Mega Man X4/Walkthrough
From StrategyWiki, the video game walkthrough and strategy guide wiki
Playing using X
Starting from Magma Dragoon's stage can be advantageous because it's the only Maverick whose boss area X can access with a Ride Armor.
Maverick | Items | Re-visit |
---|---|---|
Magma Dragoon | Heart | Armor Upgrade (need Arm Upgrade & S. Lion's weapon) |
Frost Walrus | Heart, W-tank, EX-Tank (need M. Dragon's weapon) | - |
Jet Stingray | Heart, Sub-Tank | - |
Slash BeastLeo | Heart | - |
Web Spider | Heart, Leg Upgrade (need M. Dragon's weapon) | - |
Split Mushroom | Heart | - |
Cyber Peacock | Heart, Sub-Tank, Head Upgrade | - |
Storm Owl | Heart, 2 Arm Upgrades (need W. Spider's weap.) | - |
Playing using Zero
Two of Zero's "weapons" actually are skills that deal no damage, therefore the Maverick order has to be different.
The regular Z-saber deals slightly more damage to Web Spider than to most other Mavericks, while Slash BeastLeo is probably the hardest boss.
Maverick | Weakness | Items & Stage requirements |
---|---|---|
Web Spider | S. Lion's weapon | Heart (need M. Dragon's weapon) |
Magma Dragoon | W. Spider's weapon | Heart |
Split Mushroom | W. Spider's weapon | Heart |
Frost Walrus | S. Mushroom's weapon | Heart, W-tank, EX-Tank (need M. Dragon's weapon) |
Jet Stingray | F. Walrus' weapon | Heart, Sub-Tank |
Cyber Peacock | M. Dragon's weapon | Heart, Sub-Tank (need J. Stingray's skill) |
Storm Owl | C. Peacock's weapon | Heart |
Slash BeastLeo | W. Spider's weapon | Heart |
