[edit] Rankings

Within the Maverick Hunters is a set group of rankings to determine not just how powerful a Hunter is, but also to determine how efficient they are. Mega Man X5 and Mega Man X6 are the first two games to have Hunter ranks, and shall be used here. Each game from MMX5 onward has different criteria for obtaining ranks.

  • Rank F: Starting rank in the Mega Man Zero series.
  • Rank E: Only used in Mega Man Zero.
  • Rank D: Starting rank in Mega Man X5 and X6.
  • Rank C
  • Rank B: Mega Man X's original rank, due to his hesitation for battle.
  • Rank A
    • In Mega Man Zero 2 and 3, this is the lowest required (the highest being S) ranking for Zero to learn a Boss' EX skill.
  • Rank S: Only used in Mega Man Zero and Mega Man X: Command Mission. In MMZ, this is the highest rank Zero can obtain, and in MMXCM, Mega Man X, Zero and Axl all share this rank. Said to be the highest rank of the newer (Mega Man X7, X8, and Command Mission) Mega Man X games.
  • Rank SA: SA is short for Special A, and is Zero's current rank, as was Sigma's rank when he was still with the Maverick Hunters. In an alternate ending of Mega Man X5, Mega Man X obtains this rank and matches power with his fallen (and forgotten) comrade Zero.
  • Rank GA: Stands for Great or Grand A. This rank is associated with Mega Man X and Zero's two-time nemesis Dynamo, implying that he was strong enough to be given an official Hunter rank.
  • Rank PA: Stands for Perfect A. Notoriously hard to get in Mega Man X5.
  • Rank UH: Stands for Ultimate Hunter. Being the highest rank a Hunter can receive, it is extremely hard to get, and only the most powerful and cunning of Reploids can achieve it.
    • In X6, X and Zero can obtain this rank by collecting 9999 DNA souls. This rank allows them to equip up to 5 parts (which is the maximum limit for each character).
