How do you beat malafor on the last level? I have beaten him in the air but on the falling platform thing do you have to do all those things (for xbox360 A, A, X, Y) so many times or is there something else you have to do?

I am SOOOO stuck on the first boss! Not the golem, but the weird flying bug with a mask thing. I'm SOOO STUCK!!!!


Thats an elite enemy. You need to do the same element that is the same colour of the helmet. Eg:

Orange helment, you need to breath fire at it.
Green helmet, there are too elements that are green (earth and poisen) so it depens on the look of the helmet.

Sry about my spelling.
