Weapons
X's arm cannon and every Special Weapon copied from a defeated Maverick, with what each one is actually good for.
X-Buster
X-Buster
X's arm cannon, standard issue and always available. Tap to fire a weak plasma shot, or hold the button to charge a much stronger blast — the charged shot is your bread and butter until you start copying Maverick weapons.
