This only works on the original 2004(?) PC release, and the original PS2 release. It was patched for Legacy Collection 2, along with the shop's money underflow. If you are holding Up when you press down (including any left-or-right diagonal), Zero will fly up...

Mavericks in Mega Man X8 typically follow a few common rules They enter invincibility frames every 8 HP of damage. After the 2nd and 5th sets (at around 16 and 40 HP of damage), they advance to the next phase. Between phases 2 and 3, there is an extended ...

Base X and Zero You can dash jump at any time while simply holding dash - you do not need to re-press it. This saves the time of the starting a dash animation and/or a player consciously pressing dash-before-jump.

Zero's technique from Rainy Turtloid (down+special) has a glitched invincibility property. The move makes Zero briefly invulnerable, however it can be interrupted (typically by having whatever Zero is standing on go away). If interrupted, the game "forgets" t...

The enigma manipulation refers to guaranteeing the Enigma Cannon shot at the space colony successfully destroys it, unlocking the final stages with Zero still a playable character. Normally, even if you defeat all 8 mavericks, there is a small chance the colo...

Zero's most effective damage technique(s) involve slashing, then dashing to interrupt the combo, then slashing again. The first 2 hits of Zero's triple slash do not give bosses invincibility frames, allowing you to do this over and over again. It is a small a...

Mega Man's charge shot is replaced by firing his entire fist. Charge Shots A "half charge" is about 30-89 frames of holding B. A full charge is then 90+ frames. Half charges deal 2 damage, full charges 3. The fist after that returns to Mega Man, and the beh...
