Wily Machine 8 Wily Capsule 8 This is the most likely place a runner will need to call upon Rush Medic. This has a Red Cross on the PS1 version and is a white box on the Legacy Collection release. Summoning Rush Medic tends to lose about 8 seconds of time, b...

You must have Thunder Claws for this section You want to have an extra life going into Wily 2. If for some reason you have 0 Lives left, collect the 1up over the boss door. After getting off the sled, swap to ice wave, slide four times, then use an ice wave....

General Jet Tips With the exception of the mid boss, these are auto scroller sections. Nothing you do (such as enemy kill times, again except the mid boss) makes things faster or slower. In the first half, Flash Grenade explosions "zoom off screen." In the s...

You stayed in the bottom right after getting the bolt before getting off rush jet, right? This actually saves a small amount of time. Bubble Climb 2 The second half's bubble climb requires a little finesse but can be done damageless. Go to the right a slight...

The first half of Clown Man's stage has 1 bolt not collected in any%, and a mid boss. First Three Screens Summon Rush Bike immediately. This lets Rush Bike travel on the second screen, where Mega Man automatically walks to fall into the rest of the stage, sa...

There are 4 bolts in part 2. One is collected in any% (and is harder to avoid collecting than to collect it). One hard requires a revisit, however 2 are routed into the 40 Bolts revisit. Note that the final screen Clown Climb is on the following page of this ...
