Dark Man 3

the third of the four Dark Man robots created by Dr. Wily to assassinate Mega Man in Mega Man 5. Dark Man 3 is a sniper type model, his right arm being a cannon able of rapid-firing energy projectiles at any angle. He lacks the electromagnetic barrier from Dark Man 2 and 4, but in exchange he can perform high jumps and his chest can fire ring shaped beams able to paralyze his enemies.

Overview
At a first glance, Dark Man 3 seems like a below-average buster class. Sure, his primary fire does 12 damage, and his altfire stuns people, but you lack movement options. From an average movespeed and jump, it seems like he has a lot lacking. That is, until you press item, and discover, that Dark Man 3 is the only character in this entire game to have access to a railgun. If you can see someone, you can shoot them. The world is your playground, but it's up to you to take advantage of it.

Main
Dark SMG/Dark Sniper

Dark SMG is Dark Man 3's intial form of attack upon spawning in. Characterized by DM3's silver railgun, this is a spread of buster shots that come out in bursts of five. Upon using item, it becomes a high powered sniper shot that deals more damage the longer it travels.

Alt
Stunner Rings/Sniper Rings

Dark Man 3's alt fire has him project 3 Stunner Rings from his chest. These are slow moving projectiles that deal 5 damage and stun any enemy they contact. Upon scoping in, it becomes a single projectile that moves extremely quickly.

Item
Iron Sights

Dark Man 3 will Scope in, decreasing your field of view, but zooming in on where you're currently looking. This helps to make more precise shots, oh, and did we mentiom it changes your SMG into a railgun yet?
