Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero’s campaign lets you relive the iconic Dragon Ball story through the eyes of many characters. Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero’s What If branching paths, known as Sparking Episodes, allow fans to play out a different version of events from the anime.
Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero’s What If feature grants players the ability to alter the story by completing each mission’s side objective. In this instance, the reason why you fight and defeat Jeice rather than Burter is because you need to deflect Jeice’s Crusher Ball technique. This guide will show you where to locate the objective and how to deflect the Crusher Ball technique.
Where To Find The Objective
You’ll need toselect the ‘Arrival on Planet Namek’ chapterin Goku’s Saga. You’ll notice thegreen branching path icon beside the image, which signifies the opportunity for an alternate path.
The objective shown in the menu states you must Defeat Burter and Jeice, without showing you the alternate objective.
To find the full objectives list with the alternate objective,start the mission and load into the encounter. From there, simplyopen the pause menu and navigate to the Battle Details option. The main objective will always be similar to the one shown in the chapter select screen, whilstthe alternative objective is hidden inside the in-game menu.
The Battle Details option menu will be the same across all other branching path chapters.
How To Deflect A Crusher Ball
Perception is a defensive ability that cancounter/parry attacks from enemiesand is alsocapable of countering special movesif done correctly. To deflect the Crusher Ball,press and hold the Perception ability button (Circle on PlayStation and B on Xbox)when Jeice queues up his technique.
Before attempting to deflect the Crusher Ball, there area few things to note:
Perception will not counter basic Ki Blasts and will stagger if you are hit by them. Be mindful.
After successfully deflecting the Crusher Ball, Jeice will panic and flee the encounter by swapping out for Burter. Now that Jeice has fled, all you’ll have to do isdefeat Burter to complete the main objective. Once defeated, the story will proceed as usual with Jeice fleeing to Captain Ginyu’s side instead of Burter.
