Klaymoor, known as Bancoscus (バンコスカス Bankosukasu) in Japan, is Bola's brother[1] and a veteran air pirate that appears in Mega Man Legends 2. His old age seems to be catching up with him, but he still seems to be a tough fighter and is determined to find the Mother Lode. He has a blaster arm and tough armor that is weak against the Drill Arm.

Klaymoor first appears in the beginning of the game disguised as a reporter inside the Sulphur-Bottom, where he is gathering information about the four keys needed to find the Mother Lode, and calls his partner to help find them. While in Manda Island, he asks Bola to search for the key in the Manda Ruins while he check out another island. MegaMan meets him twice in the Nino Ruins, but Klaymoor had to stop when he had back pain and asked Bola to help him. Klaymoor and Bola were last seen in Calinca helping the Bonne family and Glyde Gang, but they ultimately decide that between fighting MegaMan and dealing with both Glyde and the Bonnes that the treasure is simply not worth it, leaving them to their own ventures.

Strategy[]

Klaymoorscreencap

Klaymoor on Manda Island

Nino Ruins 5F (Key Room)[]

Klaymoor will confront MegaMan after getting the key. He only has two attacks here, shooting a round of machine gun bullets in three directions and shooting out homing blue sparks that will stun MegaMan Volnutt (the Light Barrier will block this effect). While circling him might be a good strategy, he has a tendency to predict where MegaMan is going with how fast he changes direction (i.e he will catch up to MegaMan and the player might run straight into a stream of bullets). A fully-powered Drill Arm will end the match in seconds.

Nino Ruins 1F (First Room with exit)[]

Klaymoor blocks the way to the exit ladder this time. Aside from the above attacks, he can now throw a pink homing beam that will knock out MegaMan if hit, two laser beams from his two hands (similar to MegaMan Juno, but would still hit MegaMan even if he jumps) and floating red bombs that would float in the air and can be made to home in on MegaMan. It is recommended to keep close to him and use the Drill Arm when there is an opportunity.

Trivia[]

  • Klaymoor's name in the English Mega Man Legends 2 instruction manual uses his Japanese name, Bancoscus.
  • During the opening scene of Mega Man Legends 2, Klaymoor wears civilian clothing over his armor. As Tron, Teisel, and Glyde are dressed in normal clothing instead, this implies the majority of Klaymoor's body is mechanical in nature.
  • His English name probably comes from claymore, which is a large, two-handed, double-edged sword. It is also the name of an explosive device similar to a landmine.
  • Klaymoor is 230 cm tall.[2]
  • The theme that plays when facing him is a different variant of the theme that plays when fighting Bola in the Manda Ruins.
