Blade Armor

The Blade Armor (ブレードアーマー) is an armor focused on mobility and using the Z-Saber (which physically adapts itself into X's buster, rather than a separate entity). The most significant feature is an upgraded air-dash called 'Mach Dash'. If the jump or dash buttons are pressed while X is airborne, X will freeze mid-air until you release the button or after about five seconds from holding the buttons. After this, he will perform a quick air dash that covers a lot of distance and damages enemies upon contact. You can air-dash vertically or horizontally, a feature from Mega Man X3, and you can also air-dash down.

This armor's charged shot can differ. Normally firing the blast will produce a plasma projectile similar albeit smaller and weaker to the Plasma Shot of the Force Armor/Ultimate Armor, but if it is held, X will attack with an upgraded Z-Saber slash that covers a wider range than a normal Z-Saber slash and can destroy certain enemy projectiles when slashed. X will also not move while in mid-air and when clinging onto walls when he uses this move. The Blade Armor's Giga Attack is a very large slash. If executed in the air, two giant waves of energy will materialize and be fired off of the slash. The waves become more powerful when hit from a distance.
