Eyebeams Pew Pew
Comes in two varieties.
The first, and nicest, is where the boss enters a periodic phase where he emits some beam-like attack, usually while slowly spinning in a circle.
The second are Omega Beam type rays which actively home in on one or more players (and will hurt any innocents in the line of fire). Either way, it's time to Run Away Little Girl.
