Mega Man 2/Quick Man: Difference between revisions

'''Description:''' Quick Man's stage is one of the most challenging levels in the game. Why? Well, there are lasers in the stage that can kill you in one hit. His stage is set in an industrial base; it's pretty short but can present a problem to some. If you don't want to deal with the lasers, you can just use the Time Stopper (which freezes time). The stage doesn't feature any pits but it features the Sniper Armor enemy from Flash Man's level. Besides the lasers, Quick Man's stage is rather easy.

Now comes the real challenge. You have two choices: you can use the Time Stopper to avoid all of the lasers or you just keep dodging them as best you can. If you use the Time Stopper, you may not have enough energy to use it on Quick Man, as it is his weakness. When you use the Time Stopper, all you have to do is just keep dropping into the next areas as fast as possible, picking up any weapon energy for the Time Stopper along the way. If you decided to go the hard way, here's the passage you should memorize once you go inside the room: jump on the middle platform and quickly drop down into the next room. Keep going to the right and jump down immediately into the next area. Walk to the left as fast as you can and go into the next room. Just keep going to the right and then walk to left immediately; hug the left side as you drop down and you'll dodge these lasers easily. Now drop down to the right, then left, and finally hug the right side wall as you drop down. As soon as you land however, a Sniper Armor greets you, so dispose of him quickly. Keep going to the right and destroy the next Sniper Armor (you can keep walking off-screen and killing the new Sniper Armor that will take the old one's place to get some weapon energy for the Time Stopper). After you do, enter the nearby chamber to encounter Quick Man!

'''Strategy:''' Quick Man will rapidly move around the room, throwing boomerangs and trying to crash into you. If you have some energy for the Time Stopper, just shoot it and it will take a considerable amount of Quick Man's health away for you (half of his health if you have full energy). After it depletes, it is advised you either use the Air Shooter or Mega Buster to finish Quick Man off (the Crash Bombs are too slow for him). He will occasionally walk around the room after jumping or firing boomerangs, so use this time to fire at him. When he's destroyed, you'll get his weapon: the Quick Boomerang!
