## Tips

* Like MegaMan.EXE Hub Style, BassCross MegaMan has simple and straightforward but powerful attacks, with a customizable primary skill and a potent secondary skill.
	+ His Charge Shot, loosely based on Bass.EXE's BusterRake, fires a trio of shots in rapid succession. With the Complete penetration chip, BC MegaMan can deliver devastating blows to any targets onscreen. However, while the shots travel fast, their hitbox is smaller than the sprite would suggest. Agile targets in PvP can dodge the Charge Shot at range by dashing or dash-jumping.
		- The alternate primary skill, HelzRoln, is better suited to crowd control in Jakob and Challenge stages. It has a much smaller hitbox and is affected by gravity, unlike other projectiles, which can restrict its usefulness in areas with large pitfalls.
	+ Vanishing World Kai, on the other hand, is an instantaneous beam of pure destructive force. Fully upgraded and equipped with the Concentrated Explosion chip, it can pulverize most BOSS characters and leave them vulnerable to follow up attacks thanks to its debilitating DEF Reduction. This gives BC MegaMan an edge in raids over other Mega Men.
		- Unlike the original Vanishing World used by Bass GS, it's also omnidirectional. This can be useful for catching zoners in PvP, as getting hit even once can leave them with reduced defense and make them vulnerable to a Charge Shot follow up.
	+ If you increase Bass Cross Megaman's star rank to 5 stars & insert the Concentrated Explosion chip combined with Lethal Resonance , you will not need the base all-screen damage attack by default as you will deal a total of 374.89% damage. During both PVP & PVE segments , this would often result into an instant death with only a single hit from Vanishing World Kai.
