Mega Man XZ: The Maverick Hunters

Weapons Guide

Mega Man will gain a new weapon each time you defeat one of the eight stage bosses. Each of the weapons will have powers similar to the boss which it was gained from. The weapons can be used for different situations in certain areas of some stages and most importantly each one is the weakness of a certain boss encountered in the game.

Mega Buster Mega Buster Gained from: N/A
The Mega Buster is Mega Man's primary weapon. You will have this weapon from the start of the game. Apart from the standard yellow energy beam that fires from the gun, if you charge the weapon by holding fire, when Mega Man glows blue, a small burst of energy will fire out which causes more damage to targets.

If you charge it for longer, Mega Man will glow green and fire out a larger energy beam which causes the maximum amount of damage to a target that the Mega Buster can inflict.		 Mega Buster

This weapon will shoot out a bomb encased in a small bubble which will float out and up into the air and will explode once it hits a target or a wall. This weapon can be used to encase some enemies inside the bubble and be damaged by the blast from the exploding bomb. Danger Wrap
