Rockman / Megaman Zx - Gameplay Guide - Area K Subtank

[shanewash1993]

All I have to say is mission impossible! This task is frustrating, I just about bust trough the last set of bricks and the lava gets me.

[JetEternal]

welp......looks like im not getting that subtank. Holy crap thats alot of running around.

[SuperStriker75]

this part is a BITCH

[ZERODylanV2]

if you die? does that mean you have to head back to area K-5?

[LDKRyden]

i had to do it 2 times.... i missed the data disk :(

[MsBurre]

that door was killing me..

[Z3ro42]

Can u get 2 subtanks in ZX?

[jjkillerx]

i did dis whole ting on hard nd it wasnt dere

[jjkillerx]

wat song

[jjkillerx]

Wat song is dis

[jjkillerx]

how r u recordin it cos im getin the game soon nd i might what to post stuff up

[jjkillerx]

omega is quite easy if u hve plyed mmz3 i beat im wit my computer keyboard u know QWERTY keys get back over the spikes thats hard

[EzioAuditoreXIII]

In ZXA how do you buster edit

[EmLeahlie]

With the first part, I found that taking my time avoiding the enemies was well worth my 9 lives for the next part =.= I still havent gotten it godamnit..

[pyrohomunculus]

How can it not be worth the effort?

IT'S A SUB-TANK!

You may be 'blessed' with the ability to ignore the bonus' that come from getting those things, but some of us are not that skilled.

[chaos35789]

how did u do this so well, i keep dying at the pt where u need to destroy the blocks

[NightbladeEagle]

I tried this six - yes I mean SIX times with 3 lives each now - but in this Video this looks extremely easy.

[randomdrifter]

@NightbladeEagle Not exactly easy, but not exactly difficult. It was just more trouble than its worth, and camera co-ordination (or wrestling) didn't make things any easier either IMO.

[NightbladeEagle]

@randomdrifter Wow I finally did it. First I had no Chance and got hit by anyhing or the Lava, some time after this I start to get really good with this, but not good enough to actually get through it. Then after some more dying I finally were fast enough - thank God!

Now I just need to beat Omega...yeah! -_-

[MilesTheMusicDude]

@randomdrifter you know how the two medical chicks give you the missions and they give you a subtank?well can you get anothr one by doing their missions again?

[furstenfeldbruck]

man, i thought there was oniy two subtanks in the whole game!!!!!! but i still won the game with only two hehehe

[Hidenozuke]

God, I fucking hate hate HATE trying to get this sub tank!!! I've got words (and possibly actions) for the asshole who thought this entire process was absolutely necessary!

Definitely an awesome guide. It helped a lot, and the music is awesome.

[OhRicey]

whats the song?

[BluesChopper]

i'm playing normal and in the area after you break the blocks, there is a pool of lava so i can't get over to the hidden door. why is this?????

[llXanatoll]

Once the lava has gone through that area, that pool will be there. You have to rush to and break the blocks before the flow reaches you.

[citronvand]

Finally did it, thanks for the video.

[calamity234]

lol i got all the the life ups now my life is like the bosses

[thankster]

1353 TIMES I cursed at this part of the game and still am M*Tha F*cking Stage

[EvilRyuGuy]

Now, why did Capcom have to be a cruel and sadistic prick while designing this part of the game?

[Meidoification]

@EvilRyuGuy I personally think the running back and forth between Area X and Area L was way worse.

[garchompelago]

@EvilRyuGuy because they want you to be frustrated getting one single subtank that would even risk your life and not even worth your time getting

[VOIDxZERO]

THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING THIS VIDEO! This seemed like an impossible task outside Easy Mode but now that I know the secret to it it'll be okay.

[oiioxxxoiio]

it seems ...almost graceful as you do it..

it's a pain in the ass.

[randomdrifter]

Its a huge PITA alright x.x

The only reason why I collected that one sub-tank is that I'm a collector.

[oko379]

this is the most truble some part to get a sub tank i died almost 15 times :(

[BetaWax]

This is the last f******* sub tank i need, i already beat Ox, and he was way much easier than having to go through this bull... Ugh, even though i beat the game, i don't have the necessary coordination to break the first wall ¬¬ dagnabbit!!!

[randomdrifter]

Like you, I had no love in getting this subtank either.

It was just for completions' sake.

[BetaWax]

Yeah, completions sake, being a 100% completionst nut doesn't allow me the peace of mind if i don't bother getting it... Though yesterday i bought Advent so that should keep my busy a good while, i dread the point where i have to get the medals... Maybe after that i'll come back to this =D

[randomdrifter]

IMO, Advent was good for a while, but somehow, I didn't feel as involved in Advent as I did in ZX however, didn't enjoy it as much. Being able to become the enemy bosses was cool and all, but Advent felt kind of... clunky to me.

But well, its just me. I know a lot of people out there prefer Advent over ZX.

[BetaWax]

Actually, i prefer ZX to Advent aswell. I got ZX four days ago, and yesterday i got Advent =D I found the story in ZX better than Advent. And although becoming the bosses is fun, some are completely useless... Some are mainly one use only, and to get the Medals (just got my last one ^^). Quality over quantity i say... Plus, most of them seemed quite independant of Albert, just random encounters with zero corelation to the story in my opinion. Aswell with the other Mega Men fighting over Model W.

[elgato9o]

dude i went to the computer and made the lava flow slow and still there is lava in the lave chase room when u must break the stones blocking the way!! so dammn annoying do u know whys that?

[Cybaria]

Because you need to enter the room from the left door, not the right one

[GekkoGear704]

@randomdrifter there was a datadisk in the same area where u get the subtank in that room, can u please tell me what was on that datadisk?

[XxRumble]

Those fucking hooks kept hitting me by doing that in and out bull. =/

So annoying.

[rigonlu]

in normal mode i cant do this beacuse in the way bloked by rocks... there is lava, can i have this subtank in normal mode yes or not??? :S

[MarcoRossi101]

I always wondered what was behind that red door. Thanks a Lot.

[digidigdj]

hi just wondering who the artist of the song used for the vedio... not the ending ^^

[JiangRyudo]

The song is called "Innocence" and it's from the Megaman ZX arranged album called "ZX Tunes".

[digidigdj]

hi just wondering who the artist of the song used in the vedio.. not the ending ^^

[julioorange]

man in normal mode there is lava there so i cant cross to the door or i die

[UkeUkeMakinLove]

I BEG OF YOU, I need you as a friend XD

Also do you recommend me to get Digimon Game for the DS? like seriously i loved Savers on Ps2 XD

[BetaWax]

hey whats the end song called? it starts at around 4:54

[ZXVanX]

Green Grass Gredation

[tsukasaofthevirus]

whats the background song name?

[ZXVanX]

Its called innocence

[Alinimus]

hey dude i noticed your Model O! How did you get it. I get the second subtank with your help and i beat him easily with a low life.but i dont have now Model O

[tsukasaofthevirus]

take the mysterious rock to Flauve

[Alinimus]

thx man:D i beat the main boss, but i not defeat Model O yet? i found him and i try to beat him but i lost, because i only have 1 subtank and 1 extra life:( im sorry im beginner. i start playing since 1-2 month when i bore:D:D:D and i play on Emulator so i have problems

[otakuanimefan1234]

If this is the 2nd most troublesome thing, what´s the 1st one?

[halal20]

help!

im having trouble finding the life max ups...

where are those found?

[Soleprodigy]

it pisses me off that u have to do all this shit for a subtank, i rather fight Omega Zero

[rx7superchai]

where u download this song in megaman zx?is it free?

[gonzales50]

i need this subtank

im on the final boss and i cant defeat it without using 2 subtanks i lost 4 lifes

[RagingLunacy]

you waited for the lava to get dangerously close on purpose there, didn't you? ;)

[randomdrifter]

Haha, I wish I could.

Problem is, playing the DS with a camera in the way (esp in a fast paced game like ZX) is extremely difficult. You'd hear me cursing and swearing iRL.

What happened there was that I had difficulty adjusting with the controls, the camera and also the positioning of the enemy, so when the laval got close, desperation kicked in and I just winged it XP

[Omega7987]

yay i did few days ago only one hand charge=)

[Omega7987]

before those blocks in my game there is lava and i cant get through

[rifri98a]

Does the speed setting on the lava stay on after you leave the K area?

[PinoyBataa]

yay ty XD

[tobolman2nd]

nice gameplay

[Zeryuu]

Great Vid,the Tank is realy anoing,but after u get Used to it the ST of the Sub-Q takes more Time and nervs..

At least an Tip for the --> going Lava, when u have Problems with the first Blocks, change to Fx while you attemp to Land behind the last Enemies, and Charge up both Arms, stack to the Sims to the left and shot them from there, and for the other Blocks, DONT release both Arms at the same time, cuz it will only 1 shot then, you have to release them with an little delay for both shoots

[MarioSmash4]

i hate the lava because i die

[Tajudine]

i hate the lava subtank, there is other way to get it?

when I am readdy to break the last wall the lava appear and destroct me.

I don't now who u did it

[filipemtx]

nice vid tutorial. got the f*ing tank! yes

[filipemtx]

what is the 1st troublesome thing in the game? the boss?

[xMetaSolx]

Ahhhh you're back can take one for the team........us collectiors who get bored and want to get that final sub tank just because we got bored with Ox and owning everything.......besides pumpkin pie....which rocks.........

[Dogonho]

Man...it seems so freaking easy when you do it...

I always get stuck in the blocked pathway...

[randomdrifter]

Because that is the game mechanics.

You do what needs to be done, then it won't be there, but risk getting killed by lava chasing you.

Easy, no?

[happyKiat]

thanks!!!i never thought that u must come from Lava Chase side

[DarkCyntax]

If you've beaten the boss...then why not come from the back so you don't have to worry about the lava. Except when you've hit the switch and have to go up.

[DarkCyntax]

[edit]

...to go up...(when getting the tank)

[randomdrifter]

You're welcome to try and find out where you'll get stuck in in doing so =)

[filipemtx]

u can,t there is lava on the floor, at least the lava is chasing you

[DarkCyntax]

Played it through awhile ago and yes the way showed in this vid is the way...should have played the level before posting dumb shit sry

[filipemtx]

np i tried you way to figure out XP

[kalvinlamlam]

100th comment!!!!

[randomdrifter]

*slaps you* D=<

[kalvinlamlam]

lol

[Gindelbi]

I just came in from the other side so the lava wasn't there.

[Gindelbi]

Oh yeah, apart from that, you don't seem 'average' as far as your skill at this game goes. lol

[Gindelbi]

*Ignore that entire thing, I didn't realise my save was on easy. It doesn't work on normal.

[alecdensing]

How did u make ur HP so High?!

[WonSab]

Incidentally, what was *the* most troublesome thing to do in the game?

[randomdrifter]

Perfecting the final stage w/o getting hit.

[WonSab]

Ooh. Ouch.

[XLordxFuzzyX]

Would any of the chips help? Do you normally use them?

[Gindelbi]

Quick charge I would say

[driger101]

i never really get subtanks unless i really neeed it dats y i usually get it at the end of the game 4 the last boss and i never ever get a full life to the top like urs i find it hard 2 get :/ nice vid dude!

[tamplet]

U're not an expert yet u play in hard mode...

And u say it's not difficult to get that subtank while many other players (like me) had to play for hours to get it...

I wonder what is a real expert...

[randomdrifter]

A person who plays with his/her eyes closed with both hands tied behind his/her back.

[tamplet]

U mean some one who can use telekinesis?

... I guess I can call u an expert among the ordinary people then.

[sonic12435]

at 2:50 thats how u got through the door that took me hrs to get throught the lava thing plus i didnt know that the pit has a door! LOL

[fishgut677]

thanks randomdrifter. I just now got the K4 tank thanks to your great instructional video.

[herosaber]

Well, then you're very lucky or used to it.

[herosaber]

Good run. You're very good. I failed doing this for about five rounds. About 15 lives in total, X_X.

To those who need subtanks, usually only need two. They're also easy to get. Some people need subtanks, Random. Not everyone is a expert.

[randomdrifter]

I'm no expert either, just a casual player -_-

[Darknesszoa]

ok i will stop and i am very sorry.If you think that i am spamming like darkzoa did then i will respect that

[Darknesszoa]

my friend darkzoa is keep giving you 5 because he likes your skills but you block him for no reason

[randomdrifter]

Giving one any kind of high rating gives NO excuse for subliminal behaviour.

If you plan on harassments through repeated posting of what I consider spam messages the same way he did and whine about it as well, this account of yours will get blocked as well.

[atomicbudhai]

can you tell me where i can get too area L?

[kjh495]

man this is hard...

[darkzero16]

so if i slow down the lava i can leave th area and come back later to get the subtank???

[randomdrifter]

No.

The lava slowing down event is applicable only when you enter the area at that time.

[darkzero16]

crud now i gotta do it over again

[haimerejX]

I seriously cant get past the blocks, wth is with the height omg. lol

ANyway.. you said the song is innocence from the promotional zx trailer. Where can i find it?

[Khrada]

You can get the song by buying ZX tune (If I am correct)

[cyberdarkmegamanx]

thnx man

i really wanted to see if it was possbile

(u werent touced O_o)

[Khrada]

It will be easier on emulators because you can save state ;P.

You're awesome by the way, this is a really hard one.

[Densebrains]

This subtank is so hard to get. Especially when I can't get through the first lava chase. I mean the horizontal one not the verticle one.

1 Need to avoid or kill the enermies that are in the way.

2 Need to switch and fire the knuckle busters accurately and quickly

I just can't get through the second set of verticle stone blocks that are in the way. Even on "slow" setting the lava catches up too fast.

[flyingguy92]

nice music

[rokman2]

why do you hafto do allll of that just for 1 subtank I mean come on .

[swordsmen108]

i cant get it for nothin

[DiaperedCream]

You hit the lava going up twice without dieing or getting hurt! How did you do that?

[randomdrifter]

The lava made no contact yet, that's why I didn't die.

[ryudragon7]

dude I tried many times and it isn't worth it.

[randomdrifter]

Agreed.

You only get it for the sake of completing Normal 100% which.... yields in no reward as well.

[andyhtk27]

good

[VirusZero578]

K thx

[VirusZero578]

With HX at 0:10

[randomdrifter]

Main -> Sub -> Main

[VirusZero578]

WHoa whoa whoa! How do you do that 3 hit combo? I want to know

'

[randomdrifter]

What 3 hit combo?

[zerocrossrock]

you cut it abit close there getting to the computer.

[randomdrifter]

Still works fine for most the part.

[AexonDrake]

is it me or did i just kill flammole in 10 sec flat

i was playing while watching..in hx and overdive i did combo and he died

[randomdrifter]

Yes.

Flammole and Fistleo can be killed extremely fast if you know what you're doing.

[MigeulP]

What mode is this?

[randomdrifter]

Normal.

[xberrot]

how do u get the area L subtank,i dont get energypacks when i smash the boxes or get a mission after i talk to rose

[randomdrifter]

Do 3 mission sets for Area L (1 set = once for Rose and once for Muguette).

Once your 3rd mission set is completed, the Subtank will be transferred to you automatically.

[sotalitefella]

Damn, Great job man.

Friggin Inti and/or Capcom...making such a thing so damn complicated. @.@

So...the only way to get the theme(Innocence?) ordering the ZX Tunes or what? O.O

[randomdrifter]

I would recommend getting the original, beats having to download a watered down, lowly MP3 file.

You can ask anyone of your friends who are Japanese savvy to help you place an order and have it delivered to you.

[xberrot]

thx i needed this

[randomdrifter]

No prob.

[Namrepus221]

Is this even possible AFTER you beat Flammole?

Cause the lava in the horizontal chase scene isn't there for some reason after I beat him

[randomdrifter]

If you go in from Flammole's side (K-5), it won't be there, but as long as you enter it from K-1, the lava will start chasing you.

[JTissueXu]

Would it help to empty FX's weapon bar?

[randomdrifter]

Full or empty doesn't matter.

All that is needed is the partially charged attack's punch.

[omega1084]

holy shit you beatthe lava when it almost got you you chose cool music and told people how to get a subtank you RULE

[randomdrifter]

That subtank is a waste of time, since players shouldn't be getting hit throughout most of the course of the game anyway.

Lucky we don't need to collect it in Hard Mode since its not there.

[Gambrick]

What? I just wasted my time killing myself over something thats not there? Thats some bull. I'm guessing its the same as area L right?

[drillsorrcerer66]

since u apparently have full health, can u like make a vid of how to get the life up in area i

[TullyMurphy2]

man i totally aggre with u, it should have been something more than a subtank. i mean u dotn even need all the subtanks to beat the game on normal(hell i used one fighting omega and that was it) and u cant collect them on hard mode so its really not worth it.

[fdragon10]

wow really nice job!!

[randomdrifter]

Its nothing much, but thanks =)

[PyroManSP]

one question: when you went through the door after doing the lava climb with the flow on slow, how did you go through in Px and exit in Zx?

[randomdrifter]

They were 2 different videos assembled together! =)

[thisismyfake]

which biometal is ur fav? o_O mines Ox.

You know you can use overdrive with Ox

[randomdrifter]

Ox and Px.

Ox is the strongest close range combatant in the game depending on when the OIS is activated, and has a saber reach significantly longer than Zx, and Px clears the ground the fastest whilst remaining mobile at the same time.

However, OIS Ox has it weak moments. It is extremely immobile.

[Falzaro]

wow not even touched good job

[randomdrifter]

I got damaged twice, but still, thanks.

[XLightThief]

Ah.. I'll never get this subtank ever.

[randomdrifter]

You can, just takes a bit of practice =)

[XLightThief]

No I ment like I'm not gonna try >_>

[VirusZero578]

Thanks! Now i know how to get this sub tank. By the way what is the name of ths song?

[randomdrifter]

Innocence

[IshidaTheQuincy]

hey... the room where you found the mysterious rock... do you need the mmz3 or mmz4 cartridge to go in there?

[randomdrifter]

No. Just beat Omega if you don't own Z3 or Z4.

[IshidaTheQuincy]

well, thats a relief =D

thanx! ^^

[xeroaxlvx]

nice dude, it took me 6 lives to do that no wepon charger

[randomdrifter]

Quick Charge is not needed, as what is needed is only a half charge, which can be done instantaneously, and it can be done with an empty weapon bar.

[fdragon10]

fully charge wat??

[gameplaya856]

anyone no how to get omega z? i dont no how to g et him -_-

[randomdrifter]

Play Normal difficulty at least, defeat Omega in combat, and then go get the Mysterious Rock.

[INFINITEx8x]

so my question gets ignored???

[randomdrifter]

Just buy the ZX Tunes CD

[fdragon10]

ur really good lol and song is nice it took me 5 times to get the up lava with Hx man its so hard i didnt know that red line thingy door how to open ty for showing !! and yeah i know how it feels with the camera thing lol

[randomdrifter]

Its annoying recording that way. You can never perform at any decent level of performance when having to worry about the camera aim being off.

[DarkEvo1]

HAH! I HAVE IT NOOBS!

But... if it was your 2nd hardest thing in the game, what was your first anyway?

[randomdrifter]

Its not the 2nd hardest, but 2nd most annoying.

The first most annoying one is the Area L Subtank side-quest, which also was a huge waste of time IMO.

[WrenchNinja]

I must just suck at Fx cause I can never get past all those blocks quick enough. I can get to the last pair but that's it. Quick Charge chip equipped and everything. >_>

[randomdrifter]

You don't need quick charge.

The trick behind it is to not charge fully.

[Cheatachu]

Hx is only good for running around, really. :P

I can't get through the smashing part... the lava always gets to me. :(

Do not fully charge :)
