Raiko's Time out phase 3, how to? The first two were ok then the third one is like "I kill u nao". I like that timeout spell. Way to go ZUN, you found some use for the divine spirit sounds instead of leaving in every game without using it.
I'd like to know this too, the difficulty suddenly just skyrockets in that phase and I don't want to bomb the hell out of it every time.
Here's a replay, if it helps.
Basically my strategy is to circle clockwise at the bottom of the screen, jumping one wave at a time.
Granted it still requires some "leaps of faith" near the end but it's much more doable than trying to dodge it in the middle of the screen.
EDIT: Screen shots to demonstrate how this works.
Step one - jump down through the wave that's moving upwards
Step two - this is the hardest step, jump left up through wave moving down. Timing is very important. In the first "hard" wave that you have to do this, do it early and more to the left. In the second time you do this, I find it easier just to do it later and dodge all three waves at the same time. YMMV
Step three - dodge the two waves coming from the right by moving right
And you are back to step 1!
The hard part lasts two cycles plus step 1. Once the last phase appears and you've circled twice and moved down to the bottom of the screen you can sit there until the thing finishes up and admire the beauty.
