D-Rex is the boss of Sigma Stage 3 in Mega Man X. It was supposed to be a destructive weapon with about 30 meters length based on Tyrannosaurus rex (hence the name), but by the time that Sigma's hideout was invaded by X, only the head was completed, so it was converted into a tank-like Mechaniloid to be used against him.[1] It is also the last boss of the hideout keeping X from getting into the room where Sigma is located. Due to its outstanding performance, REX-2000 was developed on the basis of D-Rex.[2][3]

Strategy[]

Mega Man X[]

D-Rex's top half can detach from the bottom, hovering in the air, and both try to crush and seriously damage X. The bottom can be stood upon, but if X stands there for too long the top will try to crush him. When either section collides with a wall, it can daze X and knock him off. Both sections can also charge up massive electron spheres and fire them. Its main weakness is the Boomerang Cutter.

MMX1 DRex BodySlam Tackle (体当たり Taiatari)[4]
D-Rex rushes to strike the player with its body. It can separate its top to attack midair, while its bottom attacks along the floor. If the player is standing on the bottom when it hits a wall, they are briefly stunned.
Damage: 6 (bottom), 10 (top)
MMX1 DRex Sandwich Sandwich (サンドイッチ Sandoitchi)[4]
If the player is standing on D-Rex's bottom half, D-Rex drops its top half in an attempt to crush them.
Damage: 10
MMX1 DRex ElectricShot Electric Shot (電撃弾 Dengeki-dan)[4]
D-Rex charges an electric sphere between its halves, then fires it. Moves horizontally, but angles vertically after the player.
Damage: 8
