Goku vs Vegeta tips
Before fighting Vegeta as Goku, you have a chance to explore the world at your leisure. Use this time to eat a few meals, get some training, and to make sure you have the best Super Attacks available. We recommend that you make sure you also have a good number of healing items to use in battle. Going to the top may not be the best option here, for example.
- Keep your distance from Vegeta and wait for him to attack first, dodge his chain attacks instead of blocking them
- Vegeta's Galick Gun is simple to dodge, wait for him to use, dodge and shoot from your own Kamehameha
- Attacks Vegeta after his anger subsides. This is a good window to throw everything you have on him
- Try to evade Vegeta's consecutive energy blast rather than block it. The blocking of this attack will likely end with the breaking of the guard
- If you've got some health to spare, going to Kaio-Ken to power up your attack might not be a bad cry.
- Try to dodge Vegeta's cutting energy attacks. If you manage to avoid one or two, try to approach and attack him, this should prevent him from using the annoying move
Goku vs Great Ape Vegeta tips
You won't have a chance to rest before fighting Big Bee Vegeta. Thankfully, however, you should level up once or twice after defeating Vegeta as Goku. This will bring health and Ki back. The great ape Vegeta deals a lot of damage, so try to avoid his blows.
- The great ape Vegeta hits hard, tries to avoid his blows and heals when needed
- Evade whenever Great Ape Vegeta starts aggressively slamming the ground, enter for a few hits after finishing this chain attack
- When Great Ape Vegeta jumps high, run away as fast as possible. You don't want to be there when it lands
- Avoid his Galick Gun at all costs, block if you can't dodge
- Use attacks like Kamehameha to deal damage from afar
- You should deal more damage to Big Bee Vegeta's head, so attack that spot if you can
Gohan vs Vegeta Tips
This is the simplest of the three fights against Vegeta, as he has already been hurt a lot up to this point. You should see that even like Gohan, you have a lot more health at this point than Vegeta, who attacks slower than before and more desperately. Once again though, you'll have the option to level up, have a meal, and make sure you have enough healing items equipped before starting this battle. While it's simpler, following these tips should help you:
- Dodge Vegeta's Galeta Gun and shoot a Masenko
- Here, too, melee attacks will work wonders
