Wiggler is the boss of Mission Mode Level 6. You'll face a giant Wiggler on a winding, grassy track. Your objective is to hit its head with Red Shells.
Phases & Strategy:
- Phase 1 (Chasing): Wiggler will chase you around the track, trying to ram you. It will also occasionally stomp, causing shockwaves.
- Collecting Red Shells: Item boxes around the track will provide Red Shells.
- Attacking Wiggler: When you have a Red Shell, fire it at Wiggler's head. The Red Shell will home in, but Wiggler can sometimes dodge it if you're too far away or if it's turning sharply.
- Repeat: Continue hitting Wiggler's head with Red Shells. As it takes damage, it will become faster and more aggressive.
- Avoid Being Rammed: Stay ahead of Wiggler or dodge its charges.
- Avoid Shockwaves: Jump over the shockwaves it creates when stomping.
Weakness:
- Red Shells: Only Red Shells can damage Wiggler.
Tips:
- Stay Ahead: Try to maintain a lead on Wiggler to get clear shots with Red Shells.
- Aim Carefully: Even though Red Shells home, a well-aimed shot when Wiggler is relatively straight will ensure a hit.
- Drift for Speed: Use mini-turbos on the winding track to maintain your speed and stay ahead.
Wiggler is a fast-paced boss that tests your driving and aiming skills. Keep moving, and don't let it catch up to you.
