MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
Discuss tricks, cheats, how to beat bosses, how to get heart tanks, and other things in the game. Also, specify which game. (MegaManX or MegaMan Maverick Hunter X, or both)
Maverick Hunter X:
Unlockables:
Leg Upgrade: Go to Flame Mammoth's stage, and wait until your at the part when you catwalk with the lava. You will see 2 walls. Wall jump the wall on the left, and grab the upgrade. Use O or double tap the control pad.
Arm Upgrade: Go to Sting Chameleon's stage, and keep going through the level until you get to the cave. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE LEG PARTS! (dash boots) Now, go to the tip of the ledge and dash, then jump to get to a wall. Now keep wall jumping until you get to the top. Now, a robot will appear. Pull out your Fire Wave buster from Flame Mammoth's stage. Just hold down shoot to keep shooting fire at him. Keep doing so until it dies. Now, go to the capsule, and grab the upgrade! To use it, hold down the Square button until X yells "GGRRRAH!", and shoot to get a spiral shot, the most powerful attack next to the Hadoken upgrade.
Boss Help:
Chill Penguin (No, I didn't get this from ScratchX. I did it long before this post):
CP's Weakness: Fire Wave
How to beat: Either burn him with fire after beating Flame Mammoth, or wall jump while he is attacking, and drop when he is vulnerable. (He stops moving, or flies past you, or hanging from the cieling)
Armored Armadillo:
Weakness: Electric Spark
How to beat: You know how he is almost impossible to beat? Well, I dicovered something. Pull out your Electric Spark attack when he is done spinning. His sheilds fly away, allowing you to hurt him WHENEVER you shoot him. Now, switch to your X buster (your basic weapon). The best to do is get the arm upgrade in Sting Chameleon's stage, because you get an extra charged blast. So charge until you hear X say "GRRRRRRRAH!" Then when AA comes near you, just blast him...so just stay away from his attacks.
Hint For Armored Armadillo: When he does the attack when he bounces off the walls, jump into the top corner he is heading towards, and keep wall jumping until he bounces away. You'll stay safe!
Spark Mandrill:
Weakness: Shotgun Ice (Chill Penguin)
How to beat: When fighting, just shoot the Shotgun Ice. He will freeze. As soon as he unfreezes, just shoot him again. He is frozen, his health goes down like a crashing plane, and he can't even touch you. 
I will add more later...

Yeah that's what I did. Chill Penguin. All of his attacks except for jumping at you will be dodged.

Re: MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
Vile-Boss
Vile (Highway) :VILE:
---------------------
Difficulty: *
Vile is the first boss you fight. Use Charged X-Buster shots on him, and
make sure to hit his head, and not his Ride Armour.
Attacks:
--------
Punch: Vile punches you.
Jump: Vile jumps.
Dash: Vile dashes at you, and then punches you. Impossible to dodge
without Foot parts (Dash).
Ground Shock: Vile shoots a shock along the ground that freezes you. He
will sometimes try to punch you after this attack.
Strategy: Just dodge his attacks as best you can, while pelting his
head with charged, or repeated Buster shots.

Re: MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
-----------------------------------------------------------------
|NOTE: Go to Flame Mammoth's stage and get the Foot Parts before|
|doing anything. Dash is arguably the most useful Parts. |
-----------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------
Storm Eagle (New-Type Airport) :STRM:
-------------------------------------
Difficulty: *
This guy is next, because he is so weak, and you'll get the most
powerful attack short of the Hadoken from him.
Attacks:
--------
Wind: Storm Eagle starts up a lengthy wind that slowly pushes you back.
Dash forward repeatedly, and shoot him with your X-buster.
Storm Tornado: Not nearly as fearsome as the attack you'll get, this
deals no damage at all. It just pushes you back real quick, so dash
forward to keep from getting blown off the Death Rogumer, while
pestering him with X-Buster shots.
Swooping: Storm Eagle takes to the skies, and swoops down a few times,
inflicting damage. Dash around to dodge his swoops.
Falling feathers: As you begin to weaken him, Storm Eagle will add four
falling "feathers" to his wind attack. Dash and dodge these.
Jump: Occasionally, he'll just jump. It looks like a swooping attack is
starting, but he settles back down, usually following with Wind.
Mini-Birds: Falcon shoots a projectile that forms tiny birds. Dash jump
over them and continue fighting.
Strategy: Dash-dodge his swoops, dash against his Winds, all while
hitting him with your X-Buster. After a while, he'll die, leaving the
most awesome Maverick weapon in your hands.
Happy New Year!

Re: MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
---------------------------------------------
Chill Penguin (Abandoned Missile Base) :CHLP:
---------------------------------------------
Difficulty: **
The X-Buster is enough for this bird. Keeping to the walls will keep you
safe, and charged shots are your friend.
Attacks:
--------
Shotgun Ice: Penguin shoots chunks of ice at you. You can either blow them
up, or charge on the wall.
Slide: Chill Penguin slides at you on his belly. He is indestructible at
this point (Fire Wave excluded) and he will bounce off the wall and go back.
Wall jump while charging, then BAM!
Ice Penguins: Chill Penguin creates two Ice Penguins. They just stand there,
taking both your and Penguin's shots. Leave them alone and charge up your
X-Buster.
Snow storm: Chill Penguin grabs the ring on the ceiling, and hangs from
there, as you are blown backwards, as are any Ice Penguins. He is NOT
invulnerable while doing this, so wall-climb up to him, and shoot your
charged shot at him.
Jump: He jumps. Dash under him to avoid this. This attack is only dangerous
if you decide to stay in a top corner while charging for too long.
Strategy: Avoid his shots, mainly by keeping to the walls, and charge-shoot
him as often as you can. If he corners you up there, a jump from the
highest point can save you.
Happy New Year!

Re: MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
----------------------------------------------------
Flame Mammoth (Experimental Weapons facility) :FLMM:
----------------------------------------------------
Difficulty: * with Storm Tornado, **** without.
If you have Storm Tornado, spam it on him. Otherwise, keep reading...
Attacks:
--------
Jump Stomp: Flame Mammoth will jump, and land with an earthshaking effect.
Dash under him and wall climb, or you'll be knocked off your feet.
Oil Glob: The boss will fire a glob of oil, which does nothing on its own
and will go under one of the walls, taken by the conveyor. The Mammoth can
set these on fire for a world of hurt, and dashing over it will slow you down.
Fire Shot: 3-4 Fire shots are fired at you. When cornered, these are difficult
to evade. The best course of action is to run through him and across the room.
Occasionally, he'll stop to gloat. Don't waste this time, hit him with
everything you've got.
Strategy: Avoid his fire, steer clear of the blobs and dash-jump over him if
he gets close. Charge whenever possible, but remember that it's hard to charge
and dash at the same time.

Re: MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
-----------------------------------
Spark Mandrill (Power Plant) :SPRK:
-----------------------------------
Difficulty:
(That's right, 0)
Shotgun Ice, then when he unfreezes, Shotgun Ice again. There's no reason to
fight fair.
Attacks:
--------
Electric Spark: Several sparks that travel along walls fly at you.
Swing: He'll grab the bar up top and attempt to climb over and land on you.
Get to the wall, climb and shoot.
Drill: Hand becoming drills, Sparky will run at you. He's invincible to
Everything except Shotgun Ice right now (which, if you DO have, you shouldn't
Need to see this attack).
Strategy: Freeze him repeatedly with Shotgun Ice. That's it, you beat him.

Re: MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
--------------------------------------------
Armoured Armadillo (Energy Mine Ruins) :ARAM:
--------------------------------------------
Difficulty: ***
Armadillo isn't a walk in the park, even with the Electric Spark. Although the
Spark shatters his armour, it doesn't incapacitate him like the previous boss.
Attacks:
--------
Rolling Shield 1: This is always his first attack. He will roll across the room,
then bounce up and down across, and back towards the middle. Jump over his first
roll, then dash to avoid. Until you've gotten his health down to about 1/3,
he'll always stop this attack in the center of the room. That's when you zap
him.
Rolling Shield 2: Armoured Armadillo will charge up on the ground, like Sonic.
Then, he'll speed around the room, up the wall, on the ceiling and back down,
getting faster every time. Jump over him, and don't bother shooting.
Laser: He'll shoot bursts of blue lasers towards you. You CAN try to jump over
the shots and fire back, but staying on the wall and charging, then when he
finishes, shoot the massive blast at him. He'll usually follow up with a Rolling
Shield 1.
Block: If you didn't knock his shield off, he'll block most of your shots.
Strategy: Don't bother shooting him right away. Instead, wait for him to finish
his Rolling Shield 1, then blast him with a Spark as he's landing. At this
point, he'll become invincible for a while, commenting on your strength,
so charge up your X-Buster and blast him when he starts shooting. After that,
keep dodging and blasting. Never wall climb when he is Rolling Shielding,
as he can get you up there.

Re: MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
-----------------------------------------
Launch Octopus (Subterranean Base) :LCOP:
-----------------------------------------
Difficulty: **
Octopus is an interesting fight, but quite easy if you don't run out of Rolling
Shield.
Attacks:
--------
Homing Torpedo: He shoots a few small robot things at you, which are homing.
They can be destroyed, but chances are one will still get to you if you're
close.
Torpedo Spread: Launch Octopus fires a spread shot of projectiles at you.
They can be destroyed.
Tornado: Launch Octopus jumps up and spins, creating a tornado that sucks
you in. It deals no damage, so dash away from it.
Strategy: Just spam Rolling Shield, and avoid whatever attacks he manages
to produce. He isn't much of a challenge. If you run out of Shields, Electric
Spark or Storm Tornado are next best.

Re: MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
------------------------------------------
Boomerang Kuwanger (Fortress Tower) :BMKW:
------------------------------------------
Difficulty: **
Nasty in theory, quite easy to avoid in reality.
Attacks:
--------
Boomerang Cutter: He shoots his boomerang headpiece at you. Jump over,
shoot and jump as it comes back.
Dash & Grab: Kuwanger will dash at you and attempt to grab you with
his pincers, then toss you upwards. If he misses, he will lose
balance, so dash jump over him and fire off some torpedoes.
Spinning: He will spin around you and damage you continuously. Dash out
of there!
Teleport: After his sequence of attacks, Kuwanger will teleport back
to his starting location, prime for some Torpedoes.
Strategy: Jump over his dashing and his boomerang. He will follow two
patterns:
Pattern 1: If he managed to grab you with his pincers, he will spin
around you, then teleport back to his starting position.
Pattern 2: If you jumped over him, he'll attempt to Boomerang you, then
return to his original position or dash again. Either way, dash jump
back to where you were before, and repeat.

Re: MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
-----------------------------------
Sting Chameleon (Recon Base) :STCN:
-----------------------------------
Difficulty: ***
Once you have Kuwanger's Boomerang Cutter, he's quite easy.
Attacks:
--------
Chameleon Sting: Chameleon will climb into a corner and shoot 3-pronged
blasts at you. Go to the opposite corner, and try to dodge 'em.
Tongue sting 1: Chameleon will cloak himself, and move towards you.
If you dash away, he'll move again, and then shoot his tongue at you. Jump at
the last second to avoid.
Rock Drop: He will go into a top corner and laugh as rocks fall on you.
Dash to avoid, or just wall hug, as they rarely fall there.
Tongue Sting 2: He'll stay on the ground and shoot his tongue straight
this time. Dash jump away from him.
Strategy: Just dodge his Sting and Rocks, dash away from the Tongue, and
Boomerang him at any chance you get. Hitting him with it also stops his
current attacks.
And thats the end of all the bosses for "Maverick HunterX"

Re: MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
Unlockable: Hadoken Fireball
Once you get everything in the game (All 8 heart pieces, all 4 energy tanks, and all 4 upgrades) and you beat all of Sigma's robots, fight your way through Armored Armadillo's level without getting hurt at all. The Hadoken capsule is at the end of the level. When you are on the rolling spike thing, dash and jump off a little bit before you land and climb up the wall to the capsule. To use it, press DOWN + FORWARD + SQUARE (fast). You have to have full health to use it.

Re: MegaManX and Maverick Hunter X
The Subtanks
The four sub-tanks (E-tanks from Mega Man) are vital to surviving Sigma's Castle ... Of Death. Hahahahaha. Once you get a sub-tank, you refill it by picking up life energy when X's life is maximum. Armored Armadillo's shield, when powered up by the upgraded X-Buster, is best for this (use on small enemies).
Storm Eagle ... Go to the area with fire turrets and move past them to the left to find Sub Tank.
Spark Mandrill ... Go down the first ladder and keep going forward until you hit a wall. Use the Boomer-Kuwanger's boomerang to get Sub Tank.
Armored Armadillo ... Wait for the first Spike Tank to pass you and enter the room that it was once in to find Sub Tank.
Flame Mammoth ... When you are inside the room with the Heart Tank go to the top and Dash off the left side. Then you will be in an area where you need to hit the ceiling with your helmet upgrade to find Sub Tank.

Hint: Heart Tanks
In each level there is one heart tank that will make your life-bar longer.
Chill Penguin: go on top of the cave and use Fire Wave (from Flame Mammoth) on the igloos. The heart will be on the last igloo.
Flame Mammoth: after defeating Chill Penguin, you will be able to walk on the floor using the Ice Shotgun weapon. After destroying the miners, go underneath the platforms and walk to the heart by freezing the lava.
Boomerang Kuwanger: after scaling the outside wall, go to the top and use the Boomerang Cutter (from Boomerang Kuwanger) to grab the heart.
Sting Chameleon: before entering the cave, slide down the hole and use the upgraded boots to break through the wall and dash to the far right to obtain the heart.
Spark Mandrill: after you get overwelmed with the robots on the ground and ceiling, look for a ladder going down. Climb up the wall at that spot (not on the ladder) and use Boomerang Cutter to grab the heart.
Storm Eagle: at the top of the escalator platforms, dash to the very left to get the heart.
Armored Armadillo: the second big 'plower' can be destoryed by the use of Fire Wave. Go forward you see an upward tunnel. Climb it and you will see the heart.
Launch Octopus: ride the third air jet to the top of the boat. Destoy the boat and let it sink. Go down with the boat and walk to the right. Enter the room and destroy the long snake. Then move to the right and get the heart.
