NintendoCapriSun plays Mega Man 3 - Part 5 of 8

Can you believe we're almost done with all this crap already?

Shadow Man Revisited
(continued)


The first Doc Robot fights like Wood Man. As you (try to) avoid his Leaf Shield and the leaves that fall from the ceiling, hit him with Needle Cannon.

The section after all those Sniper Joes with the bolas can give you a hard time, so use Rush Jet if you need to.

The second Doc Robot fights like Heat Man. Avoid the fire pillars that it shoots at you and hit it with Shadow Blade. Be sure to jump over it when it turns into a flame and charges at you.

Spark Man Revisited


You can destroy the bug on the first ladder with either the Shadow Blade or the Gemini Laser, though the Shadow Blade takes much less effort.

The spinning circles are conveyor belt platforms. They will slowly push you in the direction the center is rotating when you stand on them. They're not very big, and they're usually positioned above bottomless pits or a floor full of spikes.

The first Doc Robot fights like Metal Man. The bad news is that you don't have Metal Blade to kill him in one shot anymore. The good news is that the Magnet Missile not only does a good job of homing in on him while you stay on your side, it actually does the most damage out of all your special weapons. Hit him with it and avoid the circular saw blades that he tosses at you the same time you fire at him.

Be careful as you fall down the corridor after the first Doc Robot. This corridor is even worse than the one at the beginning of the second Shadow Man stage.

Once again, walk past the forming metal walls as soon as you see them.

The second Doc Robot fights like Quick Man. Hit him with either the Gemini Laser or the Search Snake (thank you, Mega Man Home Page). The Gemini Laser will have a better chance of hitting him either in the air or when you least expect it to, and the Search Snake will track him well on the ground. Just watch out for the boomerangs and those high jumps. They both do the same amount of damage, so don't worry if you run out of ammo for one of these weapons.

You can also use the Shadow Blade if you need to. It's not as powerful, but it can be a lot more efficient and you're more likely to hit him with the adequate range that it has.

Gemini Man Revisited



The ladder bugs are now running around on the ground. At least they don't climb up the walls, and they're actually easy to hit with the Proto Buster.
