MegaMan X 


List of Weapons: 


Lightning Web- Fires an electric web that can trap and destroy enemies.
You can also use it to jump on.Charged- Becomes a giant web that takes
several enemies at once, destroying what it touches.  You can't jump on
this.  

Rising Fire- Throws a fireball upward.  Useful on airborne enemies, also
useful on blocks of ice unbreakable by normal weapons.  Charged-
ShinRyuKen, a powerful fireball uppercut.  It then throws the flame
upward.  

Aiming Laser- With the notches like a speedometer, push up or down to
move the aimer.  Move it over an enemy and it will automatically lock
on.  Charged- Power Laser, it just shoots a laser out, a bit useful on
Storm Owl.  

Double Cyclone- Fires two energy  balls sideways and levitates upward.
Charged- Two cyclones shoot left and right, major damage.  

Ground Hunter- Fires small stingray drones on the ground and hits all
ground enemies.  Hit down before landing for a faster land.  Charged- A
large Stingray drone flies through the air and kills what it touches.
Only goes one direction; straight forward.  

Soul Body- Throws an energy-created body of you in front of you.  Useful
if you don't feel like shooting people up close.  Charged- Makes a
double of you and you freeze, but the drone moves around, shooting. Both
are invincible, so use it occasionally, just in case.  

Twin Slasher- Fires two energy slashes in mid-air, one going diagonally
upward, one going a little more straight.  Charged- Mega Slasher, it
shoots the slasher that fills up nearly a full 90ø radius, a quarter
of a circle.  It will hit people straight above, if they are close and
within range.  

Frost Tower- Creates an ice shield around you.  Freezes anything it
touches.  Charged: Ice Rain, several giant ice crystals fall from the
sky, freezing and destroying nearly anything.  


Enemy Stradegy:  


Web Spider- This is usually one of the EASIEST people once you know the
stradegy.  First, he'll drop a few 'feet' away from you.  Make sure you
have charged up your X-Buster, then blast him.  Twin Slasher works well
on him.  He'll then shoot out his web, but if lucky, (and fast) he
won't.  After half his energy is gone, he'll go nuts, then make a giant
web.  He runs all around it, firing his spider drones and web.  When his
arms are not near his face, it's the drones.  When they are next to his
face, he's about to fire his web.  A good tip is to time the hit, since
he is invulnerable for 2 seconds after you shoot him.  

Cyber Peacock- This guy is fairly easy.  Use the Soul Body to knock him
out of the screen.  Do this fast, and you won't get hurt.  If he appears
in the air, use it again, and he won't shoot you with his feathers.  

Storm Owl-  Use Aiming Laser on him, and you should be fine.  He's
fairly easy if you hit him on time. You'll have to dodge his energy
shots if you miss him.  

Magma Dragoon- This guy is the hardest boss yet.  Grab the robot suit
and blast through the rocks below, dodging fireballs and Repliforce
soldiers.  Use the robot suit to fight Magma.  If the suit is blasted
before you kill him, jump on walls, or just simply dodge his fireballs,
countering with charged blasts.  Double Cyclone works good against him.
He jumps on the other side when he's hit with it.  

Jet Stingray- This boss is a little hard.  Use Frost Tower. Jump under
him before he blasts out his drones, he'll freeze.  He'll fly up.  He
may fly down, fire drones, fly up and attack you vertically, (simply
dash out of the way) or lower down and use his suction, all depending on
his energy..  After the suction, he shoots horizontally at you.  Jump
that.  After he's in the yellow  zone, he fires red drones.  That's
about it for him.  Honestly, he's that easy.  

Split Mushroom- Make sure you use Lightning web on him, before he runs
at you.  Fire RIGHT before he lands, and he's a goner.  He'll jump to
the other side, or his drone will dissipitate and he'll fire soul bodies
at you.  Keep this up and he's a dead fungi.  

Slash Beast- Second hardest boss.  When he has one paw back with it
glowing, he's gonna fly at you.  Jump over that.  He may do that twice.
He jumps alot, so watch out.  And when he's backwards, get ready.  His
Twin Slasher is going to shoot out.  Ground Hunters make him trip almost
no matter what.  He's fast, so watch it.  

Frost Walrus- The EASIEST boss on here.  Use Rising Fire when his ice
spikes on him are out to send him flying.  On his first half of energy,
he'll slide at you in his tank form, so jump off the wall before he
hits.  When he breathes smoke, shoot him as much as you can, then run to
the other side of the arena.  After the crystal falls, let the spikes
crash, then toss the rising fire.  Repeat till dead. 

 Colonel (first)- Easy once you get the hang of it. If he disappears,
jump.  He'll reappear under you, slashing at you.  He either disappears
again and slashes, or slides to the other side and throws some energy
cuts at you.  Dash, jump, and dash again.  It's easy.  Colonel (second)-
Much faster and harder.  Once he throws his energy cuts at you, dash,
jump, and dash again QUICKLY.  If he disappears, jump.  Remember to time
the jumps only a second after he disappears  If he's in the middle,
don't stand on the green spots, and jump over the electricity when he
sticks the sword in the ground.  He'll also send a huge earthquake at
you, but just jump on the wall and dodge.  Follow these instructions and
you shall rule.  

Double- Fast dude, he morphs to a larger dude. When he does his Viva
Flash, dodge his large diagonal slash by jumping on the opposite wall,
then stay,  He'll horizontally slash, missing you completely.  When he
says Destroy!, Dodge as best you can.  Large slashes will also appear
when he's low on energy, so be quick.  Dat's it.  

General- Fairly easy.  Stay on the opposite wall and wait till he fires
his fists at you.  They move slow, but not far enough.  DO NOT JUMP ON
THE FISTS.  It's too much trouble dodging the energy balls to begin
with!  Use charged blasts at his head.  Boom, he go byebye.  


Bosses- (see above)  


Position of pods- On left side and going down, it's Web Spider, Cyber
Peacock, Jet Stingray, and Split Mushroom.  Right side and going down,
Magma Dragoon, Storm Owl, Frost Walrus, and Slash Beast.  It's similar
to the stage select screen.  

Sigma (Grim Reaper)- VERY easy.  You should get through without a
scratch.  Be sure to have your rising fire.  When he appears above you
the first two times, throw the fireball.  The third time he appears, be
sure to be on the opposite wall, then jump over him when he comes at
you.  Sigma (normal)-He grabs his sickle and tosses it at you, in a
circular pattern.  Be sure to be behind him.  The second time he tosses
it, make sure it hits the wall, then jump on the wall behind him when he
shoots his eye beams.  You DON'T wanna know what he does when it hits
the ground... Let's just say that it can take off half your energy.
Charged X busters work well.  

Sigma (Big Gun and Big Ugly Head)- HARD.  When you see the colored heads
and nothing else, remember; Yellow for lightning, Red for fire, Blue for
ice and water.  When the Yellow head is in mid-air, the center of the
room almost, he'll shoot lightning balls.  Honestly, I have not made it
through without being hit except once.  But you should go from one side
to the other, walking normally, but jumping over the electricity.  When
the red is on the left side, he's in control.  Jump on the other heads,
wait for the triple fireballs.  (Don't worry, they are a bit slow.)
Before they make it to you, drop down.  Then jump over the last
fireball, or dash if you just slid down.  When the blue head is at the
right, he takes power.  Jump on the head on top, dodging its ice.  Big
Gun Sigma appears, then listen carefully.  If he says 'The End', jump
oce he shoots.  He fires a laser that hits the ground completely.  The
Big Ugly Head is slightly harder.  When you see the blue head in front
of it, let yourself be sucked onto it, then blast the oncoming junk.
After the sucking stops, jump on the red head, and you won't get hurt.
Use ground hunter on him as fast as possible.  When the heads are in the
air, dash and use ground hunters as you are being pushed.  Tip: Both the
Big Gun and Ugly Head Sigma have two different life bars, so don't think
that you already killed one dude and think it's over. Where stuff is: 


Heart Tanks- 


Jungle (Web Spider)- Very easy if you have rising fire.  In the second
area, you will see a part with robotic 'stumps'.  There are a few that
stick out, and if you see a bare stump with very little tech stuff
except on top and bottom, toss the rising fire and you should see it. It
is after the first web eye.  

Network Tester (Cyber Peacock)- You must get a rank 'S'.  It's fairly
easy.  Keep using dash button and the soul body, and you got it done.
You also get an energy tank and a capsule.  

Air Base (Storm Owl)- Easy to find, hard to get.  On the first laser
beam that strikes vertically downward, dash immediately onto the
platform before it is destroyed.  You got a heart tank!  Volcano 

(Magma Dragoon)- After you fight the first soldier in the second area,
go all the way up.  This will destroy your way of beating Dragoon better
by no suit, unless you still have it.  Jump out and try to dash to the
cliff on the side at the top.  It's hard unless you have the boot
enhancement. If you do, just barely make it by hitting dash before you
pass it as you fall.  

Marine Base (Jet Stingray)- As you drive, don't jump over the third
bottomless pit.  Let yourself drop and grab the heart tank,  then jump
over the fourth pit.  

Bio Laboratory (Split Mushroom)-  At the second area where you see the
'diggers' on the roof ready to send the place to pieces, jump to the
right, then on the falling terrain, and immediately jump over the digger
and on to the edge.  This is very hard and fast.  

Military Train (Slash Beast)- After you get the suit, destroy the
trains.  You can see it sitting there like a bump on a log. You can also
find it on top of there.  

Snow Base (Frost Walrus)- On the beginning of the first stage, defeat
the two robots.  You climb up, then you jump and see the heart tank.
Throw the fireball upward at it.  You got tha hearttank!  

Energy Tanks: 

Network Tester (Cyber Peacock)- Get an 'S' rating on the second or third
or first part of the area.  

Marine Base (Jet Stingray)- Hard to get.  At the second area before you
reach the end and after Stingray disappears, jump on to the large
platform by jumping off of something, then jump and dash, being level
with that platform.  You ride off with the energy tank.  

Weapon Tank: 

Snow Base (Frost Walrus)- Easy.  When you start to see the ice blocks,
go up and destroy them.  Stay high, and you should see it.  

EX Tank: 

Snow Base (Frost Walrus)- After you see the ice slides with the skiers,
go all the way to the right and climb up.  Us the Lightning Web and hop
off that and up.  


Enhancements: 


Boot Enhancement: 

Jungle (Web Spider)- In the first stage, go all the way to the right.
When you drop down and see the spinning thing that stops when you shoot,
go down just below it.  Go right and jump, enter the capsule.  

X-Buster enhancement: 

Air Base (Storm Owl)- After you destroy the first wave of beam bots, on
the row of spikes, get across.  After you pass that, DO NOT ENTER THE
DOOR YET.  Get all the way to the right on that small terrain with the
spikes down the left side.  Toss the Lightning Web and jump off that,
keeping on the left.  You have two choices; the quadra blast or the
Plasma enhancement.  I prefer the Plasma Enhancement, because it leaves
a ball of energy that destroys anything it touches.  You can't fire
regular shots, but you can keep on chargin!!!  

Armor Enhancement: 

Volcano (Magma Dragoon)- On the second area after you see the suit, you
should see the edge on the right.  Jump to that, and use a charged Twin
Slasher.  You walk and you get the armor enhancement.  This lowers pain
and damage to  X.  

Helmet Enhancement: 

Network Tester (Cyber Peacock)- Get an 'S' rating on one of the three
parts.  With the helmet, you have an infinite use of your weapons,
except charged!! (Not including the X-Buster) 

------------------------------------------------------------

Zero 


Weapons (I try my best on the names) 

Hyouretzusan- Thrusts an ice lance downward. When in mid-air, hit down
and Triangle. It will usually just freeze an enemy. 

Kuuenbu- Jump in air twice, also get to use a spinning attack. Hit the
jump button twice. Once you are in mid-air, hit the attack button. 

Raijingeki- Rising fire with the sword. Hit up and triangle while on the
ground.

(The rest I do not know the japanese names) 

Air Dash- Allows you to dash in mid-air. Hit dash in mid-air.

Z-Saber enhancement- Self explanatory.  You can block normal energy
shots now. Hit attack, and you should notice that your Z-saber is
purple.

Lighning God Attack- Thrusts an electric sword forward. Hit triangle
while on the ground. 

Dashing slash- A powerful slash that you do while dashing.  Comine with
the normal slash for a pretty powerful combo!! Just hit attack while
dashing.

Fan Explosion- Throws bombs outward in a fan-like motion. Hit R2 or the
Giga Attack.

Bosses: 

Web Spider- Use Spinning saber alot, or normal air slash.  Same stradegy
as X. Just keep your distance when he shoots his web.

Cyber Peacock- Use Raijingeki.  Same stradegy. Keep predicting where
he's going to be, and watch out for his fan attack. 

Storm Owl- Hard dude.  Dodge his weapons alot.  If he is about to throw
the four energy balls at you, simply use the fan of energy. Keep
slashing at him, because he won't stop moving except to throw beams and
such.

Magma Dragoon- If you like to play fighting games and are really good,
use that against him. I suggest getting some other attacks by beating
some bosses before him. This way you actually have a chance against him.
o_O 

Jet Stingray- Use Hyouretzusan.  Same Stradegy. Just keep destroyying
the drones, and keep getting up close to him. 

Split Mushroom- Use Thunder God attack.  Same stradegy. Only that you
have to throw the attack a little before right when he lands.  

Slash Beast- Spin and jump alot.  Same Stradegy. Again, it's like a
fighting game, so keep moving. 

Frost Walrus- Use Raijingeki.  Same stradegy. Basically it., 

Colonel- Same stradegy as X. Only you have to get close to him and such.
When he teleports, double jump then spin attack him.

Iris- Fairly easy.  Hit her as many times as possible before the crystal
comes out.  When it finally does, take out as many of the bombs as
possible, since they come towards you and can take some serious damage
from you.  The crystal stays below you when Iris is about to blast you,
then right when Iris blasts, it stays still and fires vertically.  Iris
and the crystal will slowly but steadily come towards you, then she
flies back, and it repeats with the crystal locking on. 

General- Hard.  When he comes on your side, slash at his head alot. But
keep jumping up to keep from getting hit by his shoulder. o_O

Sigma (Grim Reaper)- Use Raijingeki.  Same stradegy. Predict and slash. 

Sigma (Normal)- Same Stradegy. Just more upclose.

Sigma (Big Gun and Ugly Head)-  Same stradegy on colored heads.  Big Gun 
Sigma, when he says 'The End', double jump over the beam.  Destroy the
red head if he doesn't, and move forward a bit, out of range of Sigma
and away from the gun.  Keep slashing at him.  Ugly Head, same stradegy,
except dash and use the dash slash. 

Items are same as above, not including enhancements.  EX tank, you
double jump instead of using the web.
