No. You get a 1up (the only one in the entire game, not counting the EX stage) if you manage to "capture" Nue's attacks (treat it as a survival spellcard - in other words, you can't kill her in the orb state, but you shouldn't die or bomb). If you die or bomb, you only get a bomb instead.octagon wrote:By the way, I like how the item drop from stage 4 mid-boss Nue apparently works.
Meaning that the higher the difficulty you're playing on, the less likely you'll get the 1up, as her pattern is random and sometimes not very possible to dodge.
(Similarly, you get a Full Power item if you "capture" midboss!Nue's attacks in Stage 6, but only a large power item (which is worth 1.00 power) if you die or bomb.)
