## Boss Battle

Sniffles rides in a giant drilling machine, which has good armour. He uses the normal sling, and at the start of the battle, he activates a glass dome, and it goes over him. You'll have to destroy it to damage Sniffles. Once you destroy the glass dome, he will activate a laser shooting robot. It will shoot at you every once in a while if you don't destroy it, and it does a large amount of damage. It only takes one hit to destroy it, so do that quickly, then get some shots on him. Once you've depleted his health bar there, he will try to activate a robot, but it accidentally shoots him, and his skin will be completely burned off, then he will fall back, and off his cart.

## Strategies

### Recommended Characters

Giggles is great for this boss battle, just make sure you have health kits to spare. Splendid is another good pick, as he provides +15% health. His ability works a lot like Giggles's, but you don't need health kits.

Since disco bear is practically useless in boss battles, and you wouldn't have unlocked any characters after the Sniffles boss battle, Giggles and Splendid are really your only options. You could use Handy, but Giggles and Splendid work better.

A strategy for the sniffles boss battle, is to get your best slingshot, and Giggles, Splendid, or Handy. Once you've done that, get some lightning ammo, and then start. When on Sniffles first phase, Attack him normally. You can hit anywhere on the glass dome, since there are no eye-shots and such, just make sure you pull until the reticle flashes, then let go. When you're on his second phase, he'll call out laser shooting robots. When ever he gets prepped to get out a robot, use lightning ammo. This cancels the action of him summoning a robot, and gives you time to hit him. Keep doing that, and Sniffles should be relatively easy to beat. This strategy is a bit expensive to use, but it guarantees a win.
