Diversity Basic Information

Diversity
Description
These guys love invading planets. Their instinctual need to destroy obstacles effectively while moving led to their bodies evolving without legs!
Jeane's Tip
"When his shields are up, your Beam Katana will be deflected! Aim for the dark fog when attacking!"

How to Beat Diversity

Dodge Behind It

When attacking Diveristy up-close, it will deploy a shield in front of it. The shield deals damage if it comes into contact with you. Dodge to get behind it then start attacking or use Death Force to fling it backward.

Group Them Together

It's not recommended to fight multiple Diversities out in the open, as then you'll be having to fend off their bomb and tackle attacks from multiple directions. Group them together in a corner of the stage using Death Force. You can then use Death Rain, which is effective due to their limited mobility.

Use Death Kick to Negate Bomb

Diversity shoots bombs that stick onto surfaces until they explode a few seconds later. If one of these bombs stick to you, wait until it starts beeping rapidly—to signal it's about to explode—then use the Death Kick, so it explodes during your special, negating the bomb's damage.
