The rocky arena in which you face off against Great Ape Vegeta in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero is one of the major factors to win this fight. You will be able to hide behind the various cliffs while coming up with an attack plan, knock down the giant against the surface, and more. Knocking him down will leave Great Ape Vegeta stunned for a few short seconds.

Rush Chains with Heavy Finishers can take down Vegeta and you will be able to slam him against the cliffs. You can then unleash Ki Blasts to deal devastating damage. Rush attacks are a great way to deal a lot of damage in quick succession.

If you want to charge your Ki, make sure to hide behind the rocky cliffs, or else Vegeta's attacks will find you and knock you out.
