Black Widow (Dirge of Cerberus)

Black Widow is a boss in Chapter 5 of Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII-. It is a relatively easy fight compared to some of the earlier bosses encountered. At a distance, its normal machine gun attack is easily avoided because the robot gets confused when the player passes to the other side of the room. This robot has a massively powerful laser attack, but it can be avoided by running in a zig-zag pattern. Also, when the Black Widow climbs up the walls onto the cieling, it is open for easy attacking. If they player deals enough damage, it will fall and reveal a light part, which is the weak point. If the player fails, the Black Widow will drop grenades from the cieling, but they can be easily dodged because they do not explode on impact, rather leaving a few seconds for the player to run away.
