Individual Mission Strats and Boss Strats
Mission 1: Take Out Oikonny
Stage Type: Auto-Scroller
Bombs Needed: 5
IMPORTANT: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SAVE SLIPPY OR FALCO. By having them taken out you skip 2 dialogues during Oikonny fight that saves approximately 5 seconds.
This is a very straight-forward mission. Prior to Oikonny dialogue make sure you get the laser upgrade and 2 bombs. At beginning of mission try to kill a few enemies before the first silver ring to avoid lag (too many enemies will be present at once). Avoid destroying them too fast as the explosions will also lag.
After the Fortuna entry cutscene you need to collect 3 bombs and another laser upgrade. That should have you at 5 bombs and double blue laser upgrade for Oikonny and Moth
Boss: Oikonny Andross
Bombs Used: 3
Oikonny's AI will always make him use his left hand first. Take it out using 1 bomb and some laser mashing. Next, target his right hand but make sure you dodge his attack or he'll do a taunting animation which will cost a few seconds. Use 2 bombs and laser mashing combo and he'll be done.
Boss: Aparoid Moth
Bombs Used: 2
Immediately after cutscene from Oikonny shoot 2 bombs HOWEVER you can't shoot the 2nd bomb as fast as possible...you must delay it a tad bit. After that it goes to its flaming rock shooting animation. You cannot kill it till after this phase so shoot till it blocks all your shots. After this phase you need to hit him with a charge shot each time his weakpoint opens. If done right it should be defeated at the start of it's fire wave shooting phase
Mission 2: Investigate Base on Katina
Stage Type: Ground Assault
Objective 1: Take out 2 heavy aparoids
The 2 heavy aparoids spawn after 25 seconds. During this time destroy the large door (helpful for objective 3). Both heavy aparoids will require a fully charged blaster shot to be destroyed.
Objective 2: Take out 8 heavy aparoids
There will be 2 more aparoids here than what was present in bronze. Fortunately both are in same general area and a minor detour is needed to take them out.
Objective 3: Take out x hatchers
Boss: Aparoid Walker
Mission 3: Take Control of the Hideout
Stage Type: Ground Assault followed by Arwing dog fight
Objective 1: Take out the x transfer devices
Objective 2: Take out Wolf, Leon, and Panther
Mission 4: Recapture the Climate Control Center
Stage Type: Ground Assault
Objective 1: Take out the 3 shield generators
Enter the Landmaster as soon as possible. Then take out the 3 shield generators. Each will require x shots from Landmaster. After 3rd is taken down enter the climate control center.
Ojective 2: Take out x sentries
Aparoid Generator
Mission 5: Hunt Down Pigma
Stage Type: Auto-scroller
Bombs Needed: 0
Very simpe stage again. Collect both laser upgrades (one at beginning and one before giant aparoid prototype).
Boss: Pigma
Mission 6: Liberate Sauria
Stage Type: Ground Assault
Mission 7: Recapture the Cornerian Capital
Stage Type: Ground Assault
Boss: General Pepper
Aiming is the key to this fight. If your health is high enough you don't have to try to take out his missiles or lasers. Just try to get damage on him as often as possible and he'll go down quick. Note that this fight is considerable longer than bronze.
Mission 8: Protect the Gate
Stage Type: Free-roaming space assault
Bombs Needed: ?
This mission won't give any objective till after 2 minutes go by. During this time collect 2 laser upgrades and at least x bombs.
Objective 1: Destroy the x inbound missiles
Keep health high and destroy the missiles. It's best done by waiting just near their spawn points.
Objective 2: Destroy multi-part missile
Mission 9: Storm the Aparoid Homeworld
Stage Type: Ground Assault
Objective 1: Destroy the x hatchers
Objective 2: Destroy the 6 hatchers
Mission 10: Defeat the Aparoid Queen
Stage Type: Auto-Scroller
Bombs Needed: 3
Very straightforward mission. Throughout the mission you need to collect 2 laser upgrades and 3 bombs. 2 of the bombs will be out in the open and another will be collected after saving Falco. It's recommended you save anyone that's in trouble as they give out silver rings (and Falco gives bomb) which will increase your chances of living.
