Mega Man/Elec Man

Elec Man's stage takes place in an extremely tall tower that Mega Man must climb high into the sky. Electricity pours throughout the tower, and radiates outward in some very unfortunate locations in an effort to keep intruders away. Elec Man was designed to oversee and control atomic energy power plants. At the time of his creation, Elec Man was often hailed as Dr. Light's greatest creation and boasts superhuman calculation speed and razor-sharp judgment, as well as a physical agility that wouldn't be matched for some time. He's very conceited and egotistical, but's otherwise very responsible and competent. He can generate 500,000 volts of electricity through either arm.

Stage
Note you begin at the bottom of this stage, and must climb up to the top. The lowest portion of the stage where you begin is presented on the left. The next portion of the climb is presented on the right, and the remainder of the stage is shown below.

Elec Man
Elec Man's conceitedness is understandable. He is one of the fastest robots around, and his attack is extremely lethal to robots and humans alike. In order to defeat him, you're going to have to be just as fast and be prepared for sudden attacks. Elec Man will jump around the room and fire bursts of electricity at you. Unlike the electricity beams, his attacks move quite wildly through the air, making them a rather large target to avoid. Unlike Cut Man, where standing on the blocks in the room put you at a disadvantage, standing on the blocks in Elec Man's room can actually come in handy. You are more likely to hit Elec Man since he likes to jump around, and the added height can help you safely leap over the electric attacks that he throws at you. Of course, nothing is better than coming prepared with the proper weapon to which Elec Man is weakest. He is one of the most difficult bosses to beat with the ordinary Mega Buster, although it is possible to exploit his programming on the NES version. If you only have the Mega Buster, attempt to shoot him as soon as he raises his arms to attack you. If you time it correctly, Elec Man will be knocked backwards. Then he'll recover and raise his arms again. Fire your weapon once and only once to trap him in this cycle until he is defeated. If you do manage to beat him, you will get his powerful Thunder Beam ability.
