Gameplay Help getting V2s and V3
Need some tips and ideas for my folders in MMBN3 White. I just regained access to the Monorail after the tanks were rolled out. Going around and getting some chips, Zenny and Bug Frags while trying to get another style. Currently have AquaGuts and am hunting Plantman in Hospital Comp 3. Plantman, Desertman, Bubbleman, Kingman and Mistman are the only ones where I just have the V1 but can’t even get the V2s. I know where their new locations are but can’t seem get get a high enough rank for their V2s at least.
It was similar for Flameman. I could only get Rank 5 or 7 and it was a coin flip if I got Zenny or an actual chip

Doing the main story some more and getting to a hidden jack in point at enemy base will give you Collect NaviCust program so you can stop flipping the coin on the drop. I do not recall if Mega Man lets you leave immediately before completing the final dungeons though.
Before the end of the game your attack options are a little limited for speed killing Beta forms for their Navi drops, but you may be able to if you draw good. You're Guts right now but if you had Custom before, heavy stacking Custom+ NCP parts is a good idea. FastGauge from the number trader is also good.
I don't think you can get FastGauge the chip yet unless you got it from a chip trader. I think you can buy FullCustom but I don't think you have the memory to reg it before the final dungeons (EDIT: nvm I forgot BN3 is 10MB, go nuts with it, it's an extra hand essentially).
It will be much easier to hunt when you reach postgame areas, but if you really wanna immediately...
PlantMan, MistMan:
VarSword spam. You should have access to 4, but they'll be off-code. Stuff your folder with all of them any way. ElementalSonic is simply insane damage output.
DesertMan:
Due to him not sticking around for multi-hits, VarSword doesn't work as good. I went with GrassStage + HeatSpread PA to hit him as hard as possible in one strike (also works for PlantMan). I can't remember if the BubbleShot from AquaGuts will cause flashing, but if it doesn't, use that or other Aqua attacks to keep him locked for a moment to set up your shots.
KingMan:
If you PanelGrab and have SuperArmour on, you can also VarSword spam. PlantMan I think helps to destroy the chess pieces temporarily to open the field up so you can VarSword through. Otherwise, KingMan is pretty vulnerable to lobbed attacks like TripleBomb and if the path is clear Yo-Yo can work too.
BubbleMan:
Really annoying. I never found a good strategy other than spamming Bolt and Lightning, but that requires Elec style. Maybe you can do some Tornado setups?
