Venom's Mech is the final boss in Nemesis 2 and Nemesis '90 Kai.

Description[]

The Mech appears to be based off the Doom. The weak spot is the core.

Attack patterns[]

The bullet pattern changes per game.

Nemesis 2/Salamander[]

Venom's primary attack is to fire bullets in your general direction from the guns placed above and below him, when the core is hit, he fires two blasts of lightning from his main cannon. These home in on the player slightly and are very hard to dodge.

Nemesis '90 Kai[]

Venom now fires a almost instantaneous blast of lightning, but it not longer has any homing properties and is fired in your direction in a straight line.

Rather than firing single bullets, Venom now fires a 12-Way spread of them. However, if Venom's core turns red, you made him very angry, causing him to fire many lightning bolts. So you better find a safe spot when that happens.

Strategy[]

There's a safe spot directly below him.
