REX-2000

REX-2000, piloted by Mad Joey, is the sub-boss of the first Doppler Stage in Mega Man X3. It is a Ride Armor based on D-Rex.

REX-2000 attacks by firing shots and small homing missiles at X. The room it appears has a spiked ceiling that is slowly descending. If the player takes too long to destroy the sub-boss, the ceiling will eventually destroy it, first taking the pilot, making the machine stop, then REX-2000 itself.

If Zero is well, he will appear in the beginning of the battle and tries to stop the descending ceiling, stopping it after REX-2000 is destroyed. If Zero is out of action, a ceiling switch at the end of the room will impose a "time limit" for X, blocking his path and making the ceiling reach him unless it is destroyed. The switch's weak point is Triad Thunder.
