Hint:
Capsule locations:
Armor capsule Go to Magma Dragoon level and proceed until reaching the part of
Volcano Area 2 where you have the armor. Get into it and dash jump
towards the platform. Get on to the platform, then charge twin slasher
to full power and destroy the blocks in front of you. Pass through and
get the armor upgrade.
Helmet capsule Go to the Cyber Peacock level and get a S rank on the third stretch
with the yellow balls that drains your energy. This is difficult to
accomplish, but possible.
Leg capsule Go to the Web Spider level and proceed to the part with the
waterfalls. When you drop down to the section below the part with the
spike spinning on the platform, just go through the gap on the right
side wall opposite to the hole.
Arm capsule Go to Storm Owl Area 2 with all the laser cannons. Get to the
section with the hole in the ceiling, with spikes on the floor and each
side of the wall. Use the lightning web weapon to jump onto the
platform. Above it are two capsules. One allows your fire four shots in
a row and the other allows you to fire a plasma bolt. The best choice is
the plasma bolt, as it keeps hitting the enemy after the first hit.
Note: Use the following
trick to get the Arm capsule easily. This requires the Body Armor. Go to
the Owls' second area, then go past the cannon area towards the Boss
door. Do not enter the door. Instead, there should be an opening in the
ceiling that is surrounded by spikes. Shoot a Lightning Web onto the
surface of the spikes. Dash Jump to it. Then, kick off it. Then, use the
Nova Strike to get to the capsule.
Ultimate capsule Begin game play as Dark X. Go to the Web Spider level and proceed to
where the leg capsule was located. Instead, you will receive the
ultimate armor. This allows unlimited nova strike, unlimited none
charged special weapons, hover in midair, and the ability to shoot
plasma bolts.
Hint:
Heart locations:
First Heart: There are some
trees that you can burn in the second stage of the Webspider stage. Go
to where the full-healing item is, just before you fight Webspider. It
is right next to a tree. Use Rising Fire (touching the tree) or Zero's
thing. It will burn down.
Second Heart: Go to the
Peacock stage. Get an "S" for the second (Zero) course, or the
first (X). Note: You can destroy the yellow balls with X's Soul Body,
and zero's Spinning Saber attack (split mushroom attacks).
Third Heart: Go to the Owl
stage, where you can get onto the machine. Make sure the first laser
beam does not destroy the platform; the third Heart is located there.
Fourth Heart: Go to the
Magma Dragoon stage, second level. There are machines there that look
like your suit. The first one is at the part where the fire balls start
to come down. Go up to the highest grounds (directly above it).
Dash-jump to the left to find a Heart there; or jump twice with Zero or
float with X to the left.
Fifth Heart: You will see
it on the Mushroom stage. You can get it, even though the drilling
things drill the thing down. Go and slide down the small wall, and
dash-jump (or jump twice), or web thing with X.
Sixth Heart: Go to the
Sting Ray stage. You will see the Heart on the bottom part of two
platforms. Do not jump.
Seventh Heart: Go to the
Slash Beast stage. Go to the part when you get in the suit. Note: You
can destroy the metal boxes and the cargo platforms with your machine.
Destroy the second platform to find the heart
Hint:
E Tank: To get one of the E Tanks, go to
the Cyber level and get the S rank. To do this, jump on the platform that
does not have an enemy.
Go to Ray's stage area 2.
Survive until you see two boxes, a space, and one box. In that space is
the other E tank.
Hint:
W Tank: Go to Snow Base area 2. Destroy all of the ice blocks until you
reach a platform that leads you left or right. Go left and destroy the ice
blocks. You will eventually find the W tank.
Hint:
Huge heart container: Go to Frost Walrus' stage and go to the end of the first part
where you are sliding on the snow that crumbles. Climb up the wall and you
should see a container that looks like a huge heart. If you are using X,
use the Web Spiders ability when you are on the wall then use your boots
to float over to the web. Then, jump onto the ledge were the heart is
located. If you are using Zero it will be more difficult. Go to the same
part of Frost Walrus' stage and climb the wall. When you are at the top,
use the Double Jump ability to make it on to the platform with the heart.
Hint:
Defeating the Bosses: Each Boss have a weakness related to their own weapons.
Hint:
Recommended order and Boss weaknesses: The following is a recommended order for the Bosses, and their
weakness (with Megaman X, followed by with Zero).
Hint:
Defeating the Bosses as Zero: The following is the best order to defeat the Bosses when
playing as Zero.
Slash Beast
Web Spider
Frost Walrus
Magma Dragoon
Cyber Peacock
Storm Owl
Split Mushroom
Jet Stringray
Hint:
Defeating the Spider Boss: When you get to the Spider Boss, dash slide away to dodge his
webs, then jump over it.
Hint:
Defeating the General: Use the twin slashers (Slash Beast weapon) to defeat him.
Hint:
Defeating the Colonel: Use the ice attack with Zero, not on top of him, but directly
next to him. It does the most damage.
Hint:
Defeating Cyber Peacock: To defeat him with Zero, use the Z-Saber Enhancement (Ryuenjin
attack) you get from defeating Magma Dragoon.
Hint:
Defeating Double: When you reach Double, use the Double Cyclone.
Hint:
Defeating Iris: When the huge diamond object comes out of her, use the fire
attack on her with Zero.
Hint:
Defeating Magma Dragoon: When you get the armor suit at area 2, get in and continue
normally. When you get to the part where you have to jump higher than the
suit allows, do not get out. Instead, go in the lava and move forward as
quickly as possible, breaking the box things in front of you. You will
begin the battle with Magma Dragoon in the suit. Attack him until the suit
explodes. By this time, his life should be low. Then, finish him off.
Hint:
Defeating Magma Dragoon and Slash Beast: As Zero, use Raijingeki, which does 2 hits on Dragoon and 1 hit
on Slash Beast.
Hint:
Defeating Sigma: The easiest way to defeat Sigma's first form (phantom) is to
use the fire attack. Note: There is a pattern to his attacks in this form.
After you hit him two times with the fire, he will attack you with a
attack unblockable or dodgeable on ground. After you hit him two times,
jump on the wall to the top of it then repeat.
The easiest way to defeat
Sigma's second form with X is the lightning web. With Zero, use the Giga
Attack. The easiest way to kill him is to avoid him using the four
miniature boomerang attacks on you. To do this, you must know his pattern.
The easiest way to defeat the
Sigma's third form with X is to use the Soul Body on the large one (with
the gun). Use the Jet Stingray attacks on the big head. To avoid the large
head's attack, go close to the wall opposite of him when he appears. He
will either suck you in or blow you to spikes. If spikes appear, dash
quickly and keep dashing. Then, change your weapon to the Jet Stingray and
get him. If he sucks you in, destroy the red head and dash up to the top
of the wall (opposite to him). When he blows the crumbled things out, he
will not hit you. Note: When the large one says "The end", jump
on the "Power Ranger" heads to the left.
The easiest way to defeat
Sigma's third form with Zero is to kill the large one with the gun, then
destroy the red head below him. Next, use the fire attack on him outside
of his range. To kill the head, do the same as X's strategy to avoid his
attacks, but use the multiple combo technique (as described in the
"Defeating Slash Beast" hint) to kill him. .
Hint:
Defeating Slash Beast: First, defeat the Stingray and use his weapon in the battle.
Shoot him once, then jump over him, turn, and fire again. Repeat this
until he goes down.
In order to kill Slash Beast
as zero, use this multiple combo technique. Rapidly press Forward
while rapidly pressing Saber at the same time. You will only do the
first two hits of Zero's full attack, but the Slash Beast is effected even
if he is flashing with the first two hits of Zero's attack. That will
lower his health quickly.
Hint:
Defeating Web Spider: As Zero, use Ryuenjin after if you have Kuuenbu jump and slash
him for an extra hit.
To make the Web Spider fall
down, use the Twin Slasher weapon on his web that is supporting him. Make
sure that both of them hits it. He will fall down and be wide open for an
attack.
Hint:
Easy helmet upgrade: Go to the Cyber Peacock stage. Get a rank "S" on the
third section. This can be done easily by using the Soul Body (Split
Mushroom's weapon) periodically. You can kill the floating eye balls.
Hint:
Flying boots, body armor, Nova Strike upgrades: If you are Dark Mega Man, get the upgrade on the Web Spider's
stage and you will get the flying boots, body armor and Nova Strike (a
very powerful blast).
Hint:
Easy lives and energy: Go to Frost Walrus/Kibatodos stage. Then, dash jump towards the
first wall on your left, then dash jump to the right one. Continue to the
right. You will see two snowmen. Use either the Lightning Web (X) or the
Double Jump (Zero) to jump higher and reach the upper-right edge. Defeat
the weak enemies here and get a lot of energy capsules. If you have not
taken damage, you should have one E-tank full at 50%. You should also get
the life near the appearing and disappearing platforms. Return four times
maximum to fill up your two E-tanks and get a good supply of lives. Note :
For really tough fights (for example, Colonel and Sigma) and you have
already used all your energy tanks, it might not be a good idea to pick up
many lives. However, do it against the eight Mavericks once you meet them
again, if you do not use tanks during the fight.
As X, go to Snow Base level
and at the area before the ice slopes, jump on the side of the wall and
use the Lightning Web. Dash in air to the web and then to higher ledge
that you cannot see from the ledge you were on. There will be several
health units and weapon units located there. Collect and leave, then
repeat as needed.
As Zero, go to the beginning
of Snow Base level. Double jump to a rock wall across from the wall behind
you. Collect the lives and leave, then repeat as needed. Note: You can
only get nine lives maximum.
Hint:
Frost Walrus stage: Easy heart: An easy way to get the heart is to shoot upwards with the Magma
Dragoon Flame Upwards ability.
Hint:
Fast shots on bike: To shoot fast shots on the bike in Jet Stingray's stage,
quickly tap Square, Triangle repeatedly. If done correctly, you
should do a double quick shot.
Hint:
X: Secret weapon with the Jet Stingray attack: As X, when you use the Jet Stingray attack, you can press Down
whenever you want to make it go down. When you press Down with the
huge stingray attack (requires the plasma shot or the other arm upgrade),
it goes across the screen while shooting smaller attacks vertically north
and south. You can also shoot large boss attacks if you have a arm upgrade
(plasma or the other one).
Hint:
Zero's power attack: After gaining the Fire attack for Zero, just attack as you
normally would except tap his slash attack two times and on the third time
use his Fire attack.
Hint:
Zero Sabre tricks:
Raijingeki combo: Waiting
for the Raijingeki to power up can be a hassle. Instead, you can press Attack,
Special Attack to fire off the Rajingeki quickly. You can also
press Attack(2), Special Attack.
Infinite slash: Press Attack,
Dash, Attack, Dash continuously in quick succession
to make Zero attack non-stop. Alternately, you can press Forward(2),
Attack continuously to do a continuos 1-2 Slash.
Hint:
Zero's combos: When you have Raijingeki, Ryuenjin, Hyouretsuzan and Shippuuga
you can use this combo. First, slash once then use Raijingeki. After that
use Shippuuga (Must Dash) then use Ryuenjin. Then, finish off with
Hyouretsuzan. Note : This combo is only slightly effective on Boss but
does lot more against an army of enemies.
After you have the
Raijingeki, slash once and as soon as the slash ends, use Raijingeki for a
very powerful combo.
Press Square(2), Raijingeki,
Shippuugu, Ryuenjin, Hyouretsuzan. Note: This is not
effective on Bosses.
Hint:
Float in mid-air: Get the fire weapon from Dragoon. Jump and repeatedly press Square
to float in mid-air. It helps you do not have the Rocket Boots.
Double cyclone is effective
in the air since it stops X short and gives him a little more time and
distance. Charge up rising fire and jump in the air. When you reach your
highest point in your jump, release the charge. You will boost up for a
double jump.
Hint:
Chill Penguin appearance: Go to Frost Walrus' stage and proceed to the mid-Boss. You will
see Chill Penguin frozen in an ice cube. Also, If you look closely in the
background, you will see that the wall was broken. This is the exact stage
in Mega Man X for Chill Penguin.
Hint:
Spark Mandrill appearance: Start Frost Walrus's stage and look closely in the background.
A big frozen Ice block frozen like Spark Mandrill.
Hint:
Buffalo appearance: Get to the halfway Boss in the Frost Walruses stage to see the
Buffalo from Megaman X3 in the background.
Hint:
Enigma appearance: Go to web spiders' area. In the background you can see the
Enigma from Megaman X5.
Glitch:
Jet Stingray never hits Zero: Make sure you have Frost Walrus' attack that is used with Down
+ S.M. To defeat Walrus, get the Ride Armor on Magma Dragoon's
level and defeat Magma Dragoon. Then, use his Upward Fire attack on
Walrus. About seven hits will kill him. Next, go to Jet Stingray and get
to the Boss. As soon as the battle starts, dash to the left wall and climb
as fast as possible. After about five seconds he will jet off and come
down through you, with no damage. As soon as you think you can hit him
(when he is on the screen beside you), use Down + S.M. and
he will freeze and fly up. He will come back down, but make sure you never
give him a chance to get into battle position.
