Mega Man X2 - Detour: All E-Tanks, a few Heart Tanks, and Wire Sponge Stage

This is a brief compilation of grabbing the E-tanks I skipped, in case you're looking for a How-To. Also, I grab the heart tank and upgrade I passed on Morph Moth's stage, I show a walkthrough of Wire Sponge's stage (omitted from my first video thanks to Fraps being uncooperative), and along the way I show a few alternate routes to heart tanks that I got before -- these routes are easier if you're not as dash-jump-inclined as I am :)

Summary of when each part begins:
Morph Moth heart tank - 0:01
Morph Moth armor upgrade - 0:10
Wire Sponge stage, starting with heart tank location - 0:46
Wire Sponge E-tank, followed by remainder of stage - 0:56
Flame Stag E-tank - 2:01
Magna Centipede alternate heart tank method - 2:34
Magna Centipede E-tank - 2:53
Bubble Crab alternate heart tank method - 3:26
Bubble Crab E-tank - 3:44

For the Bubble Crab E-tank, you'll need to jump again as you reach the surface of the water.

YOU CAN KILL THE SPOTLIGHTS?

Awesome.

@Dockktor Like around 2:28 you mean? That's actually not killing the spotlights :) that's YouTube rendering at a lower framerate than the actual video. With things that blink rapidly (like those spotlights and like when X blinks after being damaged), YouTube videos can't display that rapid blinking, so those things may either disappear or appear to be completely solid. The spotlights are still there on the actual video, and in the game of course! I had to dodge around them.

Ur the 4th one I've asked, how do u do 3:26 if u keep on doing a dash slide instead?

[247BigDog]

@Sonicfan3468 To get the heart tank up there? I already got it (with just the dash slide) in one of my previous videos, the main Bubble Crab video in this playlist, at around 0:37 in that video. The key is to dash jump from the right spot, and to hit B as soon as you're able to kick off the floating platform. Practice makes perfect with those sorts of jumps.

@247BigDog Yeah, I figured that out when I ran to play it and finally kill those fucks. Got my hopes up for nothing....
