The X-Hunters are special bosses that appear after the player beats two Mavericks. They will each teleport to a different stage. Within each stage will be a special room that will only open if one of the X-Hunters is there, and the player must go to if he/she wishes to fight an X-Hunter in that stage. When the player beats one of the X-Hunters, Mega Man X will receive one of Zero's pieces.

Be warned, however: if the player waits too long to fight the X-Hunters, they will leave and never return, making that piece of Zero unobtainable for the rest of the game. The order in which the X-Hunters flees are as follows:

Sagesse is weak against O. Ostrich's Sonic Slicer, but during the '''first fight''' the normal X-Buster can be easier to use. This is because the X-Hunter's barrier rises when you press the Shoot button to charge up, but not when you release it to actually shoot. Fighting with the Sonic Slicer, you should shoot it at the wall, so that it hits the target after the barrier went up and down. The Legs Upgrade mid-air dash is an asset in this battle.

If you use the '''Silk Shot''' in Crystal Snail's stage, the weapon will change shape and it will be super-effective, inflicting Sagesse 3 damage uncharged or 5 damage charged. Mega Man X has to be very close to the X-Hunter, though, so that the large crystal shot is already inside the enemy's barrier.

Sagesse has Zero's part no.1, that is the head. This is appropriate, because the name ''Sagesse'' (unfortunately localized as ''Serges'') is French for ''wisdom''.
