The bit beforehand is a tad annoying, but.. hard? Ten times? You're out of your mind. Juno's not that easy. Unless you have major troubles with ol' Froggy. Now, Sera on the other hand... nevermind.

Ten times compared to JUNO, Pitch. Like I said, still my opinion. The bit before the Barukon battle as well as the battle itself was hard COMPARED to Juno's battle. It was still relatively simple, but not as simple as Juno. You guys are nuts if you found Juno difficult And as for Sera, let's not start with that again, Pitch

As for the circle and shoot strategy, for some weird reason, on the copy of the game I have whenever I lock on to an enemy it won't let me move....(but then again I got my copy from a pawn shop so it's possible the last guy to have it went wacky on it with some weird hacking device.) and I could never afford the 3/4 reduction armor or to upgrade the shining laser.

Are you refering to MML1? If so, you CAN'T move when locked on. That's why one of MML2's greatest features was the moveable lock-on. I also love the fact that locking on gives you that little cursor on the enemy. It brings a better feel of an RPG to the game. As well as the new status ailments and different eqipment, like many shoes and armor.

I agree about the comment on MML2, those features where nice.

that was always a problem when I first played MML but now it is easier because you can judge his/her movements.

Once you've those, circle him, and proceed to fire away. Simple. Jump when necessary, reverse direction when essential. exactly. his only real anoyances are in the second form with the colum laser attack. He is an easy boss. who is beat quite simply.

Yes, when you beat the entire game except Juno and never heard of circle strafing......then I figured it out and beat Juno in a matter of 5 mintues........but it took me like 15 tries to I figured out I had to circle him.........
