How to beat Omega Red in Wolverine   

The best way to beat Omega Red is to parry his attacks to build up his stagger meter and unleash barrel attacks once staggered until the final phase happens - in this final phase you need to balance attacking and parrying with dodging. This boss fight happens in three phases, and here's how to make it out safely.

Phase One   

This first phase is key to learning how to parry Red's incoming attacks. Red 'power' attacks cannot be parried - if you see him charging a red-coloured attack you need to jump out of the way. However, any attack that's not highlighted red can be parried if you time it right.

Each time you parry an attack, Omega Red's stagger meter will fill (this is the yellow bar underneath his health bar at the top of the screen). Once this has been filled, Red will be briefly staggered, leaving them vulnerable to attack. For this first phase, I recommend only attacking when he's staggered and using special techniques when they're charged.

Here are the first phase attacks you need to watch out for:

• Throwing debris - Red will jump back to distance himself from you and then start to launch objects at you through the air. There's no safe way to parry the incoming debris, so dodge out of the way before they hit you.
• Swing and Hit - Red will extend his coils towards you then smack them down towards the ground then reach out and swing one to the side in an attempt to strike you. He'll do a couple in succession before launching a red power attack. Parry the attacks until the power attack - when you see him surrounded by red, dodge out of the way!

Phase Two   

Of course Omega Red wasn't going down that easy, come on. This second phase amps the battle up a notch and it's here that you'll realise how important parrying is to this boss battle. That being said, you need to dodge as much as you parry, because Red has some new attacks up his metaphorical sleeves that you need to contend with.

Red will use the same attacks from phase one, albeit faster, and there are some new ones to watch out for:

• Extended coils - This attack cannot be parried. He'll briefly flash red before crouching and extending both coils out straight in front of him to try to grab you. These reach quite far so dodge to the side to avoid getting caught.
• Extended coil (just the one) - This attack also cannot be parried. Red will flash red quickly while standing upright before holding one arm out and launching a coil out directly in front of him. Again, this has a long reach, so dodge to the side to avoid being hit.

Phase Three   

This part begins when you wear Omega Red's second health bar down halfway. At this point, he'll gain more ferocious red attacks that you must dodge and fewer attacks that can be parried. This phase also moves much faster than the previous two.

This is when you need to time it right to attack more instead of simply defending against Omega Red and waiting until he's staggered to inflict damage. Use your techniques when they've charged but make sure you're dodging all of the red attacks being thrown at you.

He will use the same attacks from the previous phases but they are much faster and hit a lot harder than before. Plus, now you've suitably annoyed him, there are another few new attacks to watch out for:

• Debris swing - This cannot be parried, dodging is the only way to survive. Red will pick up two large slabs of debris and extend his coils out before swinging them out at you like large, irritating, hammers.
• Debris slam - This always follows up the above attack, Red will lift his coils and slam them into the ground. The slabs extend his reach here. The easiest way to avoid them is to dodge but also keep moving, do not stand still or Red will target you.
• Leap and spear - This also cannot be parried (thanks Red, making life real easy here…) This is a fast attack, the blink and you'll miss it kind. He'll jump in the air, flash red quickly before extending his coils out to try to spear you as he lands. Dodge and keep moving. Never stand still for too long.
