User:Kaihedgie/Mega Man ZX Walkthrough

Alrighty, Kaihedgie her, gonna walk ya through Mega Man ZX. This is particular for those finding it hard to get around this game, so sit tight and enjoy the walkthrough

Playable characters
Alrighty, just like in Mega Man X, you have the option of choosing one of two characters, Vent and Aile. However, just like Mega Man X4, you're stuck with the choice. Vent is somewhat on the balanced side, but he moves a little slow. Aile on the other hand is faster, but she suffers from stronger knockback

Intro
Alright, first stage in the game; Area A. You've just Megamerged with Model X, taking on the mantle of the new Mega Man, known as Mega Man Model X. Don't worry, you're well-equipped, so let's get started. Your X-Buster has Double Fully Charged Shots, so this should be a breeze. This mission is pretty easy, so there's not much to say. Eventually, you'll reach the boss of this stage; a snake Mechnaloid. It attacks by spewing spheres of acid. The projectiles come out fairly slow. Sometimes it'll either lunge at your or slam its tail end on the ground, spitting up rocks from the ground. When either attack is performed, it'll slither back onscreen whilst on the ground, leaving its head wide open. Either jump or dash right under the attack to avoid it and use the X Buster to counter the rocks. Its weak point is the head, so keep your X Buster charged up and assault it with Double Charged Shots while you can. Eventually the beast will fall. Follow through to the door where you'll meet up with Flueve and the other Guardians. After the cutscene, stand on the Transever to refill your health and save

Finding Giro
Mission: Locate Giro - The transporter Giro appears to have met Maverick aggression in Area B. Go to Area B and find out his whereabouts.

Alright, time to find blond Obi-Wan. Follow the door to the right out of the room and scale upwards the slopes. Watch out for the giraffe Mechnaloids. They can't be ridden of, only disabled. Use the charged shots and aim for the head. That should take them out altogether. Go to the door at the top and enter, where the mission starts

As you blast your way through the Mavericks, you'll find a computer chip along the way. You'll need to collect three more of these to continue. Be sure to keep your X Buster charged while you navigate your way. Watch out for the razor blade rotating machines littered throughout the stage. They can become quite a nuisance if not handled from a distance as they drop on you as you approach their vicinity. If you do not want to confront them, change back to human form and they'll let you pass by. All you need to do is gather the chips and continue to advance forward. Eventually you'll meet up with another boss, this time, it's airborne

Boss: King Flyer

The boss is constantly airborne and out of your buster's range. It'll fly around for several seconds before dropping a segmented pillar. One of the segments has a red spot while the others fire bouncing projectiles. Aim for that spot with a charged shot and make sure the boss is above it when struck. The pillar will rocket upwards and damage the boss. You only need to repeat this process four more times and it'll be down for the count. Before you can react, a blond-haired red-armored figure clad in red armor jumps out of nowhere and decimates the flying mechnaloid with an aerial Ganhaza attack. In a bright flash, the armor disappears, revealing Giro to be your savior. After the cutscene, head back to the left until you spot a ladder. Climb down it and enter the door. A transsever will be there for you to send your Mission Report. Send it and you're done. Your reward is 200 EC

Pass the Test
Mission: There's a trial you need to pass in order to obtain permission to enter Guardian HQ. There are Guardians hiding among the inhabitants in Area C. Locate them and bring back proof that you passed the trial.
