ClementJ64 plays Mega Man X4 as Mega Man X - Part 4 of 9


We're halfway there! But first we have to meet with Colonel again...

All maps by X GOD.

Military Train


When you reach the long platform on the second car, you'll face Slash Beast. Hit him with the Jet Stingray. He'll charge at you, so jump over him. When he reaches the other side of the platform, hit him with it again.

Beating Slash Beast as X will give you the Twin Slasher. It fires in two directions and can be used to take out enemies from a distance.

Memorial Hall


When you defeat four Mavericks, you'll face The Colonel after getting a message from him at Maverick Hunter HQ telling you to meet him at the Memorial Hall.

Wait for him to stop blocking with his sword, then shoot at him as he launches three waves at you. It's always in a high-low-high pattern, but you can jump over all three of them. He'll disappear, then re-appear in front of you and slash his sword at you, so be ready to jump away from him when he shows up again. He'll then back away and shoot the waves at you again. Thankfully, that's all there is to his attack.

Once you do enough damage, you'll beat him, but you'll have to meet him again.

Jungle


The fish robots as well as the robot fishmen want you dead. The fish leap up and come at you, while the mermen will shoot spikes out of their backs.

When you reach the waterfall, you'll see some wall-walking robots. They shoot singular shots and they're painfully slow.

Shortly after you start going down the waterfall, be ready to head to the right to find a hidden enhancement capsule. This is the Leg upgrade. Once you get it, press the Jump button twice to hover. You'll be able to float left and right and stay airborne for a few seconds.

The logs on the waterfalls act as platforms.


You'll meet some new enemies here: worms and spiders. Worms move back and forth, while the spiders will shoot an electric web in one of two directions, repositioning themselves every so often to attempt to block your path.

The wasps are back, and this time you'll see their nests. Charge up the X-Buster to destroy the nests in one blow.

After you drop down, equip Rising Fire and attack the all-wood portions of the trees. One of them will contain a Heart Tank.

To beat Web Spider, avoid the webs that he throws. Equip the Twin Slasher and attack the web strand he hangs off of. This will cut it. Keep doing this for a while until he makes a series of webs after reaching half health. When he makes a series of webs and starts sending smaller spiders at you, keep hitting him with Twin Buster.

Beating Web Spider with X will give you the Lightning Web. This shoots an electric web forward. Besides attacking enemies, you can use it as a temporarily wall that you can wall jump off of, allowing you to reach things you couldn't normally get to.
