Yeah, I'm stuck already and I seriously need help.
I've got the light and dark beam, space jump boots or whatever they are called, the dark suit/armor, morph ball bombs but I can't seem to find what's next. The guardian told me to go to Torvus but I can't because apparently I need some other type of beam other than what I've got in order to open the passage. I think I need to get now the Super-Missile but I can't seem to find it.

The door to Torvus was opposite of the door from which you came in (via elevator). For a moment, it was blocked by a "mental" shield that U-mos setup, and cannot be opened by a weapon. See U-mos upstairs once more (i don't know if he'll talk again), then return to the blocked door. It really shouldn't be blocked after visiting U-mos.

Edit: Nevermind, I got through it now. Afterall I just had to do how I was thinking it might be which was with the light beam. Btw, I've got the Super-Missle now.

How the hell you beat the Boost Guardian? I blast a good chunk with Super Missles, but after that, it goes in morph ball and becomes a living Pinball! It seems that my weapons have no effect, and all I can do is try to dodge. Don't get close when it becomes red fudge either, it'll hurt! Any tips?

That second big boss though... wow
.For the boost ball guardian, hit it with everything you've got when it's in solid form (super missiles are good), dodge it when it's a pinball (jumping around seems to be the best way... also try to get it to hit the pillars if you need health) and when it turns into the reddish sludge thing, morphball and put bombs in its path. Wash, rinse, repeat.

I can beat the swimming larva easily, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to hurt the adult flying version. Any help?
Post by: PaLaDiN on November 21, 2004, 09:30:45 PM
Grapple behind it quickly while it's stunned and seeker missile its 4 wings simultaneously. You've probably figured out how to stun it already.

The Grapple Guardian is my fav miniboss so far; he's pretty TERRIFYING when he rushes you to "kiss the tv screen," especially on a suitable surround sound system.
And yeah, Chykka, WOW. This game's been action-adventure heaven on a higher strata (standing on the shoulders of other previous Nintendo giants) for me.

SPOILER ALERT!!! DON'T READ WHAT'S BELOW UNLESS YOU'RE AT THE END OF THE GAME!!!
I'm at what I think is the last big boss (Ing Emperor) in the game... God that thing is HARD. So bloody hard, it's killed me three times already. And I wouldn't have it any other way. Anybody else almost wet their pants when they saw its third stage?
Heh, a spoiler within a spoiler. Never thought I'd see the day.
Post by: Eminem on November 28, 2004, 08:25:40 PM
Emperor Ing isn't really that hard. Just use the Sonic Boom on him. It works great on him.

I'm having a ton of trouble with on of the keys in Torvus. I've gone all around, backtracking and everything (collected a ton of missile and energy power-ups), but I can't find it. Well, that's a lie. I know where it is. I think it's the second key I'm looking for. It's in the lower level of Torvus, the place where you fight the Alpha Bogg. Anyway, there's a power bomb door, but I don't have the power bomb, and I've got no idea where to get it. So could tell me either where the power bomb is or how I should get this key?
I'll feel really dumb if there's just a morph ball hole there or something.

But, I have some trouble with the Spider Guardian. The first screen is simple, second one is tricky, 3rd one is easy, the fourth screen is WTF? Any tips

I'm on the second stage of the bug, Chakraa or something. I shoot him, stun him, but I can't hit those damn vital points for nothin'. I've tried beams, missiles, seeker missile, all of that while on the grappling hook, everything. This is ridiculous.
Post by: PaLaDiN on November 29, 2004, 04:44:50 PM
DJ, is that the part with three morphball slots? You have to hit him till he's green then hit the bottom one...
After that hit him till he's green, then hit the bottom one and the second one as quickly as you can.
After that hit him till he's green and hit all three slots.
Post by: Hostile Creation on November 29, 2004, 04:48:11 PM
I tried seeker missiles, I tried going behind it, but I hadn't gotten around to combining them. Thanks, and it's nice to know I would've figured it out, too

My problem now is that I'm missing 3 missile expansions as well as 1 power bomb expansion. The list of missile expansions that I've found is too long to list, so I'll just list the power bombs and where I found them. If anyone know where that last one is, please help. The ones that I have found are:
--Power Bomb (Undertemple - Dark Torvus Bog - Defeat Power Bomb Guardian)
--Power Bomb Expansion - (Great Bridge - Torvus Bog)
--Power Bomb Expansion - (Putrid Alcove - Dark Torvus Bog)
--Power Bomb Expansion - (Dynamo Chamber - Temple Grounds)
--Power Bomb Expansion - (Transit Station - Sanctuary Fortress)
--Power Bomb Expansion - (Main Gyro Chamber - Santuary Fortress)
--Power Bomb Expansion - (Sandcanyon - Agon Wastes)
--Power Bomb Expansion - (Sanctuary Entrance - Sanctuary Fortress)
Thanks in advance!

You'll find your prize in Dark Agon Wastes: Feeding Pit...This was a pain since it's not intuitive to jump in the water and search for the item...

Head down the path that leads to the Galaxy Federation Trooper Ship. You'll stop at a metal door with a small pit underneath. Stay out of the pit, and stand across from the door. Turn on your Dark Visor, and search for the 5 spots you can fire your Seeker Missles at. This should unlock the way.
The big metal door near the GF Trooper Ship is the way to Sanctuary Fortress. Scan the Luminoth Lore and continue your quest.

I have tried five! times, and I can´t beat it, as it always manages to ram me when I try to get out of the way following the head-on hits with beams or missiles? At one point I had it´s energy meter nearly totally depleted, but it got to me anyway! Why can´t I get out of the way quick enough?
I wish IGN had a video guide, SHOWING how each boss is killed! They have only some of the encounters on demo under their "review" section for GameCube games. That helped me to understand how to kill Amorbis!
Just a shame that I cannot go further.
Roll into the Morph ball after hitting him? Would that be low enough to avoid it´s belly, and roll out of the unscathed, when it counter attacks?
Hope somebody knows a smart, fast way to kill him!
Just too much of a hazzle to go back, only to get knocked down again!
Post by: NinGurl69 *huggles on February 16, 2006, 09:25:07 PM
Did you NOT read the logbook notes Alpha Blogg as well as the regular blogs?
Usually I just let him hit me anyway, as long as my Super Missle makes contact with his OPEN DUR mouth. I'll hurt him way more than he hurts me.
Post by: Gamebasher on February 17, 2006, 03:49:44 AM
I will try what you suggest! I do recall that I had the SAME problem with Flaagra in the Metroid game, where only an alert Forum member made me aware WHY I couldn´t get away from the damn plant boss, after delivering a barrage of missiles or charged shots. But after learning that, not that it wasn´t in the instruction booklet (I was so busy just getting to p-l-a-y that awesome game, that I completely avoided it, assuming I could do it all by direct on-screen learning, as I went along in the game. But then again - I was to become a lot wiser!)
Thing is that I really think I also did press the b button several times to get out of the way of this boss, but still got only a kind of floaty jumping which was too slow to escape the lightningly fast fish! But like you said, there is ways to let him take far more damage than oneself, even though he hits you!
What I experience is this: I shoot him with the light beam, and do damage. HERE it is MUCH easier to get OUT of the way in time! BUT when I get to having only super missiles left, boy, it is much more difficult to get away! Did you experience any of that? Is there a slower reaction time with Samus, when delivering Super missiles?
Another thing is that on several occasions my super missiles did NO damage whatsoever, but the fish hit me! Exactly WHEN do you hit it? Do you do counts after the fish begins to move from it´s corner, and to the point where it is easiest to hit it? I know the mouth has to be completely open before any shot, but then why does my shots not damage it? Counting helps the timing to be the same every time, if such is possible! Do you actually do that, to make sure you hit it precisely when it is going to "go in" every time?
If I can´t get this issue straightened out, I will get a lot more trouble when I encounter the other bosses, like, say, Chykka (shivers!)!!! So, here´s hoping you help me out on the Alpha Blogg one last time!
Post by: NinGurl69 *huggles on February 17, 2006, 09:25:27 AM
He's easiest to hit when he's about to hit you. I'm always on the opposite side of the water tank from him to maximize his travel distance (time). I trigger the Super Missle before as he's halfway through his dash. It is possible to jump out of the way and score a hit, it's just harder. I believe charged Dark Beam shots are stronger than the Light Beam, since Alpha Blogg is from the Light World.
Post by: Gamebasher on February 21, 2006, 08:41:37 AM
I only used the Light beams on him, and then switched to using the super missiles. But now I can use both the Dark Beam and the Light Beam. Oh thank Heaven, for Seven...erh...PGC Gameplay Strategy...and responsive PGC Forum Members!!! Damn great website.
