    Of course, nothing is perfect, but I just couldn't get the right timing for the other strat. This worked for me.

    Maybe if before hitting him you pass under him during his jumping, your strat may not be RNG dependent. Anyway, i think my strat is much more consistent, if you didnt seen yet, please check my posts above (26 Mar 1:03 2018 and 27 May 22:30 2018).

    I personally found charging Silk Shot in the Crystal Snail's stage to be the easiest method. I tried every other method for 2 hours, and pulled off the SS strat on my first try.

    My method was a variation of sharivan method. I've do the same thing but with charged "Bubble S." because the bubble is active more time than buster shot, makes it easier to timing the vulnerable frame after Serges does it's "falling" animation.

    I uploaded a video with my strategy to kill him no-damage. https://youtu.be/0Dzb5_r0aBg

    There is an even easier variation of the charged Bubble strat than is shown in the video above. Simply charge up to purple charge with the buster outside of the boss room, switch to Bubble with the pause menu to not waste any weapon energy, and then immediately activate the charged Bubble shield when the fight starts. This allows for a guaranteed stun lock as long as your timing is correct.

    With this variation the achievement is virtually free.

    Strat using X-Buster: https://youtu.be/mTKvx2ugjtg .

    Imo this *by far* the easiest with charged Silk Shot in Crystal Snail's stage. If you fight him there and have a pink charge ready with Silk Shot equipped, Serges will halt completely and you can smack it at him for 6 damage. Position yourself in the middle with him near one of the walls for this ideally. Then you need to dodge one round of bullets using the wall and you can have the next charge ready and repeat.

    I just did @Madawk strat and it took me five tries. If I didn't got today, I would quit mastering this game. Now I am so pumped!

    After 30 minutes of resets, i finally made it, the Silk Shot on Crystal Snail is the best tactic to beat it. Just be aware of their shoots.

    Attacks:

    Land Mine - Serges places a mine on the ground that will grt in your way. A charger buster shot (any level) will get rid of it.

    Spin Shot - Serges leaps into the air and flips, sending out a spiral of energy sphere in the process. These will start at around 3 or 9 o'clock (whichever side of the arena you're on), and rotate around starting upwards. If he uses this from the center of the arena, dash under him and book it to the other lower corner. If uses it from the far side of the arena, wait for the first shots, then climb to the middle of the wall to dodge the last of them, and *be ready*: If he places a Land Mine, dash over him; if he jumps again, dash under. Either way, get to the other corner.

    Notes:

    - If Serges is hit while trying to place a Land Mine, he'll fail. Do everything in your power not to let him place them; one is fine, but two or more land mines quickly becomes a pain to deal with.

    - Hitting Serges will force him into his Spin Shot attack, *UNLESS* he's already in said attack. There's a bit of a delay though, just enough to charge a shot and destroy a single mine before moving, if need be.

    - With good timing during Spin Shot, you can jump, get a guaranteed hit in as he lands, and get on the wall to avoid the last shot, all in one move. Because he was already in the Spin Shot attack when you hit him, he won't be forced to do it again, though this doesn't mean he won't. You'll still need to react.

    - If there are too many mines, focus on clearing them out instead of damaging him. If you're lucky, you might be able to turn the tides back in your favor.

    - Like Agile, there's definitely a rhythm to this fight, though it's more complicated. Don't get discouraged; this fight *will* feel unfair at first, but it's not quite as bad once you finally get a feel for it.

    - I did this buster only. Some people are mentioning Silk Shot being useful? Might be worth looking into if you're having trouble.
