X's ULTIMATE ARMOR AND CONSERNING SUPER WEAPONS ENERGY: ------------------------------------------------------- SUBMITTED BY: ANKIT PRASAD E-MAIL: ankitprasad1988@rediffmail.com Usually to get the ultimate armor you have to visit all the armor capsules in different stages and get the ultimate armor piece by piece, but the following tells how to get the full armor by finding only one armor capsule & also the energy of your super weapons (the weapons you get after defeating level bosses)will not decrease, unless you charge the super weapon. At the character select screen hold DOWN while selecting X. You will notice when the game starts, parts of megaman is purple. Now visit any armor capsule and instead of getting a part of the ultimate armor you will get the full armor. You will also then notice that the energy of your super weapons (the weapons you get after defeating level bosses)will not decrease, unless you charge the super weapon. Now, you ask where are the armor capsules. There are many but you'll only need one after applying the above cheat. The easiest to find is the one in the Web Spider's Stage. In the place where the big waterfall appears behind you there is an area to the extrme right where there is an armor capsule. Just explore in the area, you'll find it. NOTE: Armor capsules only appear for X and not Zero.) Get Ultimate Armour for X: -------------------------- At the character select screen hold down (UP) key and press ENTER (While selecting X) then go to Web Spider's stage and go to where the leg Armour is usually placed. You will get the Ultimate Armour instead. This gives you all armour modifications with a cool new graphic and the secret body crash attack which will kill just about anything.

Note: This migt not work with jetstignray (the motor cicle dude) inthet case use the ice weapon and it will even easier. Locations of Armor Capsules: ------------------------------ The Boots upgrade is located in Web Spider's stage, in a small cave at the waterfall section right at the beginning of the stage. The Boots allow X to air dash, as well as hover (press the jump button twice to hover). The Helmet upgrade is in Cyber Peacock's stage. In the third section of the first half of the stage, get an "S" rank to find it. The Helmet allows X to use his special weapons without consuming energy. However, he'll use up energy any if he charges any special weapon. The X-Buster upgrades (yes, there are two) are located in Storm Owl's stage. In the second half of the stage, you come to a large area lined with spikes, with a hole in the ceiling. Find a wall facing to the right that's lined with spikes, shoot a Lightning Web at it, and then jump onto the web and then jump up, taking care not to hit the spikes. When you climb up and find the capsules, one of them gives X the Charge Shot option, which allows X to store and then shoot off 4 charged shots. The second one gives X the Plasma Shot option (as well as really funky black and red arms), which allows X to shoot a huge charged shot that'll leave behind a residual plasma ball that continues to damage enemies. The Body upgrade is located in Magma Dragoon's stage, behind a large rock wall above the boss room. To get to it, you need to have one of the X-Buster upgrades, and Twin Slasher (Slash Beast's weapon). Charge up Twin Slasher and shoot it at the wall to destroy it. The Body allows X to take less damage and convert what he takes into energy. When X builds up enough energy, he can execute the power Nova Strike attack, which will decimate any enemy in its path. Heart Tank locations: --------------------- In the second half of Web Spider's stage, burn the damaged trees with Rising Fire. One of them has a Heart Tank in it. In Cyber Peacock's stage, get an "S" rank in the first section of the trials run (the first half of the stage). A Heart Tank is your reward. In Storm Owl's stage, a Heart Tank is sitting on a platform that gets destroyed by a giant laser. Dash to it using the Ride Armor you can climb into earlier in the stage. If it falls, you can just go off the screen, turn around, and try again. In Magma Dragoon's stage, there's a Heart Tank in the second half of the stage, after the long diagonal climb. Dash to the left to find it when you reach the top of the hill. In Jet Stingray's stage, a Heart Tank is in the first half of the stage, on a lower ledge. You'll have to time this one carefully to get it. In Split Mushroom's stage, a Heart Tank is in the second half of the stage, at the section where the drills destroy the floors and ceilings. Let the first section of floor and ceiling come down a bit, then jump onto it and up to the Heart Tank. In the second half of Slash Beast's stage, you'll find a Heart Tank sitting on top of one of the train cars, in plain sight. In the first half of Frost Walrus's stage, you can find a Heart Tank right at the beginning of the stage, on top of a block of ice. Melt the ice with Rising Fire to claim the Heart Tank. Sub-Tank Locations: ------------------- In Cyber Peacock's stage, get an "S" rank in the second trial run as X, or an "S" rank in the third trial run as Zero. You'll get an E-Tank for your troubles. In Jet Stringray's stage, look for an E-Tank on a ledge surrounded by crates. You'll have to jump up and break through the crates with a dash to get it. In Frost Walrus's stage, you can find both a W-Tank and a hidden EX Tank. The W-Tank is used to refill all of your weapon energy, while the EX Tank lets you continue your game with 5 lives instead of 3. The W-Tank is in the second half of the stage, encased in an ice block (don't worry, you'll see the W-Tank easily). The EX Tank is much harder to get to. It's in a hidden corner of the stage, on a high ledge. To get to it, climb up the wall after the first spiked slope descent. X will have to use both Lightning Web and an air dash to reach the tank, while Zero can just double jump to it. Spark Mandrill appearance: -------------------------- Start Frost Walrus's stage and look closely in the background. A big frozen Ice block frozen like Spark Mandrill. Sigma appearance: ----------------- In Storm Owl's stage, you can see Sigma's face appear in the middle of the city in the background.
