Welcome to my second attempt at writing an FAQ!  Since Banjo-Tooie is one of my 
favorite 
games, I decided to write an in-depth FAQ on how to beat the bosses.  I hope this 
will
help you beat Banjo-Tooie.  Enjoy!

                        4.  | Klungo: Minion With a Mission |
                            |_______________________________|

Your first boss battle is the easiest.  Klungo will do a random selection of one of 
three
potions, and then the battle begins.  I don't remeber the potion colors, but Klungo 
can turn
invisible, grow large, or clone himself.  (Please e-mail me if you know the correct 
potion
colors.)  Only 3 hits will bring him down.  If he turns invisible, roll into his 
shadow.  
If he grows large, Rat-a-Tat Rap him (jump, then hit B).  If Klungo clones himself, 
roll 
into the last Klungo to start moving.  Whenever you hit him, he will shield himself 
and hurl
potions at you.  Dodge 'em.  Klungo will attack again.  No prob.  Dodge potions, 
attack,
and repeat.  The fight will end in no time.  

About the potions:

Blue= Creates Klungo clones.
Green= Makes him invisible.
Red= Makes him grow larger.

Also, in the first game slot, it usually goes in that order of potion usage.


                        _____________________________________
                   5.  | Targitzan: Despotic Dizzy Totem God |
                       |_____________________________________|

The second battle is a little tougher, but it's nothing you can't handle, right?  
Good. 
This battle is in Breegull Blaster mode, so I hope you now how to move in this mode.
Use the regular blue eggs.  When Targitzan starts spinning, hold R to aim at the 
targets
on his bottom segment.  Hit Z to fire when one comes into range.  After you shoot 
out all
four targets the big bad boss summons his minions, the Moggies.  Blast 'em all and 
get
ready for Round 2.  Watch out for the sporadic shooting of darts.  Blast the targets.
Blast the Moggies.  Keep shooting the targets (it gets tougher) and the Moggies until
Targitzan readies his Sacred Self-Destruct.  Run behind one of the grey blocks (if 
the
darts didn't destroy all of them) or run as far away as you can.  When the dust 
clears,
Targitzan will be no more.

                        ______________________________________
                   6.  | Old King Coal: Grubby Boiler Monarch |
                       |______________________________________|

Why is this battle easier than the last?  Anyhow, don't worry about it.  Grab your 
Grenade eggs and get ready for a fight.  Stand on one of the bobbing objects (?) and
go into Egg Aiming mode (C-Up).  Now just fire egg after egg after egg at OKC.  His
limbs will start to fall off at certain points in his health bar.  When his energy 
is 
low, he'll turn things up a notch by activating fumes.  Now there's a time limit.  
Just keep plugging him with Grenade Eggs and you'll win.  You can use also Ice Eggs 
on him 
to take away 5 Hit Points.  Easier than Klungo!

                      ____________________________________________
                 7.  | Mr. Patch: Strange Wobbly Inflatable Thing |
                     |____________________________________________|

Here's where things start to heat up.  This battle requires the Airborne Egg Aiming
move, so go get it.  When you enter the big top, equip your Grenade Eggs.  The newly-
inflated Mr. Patch with start to wobble around the big top.  Shoot him on one of his
patches.  Do this until he tells you that you have to face him from the air.  Why?
If you dawdle on the ground, boxing gloves will pop up and cause you pain.  Take to
the air, hit C-Up, and start shooting the patches.  With each successive hit, he 
shrinks
in size.  Watch out for the beach balls he shoots out of his mouth.  Destroy them 
with 
Grenade Eggs.  Shoot the patches until Mr. Patch is totally deflated.  Beware:  when 
he's
smaller he will be harder to hit.

                      _____________________________________________
                 8.  | Lord Woo Fak Fak: Self-Important Anglerfish |
                     |_____________________________________________|

I'd recommend transforming into a submarine for this fight; you have to use Sub-Aqua 
Egg
Aiming if you don't.  But if you choose to use eggs, use the Grenade Eggs.  First 
off, 
swim to where you have a view of the fish's side.  See any flashing yellow boils?  
If you
do, shoot them.  If you don't, go to the other side of this marine menace.  Shoot 
any 
flashing yellow boils.  Repeat the process, all the while avoiding the projectiles.  
Once 
all the boils are bust, Lord Fak will open his eyes. Now swim in front of him 
(dodging 
projectiles)and shoot him in the eyes until he rolls over.  You win!

                         ________________________________
                    9.  | Klungo: Revenge-Seeking Minion |
                        |________________________________|

Identical to last time, only Klungo's aim is a little better and he moves faster.

                         ________________________________________
                   10.  | Terry:  Disgruntled Pterodactyl Parent |
                        |________________________________________|

I told you the bosses were getting tougher.  When the battle starts, the camera 
shifts
to Terry 's view, but still giving you a shot of the bird.  Run around the nest, 
dodging...something.  Terry leads his shots, so head one way, and right before he 
hurls
at you, change direction.  Very difficult, but you'll soon get the hang of it.  Keep
dodging the unknown substance until the camera focuses on Banjo again.  Go into Egg 
Aim
mode and fire Grenade Eggs at the dino.  He'll then send Mucoids down to attack you.
Roll through them for health after wiping the last one up (couldn't resist :P).  The 
original sequence will then repeat, only Terry's aim will be better and the 
substance will
fly faster.  Keep dodging, shooting, and rolling until Terry succumbs to your 
superior
power.  HA HA HA!!!

                       _________________________________________
                 11.  | Weldar: Visually-Impaired Welding Torch | 
                      |_________________________________________|

Even if you don't think Weldar is funny, his name is.  You'll be using Grenade Eggs 
again.
Weldar will try to suck you into his tank.  Fire a Grenade Egg in there, which will 
explode
in Weldar's tank, causing damage.  Next, he'll leap into the air to try and crush 
you.  Use
the Talon Trot to run around and avoid his shadow.  Upon landing, he'll then chase 
you and
try to suck you into his tank.  Fire a Grenade Egg in there.  Now he'll send some 
nuts and
bolts after you and then jump into the air.  Dispose of them and watch Weldar's 
shadow.  
Avoid him.  Get ready for another round of suckage, with subsequent Grenade Eggage, 
resulting in damage.  Now Weldar will send power to energy ropes on the floor these 
will 
cause you damage.  Another round of nuts and bolts, more jumping into the air, and 
Weldar 
will try to suck you into his tank once more.  I think you know what to do...

            ____________________________________________________________________
      12.  | Chilli Billi: Hot 'N Spicy Dragon/Chilly Willy: Cold 'N Icy Dragon |
           |____________________________________________________________________|

Note:  Whichever dragon you face 2nd will _always_ be tougher.  I mean that by he 
will be faster
       and more accurate.  I also believe that whoever you face second has twice the 
health as
       his previous brother.

Finally, two characters in a video game who like pizza!  Of course, I don't agree 
with 
assaulting the delivery boy.  For Chilli Billi, use Ice Eggs.  For Chilly Willy, use 
Fire
Eggs.  Once the battle starts, the dragon will attempt to hit you with a fire or ice 
ball.
Run to a cannon and fire whichever egg you should use into the cannon's hole.  It 
will be 
magnified and always hit the dragon.  Fire another egg into the cannon while the 
dragon is 
dazed.  After two hits, the dragon will try to lick you by extending its tongue and 
raking 
it on the perimeter of the platform.  Jump over the tongue until the dragon stops.  
Keep 
shooting eggs into the cannon holes and jumping over the dragon's tongue.  WARNING:  
EACH
CANNON _WILL_ DISAPPEAR AFTER IT HAS FIRED THREE EGGS.  Now go whup the other dragon!

                         _________________________________________
                   13.  | Mingy Jongo: Crafty Shaman Impersonator |
                        |_________________________________________|

The evil Shaman lookalike must be punished for impersonating Mumbo.  Anyhow, you 
won't be using
eggs, because that noodle brain doesn't give you enough time to fire eggs.  Once the 
fight
starts, dodge Mingy's shots while trying to roll into him.  Even though it's hard, 
this 
fight is pretty basic:  dodge the shots, attack the robot.  Near the end of the 
fight, he 
will warp around to shoot you.  The magic blasts will track you, too.  Also, Mingy's 
magic
stick will occasionally fizzle out, so you can attack him while he stands still.  If 
he
warps into a window space, Rat-a-Tat Rap him.  Just keep rolling, dodging, and Rat-a-
Tat
Rapping until the impersonator explodes.  

                            ___________________________________

                           |___________________________________|

Same as last time.  Now he's learned to lead his shots and move faster.  Kick his 
sorry
butt one last time so he can wreck Bottles' house.  WAIT!  SPOILER!  YOU DIDN'T READ 
THAT!
Well, since I _am_ showing you all the bosses, this FAQ is a spoiler anyway...

                    15.  | Hag 1: Monstrous Mechanical Mud-Muncher |
                         |_________________________________________|

THIS IS IT!!!  The final battle!  Time to beat up Gruntilda Winkybunion and her 
alliteration-
nicknamed digger!  This fight is pretty complicated, so pay attention.  First, 
change to 
Grenade Eggs.  (You'll thank me later on.)  Now jump over the lasers emanating from 
the
killer machine.  When Grunty pops out, she'll ask you a question.  Give a correct 
answer,
she'll use a slow(er) attack.  Answer wrong, lookout.  Fast attack.  Anyway, you go 
into 
Breegull Blaster mode to face the hag.  Fire Grenade Eggs at her (use the left and 
right
C Buttons to sidestep, btw) while dodging spells.  Once Grunty's health is depleted 
(slightly),
you'll have to deal with...MORE LASERS!  Keep jumping the lasers, answering 
questions correctly,
and shooting Grunty until she fires up Mortar 1.  Dodge the shell and its shrapnel.  
Eventually
you'll have to cope with more questions and shooting.  Out comes Mortar 2.  Dodge 
both shots,
answer the question correctly, and blast Grunty.  The mortars are called back and 
the drill
starts up.  However, the exhaust port must open to allow the vehicle to drive 
around.  Hurdle
the lasers while it spins and avoid the drill.  Grunty will drive towards you for a 
short
time and then suddenly change direction, causing you to have to jump the lasers.  
But then
the vehicle will stall.  Quickly change to Clockwork Kazooie Eggs and fire one near 
the exhaust
port.  Jump in, avoid the Ugger, stand next to a battery, and hit B to blow up.  
Repeat.
After the Hag 1 is busted, you will have to endure more questions and Bregull 
Blaster mayhem.
Grunty will send out Uggers to deal with you.  Use the Beak Bayonet (hit B) to 
waste 'em.
Once the witch's health reaches 15, she makes the Hag 1 emit gas.  Quickly blast 
Grunty until
she has one health point left.  DODGE THE FINAL SPELL, SHOOT HER, AND ENJOY THE 
ENDING!!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!  YOU HAVE BEATEN BANJO-TOOIE'S BOSSES!!!!!
