Bonus characters:
Successfully complete the game and load your cleared saved file. The
navigator used most to complete the levels will be unlocked (Alia,
Layer, or Palette). Alia is similar to X with an X-buster, but
cannot use armor pieces. Layer is similar to Zero with a Z-saber.
Palette is similar to Axl, but has no DNA-copy abilities.

Hint: Bamboo Pandemonium stage: Leg Part I for X:
To get this, Ride Armor and Zero are suggested. After you get past
the trap room (where you fight all the Ride Armors), kill everything
here. As Zero, take the Ride Armor up on the elevator, hover over,
air dash, then finally jump out and do a double jump. If done
correctly, you can switch to X and get the part.

Hint: Earthrock Trilobite stage: Armor capsule:
To get past the canisters and get to the Armor Pod, you need the
weapon acquired from Burn Rooster. Just shoot and get the armor.

Hint: Gravity Antonion stage: Head capsule to X's Neutral armor:
Go to the Gravity Antonion stage. Use Palette as Navigator (Axl and
X recommended). When you reach the room with two teleporters, switch
the room twice and hover over the spiked area to the right. Land in
the middle break and enter the teleporter.

Hint: Gravity Antonion stage: Zero's Rare Metal:
Zero's Rare Metal is found in the Gravity Antonion stage. Use Axl
and Zero, with Layer as Navi. Copy the DNA of the characterswho walk
and dash on spikes. It is in the room after the Skipe Block mini
Boss, not right after. It is about the third room after, in the far
lower left corner.

Hint: Noah's Park stage: Buster capsule to X's Neutral Armor:
After you complete the Noah's Park stage, return there. The door is
now open at the place where you jumped up to continue.

Hint: Optic Sunflower stage: Fight Cutman:
Start the game with a Mega Man X: Command Mission saved game file on
your memory card. Immediately before you fight Sunflower, you
navigator will say something about a signal marked "CM". A portal
will open, and you can fight Cutman. He can be killed with a charged
Buster Shot.

Hint: Defeating Bosses:
Just have both character's life at full and perhaps a Life Tank. You
can kill every Boss with only the Buster and Saber.

Hint: Recommended Boss order:
The following is the recommended order of Boss to take on based on
weapon weaknesses. Note: Vile is weak against Yeti's ice weapon.

Bamboo Pandemonium
