The '''Boost Guardian''' is the [[Warrior Ing]] that | The '''Boost Guardian''' is a boss from ''[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]''. It is the [[Warrior Ing]] that robbed [[Samus Aran|Samus]] of her [[Boost Ball]] when she first encountered Dark Samus on [[Aether]]. Samus battles the Boost Guardian in the [[Dark Torvus Arena]], a chamber without any [[Light Crystal]]s or [[Light Crystal#Light Beacon|Light Beacons]] to generate [[Safe Zone]]s, increasing the difficulty. | ||
Samus cannot damage the Boost Guardian while it is Boosting, though its attacks can be interrupted with [[Morph Ball Bomb|Bombs]] or by an impact with the pillars in the room that house [[Inglet | ==Battle== | ||
The Boost Guardian's primary form of attack is Boosting, in much the same fashion as Samus uses the ability with the Boost Ball.<ref name="Logbook"/> However, it will also utilize attacks used primarily by [[Warrior Ing]], including slashing and transdimensional energy beams. | |||
The Boost Guardian begins standing upright. It will use its Warrior Ing attacks, then it will enter Boost Ball mode. Samus cannot inflict damage on the Boost Guardian while it is Boosting, though its attacks can be interrupted with [[Morph Ball Bomb|Bombs]] or by an impact with the pillars in the room that house [[Inglet]]s. If it is forced out or interrupted during its Boost attack, the Boost Guardian will go into a puddle form and track Samus. When the Boost Guardian is in this amorphous form, Samus must avoid it via the [[Morph Ball]] and dropping [[Morph Ball Bomb|Bombs]] in its path. | |||
After the Boost Guardian has been impacted by enough Bombs, it will revert into its vulnerable solid form. The pattern will repeat until the Boost Guardian is defeated. | |||
After Samus defeats the Boost Guardian, she reclaims the Boost Ball, which can be used to find many [[Missile Expansion]]s and [[Energy Tank]]s located near [[Half Pipe]]s. | |||

*In an interview with {{wp|IGN}}, Bryan Walker of [[Retro Studios]] revealed that he was unable to defeat the Boost Guardian without taking the game into debug mode.<ref>{{Cite web|quote= This was the topic of a lot of discussion during and even after we shipped, but the boost ball guardian was brutal. I confess here and now that I was never able to beat it without going into debug mode," he admits, laughing.| url= http://wii.ign.com/articles/101/1016511p6.html| title= A Space Bounty Hunter in Texas| site= IGN}}</ref> | |||
