This run must be done when I had found some glitches in several months ago,But it seems not perfect to force the character into the walls in the past. I had found how to enter the corner more efficient before Tas the run,so I did this run and played as Rockman.

I bought "Lice Search", "Exit", "Shock Guard" in the first time.
The second times I bought "Counter Attack", Energy Saver", "Shock Guard",I didn't buy "H.speed charge" because of bolts wasn't enough.

Glitches

Ice wall is the most important weapon than others,there's no doubt. I only point out some unobvious tricks.

In general,when you jumped directly and used ice on the left-side block,it was impossible to touch the top ladder and grabbed.
But now we still can do it since I had found the block has a bad cllsion code.

The first closed to left wall.
The second dashed to right side.
The third you will find Rockman had risen a bit.
The fourth used ice after jumped.

Used ice to reach the next platform.

Avoided damage by rush.

Avoiding damage by someone it's something like in RM7(Rockman taken damage then Rush was safe in Iceman level).

After watched the WIP,I thought you might know the weapon of L.bolt could control up/down/left/right.
The place where had acicula and CD,in my originally project I planned usage Shock Guard at it,but I found usage L.bolt twice could pass-through the acicula without wasting Shock Guard and I could keep zip going on.

By the way,I had found a glitch to mess up the graph and shoot from erroneous position.

You need press button like follow

  1→+B
  2→+B+Y (burner"s weapon)
  3→+B
  4→+B
  5→+B
  6→+B
  7→+B
  8→+B
  9→+B
  10→+B
  11→+B
  12→+B
  13→
  14→+R (Tengu"s weapon)
  15→
  16→+R+Y (Astro"s weapon)

Note:The glitch doesn"t work when you had gotten M.card.
