Illumina

Illumina (ビッグ・ジ・イルミナ) is a giant Reploid sub-boss from Mega Man X6. The project for Illumina's construction was suspended, but Infinity Mijinion proceeded with its construction in Mega Man X6. Illumina came under the influence of the Nightmare. When X (or Zero) enter the Weapons Facility, he is attacked by Illumina.

Strategy
There are two large cables with a len on them sending energy to Illumina, these are its only weak spots. Using the Meteor Rain or Ensuizan will interrupt its attacks and make the battle a lot easier. Illumina attacks from the background by shooting large yellow energy balls from its eyes, and fires faster when the player reaches the first cable. After destroying the cable, Illumina's head floats and uses a red aiming laser from its eyes that homes in on the player so that three Hover Gunner-like robots can fire on them. When the player reaches the second cable, Illumina's head returns to its body and the three robots leave, laser-firing machines will then appear on each sides of the screen. When the second cable is destroyed, Illumina collapses.

Trivia

 * Illumina is accidentally reffered as female by Ininity M. As he said in dialogue:Infinity Mijinion:...Don't say you destroyed my sweet Illumina... 

X: ''I destroyed such a dangerous Reploid!! ''

Infinity Mijinion: ''No! I was still conducting a test or two on  her ...! I wanted to use  her  to destroy all the idiots! Now I'm angry, and that means you're dead! ''
