I guess those who'll stumble upon this thing in the distant future will question why the heck this description starts with me apologising for not making X DiVE videos. I'll make that quick, don't worry, my uncle was Quickman. Asia Version of DiVE released Third Armor X update with one major bug that does not let people to update the game or even start it up on some Android devises and on Bluestacks. ShadowRockZX made a video about how to solve this problem, but it didn't work on me and, as a bonus, I caught one Bluestacks bug that doesn't let me get rid of a new instances I've created so I'm running really low on momery left right now. Let's hope at least DiVE will start to work again soon. I'm playing in it from my old phone and it's painful. Back on track, I got some free time and decided to continue my X1 Playthrough. This time we'll be battling against huge electric mandrill... who has the Spark Mandrill Syndrome. More on that later. As you can see, I wasn't able to get one Heart Tank on this stage. I showed where it is, but my hands are not that good to react fast enough wile pressing Dash and Jump buttons at the same time. Maybe you'll be able to do that? I know it's possible, but it's hard as heck. This stage is short and the most troublesome parts are the beginning with spark pipes, second pitch black segment with fireflies flying in your face and that Goddamn mid-boss who's harder than the boss himself. This freakin' mid-boss is a giant cell that was growing for 10 years, got a mechanical armor around its core, which can absorb electricity to then blast its enemies... and it also can throw its cytoplasm at others. How the funk does that even work? Oh, right. It's 21XX, why am I even asking? This stage's boss is Spark Mandriller. Or, as I call him, The Walking Festoon. I can actually imagine how hard he is without Shotgun Ice, but since almost everyone was starting from Icy Penguigo, it probably was the easiest boss out of 8 Irregulars. This boss suffers infamous “Spark Mandrill Syndrome“. Basically, when boss gets hit by their weakness, they will froze and after invincibility frames go away, you can immediately stun the boss again, and again, and again until they die. If you manage to time it all well - you'll not even need to move a single inch. Vanishing Gungaroon from X7 also suffers this syndrome, but since he was the first one for me... I got to see it only at the Soul Asylum, and everything was laggy so it didn't work out for me. OK, we freeze the monkey to death, get his weapon - Electric Spark - and head on to the next boss - Armor Armarge. This will be a tough one...
