I decided to record a demo video of my "Reverse Boss Order" route. This is NOT a Speedrun.

What is the normal boss order ?

If you're using a natural route, you fight bosses in this order:
Dark Alpha Splinter | Bomb Guardian | Jump Guardian | Dark Samus 1 | Amorbis
Boost Guardian | Alpha Blogg | Grapple Guardian | Chykka
Spider Guardian | Power Bomb Guardian | Dark Samus 2 | Quadraxis

so if you want to play through the game in reverse order, it yould look like this:
Quadraxis | Dark Samus 2 | Power Bomb Guardian | Spider Guardian
Chykka | Grapple Guardian | Alpha Blogg | Boost Guardian
Amorbis | Dark Samus 1 | Jump Guardian | Bomb Guardian | Dark Alpha Splinter
Emperor Ing | Dark Samus 3

When is a Boss defeated ?

This Question might sound unnecessary, but I think it's imporatant to add.
A boss is defeated, if his HP bar reaches zero, you don't need to collect the Boss Item.

Why aren't Dark Missile Troopper or Caretaker Class Drone on this list

I decided to only fight non-optional Bosses and Bosses with an HP-Bar. Many players (including me) didn't even fight Dark Missile Trooper in their first playthrough. Caretaker Class Drone does not have a HP-Bar.

Why would you even do this ?

The things I love most about this game, are the Boss fights, I don't like any% that much, becuase you skip bosses like Quadraxis, Amorbis or Dark Samus 2, they're really fun I think.

Please enjoy the Video

and sorry for my bad english

this looks interesting.

i think not fighting Caretaker Drone is like not fighting Crocomire. he's part of the main bosses but doesn't directly give you an item. in a natural route, he's not skippable so avoiding him seems like bending the natural route rule a bit imo (if these rules applied to mp1, only 5 bosses would be fought)

the sad thing is, I probably would fight it, if I found a way to do so, there's no way of reaching it without Echo Visor. I had to bend the rules like you said, only because of that :/

As a little side not I've gotten into the battle with caretaker drone without echo visor before. The path where you exit via morph ball at the top you can get I to backwards with a screw attack. I've only been able to do it once where once in I didn't instantly revert to morph ball and instead was standing up in the morph ball tunnel. You move along the path and then continue to do screw attacks bouncing off the tunnel wall backwards from the direction of the tunnel as to get the bounce height needed to reach the top without morphing (kinda hard to explain unless you try it) but then you drop in from the top of the battle and it initiated the fight. The spider ball tracks don't work once inside and I found no way to actually hurt him but you most definitely can get in the battle via only the screw attack and from only the light world. Try messing around for a bit and see if anyone else can replicate because like I said I've only been able to get into the initial part of the morph ball tunnel once without the game instantly reverting me to a morph ball state because that's the key to maneuvering the entire path. You reach a part where you can't bomb jump high enough up and instead need to be standin in order to screw attack and continue

the spider ball tracks not working sounds like a room state issue. normally, to fight him, a trip to the dark world is needed. it wouldn't be a surprise if the room's state changes in that sequence.

sequence breaking ftw!

the same happened in the spider ball guardian fight

the spider track in the entrance wont work nor will the tracks in other areas till the end will work till you beat the guardian

oh and DONT power bomb the spider guardian you wont be able to get out and will have to start over

Can you stop bumping 5-6 old topics for no reason, with advice that's worse and/or very well known already? <_<

Also you're wrong, the tracks in the first and fourth rounds for spider guardian work but not second and third round, until you get spider ball.
