As before she is most vulnerable to the Dark Beam and Super Missiles however, her exposure to Phazon now renders her invisible to the Dark Visor, requiring use of the Echo Visor.Īfter sustaining enough damage, Dark Samus surrounds herself in a large shield of Phazon, transforming into a being of pure Phazon. Dark Samus attacks by firing a large beam of Phazon energy. She is invulnerable while firing her Phazon laser, but can be damaged once she drops to the ground. Samus must defeat her dark counterpart in under eight minutes or Dark Aether will destabilize with her in it, resulting in a Game Over.
Compounding the difficulty is the countdown timer. Much like the fight with the Emperor Ing, Phazon ore lines the walls of the arena, damaging Samus on contact. This battle takes place in the Sky Temple Gateway on Dark Aether. Once her health has been depleted, Samus will claim victory yet again, as Dark Samus goes to the elevator wall, destroys it, and falls through the chasm.ĭark Samus serves as the final boss of the game, now supercharged with Phazon energy to the point where she is transparent.
She will also use her dive bomb and boost attack. Once she stops, she is vulnerable to attack. Dark Samus will fire Missiles while cloaked and airborne. After dealing enough damage, the boss switches strategy.ĭark Samus now utilizes her stealth field generator, rendering herself invisible to the Combat Visor, Samus must then switch to the Dark Visor to track her opponent. Super Missiles and the Darkburst can deal heavy damage to Dark Samus, though the former is preferred as the Darkburst is less effective against the speedy target. Dark Samus is highly vulnerable to the Dark Beam because she is a being of the light world (and not a Darkling Samus). She also utilizes a faster version of the Boost Ball, charging around the arena at blinding speeds (using a charged Light Beam on her will instantly stop her attack). Dark Samus uses two variations of the Charge Beam: either as a thin, blue beam that she sweeps across, or an energy blast that will encase Samus in Phazon. Dark Samus retains most of her attacks from before, along with three new attacks. Unlike the last fight, there is more room to move around, and hitting Dark Samus is somewhat easier. Samus battles Dark Samus again on the Aerie (and in its access) at the Sanctuary Fortress. After dealing enough damage to Dark Samus, she will be defeated, collapsing to her knees and then violently exploding, leaving nothing behind but Phazon particles which float in the air for some time before eventually dissipating. Dark Samus is also immune to all attacks while airborne, and can only be damaged again once she has returned to the ground. While in this state, she will often rise high into the air to fire Super Missiles or dive at Samus while encased in a ball of energy, both of which have the capacity to reduce the pillars in the room to flaming wreckage. Once half of Dark Samus' health has been depleted, she will begin to glow with Phazon energy. Dark Samus can be very difficult to hit, as she possesses greater speed than Samus, and the pillars around the room make aiming and moving somewhat difficult. She may also raise a Phazon energy shield to deflect attacks and damage Samus if she is too close.
For most of the fight, Dark Samus glides around the room, firing her " Shrapnel Beam" and firing missiles. Samus first battles her doppelgänger in the Main Reactor of the Space Pirate mining facility, after the latter absorbed some Phazon.
