X

**Megaman X**, commonly referred as **X**, is the main protagonist of the Megaman X series, and a playable character in Megaman X Online. He is a long-ranged character with a large array of weapons at his disposal. Despite his reliance on weapon ammunition and charging weapons, he is generally considered as a good character due to his array of good tools, a complex metagame, and the only real upgrade system in all of Megaman X Online. He is the most popular character in the game.

## Abilities

Gameplay-wise, X plays mostly the same as in the Snes games, with a few notable differences:

* He can charge special weapons and use the Spiral Crush charge shot without the arm parts.

* Like in X7/X8, he can also do an airdash without foot parts.

* He can carry only 3 weapons at a time (X-buster included). This doesn't apply to 1v1 duels, where he will have his X-buster and all other weapons available.

**Pros:**

• Most versatile character in the game, can work in any desired playstyle and counter any character with the correct set.

• Highest defense in the game thanks to armors.

**Cons:**

• While X is a jack of all trades, he is a master of none.

• Usually relies a lot on charge and armor for maximum success.

### Weapons

X mainly attacks by firing the weapon he currently has equipped. All of them have limited ammunition (except X buster). By holding down the "attack" button, X can charge the weapon to use a more powerful version of said weapon. Keep in mind that X will take more damage from a certain weapon depending on the one he currently has equipped.

### X1 weapons

This weapons are used for mostly attack and give the user a lot of possible damage outputs

### X2 weapons

This kind of weapons are an "support" kind, meaning they can't do much by themselves, but they can help in some combinations of weapons or to get assist

### X3 weapons

These are the most powerful yet the most complicated sets of weapons, as these can deal complicated effects or have weird ways to attack.

### Armor

X can use scraps to buy armor parts in the armor shop, upgrading his abilities.

 Giga Armor | Scan and tag enemies with SPECIAL. | Grants the Giga Crush attack and reduces damage taken by 1/8.

Also, Max amor has the chips from megaman X3, they work as extra upgrades for the already existent armor parts

 Body Chip
 Buster Chip
 Leg Chip

### Hadouken

With a full Light Armor, X can use the Hadouken technique by inputting down, down-forward, forward and shoot on the ground, which can kill anyone at full health. It doesn't require X to have full health, but the move consumes 3 scrap.

### Shoryuken

With a full Giga Armor, X can use the Shoryuken technique by inputting forward, down, down-forward and shoot on the ground. Like the Hadouken, it's a one-hit kill and consumes 3 scraps.

### Golden Armor/Z-Saber

With the full max armor set and 5 scrap, if you press special button X will receive the Golden armor giving him all of the enhancement chips, and the mighty Z-Saber, if you charge buster to level 3 after the cross shot is released X will still have an extra charged shot, when released X does a stroke with the Saber, it sends a beam that deals 4 bars of damage, and if you hit it directly it deals 8 bars of extra damage, in total it can deal up to 12 bars of damage, if you use it along with the buster it works as an instakill move such as Hadouken or Shoryuken.

### Ultimate Armor

X's most powerful tool it combines all of the upgrades for every armor, including chips, Z-Saber and insta kill moves, and the hover ability that is exclusive to it. X also receives the Nova Strike when equipped with the Ultimate Armor. In order to get the Ultimate Armor X needs to obtain every part of every armor (with a cooldown for each time the armor is used) or spend 10 scrap with the Golden Armor activated.

## Trivia

* From 5.0 to 6.7, X could refill his weapons for 3 scraps by pressing the "special button". This was removed because it wasn't used often and could cause X to lost scrap accidentally.
