# Mega Man Zero Where Zero is awakened # General Info # Shield Glitch When equipped with the saber and Boomerang Shield, Zero can hold the shield and slash relatively quickly. Enemies won't get iframes from the slash, allowing Zero to hack away. Keep in mind Zero cannot dash while holding the shield, so be careful if you have to dodge. # Weapon Experience This game has a weapon experience system. You start the game unable to do a triple slash or fire a full charge buster shot, or apply elemental chip effects to those weapons. Weapons gain experience through attacking enemies, so the more you use one the faster you can gain these effects. There are a few grind spots if you want to grind it out, but those take time.

Weapon values filled in by Mrcab in a very not scientific attempt to measure things. More info is welcome
