Mega Man Xtreme/Weapons and equipment

Damage chart
In the cells containing two numbers, the first one refers to the uncharged shot, the second one to the charged shot. A hypenation means that the Maverick is immune to the weapon; N/A means that the weapon is not available for that battle.

The "Hadouken & Shouryuken" column is larger on purpose: this way, the separation bertween the special weapons in Normal mode (to the left) and Hard mode (to the right) is more apparent.

X's upgrades


A staple of the games in the Mega Man X series is the presence of four (at least) capsules that provide upgrades for X.

When X collects all four, his sprite changes to a new form.

In Normal Mode, the four upgrades are as such:

1. Head Upgrade: it is necessary to get one or two important items; found in Storm Eagle's stage.

2. Body Upgrade: it halves the damage suffered by X; found in Flame Stag's stage.

3. Leg Upgrade: it allows to dash-jump from walls; found in Chill Penguin's stage.

4. Arm Upgrade: it allows to charge up the special weapons; found in Spark Mandrill's stage (Head part required).

In Hard Mode, the same four upgrades are located in different stages:

1. Armored Armadillo: Head Upgrade

2. Magna Centipede: Leg Upgrade (Head part required)

3. Wheel Gator: Arm Upgrade (Leg part required)

4. Morph Moth: Body Upgrade (Wheel Gator's weapon required)

Blocks to be crushed with the Head Upgrade:
 * 1) in Spark Mandrill's stage, to get the Arm Upgrade.
 * 2) in Armored Armadillo's stage, to get an Energy capsule.
 * 3) in Magna Centipede's stage, to get the Leg Upgrade/Zero Scramble.

Blocks to be crushed with the Legs Upgrade:
 * 1) in Spark Mandrill's stage, to get the Sub-Tank.

The fifth upgrade
A fifth capsule can be found in the second Computer Core stage; the upgrade allows to use the Hadouken ("Fireball Punch") and Shouryuken ("Sho-Ryu-Ken" = "Rising-Dragon-Punch") from Street Fighter II, another success by Capcom. This game spells both moves with a hyphenation, which is not the grammatically correct spelling of it.

Sub-Tanks
There are four Sub-Tanks in the game.

1. At the beginning of Storm Eagle's stage (Normal Mode);

2. At the beginning of Spark Mandrill's stage (Normal Mode);

3. In Armored Armadillo's stage (Hard Mode);

4. In Magna Centipede's stage (Hard Mode).

Zero Scramble programs
In Easy and Extreme mode you'll visit the four stages from Hard Mode, but X owns already the four Upgrades. Therefore, the same capsules give new powers: the Zero Scramble programs.


 * Errata corrige: the game says "Gaizer", but it's a mispelling for "Geyser".

Ride Armors


In two stages X can find a Ride Armor, a powerful item that allows great defense and powerful attack. Unfortunately, it has limited mobility, and X has to leave it after a portion of the stage.
