Blade Armor

The Blade Armor is an armor focused on manuverability and using the Z-Saber. The most significant feature is an upgraded air-dash. If the jump or dash buttons are pressed while X is airborne, X will freeze mid-air until you release the button. After this, he will perform a quick air dash that covers a lot of distance. You can air-dash vertically or horizontally, a feature from Mega Man X3, and you can also air-dash down.

This armor's charged shot can differ. Normally firing the blast will produce a wispy projectile similar to the Plasma Shot of the Force Armor, but if &uarr; is held, X will attack with an upgraded Z-Saber slash. The Blade Armor's Giga Attack is a very large slash. If executed in the air, energy will materialize and be fired off of the slash.
