A) Introduction
|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|
The main part of this game, is folders. Folders are basically the best thing in
the game, and people can spend hours making folders. Every folder is unique in
it's own way, and each can be played with great style.
This FAQ introduces great folders that do not need any rare chips. They can
still be played with good style and are just as powerful, and you can win
netbattles easily with them. Please bare in mind when reading this FAQ, that
there is no perfect folder. Each folder has it's flaw, weakness, or whatever.
This FAQ contains a lot of Spoilers. If you don't give a **** about it,
please read on.

B) Changes from Battle Network 4
|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|
B1) Program Advances
The system has changed in Battle network 5. In the earlier series, you could
use multiple copies of the same program advance in each battle. Meaning you
can no longer base your folder's strategy on one program advance. For example,
if you have 4 copies of the chips to create the Program AdvanceLifesword, you
can only use one. The rest of the swords will turn into useless crap, since
you cannot form the same Program Advance twice in a battle. Why did Capcom
decide to do this? I have no idea. But this does make Netbattling a bit more
challenging. Yet, it also makes folder building harder now. Which is why there
are less folders than in all the other Battle Network series.
(Bass does not agree :P)
B2) Liberation Missions
This is a new system that's introduced in the game. This is a mission that
involves strategy and skills. In liberation missions, You get a number of
navis on your team. And you get to get to use each one team member, and they
all have different abilities. The missions are kind of annoying, but they are
quite fun in the end.
B3) Dark Chips
Dark Chips were somethig new that was introduced in Battle Network 4. Dark
Chips were Battle Chipsthat dealt a great amount of damage in one hit. But
these chips have their side effects. For each dark chip you use, you lose 1
hp permanently. Aside from that, you lose some Karma(explained in E5). Making
Megaman's soul darker and darker each time, finally, making him 'evil'. In
Battle Network 4, Dark Chips would appear at the bottom of your screen when
ever Megaman's emotional status turned to Anxious(section E1). But the
system has changed in Battle Network 5. Now, you actually obtain them as
chips, and you can put them in your folder! cough* chaosunisonn cough*.
B4) Chaos Unisons
As stated in B3, you can put Dark Chips in your folder. You can also perform
Soul unisons with Dark Chips. These are known as Chaos Unisons. When you
preform Chaos Unison, your charged attack becomes the Dark Chip you sacrificed
to preform it!! But there's a catch. When you are charging for a charge shot,
the energy ball flashes from green to purple, and it keeps repeating. You can
only fire a charged shot when the energy ball is glowing purple. But if you
release the B button when the energy ball is glowing green, three things will
happen:
1) You lose your Chaos Unison
2) Megaman DS suddenly pops out of your body.
3) He and your opponent start an allied assult, and
you get yourself PWNED.
PS. Chaos Unisons only last one turn, or else it will be too cheap.
B5) Random Synching
In this version, you can no longer gain Full Synchro(E2) randomly by using
multi-hitting chips or performing multiple deletes.

|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|
===============================================================================
|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|
C) Proper Folder Construction
|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|
C1) Basis
This is the MOST important thing in a folder. ANY folder. People who are new
to the series tend to throw in a bunch of half decent chips, and call it a
good folder. Well, it's not even half way there. A good folder, or at least
any folder needs a basis, or a main strategy. A folder with:
Doublepoint,Supervulcan,atk+30,atk+10,atk+10
with Full Synchro(E2), AKA Silver Bullet combo, would have that, as their
folder basis. So the rest of the chips in their folder would be to support
that Combo.
C2) Support
Support would be the chips that make the main combo/basis more easier to pull
off. For example, in a Silver Bullet folder, you might want to put some panel
grabs inside, so you can row lock them, making it much easier to hit them with
your combo. Support is very important in your folder. It increases the
fluidity and makes your strategy or combo easier to pull off. A folder will
run very poorly if it doesn't have any support inside.
C3) Defense
Defense is also very important. When you are battling against a human
player, you cannot expect to dodge all their attacks. Unlike the Navis
ingame, humans actually have a brain. Some people think that they can simply
dodge any attack, well the truth is, there are alot of attacks that you cannot
dodge, even if you are extremely skilled at the game. What? You can dodge
everything? Prove it.
Wideshot from the middle panel, dodge that.
Varsword using Sonic boom from the middle panel, dodge
that.
Widesword from the middle panel when you're column
locked, dodge that.
You get my point don't you? Defense is needed to protect yourself when you
are trying to execute a combo or set up your strategy. Some defensive chips
would be: Invis, Blinder, Barrierr, Life Aura.
C4) Fluidity.
Some people, usually those new to the game, think that a good folder is just
a bunch of powerful chips thrown together, well it's not. A Good folder,
has to have 8/10 or above in the fluidity section. It helps very much to limit
the chip code down to 1, unicode. But, a good folder not only has to be
uni-coded, it also needs to have a fluid strategy, meaning that the chips in
your folder don't clash and ruin the fluidity.
C5) Combos
A combo is when you use 2 or more chips together and they have an amazing
effect. For example, if you use a Rockcube chip, it does almost nothing. But
if you use an Airshot at it, it shoots the Rockcube down the row, and it can
hit the opponent, dealing 200 damage. This is called a combo. 2 useless chips
can be very powerful when used in the correct way.
C6) Flinching
Flinching is when you use a chip, it hits them, and then they become
transparent for a few seconds. This is flinching. You should always consider
this when building a folder. You don't want to have too many flinching chips
inside. This can cause your folder to run very slowly.
C7) Cosmo Prison
Now, many people have been trying to build folders around this PA. But this PA
is not a good one. Why? Because Unenhanced, CosmoPris deals 540 max, 360 min.
On the other hand, CosmoMan (not CosmoManSP, but just plain old CosmoMan) can
deal 210-350 damage, and one Asteroid3 can deal more damage than the entire PA
(Meggido) - and fire-element too. Therefore CosmoPris sucks. Although it does
do decent damage powered up, PAs are not generally meant to be powered up. The
best possible powerup for Cosmo Prison is DblPoint + CosmoPris + Atk+30
(remember, CosmoPris is three chips), and that means that each hit deals
60+60+30 damage, or 150. 150*6=900. 150*9=1350.
Sure, with Full Synchro, that reaches 2700, but be honest with yourself, is it
really going to happen? First of all, you would HAVE to get Full Synchro the
turn before you use CosmoPrison; but since CosmoPris powered up is five chips
that means you're going to have to get REALLY lucky with Custom+1 or Custom+2
(can't use SearchSoul or NumberSoul but you need to get CosmoPrison and a chip
or two for Full Synchro and have them all ready to use).
Now, a SuperVulcan with DblPoint and Atk+30 (and some form of paralysis)...
Let's see how that measures up. 60+10+30=100. 100*12=1200 max - for THREE
chips. Which means, of course, that Full Synchro is that much easier to get.
Or maybe a Meteors3 with no powerups at all, courtesy of Megiddo? Around
800 damage? 1600 with Full Synchro (a bit hard to pull off but it CAN happen)?
Really, the only thing you're getting out of CosmoPris that you can't get out
of anything else is the time-freeze, and it's really not worth the work and
luck it takes to set up.
C8) Body Guard
Many people have also tried to base their folders on this PA called Body Guard.
Although it can do 3200 MAX damage, it's still a bad PA. PAs are not meant to
be powered up, they are meant to deal some decent damage by themselves. And
the components of the PAs can do more damge than the PA itself. The Muramasa
can do 999 MAX damage. And the Anti-Navi chip can steal one of the oponents
navi chips and take it as your own. And the fact that Body Guard Time Freezes
to announce the action, which makes it flawed, since you can Time Freeze
Counter it.
C9) Holy Dream
There was an extremely powerful Combo in BN4 called the Final Judgement. Which
was Holy Dream plus alot of power ups. This type of folder is no longer
effective due to the lack of support and the
"one of the same PA per battle rule". This folder used Life Swords as support
in the previous version. Now, you can't anymore.

D) Soul Unisons/Double Soul
|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|
Soul unison was a new system that was introduced in Battle Network 4. You can
perform Soul Unison by sacrificing a chip of the corresponding element. For
example, the element of Magnet Soul is Elec, so you would sacrifice an Elec
chip to use Magnet Soul. Soul unisons give you the look as if you just fused
with the Navi. Soul Unison allows you to use the Navi's ability for 3 turns.
You cannot gain an emotional status while in a Soul.

E) Megaman's Emotional Status
|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|
Megamans emotion is very important in a battle. It will change, depending on
how well you are operating him.
E1) Anxious
When you are operating Megaman very poorly, his emotion will turn to Anxious.
For a more accurate description, receive a large amount of damage (200+),
although that may also cause the Anger(E3) status. Being constantly hit with
chips while not fighting back can cause you to enter the Anxious status (time
stopping multi hitting chips work best). This status prevents Megaman from
performing Soul Unison or Chaos Unison. There are two ways to leave Anxious
mode:
1) Keep using Recovery Chips
2) Counter, and enter Full Synchro(E2)
E2) Full Synchro
Full Synchro is a status in which the next chip you use deals double damage.
This x2 effect takes place after attack boosters. In the previous game,
entering Full Synchro can be done by repeatedly hitting your opponent
(random synching), or countering your opponent. In this game entering Full
Synchro is a little bit harder to accomplish. Countering is the only way to
enter Full Synchro without the Emotion Bug. Full Synchro can be on even after
battle. There are two ways to leave Full Synchro:
1) Use a chip
2) Get hit
E3) Anger
Being hit several times in can cause the Anger status. Anger gives Megaman
the SuperArmor effect, and the next chip used deals double damage the same
way as Full Synchro. Unlike Full Synchro, it does not last after battle.
There are two ways to lose Anger:
1) Use a chip
2) Wait a few seconds (take some time to chill)
E4) Dark
Using a dark chip will taint Megaman's soul with evil permanently remove 1
HP from Megaman’s base HP, and glitch him for the remainder of the battle.
In addition to those effects, your Karma shall decrease In this status,
Megaman gains a one time Undershirt effect for that battle. When Megaman
reaches 1 HP, he turns into Dark Mega (for example use DarkInvis or
Chaos Shadow charged shot). When in this status, Soul Unison and other
status effects cannot be done. Turning to the dark side is not worth it
anymore as you can only have three dark chips in your folder.
E5) Karma System
Every Megaman has 1000 Karma when you begin the game (1000 is max).
Using 1-3 dark chips in a single battle shall reduce Megaman karma by 1.
Reaching I believe 980 karma shall allow you to start battles with the
Dark status. Meaning entering 20 battles and using at least 1 dark chip
in each of those battles will earn you the right to use DS chips(F2) and
other chips of darkness such as BlackWing and BugCharge. Not using a dark
chip in a battle will increase your karma by 1. Having the SoulCleanser
NCP installed and not using a dark chip in a battle shall increase your
Karma by 2.

F) SP/DS Navi Chips
|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|
In addition to Navi chips there are two other versions
of Navi chips: SP and DS chips.
F1) SP Navi Chips
SP Navi chips are special chips that get stronger depending on how fast the
respective Omega navi was S-ranked under 30 seconds. For single hitting SP
Navi chips, power is increased by 10 for every 2 seconds the Omega navi was
S-ranked under 30 seconds. For multi-hitting SP chips, same rules apply but
power is increased by 5 instead of 10. SP chips do maximum damage if the Omega
Navi was S-ranked under 10 seconds (+100 for single hitting, +50 for
multi hitting). There are 2 SP chips that have their own way of being powered
up: RollSP and DjangoSP.
RollSP is powered up by 5 for every HolyPanel on your side of the field. 10
HolyPanels means it does maximum damage (3x80 damage).
DjangoSP is powered up by 10 for every turn the chip has been in your custom
menu. 10 turns means it does maximum damage (250 damage).
F2) DS Navi Chips
DS Navi chips are special chips that may only be used by those with 980 karma
or below. Meaning you must start a battle with Dark status in order to use
DS Navi chips. DS Navi chips increase in power for everytime you flinch.
Single hitting DS chips increase by 10. Multi-hitting DS chips increase
by 5. Flinching 10 times in battle makes the DS chips do maximum
damage (+100 for single hitting, +50 for multi-hitting).

G) EZ Folders
|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|<|>|
There is a small problem with folders in the RFF/FFF. As much as they are the
best folders made, getting a particular chip for those folders is a rather
large nuisance. This FAQ was created for those less fortunate to obtain chips
such as AreaGrab *, Blinder *, NumberBall * and etc. There shall be quite a
selection of folders to use, and some of these may not be as powerful as those
in the RFF/FFF, but they are actually fun to use since most netbattles don't
end within 2-4 turns. These are casual play folders and are easy to build if
you ask BassHimToDeath for chip locations. The folders shall and must be
labeled as Netbattle, Ingame, S-Rank, and/or Liberation. It also shall and
must be stated on whether or not a folder is Soul based.

2 Bugbomb A
4 Voltz 3 A
2 Geddon 3 A
1 Anubis A
1 Darkthunder M
4 Thunder*
3 Seaseed*
3 Slowgauge*
3 Areagrab A
3 Blinder A
3 Invis*
1 Full cust* [Preset]
-------------------------
Preffered souls: Magnet
Strategy: Go into magnet soul as quickly as you can by sacrificing a thunder*.
Now throw a sea-seed. There. You have finished your setup. Stand in your
middle panel and fire a Voltz 3 after charging it. It's very hard to miss
with this chip, as long as you stand in your middle panle when firing it. If
it hits, it should do a nice 560 damage. This combocan be done four times.
The Poisan Pharoah PA can be used to speed things up. The slow gauges are
also there to slow down each turn, making poisan more painful.And since
you've got a geddon 3, you can time your numberball very accurately.
Pros:
Poisan+a 560 damage that can be done 4 times.
Very little setup requiered.
Even if Magnet soul is gone, you can still win easily
Cons:
Poisan Pharoah and Voltz3 can't be on the field together
Tomahawk soul folders can PWN you.

Prefferd Souls: Magnet, Chaos Magnet
------------------------------------
Strategy:
Go MagnetSoul, toss a SeaSeed, and you are set. Now for damage, toss
a VDoll, on your opponent back column, and let loose a charged up SpShake3.
The SpShake itself will deal 400 damage, and an extra 400 when it hits the
VDoll. PanelGrab to get out of any locking and the ToadmanSP and DarkThunder
are for extra damage.
As for the Bolted Mines, same strategy basically, but with this folder, you
are trying to panic the enemy with Mines, SPShake3, and Fan. The opponent
won't have a second to move in for their combo.
Pros
-decent amount of damage
-fluid
-SeaSeed improves accuracy as well as increase damage
Cons
-lack of VDoll damage makes the other SpShakes more
required
-fastgauge makes you lose time to charge up the
SpShakes
-soultime +1 should be used

Preffered Souls: Chaos Number
Strategy:
The main focus of the folder is to toss a CannonBall to break the back middle
row, after which you drop a BoyBomb in front of the hole (push it with the
buster if necessary) at the end of the enemy area and use a Pulsar3 to Pulsate
off it paralyzing the enemy and leaving the open for the Bombs impending
explosion. The RockCubes are for CosmoManSP's Poltergeist effect. CannonBall
is to put a hole in the back panel in the middle row so the BoyBomb will stay
in the middle panel and hit all enemy panels. ColonelSP, CosmoManSP, and
CrossDive are all support damage, and Dark Plus aids CosmoManSP's Power.
PanelGrabs make the Boybomb easier to place and limits enemy movement.
Pros:
-Good defense
-Fluid
-Enough support damage
Cons:
-Not accurate if your opponent steals panels before
you use PanelGrab
-Can be a bit slow to pull off if unlucky
-Barriers and auras will ruin strategy

Preffered Souls: Proto
Strategy:
Just use a SlowGauge and enter ProtoSoul. Use several charged up swords and a
CustomSword last for some good damage in a single turn. Life sword is there
for an extra 400 damage. Moonblade 3 litterally can't miss, just Step sword
from the front panel and let Moon blade 3 off.
Pros:
-bleeding from the MoonBlades
-very fluid and accurate
-great amount of damage
Cons:
-LongBlades may miss
-more ProtoSoul folders
-getting locked can get you killed

Prefferd Souls: Chaos Search & Search
Strategy:
First turn, enter SearchSoul and PanelGrab the middle panels, then FullCust.
Shuffle out for the PoisonPharoh PA and place it on your opponent middlepanel
to rowlock. From there, hit them with whatever you have left and use the extra
Geddon3 for more poisoning. SlowGauge to help the CustomBolts and prolong
poisoning.
Pros:
-good against Invis and Barrier/Aura users
-enough support damage
-fluid
-maximum accuracy
Cons:
-FloatShoes NCP needed to stop draining from poison
panels
-shuffling does not guarentee the chips needed to win
-relies on a PA for most damage

Prefferd Souls: Magnet
Strategy
First turn, enter MagnetSoul, toss a SeaSeed and any other non attack chips you
chose, go back into the Custom Menu. Activate SlowGauge when you can and hit
your opponent with the most shocking chips. PanelGrabs help with those that
steal panels from you. If used properly, you can completely lock your opponent
with the MagnetSoul abilities: Back B and MagBolt. Much practice isn't even
needed to master this pretty cheap combo.
Pros
-2 charged up Volts with Ocean Panels deal enough
damage to kill
-SlowGauge helps with Invis users
-really cheap combo
Cons
-requires a bit of a set up
-can be inaccurate against certain folders
-TomahawkSoul PWNS this folder

PreferredSouls: Colonel, Number
Strategy: AreaSteal the enemy once. Once that is done, put a RockCube just
behind the, Arms Change with a Pulsar3, than Pulsate the cube, than while
the enemy is paralyzed quickly use any CactusBall Chips followed by
DrillArms and Attack+ Chips add to the damage level. The ShadeMen work
excellently with the Paralyze Trick. Number Soul can also be used to sift
through some chips to prepare the setup for the strategy. Full Custom for
Chip scrummaging. BigNoise could be used as a finishing move but is not
recommended if the enemy has enough HP to survive. Well that explains just
about everything about this folder. Custom+3, and ChargeMax strongly advised.
Basic Field Setup:
[0][0][0][0][1][1]
[0][0][0][0][3][2]
[0][0][0][0][1][1]
0=Your Panels
1=Enemy Panels
2=Fanfare Trumpet
3=RockCube
Pros:
+ All Non-Flinching damage
+ The opponent will be paralyzed for about 3/4's of the match, thus
hindering enemy resistance
+ Utilizes Colonel Souls abilities (actually only one ability)
+ FastGuage no longer a threat
+ BigNoise could be used as a finisher
+ Anything else I missed
Cons:
- Requires a bit of setup
- ChargeMaxNCP required
- Anything else I missed
