To his credit... his only misplay was losing LifeAura _immediately_ but that's because I sent the command to start charging a ChargeShot overwriting the default dodging pattern. >_>
I believe the hardest boss title in 4.5 goes to Shadowman actually, since they didn't even program in counterable frames for him!! That's on my to-do list for 4.5 videos.
What the--this isn't Legacy Collection! Rockman EXE 4.5 Real Operation was a sidegame launched between BN4 and BN5 that never localized to the US. Instead of Lan, you play as yourself, and instead of controlling one of the TWENTY ONE(!) playable navis, you instead advise them on which enemy to target and how far away to stand from them _and hope to god they don't do anything stupid while dodging_. Which, hey, they always do! That's why this battle took me 7 hours of attempts (that's *including* speeding up the filler text and animations). ._. ! Next time, when I face Bass XX in 4.5, I'm totally just gonna save state before the fight itself, lol...
lol, it is kinda thematic, isn't it? I used to think frags were rewards for counter hitting in battle like BN3 but I just defeated ShadowmanOmega yesterday (who is legitimately **uncounterable** in 4.5) and still got them so I guess it's just S-Rank bonuses.
I didn't, lol. In 4.5, you just trust your navi to dodge for you. You are unable to control anyone directly in the original (vanilla) gameplay design. (though in my recent Whisky-No-Chips challenge, i did defeat BassXX in BN5 by dodging buster a few times :O )
