Ideal Speedrun situation
  • During Stage 1 hope you get the minimum total time of 10 or less seconds between each bomb drop (Good Luck! 55% chance.)
  • Kill the 4 drones as fast as possible (easy)
  • Destroy his parts as close as possible to the computer so it takes less time for him to fly back.
  • Destroy all 4 Tendrils at once to get only 1 regen cycle. (very hard)
  • During Stage 2 while the first 2 bombs drop there's a chance to skip the second bomb if the time to spawn the second bomb is less than 0.53. The bomb timer ranges from 0.0 to 4.0 at this point. So get a value less than 0.53 and you'll skip the second bomb. (Good Luck! about 12.5% chance.)
  • During Stage 2 hope the 3 50% bomb drops never happen to go straight to attack mode. (Good Luck! You'll need it! 12.5% chance.)
  • Destroy both claws at once to get only 1 regen cycle. (hard)
  • During Stage 3 hope you get the minimum total time of 6 or less seconds between each bomb drop (Good Luck! 67% chance.) For the second and third bombs if you manage to get the time between the next bomb 0 or less than it will not spawn the next bomb again. Giving you the chance to miss the 2nd and 3rd bombs entirely. The random value is -1.0 to 3.0. So hit a 0 or less to skip the next bomb.(50% chance each bomb)
  • Kill his Head as fast as possible (easy)

Explanation on why the 100% bomb drops don't always spawn:
A bomb is spawned on the 15th frame(0.5 seconds) of the open door animation. When a timer counts down to zero from a random value it will play the open door animation, but only if it is not already playing the open door animation. So if that bomb timer hits zero before the open door animation is done playing it will ignore it and the door will finish opening skipping the next bomb drop.
This can occur in Stage 2 for the second bomb drop and much more likely in Stage 3 for the last 2 bombs of each bombing.
