Before You Start
Mega Man Zero — Maverick Hunt
This guide covers Zero's full run: the Z-Saber, eight Maverick techniques copied one by one, and every Sub Tank, Weapon Tank and Heart hidden across the stages. Expect fast, close-range fights and a toolkit built entirely around the saber.
Difficulty:
Normal
Key Points
- Playstyle: Close-range Z-Saber combos plus copied Maverick techniques
- Techniques: 8 total — one Z-Saber technique per defeated Maverick
- Tanks: 4 total — 2 Sub Tanks (stored healing), 1 W-Tank (refills all weapon energy), 1 EX Item (passive: start with 4 lives)
Recommendations
- Each Maverick you beat hands Zero a new Z-Saber technique — Raijingeki, Kuuenbu, Kuuenzan, Ryuenjin and more.
- Kuuenbu (the mid-air double jump from Split Mushroom) unlocks most of the collectibles Zero can reach.
- Ryuenjin (the rising fire slash from Magma Dragoon) doubles as a tool — it burns wood and melts ice blocks between you and a pickup.
- Keep both Sub Tanks topped off before a boss run, and save Weapon Energy for the technique that cripples the fight.
