Mega Man X3 - How to get the Z Saber
In order to get the Z Saber you'll first and most importantly need to never let Zero die.
You'll need to kill two bosses first in order access to Vile's secret factory. Make sure one of these bosses is Crush Catfish because you'll need the Spinning Blades you get from him. After you've gotten that and cleared another boss you'll want to find the teleporter to Vile's Factory in Volt Catfish, Crush Crawfish or Blizzard Buffalo's stage. Kill Vile with the Spinning Blades, making sure he explodes and doesn't escape. Now the annoying part! You'll have to go and kill all the other bosses, collecting every item so that you have...
8 Hearts
8 subtanks
4 Ride Armors
4 Armor Upgrades
Any of the 5 chips, gold one is the best
After you've done all this you'll want to get to Doppler's Lab and reach the second stage. Clear almost the entire second stage until the very end where you'll come across a door which will lead to the mini boss. Switch to Zero here and kill the mini boss. You'll get a cutscene and when it's over you'll have what you're looking for!
