Now that I'm firmly in just S ranking missions for the last achievement territory I'm trying to build something more personalized that feels good enough to drive that it makes me want to learn how to clear content with it instead of just building for the content I've come to the conclusion during this chase that I really just want White Glint back

I'd love to have White Glint back, as well as quite a few weapons from the game too. Also give me the big fuckoff rocket you duct tape to your rear end

The companies felt really unique in personality as well I much prefer the level design movement in this though: I always felt like I was kind on rails in the AC4 era.

Bumhead posted:This has probably been done to death so I apologise for a crap contribution to the thread, but how does this game stack up to Sekiro? In terms of its approach as much as it’s difficulty? This is the easiest From game I've played. Sekiro is at least five times as difficult. In AC6 you don't have to be nearly as perfect. Just learning to time quick boost dodges based on the sound cues takes you pretty far. There are also certain builds that will shred most bosses and mini bosses in less than 30 seconds.

Investigate BAWS aresenal No 2 S Rank Pro Tips: 1. Use the hammerhead head, as the scan duration and area is gigantic and makes it easy to find the enemies 2. Kill all the enemies including the hidden one (on the right side hallway by the data log after the first enemy) 3. Finish under 4 minutes (use the below strat to do this as you cut off a lot of dead time) 4. Bring something that can reliably alpha strike the bad guys to death, songbirds, needlegun, rockets, etc and a reliable ACS load hand weapons (needle pistols, handguns, submachine guns, shotguns) 5. Dead fall into the coral well 6. Boost from the start to the first enemy by skirting the right side wall dont bother hitting the markers Spoilers I guess on this early mission: All the enemies are the invisibo MMD mechs and they actually exist in the level in sleep mode prior to appearing to fight you, so for example in the 2v1 section you can scan and find the melee unit sleeping by the giant engine ring you pass and 1 shot it. In the 3v1 section you can scan before reaching the door and find the enemies which wakes them all up, saving you precious time. You can also scan the sleeping enemy by the first data log. In the final zone the enemies jump to the same locations first so you can just camp their spawns but otherwise just scan and you'll see them on the wall. Use assault armor to help defeat the melee boss enemy's pulse armor. This mission has one of the tightest time requirements and the nature of the fights makes it very annoying unless you cheese it with the above strat.

I thought assault armor got hard countered by pulse armor? The few times I tried it against anyone with a sliver of it left it didn't do anything, I've been waiting to break it before popping it.

Assault armor counters pulse armor, the assault will even continue straight through pulse and apply damage if the shield doesn't have enough left to tank the full explosion. Pulse can be a serious trap depending on your play style, though it can save you if you activate it right before a big attack. I'm of the opinion that assault is easier to use and it's nicer to have an extra helping of damage than it is to have a shield that quickly decays on its own.

I need to remember that Assault armor cancels attacks as well as does damage I'm too likely to pop it just to complete a stagger so I can shot gun-whip them to death

For the Arsenal, I used the heavy linear rifle, it's charged shot is cheap (1 ammo even charged so same price) and will automatically stagger the bots on hit, then pulse blade to chop. I had orbitals to help with the wall guys and the pulse shield guy, will 100% agree you want assault armor to bust his shield open fast, once its open he died quick. Might have a good build for the refinery mission 2 plasma cannons on back, the heavier plasma rifle and laser lance. You can pretty much one shot the two bosses by charging all three guns, waiting for the lance one to charge in and be close then just letting the triggers free, it should stagger and do a lot of damage and you do your charged lance rush to finish him, repeat for the second guy when he comes after. let the hand gun go first if they boost dodge let go of the two cannons then, if he doesn't let go of one cannon then the other to bait the dodges and stagger. I did it in one go through, no resupply, ng+ first run so not a replay so I don't know if thats good for S rank but it feels good AtomikKrab fucked around with this message at 22:21 on Sep 7, 2023 |

big cummers ONLY posted:Hey I know I'm bad and need to get good. I'm okay with that but I'm old and can't tell how much of my trouble with Balteus is from bad build and how much is just needing more practice. Can someone just post a build that's good for killing him, and I will pilot it while working on making my play better. Thank you and God bless. Posting my kill again, I’m bad and got hit a lot but it should give you a rough idea, just stay as close as possible and follow him when he runs away, that prevents missile spam which is the scariest part. Phase 2 is a bit rough but aggressively dodging under him if you keep on top of him will usually make it work Everything except the back weapons (which were disappointing anyway, I’d use laser guns) are available at the point in the game you’re at https://youtu.be/nBGC7OQne7A?si=x3Igh9ekRWHEK1GR

Scan duration is double-edged, it's both the time the targets stay highlighted and the cooldown time before you can scan again.

I think the biggest thing new players are not doing is kicking. The damage is pretty good, it does a lot of stagger damage, it seems to lock people in place for a bit so kick into shotgun is guaranteed, and also it’s funny and looks cool

Infiltrate Grid 086 S Rank Tips: 1. This is another one where you either need to outpace with kills or finish fast 2. If you kill the 2 battle log tetrapods above Invincible rummy you get lots of extra time 3. You can shoot the fuel tanks that hang above the tetrapod encounter before cleaner yourself to get some extra dmg and stun on the tetrapod 4. You wanna kill cleaner basically in 1 or 2 stuns, I did it with zimmerman and stun needles only took 1 down + 5% HP chip after 5. I ignored most of the enemies except ones close by I could reliably 1 shot with a shotgun blast and killed the 2 battlelog tetrapods.

I managed to beat balteus (as a very bad player) with a very light build (full nachtrier or close enough) and two pulse guns with shotgun and pulse blade in the weapon bays Remember that breaking shield is a stagger. Remember that you don’t need to hold jump at all times to stay in the air; being above him is extremely important in the second half as it makes the fireblades never hit. Being close is better than being far away.

The damage is pretty good, it does a lot of stagger damage, it seems to lock people in place for a bit so kick into shotgun is guaranteed, and also it’s funny and looks cool The kick is absolutely amazing, it has, almost, no cooldown and the boost cost is pretty light coupled with heavier load weight making the kick deal more damage. If your build is something short range like the shotgun/zimmer then gun-kick-gun-kick-sword/assault followup will deal shitloads of damage and will almost assuredly stagger whatever you're beating the poo poo out of. Though some enemies, Ibis mostly, will be too light for repeat kicks and will get too much knockback for repeats.

Attack the Refueling Station S Rank Pro Tip: 1. Another annoying one thats really time dependent, sub 4 minutes 2. Kill the battle log LC at the start and the one near the bridge to get extra pay + time 3. Fly to the left at the start to skip all the bad guys, then veer right to take out the LC then keep going right to get the bridge guy then fly across and up to the right to head towards the final objective. I tried quickly killing the fuel tanks on the way to the end objective and skipped the LCs and got an A rank, but somehow getting LESS bonus pay by killing the battle log LCs I got an S rank. The S rank system is dumb i'm finding out

Phase 2 is a bit rough but aggressively dodging under him if you keep on top of him will usually make it work I can get to phase 2 every time now and usually get him to 10-20%, including a nailbiter where I got him from 50% to 5% on 1hp. At this point, its learning the tells for the flame attacks and I should be able to nail it. Sometimes he just turbofucks me and it isn't clear to me if RNG is capitalizing on my misplay, or if I am doing something else wrong without noticing. But I think I'll brute force it soon enough e: thinking about switching to controller to make using the back weapons easier. its awkward to try to hit with charged laser cannons while moving big cummers ONLY fucked around with this message at 23:17 on Sep 7, 2023 |

I just beat the NG+ guy iguazu sends in the underground by punching him to death after running out of ammo in the burst pistols I was trying for the first time. Just got him on the wall and kept punching him until he exploded. Amazing stuff. Wasn't even using basho arms lmao
