PrinceWatercress plays Mega Man 4 - Part 8 of 8

...and Dr. Wily goes down for the fourth time!

Dr. Wily 3

The music here is really good. Too bad you don't get to hear it often.

Anyway, the teleporters are (in counter-clockwise order): Drill Man, Bright Man, Skull Man, Dive Man, Toad Man, Dust Man, Ring Man, and Pharaoh Man.

After you beat the Robot Masters a second time, you'll face Dr. Wily again. Just stand right next to the area where Dr. Wily's ship is going to be, and jump and shoot a fully charged Mega Buster shot when it's not spitting out huge purple fireballs.

The second form is difficult as anything. You have to hit the flashing light under Dr. Wily with fully charged Mega Buster shots, and the fireballs that his second form shoots out make this anything but easy. Using energy cans is going to be a big must here. You can also use the Drill Bomb, but just remember that you have to press B again while the Drill Bomb is out to make the explosion hit the weak spot for maximum damage.

Dr. Wily 4

The only way you're going to be able to refill your stuff now is to fight off the worms that come out of the ceiling before the boss door. Just keep walking back and forth after that huge jump down and you should be able to get everything you need - especially for the Pharaoh Shot and the Ring Boomerang. You'll know why in the next paragraph.

When you enter the boss door, the whole room will be dark. There's going to be one attack, and it's a bunch of light-blue fireballs coming together to make one big one...and it homes in directly at you regardless of where you are. When the fireball comes at you, Dr. Wily will show up for a brief instance. There is where the Pharaoh Shot and Ring Boomerang are going to come in. You need to remember where he popped up and shoot the weapon in that direction to hit Dr. Wily. It's easier with Pharaoh Shot, since you can just touch him with the fully charged projectile when necessary so you can damage him without wasting much needed weapon energy for it. If you need to fire it at him, do so. What have you got to lose? If you somehow lose all the energy for that, stick to Ring Boomerang.

When you take down Dr. Wily, you've done it! Enjoy your ending!
