I haven't played this game in months due to the frustration I feel while playing it. I've gotten near the end of the game, where you meet Bowletta (or whatever her name is). You fight her (overall easy), and then she sucks Mario and Luigi into her mouth. There's this battle with some sort of dinosaur skeleton looking thing, and you have absolutely terrible health (like 1 or something), and he attacks first, almost always killing me instantly. Is there any way around this? I suck at timing the jumps and stuff trying to get over his swinging arm. I've say I've beaten Bowletta probably like 10 times, only to die at this part each and every time. Any suggestions or help?

(Suggestion != You suck)

Sounds like you didn't build up enough the stat that determines how quickly you go. IIRC, I always had a chance to use one of my super-healing items before being attacked. I think your only chance is to dodge the attack.

I had the same problem for a couple months. Kept getting killed right away. I picked it up recently to give it a go and beat it on the first try. Just have to get the timing down.

You can also get a badge somewhere that lets you attack first.

Learn to dodge the twin beam thing, that is what always killed me.

It's been a while since I beat this (back when it came out), so I don't remember clearly. But can't Luigi get a pair of overalls or something near the end of the game that guarantees he gets the initiative? His first move should be to use one of those ultra-super-mushrooms to restore both M & L's stats.

Yeah I've been stuck on that same section for a couple months now. Probably should get back to playing, one can only imagine how awesome it'll look on DS.

 

[epmode]

you have to dodge the first attack. it's a bit easier after that, but not by much. took me quite a few tries to kill him. surprisingly tough boss, especially for a nintendo game.

WTf, the second form just 0wned me twice.

I keep attacking and attacking and it never dies.

Spoiler

I'm meant to be targetting the heart as much as possible when I get the chance right?

Yup, you've got the right idea... if I remember correctly, you have to

Destroy the arms, then the heart pops out a bit, then you just wail on that

. What level are you at, anyway?

 

[Great King Bowser]

Lvl 37.

Is there any way for me to go and try and level up?

I haven't played the game for months so I can't even remember how the game is structured. :lol

Just go back through some enemy infested areas and gain some experience.

 

[Dave Long]

Yeah, you can go back out of there as much as you want IIRC. Go back and fight stuff to level up if you feel you're too low in level. I think the FAQ I read suggested like Lv.42 for that fight. I'm pretty sure I did it around 38 or so though. Dodging really is the key as it is in most of the fights.

I swear enemies aren't respawning.

Well thanks for the suggestions guys and gals. I shall look for that badge. I hope I have it.
