Cheats/Tips/Walkthrough

Megaman X Items: Heart Tank: Increases your Energy Meter! There are 8 in the entire game (1 in each stage.) Sub Tank: When low on energy, you can use it to fill it back up! When you use it, it's waisted, therfore you must charge it back up using normal power ups. There are 4 in the entire game. Armor Parts: There are 4 armor parts in the entire game. .The Boots make you dash . The Armor makes you take less damage . The Helmet can make you break things. . The Buster makes you charge up weapons that you earned from beating bosses, and can charge your normal buster. Havoc Highway: Some enemies that you encounter create holes in the ground which you could fall into, be careful. Some robots, (such as the one standing on two legs; blue in colour) takes quite a lot of shots to take it down. You could blaze with your energy pellets, or dodge the enemy attacks and charage up your X buster to full blast. Anyway be careful, you can't dash yet, so jump from wide spaces carefully. Near the end of the highway, (where robots are riding on cars) you will run into Vile, who jumps out of an enormous aircraft (where the enemies came from.) Don't try to beat him, its IMPOSSIBLE, but don't worry, some games are meant to be like that...right before your demise, your best pal Zero will come and stop Vile (but not kill him.) After, you will have to destroy eight mavericks, at different places. You, as a Maverick hunter, must destoy them, and Zero will look for Sigma's hidden base. Chill Penguin: A cute little Maverick...but don't let that prevent you from destroying him! His stage is all filled with snow. In the start, enemies begin to attack. Blast your way through, destroying different kinds of robots as you go by, and once your inside, you may find out that spike-rolling robots keep coming. Well jump over them, or destroy them. Climb up the sides. Once you done there, you CAN'T MISS...CAN'T MISS (Just try, go ahead try to miss it) the boot upgrade, which alows you to dash. (Everytime you get an upgrade, it will automatically demonstrate what it does) Continue through the stage, using your new ability tto dash and then jump to leap over big gaps. You will soon run into powerful robots. They are similar to Vile, but not nearly THAT powerful. Find an abandoned machine carrier, to crush powerful enemies. You won't be in it long, because it can't climb walls, so say goodbye to it and jump out and climb the wall blocking your way. Later on in the game, when your more powerful, you can jump far above the screen and break open the little dome (using the power that you gain from Flame Mammoth) to reveal a HEART TANK. Now continue on, but look out for the robots that throw snowballs when there is a hill. When you see these robots, your not far from Chill Penguin, he's straight ahead. BATTLE: If you have Flame Mammoth's weapon, use it to burn him. But you can still beat him quite easily if you just use your buster. He has a few attacks. One is he'll simply spit ice balls at you, which can be avoided by staying on a wall. He will also create ice statues of himself (what a guy) and then he will jump up high and pull down the lever, which causes a blizzard to storm down, blowing the sculptures at you. He may also use the sculptures as protection, but you can still break them. His common attack is sliding quickly to you, which can be avoided by jumping. Be careful, is attacks can freeze you, which gives him a easy hit to charge at you. Just charge your buster, or shoot rapidly when he stands still. You will then get his weapon once he's defeated, Shotgun Ice. Spark Mandrill: When you enter Spark Mandrill's stage, lights will go on and off from time to time, and electric sparks will flow through the floors of the room. Also watch out for those Blue Machines, they're pretty hard to take out. You may also see a sub-tank, covered by walls, don't worry about this, remember this, and come back later when you have beaten Boomer Kuanger; you can use his weapon to catch it through the walls, that trick will come in handy. When you see a ladder going down, climb on the wall next to it. Then, jump dash from the wall, and try to reach the ledge above you. There's also a mini-boss in this level. A big blob. Keep attacking it, and climb on the walls, because he will bounce up and down, he will also shoot out little blobs, nothing to worry about. BATTLE: This guy is a joke with Chill Penguin's attack (Shotgun Ice) learned. Simply shoot him with it, and he'll freeze, he'll break out and perhaps use a shock attack once in awhile that moves along the ground, and wall. Simply jump over it and shoot him again. One thing also good about this frost weapon, if you miss your target, and it hits a nearby wall, the attack will multiply. You will get Electric Spark from him once he's dead. Armored Armadillo: This stage is cool! You get to ride on a cart for a bit of the time, and any enemies in front of it will explode! The enemies arn't to hard, simple mine-like enemies, wheels with spikes, bats etc. Almost like a mini boss in this stage, a machine will come riding with his hands filled with spikes moving up and down. Be careful, you will die if you touch his spikes. You meet him twice in the stage...the first time, wait for him to pass, and get the Sub-Tank he left in his little lair. Go after the spike tank, and hurry! There is a ledge that you can climb that will lead to a Heart Tank! But one problem, he will break it if he gets there first. So try to kill the Spike Tank like crazy with your buster, or if you have it use the Tornado attack to rip right through him. The second time you meet him, either destroy him from the beginning or wait for him to pass, or even run for your life and stay in front of him! If you don't kill him at all, he will eventually fall into some spikes. Keep going through the stage, killing bats so they won't follow you and angry mine robots will try to hurt you while your on a cart, but hopefully you'll just nicely run them over. The last cart however will lead you to a big gap, so be sure to jump when you almost hit the ground. If you don't jump off, you will die. BATTLE: Using the Electric Spark you got from Spark Mandrill, this battle is a snap. Why? Well the first or second shot that hits Armored Armadillo will cause his Armor to come off, I guess now he's just an Armadillo. Anyway, he will still shoot this projectiles at you, simply jump over them and still use your Electric Spark! You will get the Rolling shield when you win. Launch Octopus: Did you think Megaman would rust in water? Well he doesn't, so go ahead Mega, go swimming. This stage is a bit hard, new water based enemies, and I suppose two mini-bosses. One of the mini-bosses is a large robot fish. Keep attacking him, and he will use high-tech weapons on you. What I really hate is when he tries to blow you into the spikes. Just try to go along with the change of wind. You will fight him twice. The second mini-boss. Well if you want to fight him for a Heart Tank (optional mini-boss then...) When you reach the area with cyclones coming out of the water, use one to getto the top, and jump on to the ship. Use Storm Tornado to destroy the ship,and stay on it until you reach the bottom. Defeat the serpent, and go to the far right of the room to get the heart. You will then fight him once again later on. He's not that hard, except you can only hit him in the front, his face or the very top of that head. You can also jump on his back. BATTLE: I found this a bit weird...Octo has two weaknesses. If you have Boomer Kuanger's weapon, the Boomer Cutter, use iton him about 3-5 times. His testacles...I mean tentacles will fall off! Now all he can do is shoot at you. Take out the Rolling Shield that you got from Armored Armadillo and continuasly blast him. You may even have to use your buster on this dude. He really isn't that hard though. You get the Homing Tornado when you win. Boomer Kuanger: Boomer Kuanger is easy with the Homing Tornado, but would be really difficult without it. His stage is hard though. His stage is a huge tower, with enemies everywhere, and Boomer Kuanger waits all the way at the top. You will see the Heart Tank when the stage is almost done. There are two ways to get this, either go inside the tower and charge up your shotgun ice and ride it through and jump off to the left to get it, or come back to the stage when you have the Boomer Cutter to catch the Heart Tank. Once your inside, there will be moving plat forms withe enemies ontop of them. Destroy the enemies, and jump on. When you reach the top, Boomer Kuanger awaits you. BATTLE: Take out your Homing Tornado, your going to need it. Simply climb up to the wall to the left, and whenever you see him use your missles, and it will follow him. The battle will be done in no time at all. You get the Boomer Cutter! Now you should go back to Spark Mandrill's level and get that Sub-Tank! Sting Chameleon: A forest like stage, destroy enemies like you usually would. Before you enter a cave, fall in the gap before it. Don't FALL in, but stick on the walls. If you have the helmet armor, you can use the headbutt to break the blocks and get the Heart Tank. Get out of there by climbing up the gap. Once again don't enter the cave yet, climb up the wall to the left, and do a dash jump on the wall over the cave. Climb up a bit, and blocks will come down, blocking your way back. You must fight now a mini-boss. He has a mace, so stay away from him. When smoke starts spouting out of him, you know he's almost dead. When you kill him, you will get an armor piece, the armor! Decreasing half the damage you take! Continue on (finnaly!) through the cave. be careful of the new rock enemies, they will just fall from the ceiling and throw rocks at you. Try to get out of the cave quickly, because blocks are falling from the ceiling. Once your out of the cave continue on and destroy the wood like enemies. You will then see a Machine you can jump into. Jump in and destroy the other enemy who is also in a machine. Your done! BATTLE: Sting Chameleon is a bit tricky, since he disappears and comes back at an unexcpecting place, and will fire an attack that's a little bit hard to dodge. Use your Boomer Cutter on him quickly when he appears. You should master the technique of the Boomer Cutter, in which direction it flies. He will also use a "rain" like attack. He will get his tounge, stick to the ceiling and start swinging a bit, causing things to fall. He will use his tounge to attack you also. You get a pretty good prize in return, the Chameleon Sting. Storm Eagle: I hope you mastered jumping/dash jumping, because your going to need it for this stage! The Heart Tank is not far. Go to the platforms, and go all the way to the top. Once there, do a jump dash and hopefully you'll reach the Heart Tank. Destroy all flying enemies, if they hit you, you could get knocked off, which can get really annoying! When you come to a large grey, moving pillar, jump dash from it to the right. If you reach the platform, you'll reach the Armor Head Upgrade! Which allows you to use a headbutt! When you reach platforms with fire throwing robots on them, jump on the first platform, get a ride to the top, and dash jump, you will reach a sub-tank accompanied by a Blue Machine. Feel free now to go along with the stage. BATTLE: Storm Eagle is easy if you have the Chameleon Sting. Avoid his tornado attack, it won't hurt, but it could knock you off the platform. He will also use a classic, he'll fly in the air and dash down really fast, aiming for you. Dodge him and hit him quickly with the Chameleon Sting. He has some other attacks, but nothing to worry about. Flame Mammoth: Easy stage, if you defeated Chill Penguin. Instead of Lava Flowing, nothing will Flow at all! When you get to that point, go under the platforms and get the Heart Tank. From there, go all the way to the top, (avoiding the weapons mine robots are trying to throw at you) once there, go all the way left. Now use a combination of Leg and Head upgrades to break the blocks to get the Sub-Tank. The Armor? Yes there is the Buster Upgrade here. When you reach the area with everything else useful in this game, climb on to the yellowish-gray platform. Dash jump from there, and land on the blocks. Climb on the wall until a block breaks. If you fall, and you destroy the first block, you have to start over. Once you get past the first two rows, you will make it up to the top. This not only allows you to get an extra powerful charge on your X-Buster, but you can now charge Master Weapons! Continue through the stage. BATTLE: Easy boss, with the Storm Tornado you got from Storm Eagle. You have a large area to fight Flame Mammoth, as well as a moving escalate floor. Now you can charge your weapons! Get out the Storm Tornado and let him have it. Go all the way to the side and climb up the wall. Stay there, and while your waiting for him to jump to you, charge your Storm Tornado. When he comes, let go and let him have it! Repeat this, and you'll have the Flamethrower in no time! Sigma's Fortress: After you have beat the 8 mavericks, Zero will contact you saying he has found the hidden base! Good! You should have everything now, all 8 Weapons, 8 Heart Tanks, 4 Sub-Tanks, 4 Armor Upgrades etc! Go get the Hadouken (see Cheats and Codes) if you really want to easily destroy up coming bosses! Sigma's Fortress 1: Be careful with those large parachute launching enemies, they take awhile to kill! Air-bourne robots will also try to attack you. Soon enough, you'll reach some moving platforms. Carefully time your jumps, and try not to worry about those high flying enemies, even if they hit you, you shouldn't fall off. When you reach the top, there's a lot of enemies. Destroy them, and kill that tough Blue Machine. Climb the ladder and easily destroy those walking heads. Zero and Vile will soon duke it out. But when you enter, it's Zero who's trapped in a cage! Loose against the machine Vile, he will eventually trap you too. Zero will jump on Vile and explode! Zero's dead...now take your revenge on Vile (who doesn't have his armor carrier) by using your homing missles. Try not to waste to much of them, you will need them for fighting Boomer Kuanger who's coming up soon. When you kill Vile, Zero will give you his Buster. Go on now, and destroy your enemies with the newly charged buster. When you climb the ladder, get ready to charge your Chameleon Sting, because a lot of enemies will try to attack you on the way up. Enter the door at the top to face Boomer Kuanger. Hopefully you didn't use up most of your Homing Missles on Vile, because you'll need it here. He's the same as he was before, as well as the other bosses. After he's done, beat the enemies ahead, and face the Boss. BATTLE: Take out your Shotgun Ice, it does well here. He slides down and either tries to hit you, or send baby spiders. When he's down, he'll open his eye, therefore you hit him then. Sigma's Fortess 2: After you cross the moving platforms, you will soon face Chill Penguin. Now that you have Flame Mammoth's weapon, you can burn Chill Penguin! Shorty after Chill Penguin, you will face Storm Eagle, simply use Sting Chameleon's weapon to hurt him, and when he begins to fly, you can even charge it up and make yourself invisible for a short time. After, you will meet the boss. You must destroy it seperatly, it's 2 eyes and the nose. When facing the eyes, make sure to either charge, or keep hitting them with your buster. They will shoot pellets at you depending on which colour of the eye. Dodge them and continue hitting them. From time to time, the walls will close in, and you will have to stick on the wall and hit the nose which will try to hit you in a zig-zag patturn. Sigma's Fortress 3: At the start, you have to fight Armored Armadillo and following Sting Chameleon. Use the same tactics as before. Then, Spark Mandrill, Launch Octopus, and Flame Mammoth. Between them, you may have a chance to grab energies. The Boss of the stage will seperate it's body and head, and will try to hit you, crush you and do anything it takes to kill you. His weakeness is the Boomer Cutter, and keep throwing it at his head. When he goes to the right of the screen and begins charging something, climb all the way to the left wall and stay there, he will miss. He will throw those huge orbs either once, or many times, and he will try to charge at you, so be careful. When you beat him though...you reach the final stage. Sigma's Fortress 4: This is it. If you are low on sub-tanks, weapons or anything like that, charge your armored armadillo weapon to create a shield around you. Now, climb up and keep bumping into the little caterpillers that crawl out of the holes. They will drop energies, and sometimes a free life. Once everything is full, climb way to the top, and Sigma will make a speech. You must fight his dog! Velguader isn't that hard, and it seems to be weak against some weapons. When you kill Sigma's dog, he doesn't really seem to care. Now you must fight Sigma himself. Sit down and relax, because this is a long battle. Not even the Hadouken upgrade will do damage on him, he will just block it. You should ALWAYS stick on the wall, because Sigma will move across the walls in a zig-zag patturn. Simply slide down and charge your X buster to the fullest and let him have it...the only problem is that it only takes off 1/32 of his life bar. I told you this would take awhile. Never be on the ground for more than a second, or he will either shoot pellets from his forehead, or try to use his sabre to attack you, which will take off one quarter of your life bar! You will need all the life you can get for the next battle. Once Sigma is beaten, his head will fly into a machine that looks like Velguader. This is Velguader Sigma...he is very hard. Make sure to stay off the ground, it is too risky for two of his attacks. One is that he will shoot a huge fire beam on the ground, and another is giant flying orbs. The only way to avoid these deadly attacks is to stay on his claws, which will occasionaly send lightening on the claws, but if you stay on the side of the claw, nothing will hurt you except when Sigma beings his other claw towards yours. The claw will sometimes lift right up to Sigma's head, this is your chance to send a huge X Buster attack at him. Keep doing this and you will win.
