Norfair Reserve Tank Room: Power Bomb with Damage Boost (Expert)

Dash jump from the door to the second ledge. Jump forward, morph, and place a Power Bomb on the ceiling between the second and third ledges. Press right as Samus begins falling. After falling for 1-2 blocks, unmorph. This will place Samus precisely in the path of a Dragon fireball to damage boost left. Samus can land on the lower item block, just before the block is destroyed in the Power Bomb explosion.
