Helios

Helios is the guardian of Elysia's Leviathan. This mechanoid looks like a small round sphere with four tentacle-arm like appendages. Helios has six forms. You cannot hurt him in any of these forms except for the last one. To get him to turn into the last form, you must repeatedly shoot him during these forms to aggravate him.

The first form he appears in is his neutral form. He has a large sphere of Swarmbots surrounding him that act as a shield. He will just float in the middle of the arena. During this phase you should shoot him as much as possible to stun him. He may change into any of these:


 * Bowling Ball: He will fall to the ground and try to roll at you. Simply strafe to the side to avoid.
 * Beam Array: He will arrange the Swarmbots into approx 15(?) small groups that will in turn charge up and fire at you. You must shoot the group that starts turning blue to destroy it. During this time, Helios will be floating off to the side.
 * Tornado: He will arrange the Swarmbots into a large tornado with him at the base and start spinning toward you. He will be weak to Morph Ball Bombs at this time.
 * Humanoid: Helios will split the Swarmbots into 4 groups which will become "arms" and "legs". These will sometimes hurl giant orbs at you, but can be easily dodged. You must shoot the joints where the "arms" and "legs" attach to Helios.

His aggravated form will happen when you stun him a certain amount. Now he will ditch his Swarmbots and come attack you on his own. As soon as you see him leave his Swarmbots, you should change to Hyper Mode. He will expose his core during this time, and you should try to shoot it as much as possible. You might be able to inflict about a third of his health to him before he changed back into neutral form.

After you beat him, you will get the Hyper Missiles.
