How to Defeat Vegeta (Simulated) in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot

Vegeta (Simulated) is fought during the Cell Saga, and you will be controlling Vegeta for this fight. Before you even begin, make sure to heal the real Vegeta, otherwise, you will start the fight at a disadvantage.

Vegeta (Simulated) fights pretty much like the real Vegeta, so you should have no trouble taking him down, especially if you have grown comfortable with the character and the battle system in general. Both his short and long-range attacks are easy to dodge, and if you keep your distance at all times, and use Ki attacks, you may even be able to finish him off without him even landing a hit on you.

Among the attacks that work best are the Consecutive Energy Shot, which is great at stopping the simulation’s offensive, and Galick Gun, especially after dodging the simulation’s own Galick Gun. Don’t fire it off randomly, as the boss may be able to dodge it and retaliate with some of his powerful melee attacks.

When Vegeta (Simulated) gets close to you, block or dodge if you feel confident, and retaliate with a quick combo before resuming keeping your distance again. After a short while, with a proper offensive strategy, he will be defeated.
