annihilator on living crystals

these enemies can be killed with annihilator beam only.

edit: since people seem to be lost on this vid, here's an explanation of what's going on:

the trick for meeting these critters later in the game is to beat the jump guardian by reaching him through the exit. remember the path you take after you defeat the guardian normally to return to the portal? well, if you do a triple bomb jump, you can climb the ledge that is supposedly unreachable in the exit and can access the path coming from the portal for the first time. in the following room, you have to jump on top of those things that give you items when killed and do a perfectly timed jump to reach the ledge. this avoids the regular path completely.
the thing is that the game thinks you're going through that path for the first time if you come back later and go through it and you can then meet the light bringers once you have all the later weapons.

there's lots of incredible things there.

I don't understand why they say in the scan visor that it can be killed with the annihilator beam, when you never see that creature again...

[PiccoloCube]

probably a challenge to sequence breakers to reach them with annihilator.

[thegrayfox26]

what is that orange ball do anyways?

[PiccoloCube]

that's a 100 health energy refill.

[FissionMetroid101]

Don't they disappear after you get the dark beam?

[PiccoloCube]

no, they disappear if you go though that room and then beat the jump guardian.

if you beat the guardian through the back entrance and never visit this room, they'll be there since the game thinks that it's the first time you're going there.

ok cool, just out of interest, if you shoot the Light Beam at the Lightbringer without having used the Dark Beam first, does it still stop moving?

What happens if you scan the Lightbringer in its other states? Do you get a different message?

It's weird how they programmed it to respond to weapons you shouldn't even have...

[axon589]

lol dark nullifies it light upgrades it and annihilator kills it lol

[RoterMeister7589]

[kissapoikanen]

[SuperUnit101]

[MrSpEeDrUn]

you can kill it too with boost ball

[SilverRidley26]

oh my god you killed it!

[Flumechao]

what could've happened if you scanned it?

[ndh564]

Obviously, nintendo knows about the sequence breaking, from something like that, you'd think it would drop something like a lulz energy ball.
