Attack pattern[]
Tank CSII first enters the boss room from the right side and will always be moving left. It is similar to the Gorilla Tanks from Plant Man's Stage in that it tries to corner Mega Man and eventually stops moving once Mega Man is completely cornered, though it can also be shot to push it back slightly. However, every time Mega Man presses the shoot button, Tank CSII fires a shot from the top of its "head" in an arcing trajectory, loosely aimed at Mega Man's position (if he is actually within range). Tank CSII can also attack within 3-second intervals by firing a cannonball forward from its main turret, which is also the boss's weak point. This cannonball flies forward at a slow speed and is affected by gravity, also exploding upon touching the ground. However, the cannonball can be destroyed as well. It is best to keep Tank CSII as far away from Mega Man as possible so he doesn't have to worry about dodging the arc shots.
Weakness[]
Tank CSII's main weakness is Wind Storm, which defeats it in 7 hits. Although the trajectory requires Mega Man to fight the boss up close, the weapon can still push Tank CSII away and even carry away the cannonballs. Tank CSII is also weak to Power Adaptor, and a fully-charged punch does 4 damage. As with all bosses, Tank CSII takes takes 3 damage from a fully-charged buster shot.
Other media[]
Tank CSII appeared in the Rockman 6 manga and has a cameo appearance in Mega Man Megamix.
