This is part of a Minimalist No-Damage playthrough of Mega Man X2. This means the following constraints:

- X takes no damage.
- The only allowed weapon is the X-Buster.
- No items of any kind may be obtained (upgrades, heart / sub tanks, etc).
- In addition, I've opted to keep a decent pace so that the videos are enjoyable to watch :)

The only really noteworthy part of this stage is the mini-boss, and it's a real pain for X-Buster only / no damage. Get comfortable with jump-firing, and spend the entire fight keeping your eyes on the bouncing laser beams -- you'll need to move regularly in order to avoid them. Beyond that, the stage is fairly easy; just watch out for bats.

The hardest part of the Crystal Snail fight is avoiding the Crystal Hunter shots. Usually the best move is to duck under the highest-arcing one, though sometimes it's better to jump over all three. You'll also need to really keep moving if / when he slows down your movement, in order to stay a few steps ahead (since he'll likely charge at you in his shell once he slows things down).
