E-Blade

E-Blade, abbr. for "Electric Blade", also known as Denjin (電刃) in Japan, is the special technique that Zero learns after defeating Squid Adler in Mega Man X5. By pressing UP on the D-Pad and the FIRE button while Zero's on the ground, he will jump up diagonally with an electrified Z-Saber blade that leaves streams of electricity behind.

E-Blade is Izzy Glow, U-555, Prism Guardian, Shadow Devil and Rangda Bangda W's red eye component's weakness. Sigma is also weak to this technique as well, but only in the first fight against him.

Damage Data Chart
Damage values in units in Mega Man X5.


 * For E-Blade, the first number is damage inflicted from the actual electric blade; the second number is damage inflicted from the streams of electricity that follow it.


 * For Rangda Bangda W's Sun component, since the floor becomes lined with spikes when Zero fights it, he is only allowed to preform few of his techniques and Saber slashes under normal circumstances. If the player intentionally makes Zero make contact with the Sun component and take damage, however, they can actually use E-Blade by taking advantage of the temporary invincibility to the spikes before it wears off and gets immediately killed from the spikes thereafter.
