Boss Battle - General Qator Bashtar.

He is insanely quick, however while moving he will not attack so his speed isn't that theatening, what is are his moves. When he decides to stop chasing you and moving about, he will attack so prepare for it, dodge as best as you can before trying to attack. You will focus mostly on trying to hit the breaksight strikes to knowck him down and take him out. When he falls you will complete the Mission.
His move set is as follows:
- Waits a moment before charging you. Breaksight will appear before he attacks.
- He will shoot a machine gun at you while shifting left or right around you.
- He will shoot small pink energy balls that will home in on you.
- He will shoot a volley of explosive shells around you.
