Big Core MK II Kai is a boss in Nemesis '90 Kai.

Description[]

This is a bonus boss after the defeat of Abaddon Warship.

This Boss has stolen Gradian Technology under the fleet of Venom's' Aides, taking steps to design an Early Prototype of the Big Core MK II. This machinery is stationed in the Asteroid Belt of the Nemesis Star System.

Data suggests that this Coreship prototype has different modules installed than the original one. It has armaments of Ripple Laser, Missiles, and a Giant Laser installed in the center.

Attack Patterns[]

Big Core MK II Kai is just like Big Core MK II, but instead of shooting lasers, it can shoot ripples, missiles and a big Laser in the center. When you destroy one core, its pincer will be destroyed as well. One must evade the center part as it can fire a Giant Laser in it.
