Bomb Man's stage occurs in a futuristic city with spherical structures on the skyline. The area includes enemies such as Sniper Joes, and spikes line some of the floors. Bomb Man was designed for land reclamation work. He and Guts Man were originally intended to work as a pair, with Guts Man functioning as a foreman. He can make various forms of explosives, all of which are deadly. Bombman is able to leap around the room and toss bombs at Mega Man that explode on impact. | Bomb Man's stage occurs in a futuristic city with spherical structures on the skyline.

* '''B''': You will come up to a series of shafts, out of which will fly Bombombombs. They are indestructible so don't bother shooting at them. Stand very close to the highest step, and you will be safe from the four bits of shrapnel that they expel. Then quickly jump up and over the gaps before the Bombombomb behind you detonates. | * '''B''': You will come up to a series of shafts, out of which will fly Bombombombs.

Just beyond the Screw Drivers are a large weapon capsule, and two small health capsules.

* '''D''': You'll see a large health capsule in on alcove on the other side of the wall. If you want to collect it, it's advised that you shoot through the wall and destroy the four Blasters from the bottom to the top, and then climb down.

* '''E''': The first Sniper Joe is waiting to ambush you here. He will jump out in front of you. He is only vulnerable to attack when he is shooting at you or when he is hopping up and down. He has a tendency to hold still if you stand there and fire at him, so move or jump around until he lets his guard down, then let him have it. | * '''E''': The first Sniper Joe is waiting to ambush you here.

The Blasters wait on the left side of the pillars, and are easy to anticipate. The Killer Bombs, however, fly in a wave pattern and will appear non-stop. When one is destroyed, it detonates in a large explosion that can hurt Mega Man if he is caught in it. Likewise, he is vulnerable to falling through the gap and dying if he gets hit in mid-air. Remove the Killer Bombs carefully and time your jump over the gaps when it's safe. | ||
* '''G''': As the Killer Bombs continue to appear, the platforms in this area are patrolled by Gabyoalls. They are vulnerable to the Rolling Cutter weapon, but if you don't have that yet, you'll have to simply leap over them when they rush towards you.

* '''H''': A single Killer Bomb will continuously float across the screen here. While it may be tempting to shoot at it, it reappears on the right, and is likely to collide with you while you climb up the ladder. It's best to leave it alone while you make your way up and over to the ladder on the left. | * '''H''': A single Killer Bomb will continuously float across the screen here.

* '''I''': Normally a single Mambu (the flying cousins of Metalls) wouldn't represent too much of a threat. But when one appears near a series of small platforms over a bed of spikes, you need to take their presence seriously. Mambu is only vulnerable to destruction when its shell is open and its eyes are exposed. Unfortunately, that's the same time it shoots bullets in eight directions. Wait until it is safe to proceed, and make sure you have solid footing on any platform just before the Mambu stops and fires. | * '''I''': Normally a single Mambu (the flying cousins of Metalls) wouldn't represent too much of a threat.

As soon as the fight gets going, Bomb Man is likely to leap into the air and jump to another part of the room. He won't necessarily attempt to jump ''on'' you, but he is very likely to jump near your vicinity. When he lands, he will begin to chuck bombs at you. He tosses them in an arc, and they explode on contact with the floor. Even the explosion is dangerous, so you must run a safe distance away from the bombs in order to avoid taking damage. After tossing some bombs, he starts jumping towards you again.

After tossing some bombs, he starts jumping towards you again. When Bomb Man is leaping through the air, or when you're not trying to escape bomb explosions, you should turn around and fire a few shots at him. When you defeat him, you will earn the '''''Hyper Bomb''''' weapon, which allows you to toss bombs of your own. | ||

{{spoiler|title=Bomb Man's weakness|content=Like the wick of a bomb, Bomb Man is very vulnerable to fire attacks. It sets off the gunpowder that he uses in the construction of his own bombs. If you have the Fire Storm weapon from Fire Man, use it against him to incinerate him faster. You can even take advantage of the small field of fire that forms around you every time you use the weapon to hurt Bomb Man if he's standing close enough to you.}} | {{spoiler|title=Bomb Man's weakness|content=Like the wick of a bomb, Bomb Man is very vulnerable to fire attacks.
