Master the Part 15 walkthrough for Samson, focusing on the challenging Gold Warrior boss fight. Learn strategies and tips to overcome this difficult encounter.
Walkthrough
- 1Castle Start: Switch to Golem. Jump right to a ledge, then to skeleton blocks. Kill the swooping green flying monkey. Walk across, kill a skull when it flies, then drop right, killing any remaining flying monkeys. Drop onto spikes and walk right, punching occasional flying monkeys until you reach the right ledge. (Note: On Normal, platforms have skulls to kill between jumps.) Jump up and kill a skull, then head to the top of the ledges.
- 2Lower Ledges: Jump down the hole on the right, falling onto a stairway of ledges. Head left down the ledges until you see a skull. Drop to the next platform, then kill a skull on the right. Jump to the platform the second skull was on, walk onto the spikes on the right for an extra life, then go back left and drop further right, killing another skull to your left. Grab the health increase in the air to your left by jumping. Drop to the floor on the left and head right to the large open hallway.
- 3Open Hallway: Immediately, a stone block to your right will jump at you. Use Golem to punch it before it hits you. Jump to the next platform and kill another block. Move right to avoid a falling ceiling spike. Jump over the next pile of stones, kill another block, and avoid another falling spike. Kill one more block, then jump to the top of the next platform and pick up the large heart. Kill the green bird here.
- 4More Platforms and Birds: Jump over another platform and kill two boxes on the other side. Move aside to avoid a falling spike. Jump to the top of the next pile of blocks and pick up the health increase. Kill the green bird here. Jump into the air and kill a second bird. Kill one more box and walk forward. Kill the three birds flying up and down. Switch to Golem and walk across the spikes, killing green birds. (Note: On Normal without Golem, use platforms.)
- 5Wall Climb and Descent: Reach the right-hand side of the spikes, walk to the wall, and change to Mouse. Run up the wall in the narrow passage to get a health increase. Continue up, dropping bombs rapidly as skulls and ghosts fly at you. Grab the large heart higher up. Keep going until you reach the top. Jump left to a platform, then up to the platform above. Change to Dragon.
- 6Aerial Hazards: Walk to the edge and hover over a rotating skull platform to the next solid platform. A large red skull will emerge from the pit behind you; avoid it. Hover over two more platforms and land on the third. Hover over two more rotating platforms to a solid one. Another large skull will rise; avoid it. Hover to the next platform, then onto the main platform. Walk across, killing blobs falling from the ceiling, and exit screen right.
- 7Boss: Gold Warrior: The boss hovers up and down. On the ground, he sends bouncing energy balls. In the air, he sends curved energy balls.
Strategy:
- Do not touch the Gold Warrior; he can defeat Samson with maxxed HP in two hits.
- He floats in a circle and sends ghosts in pairs. Attack him with Golem or fly as Dragon and attack. Prioritize taking out the ghosts first.
- He will disappear and reappear randomly, which is the most dangerous part. Keep moving to quickly evade him when he reappears.
- Take him down over a few rounds of this pattern.
- When he's on the ground, he sends volleys of bouncing energy balls.
- When he's in the air, he sends volleys of curved energy balls.
- You can get up close with Golem and punch him while he's in the air or on the ground.
