Decided to go through the demo again in my new laptop. My main goal was to at least go for no damage as a minimum. I did use FastBarrier (name could be wrong) to at least give me a bit of breathing room. Rank S is nice, but I rather not push my luck too much trying to go for it. Just wanted to make sure I'm not standing around waiting for the right chips to show up (I keep at least one PA in my folder available, but I don't try to go for it). I've already done an S rank battle against Riffman Ex so I just settled with the best I can manage here (granted that video I used the Quick memento). Main difference was that I was in normal form since I didn't unlock quick memento yet. Then again, I feel I was really pushing my luck back when I fought him with quick. Worth mentioning that a good majority of the fights here I was going in with full synchro. I'm kind of bad at countering attacks.
Gutsman isn't exactly worth talking about. He kind of suffers a bit from being the first boss.
Going to speak about both Raven fights here. I got pretty lucky in the first fight since a lot of my attempts get ruined if he keeps vanishing from the battle field. Have mixed feelings about his ex form. I did skip on going for S rank here. That fight did made me figure out how to get some use out of the TopSpin chips. I wasn't too sure if I could use another TopSpin if I already had one active. Don't really have any quick ways to take him out.
Just talking about the first Riffman fight here. Think I got pretty lucky with some of my chip drops at that point. Was running a combination of R and J coded chips. ReaperBolts and BackSticks had both those codes available (hopefully I got the chip names right). Just had to be mindful about that slow moving electricity attack.
I did Cactusman already, but decided to see what I can do against him in normal form. Did this after the Riffman battle. Used similar coded chips to Riffman's fight. Added MagBombs since the Megabuster can't go through his cacti. Generally don't like chips that involve throwing something, but this fight made me experiment with them. Was also using MchnSwrd to help out with damage.
Set up an S and L coded folder for Ghostman. Didn't really give him a chance to show it, but his attacks reference Quickman. The main thing I wasted here was that ElecSwrd. If my shmup runs are any indication, my reflexes aren't really that great when I attempted to hit him with that.
Didn't really give Pirateman much of a chance. Just zapped him with electricity. FastBarrier helped out with his shark attack. Kind of the main mistake I could afford here.
