I noticed that a lot of people are having a rough time with Weapon X. He might seem annoying to fight at first, but he really isn't that bad if you break him down into 3 "phases".
1. The buildup phase:
This is when he starts building rage charges. Every time you hit him, he gets a charge. He also gets 10 charges from his sp1 and 5 charges from his sp2 (it's kind of hard to keep track of everything, so just assume he goes berserk after a special and back off to make sure he isn't unstoppable). This is also the phase he starts out in.
2. The berserk phase:
At 25 rage charges, he goes into berserk mode and becomes unstoppable for 4 sec. He can't be stunned and all of his attacks are unblockable. Don't worry, his charges will fall off over time (btw hitting him will still give him charges).
3. The chill phase:
When his rage charges are gone, he can't get any more charges for 20 sec (shorter if he's awakened), so this is the time to beat the s*** out of him before he goes into phase 1 again.
So basically, you can only parry him in phases 1 & 3. Dash back when he gets to phase 2 or else he'll combo you into oblivion when he goes unstoppable. Then, it's all about intercepting and baiting out his specials. He's really aggressive during phase 2, so you can safely backdraft intercept him for days (until phase 1 starts again). Oh, and he also regens a lot of the damage that you do to him, so it's going to be one heck of a long fight.
...And that's it! I hope this helped and may rng be in your favor so that you don't have to fight this madlad. This is based off of Seatin's guide, so check out his video if you need more help: https://youtube.com/watch?v=kVMwFuSonzk
