Megaman Zero: Mission 2C (Protect Factory)

Protect Factory (1/2)

 "Thanks to you, we've gained control of the factory. But I don't think

we can hold it forever... Can you go and check the factory for me?"

Wow. Vague mission summary is vague. Anyhoo, we have a boss battle right off the bat.

Hidden Phantom

Weakness: None

Reward: Cyber Elf

Phantom has an attack where he will dash at you and try to slash you with a sword, simply dash-jump over him to avoid this. He'll also throw a large shuriken at you, this can also just be jumped over. If it is sideways it will fly toward you, then fly back to Phantom and he will jump on it, flying around dropping kunai to try to hit you. If the shuriken is upright it will split diagonally into four kunai, you can dodge it by just jumping straight up.

If he creates clones of himself, then hitting one of the false phantoms will cause a Pantheon Hunter to pop out and Phantom will try to jump on your head.

For his EX Skill he will gather energy and then turn the whole screen black, making him invisible. He will throw kunai at you from the shadows, so just pay attention to where they are coming from and fire charged buster shots in that direction.

Hafmarda [1000 EC] 

Get this for defeating Phantom.

Stickon (1/1)

Get this for defeating 5 Garm enemies (there are only 3 in the mission).

Now we have three minutes to go through the entire factory and deactivate eight bombs by stabbing them with our sword. My preferred way for getting in is climbing the buildings outside and going in through the vents. There's a 1up in here and it will also bring you to the first bomb (1/8). Take the elevator down and deactivate the other two bombs in plain sight (3/8). 

You'll see the next bomb (4/8) as you pass under a small ledge on the Carrier Arms, and the next one is up on a squared area that contained the capsule holding the Winkie cyber elf (5/8). 

When you pass by a beam that hangs down lower than the others, jump up and wall-climb to another bomb (6/8). Drop back down onto a carrier and take it to the end, then climb up the ladder.

The next bomb (7/8) is on top of a beam between two electric spikes. The final bomb (8/8) is on the wall two rooms before where you fought the Orochi Arm, up a ladder from the top-left section of the Carrier area.

And then this mission is done!

Post Mission

As with the previous factory mission, if you go back through after clearing this one, you can obtain a (relatively) easy 512 EC.
