Verdict on the new Kampfer

It is a worse version of the Unit 5

Less armor, less boost, no weak point shooter, about the same speed, no shield, worse homing, same time, and less load cap. Gold gets a sturmfaust with 3 shots.

Yay?

The Dom: fires a pitifully 8 missiles. GG no re.

:laugh:

gold gets a faust if you care. But its a dom...

Best new suit of the 3 is the Norris Zaku I, finally we have a boxing zaku... also it's a mirror of the White Dingo GM stat and equipment wise, so everyone can pick up a cheap shotgun M grunt with spray shooter 3-5. Good value for 260 cost.

It's an exact mirror suit. Exact same hitbox/weapons/stats.

Feddy Zaku 2F2 is the exact same Zaku 2F2 thats been around the Zeon EX for a year and a half. I feel bad for the Zeon newcomers that don't have one of these, incredible value for 260 cost.

I think you made a rocket shooter one awhile back when we played in the tournament, the suit was and still is one of the best EX suits.

Congrats on grabbing the best trait on the Dwadge.

I think the optimal weapon set for this suit is the 10k bazooka F(The non-charged one), 420mm 8 rocket pod N, and Sturm F. Beam bazooka and missiles are nice for mid range, but this suit shines up close vs the enemy and has the stats to pull it off.

It can have a loadout where Rocket shooter can apply to all 3 weapons, and it can equip at least 2 of them which will guarantee a knockdown. Assuming max damage customize (Feddies deserve no less) The strongest combo is probably something like

Close the distance then open with:

Bazooka F(1210 damage) or Sturm F (1573 damage) either will knockdown even a grounded opponent

then finish them off with the Rocket pod volley for 1258 damage. The burst damage and splash is just nuts. This thing is seriously king of jaburo/texas tunnels with this loadout in my opinion.

I wouldn't run charge beam bazooka F on this setup since its only 998 damage on a direct hit (won't knockdown grounded enemies), though it is better in a prolonged shootout since it has good bullet speed and ammo.

RE Protokampfer, yeah you got the worst trait. If the suit had the load cap to pull off a loadout like heavy machine gun, shotgun M, 10k bazooka F without having poo poo balance it would be nuts.

But really you can only bring 2 of the 3 nice weapons on this suit... and there's no point going shotgun M + 10k bazooka since you may as well play the actual kampfer then...I guess going heavy machine gun and shotgun M only will make you a beast vs single target. But you wouldn't have much sway vs groups of enemies like the Pezun does.

Getting rocket shooter/range then running 10k bazooka and heavy machine gun would have been really nice though.

Spoilers:

The rockets are cute at best not enough damage. Only useful for finishing things off.
I've tried jaburo a few times with it. Eh...

Rockets don't impress me. Maybe lvl 5 it'll be something.

And yea the shotgun is a joke on that kampfer. Not to mention ti doesnt have the armor to deal in a fight.

As far as I know, only if you set the resolution to be the highest possible setting for your monitor:


Options third tab

Doesn't seem to go full screen if you're using a multiple monitor setup though because :japan:

I like how Bandai promotes base ratting with all their promotion requirements.



Anyways, not sure if it is worth holding Admiral rank when you need to average 500 points every game. Kind of just want Admiral for the sake of achieving it.

New EX next war:


White Dingo GM Cannon and Zaku II S Heavy equipment.

I hope the gold Zaku F2 appears as a side suit for Zeon since it hasn't made an appearance for players since the 0083 update.

Also, you can set suits as favourites:



As well as buffs for lesser used modules(Damage mitigation, bonus balance vs stagger/fall, etc). Makes it easier to build against weapons that stagger/knockdown.

Amazingly bad suits for us this time around

The Zaku IIS is garbage gets a medea and a bazooka maybe a shotgun.

A silver gelgoog of some kind nothing fancy or good. And a prototype zaku.

Bandai felt so bad for us they made it you get 1 dx ticket per loss even if you do well and 5x per win.

They really wanna let us know they donn't have a federation bias.

it definitely was the worst decision yet.

My feddie is now a few games away from gold at rank 18. I can only run 3 suits but I average like 400 points a game. Really feel over powered.

So I decided to make a point today.

I took my bronze tier feddie rank 18 and took him all the way to Gold tier in a day.

I did it with 3 units cause thats all my deck could field.

A gold alex, a silver alex, and some 60s grunt unit.

I was averaging anywhere from 200-600 points a game. I'm stating this again cause I can't believe how loving easy fed side is. Like christ Bandai doesn't know how to do balance.
