Metroid Prime help
 

Anyone know how to beat that stupid plant boss, Flaahgra is its name I think....it kicks my butt everytime I face it.....I am too slow, it's too fast, lol....

anyone have any strategies for killing the darn thing?

shoot him.

wow, and I thought I was supposed to try and hug him.....thanks for the great advice!!!!!!!!!!!

wonderful....I finally beat it, only to fall in some lava in the next area....of course, before I got to save....now I get to do all of it over again....lovely

:lol:

This is the one where you have to hit those solar panels right? That was tough for me too (although not nearly as tough as one of the later bosses).

I think if you attack the plant directly it will be stunned for a little while, that way you can run around and hit the panels until he recovers. It might be quicker to roll to the next target but I can't remember if thats what I did. Since you already did it, it shouldn't be too hard next time :).

Yeah, he became surprisingly easier after fighting him a few more times.....I just stunned him after I hit each solar panel again, that way I'd have more time....I barely survived, lol

Plus on the second time through, I found a save point I missed.

The lock-on dash is your best friend, BTW.. learn it, love it.

I can't seem to get past the really hot room where she dies in a matter of seconds, am I missing a heat suit or something?

:lol:

Yes.. you get it after defeating Flaahgra.

The Varia Suit power-up should be in the same room as the defeated boss. It should be a red "S" logo.

I am loving this game, very very cool. I love a good challenge. Three cheers for Gamecube.

:D

Oh, can I say that I DESPISE the boost ball upgrade? Dang that thing is hard to get the hang of, lol :D

Let's hear back from ya when you get to Ridley. :)
