Beat Gotenks with These Strategies and Tips in Xenoverse 2

The sidequests are an important part of Xenoverse 2 and are highly interesting. One such side quest involves passing advancement tests and levelling up.

These advancement tests allow you to learn new moves from Masters you defeat. The final enemy of advancement test God, Gotenks has proven to be a huge obstacle.

He uses problematic attacks such as the Super Ghost attack. This makes it quite hard to deal with him. However, following a few strategies and tips can help you easily get through the advancement exam.

Without further ado, let me lay down the basic strategies and tips you can use to advance in these exams.

As a general rule, keep your health bar full to defeat Gotenks. Switch to Super Saiyan 3 during your fight with Hercules and defeat everyone as quickly as possible. Attack Gotenks with a barrage of attacks and start running when he turns SSJ3, it’ll tire him out and nullify his attack.

Strategy To Defeat Gotenks!

Beating Gotenks will allow you to move from Advancement test God to Advancement test Superclass. To achieve this you must understand the attack pattern of Gotenks.

Before the match, equip yourself with health capsules, this will allow you to have a better chance of beating Gotenks. The less health you lose during a match, the better would be your rating.

During the match, refrain from using major attacks before Gotenks transforms into SSJ3. Immediately during his transformation, use a lot of Ultimate and Super attacks. Use long combos to finish him off.

You might face trouble with his Super Ghost attack, the only way to win against this is to not let him complete his attack. Go around him and break his stamina before he can use this problematic attack on you.

Tips For Beating Gotenks!

  • Gotenks is vulnerable and not immune to damage during his transformation. Attacking him with a lot of ultimates and supers during the transformation might do the trick.
  • Use a lot of major attacks like Ki blasts, Ultimates and Super during his vulnerable state.
  • Gotenks uses his Super ghost attacks and creates a lot of ghosts. These ghosts shield him from the damage and you will not be able to do much after the activation. So try and stop him before he can do that.
  • If you find Gotenks trying to do his ultimate attack, be quick, and do the super dash back. This will break his stamina and cancel the attack.
  • If you are super close to him, during his ultimate attack, use a heavy charge attack, this will also work similarly and break his stamina.
  • If you are worried about taking a lot of damage, try using the regeneration capsules.
  • Break enemies’ guard, this can be done by getting higher strike stats, and using the Justice combination.
  • You can also get higher Ki stats and pierce through the guard using Super Cannon.
