PrinceWatercress plays Mega Man X3 - Part 11 of 11

Apologies for the sound rising up in volume around 2:26. Don't know what was up with that. But that's it. That's all there is. Hope you enjoyed.

Remember the squid boss that we fought at the end of the second section? Well, now that Vile is alive, that's squid's not there. Instead, you'll have to make your way to the right, go through the door and fight Vile a second time.

Vile will now have the new Goliath Robot Ride armor, which you sadly cannot get in-game. Go all the way to the other side of the room immediately. This makes almost all of his attacks a moot point immediately. From there, wait for him to rush at you (you'll know he's going to do when you hear the sound of him dashing towards you) and hit him with a single normal shot from the X-Buster. Keep doing this over and over. You've done it. That's it.

He has a second form just like last time. Equip the Ray Splasher, then escape to the far side of the room. When he shows up, hit him with the Ray Splasher. From there, dash to the other side again and repeat. It's the same battle as last time! After this, it's the end of Vile...until Mega Man X8, anyway.

Almost forgot about the Z-Saber...it really does give you a 1-Up just about every time when you strike the power-up barrel in the center. It also works well against the bosses, too. Just shoot the Z-Saber projectile at them, and it cuts their health bar to ribbons. After two hits from the Z-Saber, they're all done.

Finally, we have another battle with both of Sigma's forms. This time around, I use the Z-Saber and the projectile from it ensure that Sigma is deader than dead on rounds one and two.

Since Zero is dead, Dr. Doppler takes his place at the end. Despite being damaged at X's hands, he shows up one more time to hit Sigma with the anti-Sigma program, sacrificing himself in an attempt to take Sigma with him. When you look at the damaged fortress from the cliff, Zero obviously won't be with you. Ditto for the enemy roll call.

And that's pretty much it for Mega Man X3! Enjoy the ending (again)!
