Mega Man X4/Weapons

Playing using X
Where two values are shown, the first one is the damage dealt by an uncharged shot, the second one by a fully charged shot. Exception: the Twin Slasher's third digit is the damage inflicted to Web Spider when cutting the spiderweb.

A plus (+) after the digit means that a single shot can deal damage repeatedly.

The most effective weapon against a boss is highlighted in green. Weapons obtained from the same Maverick are highlighted in red.

Playing using Zero
The table below show the damage inflicted by every Zero's weapon to the Mavericks. Green cells refer to the suggested weapon for each Maverick, red cells refer to weapons obtained from the same Maverick.
