Easier slashes Charge it up. When you get close to whatever you want to hit, just release it for a hit. This is easier than pressing it at the spur of the moment, because it sometimes misses.
Defeating the final Boss When the battle first starts, notice the VS will fly around, doing various little spinning attacks. Fly towards him. While doing this, do a horizontal slash). This takes a rather sufficient amount of health from the Boss. Upon doing this occasionally you can also score a second hit, but be cautious of the homing missiles. The Boss will dart around shooting little lasers at you. This is easily avoidable; simply follow in his direction to miss the attack totally. Be aware, when the boss reaches around 30% health it will call up two laser weapons. These will do massive damage if they hit you. One is horizontal, and the other is vertical. Notice when he gets ready for this attack that he will throw his arms forward. This is your cue to get as far back as possible. The range on the lasers are fairly weak. When he is done, he will stand still for a brief moment and shoot missiles from his shoulders. Usually this is your cue to go in; the choice is yours to do so. The Boss does not have much of a pattern. About nine well placed slashes are required to defeat the Boss.

Defeating the giant moth First, gather up as much thermal energy as possible. On your way up the mountain make sure to destroy all of the Akrid hives. Get the rocket launcher on the metal slab jutting out of the mountain. You can also grab the large VS laser if you want a back up. Next, climb to the top of the mountain but do not go into the cave. Stand at the top and wait for the moth to fly over you. Aim at the orange weak spots then shoot the tail part with your rocket launcher about two times. After the tail falls off do the same to the wings. A few more weak spots should appear near the top of his head. These are easier to hit with a charged laser shot. When the moth crashes into the side of the mountain the achievement will not appear. However you will bet it after you complete the mission.
Extreme difficulty Successfully complete the game.
Constant VS fire In order to do this trick you must have a VS with two empty arms as well as two Gatlin guns. Attach both guns to each side of the VS and fire only one of the guns a few times. Then, start firing the second gun. If done correctly, one of the guns will reload while the other is firing and repeat, causing the guns to never stop firing until you run out of bullets or manually reload. This works well against any Akrid Boss, especially the one in Mission 05.
VS invincibility If you are taking heavy fire and would like to replenish your health (if you have the thermal energy) hop into the nearest VS. While it is doing the startup animation, you will be invincible for about five seconds.
