NintendoCapriSun plays Mega Man X - Part 7 of 10

We continue through Sigma's fortress and take the fight to more of the Mavericks one more time!

Sigma Stage 2

Remember the platforms from the Storm Eagle stage? Well, they're back, and they now run across paths on walls that are much easier to see.

You'll face Chill Penguin right after the beginning. Since you have the Fire Wave this time, you can proceed to light him on fire.

The Robot Ride soldiers can be killed before they can hitch a ride. You can do this with the Fire Wave.

You'll soon come across a bridge, where you'll face Storm Eagle.

Use the fully charged version of Chameleon Sting to get to the final boss. Be sure to save weapons energy for it, because you're going to need it for the boss at the end of this section.

This is a wall face. The weak spots are the two eyes that pop out as well as the center piece. After the two eyes come out to hit you and return, the walls will close in a little bit and allow for the "nose" to fly around and hit you. Sometimes the eyes will be blue instead of red, and will shoot fireballs in two directions. If you take the eyes out first, the walls won't narrow the room down when you finish off the center piece.

Sigma Stage 3

No sooner do you begin this stage that you have to fight Armored Armadillo.

You'll take on Sting Chameleon soon after. Since you now have the Boomerang Cutter, you can basically get him in an infinite damage loop. When he latches onto the ceiling with his tongue, just fire a Boomerang Cutter towards him. It will arc upwards and knock him off, and he'll leap over you and do the same thing again. Once again, face him and shoot a Boomerang Cutter. This will keep happening until he dies.

You'll then face Spark Mandrill, followed by Launch Octopus and Flame Mammoth.

Finally, you'll take on some sort of dinosaur skull tank with an independently moving platform at the bottom. The bottom will move back and forth across the ground, smashing the walls as the top "skull" part flies around. The top part is the thing you want to hit, and you want to hit it with the Boomerang Cutter. When they combine and create lightning bolts, leap up the left wall and stay in the corner to avoid the purple energy balls it shoots out.

Whatever you do, you don't want to be on the bottom platform when it hits a wall, or X will be stunned for a few seconds. You also don't want to be on it when the top part moves towards it, either.
