I kept Aida in it for a good while; I was coming at it from the other angle of needing a unit to give her, and having a decent long-range attack for her to Charge with but not missing out on anything Newtype-dependent made it a solid match.

Aida was my first thought. Her unit is really not much to write home about but cheap Charge is good. I don't want to put any of the top tier pilots in it because they usually benefit from their own machines. I think I may stick Seabrook in the Hi-nu when I get there.

Char doesn't have anything unique in either of his machines so feel free to stick him in whatever. The Nightengale can be an absolute monster with a good Newtype though, its obscene. Seabook is pretty meh no matter what but he can do okay in the Hi-Nu since he has innate hit and run. That's about all he has going for him though.

In a franchise where they regularly do goofy cross-dimensional poo poo, ignore canonical character deaths, and create events like an Infinitely Large Chirico Cuvie Killing The Anti-Spiral With A Pistol, I am 1000% certain that they can make up some bullshit excuse for Build Fighters to work. "How are we going to do this" is pretty low on the list of things keeping a series out considering we got Hatsune Miku. I mean the current game has as a foundational aspect of the setting "It's magic".

Just have Nine or someone be all "oh yeah sure we made a factory that makes building this poo poo as easy as gunpla" and now you got the Build Fighter and Keroro peeps onboard no problem.

So I'm only just playing V, and I'm stuck trying to decide the last TAC Customise option. So far I've taken SP Regen, TAC Point Bonus and Critical Boost, and now I can't pick between the remaining final options: +20 SP would fit my general playstyle of relying on Spirits, but in a game with natural regen and upgradable accuracy it's not the biggest help. Incredibly useful, but not a must-have. +1 ExC doesn't seem like the hugest benefit, but it isn't nothing, plenty of time i've been 1 ExC short of doing what I want. Also it synergises well with Critical Boost. +10 Will seemed like the weakest option to me at first, but a lot of people have spoken highly of the benefit of accessing all attacks and getting to Super Mode early. Are there any elements I'm missing here? My playstyle is generally 'Rush at enemy, rely on spirits for survival, then group up for tactical stuff later'.

+1 ExC gives you 2 starting once someone is a Great Ace which means you can boost or be 1 bop away from multiaction or whatever. +10 Will is super strong and you can't gently caress it up, +1 ExC is also super good, but in X it is the #1 de facto best choice because of a skill that starts you with +2 so you can multiaction from the start. ExC is the pro choice for smart dudes who want maximum potential and options.

It's pretty hard to actually get turn 1 multi action trains rolling on expert in X without any morale because of the sheer amount of HP and armor enemies have, I find.

Solo maps with the Megafauna. Nautilus is allowed but only if you spend all your SP on Extra Action for Megafauna.

X is my first and I just got the G-Self and Arcane, how should I be spending points on stats? I’ve been trying to add a pip to every stat 1 by 1 to have a balanced stack of units, but that probably isn’t the smartest strategy.

I’ve been trying to add a pip to every stat 1 by 1 to have a balanced stack of units, but that probably isn’t the smartest strategy. It really isn't. Focus on what your units do best. Dodgy units do not need HP or armour, bulky units do not need evasion. How much an unit needs EN depends on its attacks, some are mostly ammo-based thus they don't really need the EN upgrades that badly. Increasing weapons tends to be more expensive, so it shouldn't be a priority early-game.

But you only get it with 5 bars in every stat(except weapons). I tried to pump dodge etc on some reals and didn't get it until every stat had 5 bars. They range from mediocre to ridiculously good.

I haven't played X yet though, so I'm not sure if it's nice on the money front (though it's a modern SRW, so I can imagine it is). At the very least, I read that Heero and Wing Zero still have the exact same ace bonus and FUB as in Z2-2 and I can only imagine that's just as good as in that game. Zero System-boosted Rolling Buster Rifle was so much fun.

The G self is a good unit and benefits greatly from energy upgrades as its best attack and barrier eat it up quickly. On the other hand the arcane looks underwhelming and desperately needs upgrades in energy (its only good attack eats 20 en a pop) accuracy and mobility. Personally unless it gets dramatically upgraded I'm benching it first chance I get.

Caphi posted:Meanwhile, the G-Lucifer is pretty good but is pilot-locked. The G-Lucifer is an extremely great unit because it's got an extremely spammable and extraordinarily powerful "finisher" so it's very combat capable, yet it's crewed by two support pilots with a wealth of valuable support spells. You basically get two free support pilots for one launch slot without compromising your combat effectiveness.

She gets one of them (I think it's Bless?) but if you Ace her it upgrades into cheap Hope anyway, which is ludicrously good on a main support pilot. As a combat unit the G-Lucifer is adequate. The machine chassis is fairly strong (for a sweeper) but it's not as though Raraiya is an MC-tier pilot, plus their Spirit list is this weird half-rear end combat/support mix spread around between both pilots, with Valor on Nored, who as a subpilot has more limited SP options. They're still a highly respectable unit. I started putting them in my mid-late game support rank and have zero regrets. They're very mediocre on the boss phase but those funnels rip through the first couple enemy waves.

A couple of the 50% bonuses are so good you should rush them once everybody you use has a baseline of 2 or 3 in their relevant stats. The Gratan becoming a resupply unit as well as repair is good enough to consider it, imo.
