Isnt there some counter you can do with echidna? when she is flying at you? I always end up trying it and bustering nothing.

I've never tried it, but the times that I've heard you can Buster her, it is only when she is in her golden state that she gets into when she is at low health when she is flying towards you.
 
I've tried it.... its very hard... at the beginning... when she is Golden and Flying around with her head towards you... try to buster in the right time.... Exactly like you can take Angelo Credos Spear he is throwing and throw it back to him... :)

True. your time must be perfect
 
It works. Do it a second after you realize she stopped going in circles and finally starts going towards your position. It never fails for me. The bad thing is that it's one of the weakest DB moves you can do in bosses <_<

It is a shame it is the weakest DB attack (in comparison to the more potent ones such as against Credo or Agnus). But alike the final Saviour Battle with 'His Holiness' its more useful to counter the attack (like the mega uber sparda slash attack >.<), although with Echidna you can roll :D

But its all down to timing >.< (still can't catch Agnus' spinny water-land-fish things)
 
those are easy to catch... use Snatch... it goes up a little and down after a while... there you have you're chance to go close and Buster it.... or when they fly up snatch them and their yours

I meant when Agnus turns them into one big blade and throws that at you >.>

THAT I cant catch, the fishes on their own are no problem :D
 
I never knew you can do a buster move on the Echidna fight, when I get my PS3 fixed i'll have to try it.

Bummer
Ill still give it a go when I am next playing, sounds like it might take more a few tries.
 
Another thing you can do which I just tried is when you buster her you can press the exceed button tons of times and he'll keep ramming the sword into her, not sure if it does any more damage though ^_^

Complaining about free damage, are we?

I should seriously try to do it. It is just one of those that I've never felt the need to use, so I haven't risked trying it.

Not as free. If you fail at it you have a serious issue:lol:
