Like you take on Trickmaster and you have no idea about the lock on attack with R. So your just using A to beat him. I did it. I got stuck on the 3rd/last fight against the Trickmaster and still had no idea about it. I almost defeated him without the lock on attack. He had like what 1 hp left? So just one or maybe two attacks and he would be finished. After that attempt I decided to change some stuff. And then noticed the lock on attack. Lol.

 

This type of thing happen to anyone else?

i beat him without lock attack it was pretty tough at first but then it was pretty easy.

i beat him with it my bro found it out for me while i was shuvveling

yeah happened to me

You can lock on with A or R.

You can lock-on with R? lol I've been using A. I actually thought maybe holding A down would just make me fire like crazy but apparently not lol I kept locking on.

ye happened to me too , it was a bit hard beating him without the lock but i managed

I did. Though I think I pressed R a few times and used the lock on attack without knowing it. I was pretty much just button mashing the entire time.

I prefer using the A lock-on, since they're both the same.
