Both ray splasher and spinning blade hurt Vile for 2 points of damage, meaning I don't need to resort to using the X-buster. I did make one change in Prower's route, and the change is going into Neon Tiger's stage, then going into Volt Catfish's stage to fight Vile. Yes, I have to make a detour and kill Vile to collect it, but I'm almost positive the time it takes to beat the bosses without the Beam Sabre more than makes up for it. I collect the Beam Sabre to cut down time on the bosses. I pick up the dash boots because they make some jumps easier and save time in specific areas (elevator section in Blast Hornet's stage). I even copied the route down to the items used: Dash boots and Beam Sabre. Beam Sabre not only saves a ton of time on the bosses, it also makes fighting Sigma a LOT easier. I am almost positive this is the fastest route possible.Ģ. This might sound kind of lame, but I took the route from Prower's time attack on Bisqwit's site. You might be wondering what path/items I used for this run. Available in 3 versions: low quality, normal quality, and 60fps high quality. Single-segment speed run of Mega Man X3 done on January 4 2005.
