@Celdrach
You have to do quick taps at the jump button in order to economize enough jet power on the Ride Armor. Do not keep the jump button pressed like you normally do.

Thank you for this 12 years later never knew it could be done but took me 20 minutes to do it and I did. Your right you have to tap X a few times and it works! Hope your still around to see my thank you for this.

@@christopherballesteros-cy4tq Cheers mate :)

+MotokoZeratul Sure! :D
First you need the fire weapon from Flame Stag and the buster upgrade from the Light Capsule in Wheel Gator. I will assume you know how to get both.
Now, in Crystal Snail, you don't even need the ride armor at all. What you need to do is fully charge your flame weapon, release it to start a flame dash at just the right distance from the boss area, then quickly dash under the crystal and dash jump over the wall to the right of the boss. If you did it correctly, the boss won't spawn correctly and you can just continue on past the mini boss.
Note: I speedrun Mega Man X2, so I know a lot of advanced tricks like neon jumps and stuff like that. I hope my instructions helped you!

+RetroMegabyte Thanks for the answer.Yeah i know how to get both :DAnd yes, your instructions sure helped. I'll try to do that tomorrow. Thanks again mateMMX2 is one of my favorite and most played games and i'll check your channel and speedruns :)

[@framesabervr7461]

Not that it matters, if you know how to skip the mini boss altogether.

[@MotokoZeratul]

+RetroMegabyte is there a way to skip the mini boss? I don't know how. Please explain.
