nowhere and hit the enemies on their heads.

Not sure if it\'ll hit behind Megaman. Hits are evenly distributed if there
is more than one enemy.
Utilize: Geddon2. DEFINITELY Geddon2. Unless your enemies happen to have
AirShoes/Saito.BAT/Shield/Reflect equipped, they\'re screwed since
they can only sit in the only panel and eat the Shurikens.

500Barrier / 500 Barrier | Program Advance #26

touch you.

Range of Hit:

PPPPSP
PMPSHS
PPPPSP

Special legends:
H = Hit

Utilize: Although this P.A. IS time-freezing, the accuracy is still
important. Since it\'s armor-piercing, Prisms will just get

(Basic) Damage to all Enemy Panels. Blue\'s Slashes, although
with the different colors, are confirmed to be NOT Elemental.

PPPEEE

Despite where Megaman is, the P.A. hits the whole Enemy Area.
Utilize: Prism. DEFINITELY Prism. Prism in enemies\' Center Panel +
2xHero = OH SO VERY DEAD. Also, Atk+ Chips helps out too.

PrixPowr / Grand Prix Power | Program Advance #31
Brotherhood1 *-Brotherhood2 *-KingMan V5 K/MistMan V5 M/BowlMan V5 B (either one
of them would work)
Damage per Hit: 300

PMEEEE
PPEEEE

KingMan:

PPPPEP

Utilize: Cliched, but Prism helps out YET AGAIN. Prism in enemies\' Center
Panel + PrixPowr (with NO Atk+ Chips) = easy 1800 Damage.

------------------------------

5. Master Style P.A. (^5)

I know it\'s not right for a Program Advance to hag a unique section of this
FAQ, but since this P.A. is placed in #32 in the P.A. List in the game, this
should be the best place for it to be located.

and then start to attack the closest enemy 8 times, each time
with a different attack (Punch/Kick/WideSwrd) and different
Style Type and Element. (If the enemy died before 8 hits and
another enemy is still alive, Megaman will continue on the
assult on the next enemy) After the 8 hits (less than 8 times
if the enemy dies before 8 hits were sent; if there are multiple
enemies Megaman will go strike the next closest one until all
enemies die or all 8 hits were delivered) Megaman goes back to
his original location, charges up with different Style Elements
flashing through, stops at his current Style\'s color, and causes
a piercing explosion that hits the whole Battlefield.
Range of Hit:

EEEEEE
EMEEEE
EEEEEE

Note: the first 8 hits are based on the location of the closest enemy so it
won\'t
be shown here.
Utilize: Interestingly, this P.A. can\'t be too utilized, other than attaching
an Atk+ Chip in it.
