Well I made it to A rank but I'm not sure I have the right temperament for ranked PVP. Now that I can't rely on having a better build to carry me through while the other AC doesn't even have a chance I'm just getting too tilted. No it wasn't a "good fight" and you didn't "deserve the win" guy who ran away lobbing missiles the whole fight.

There are mobility options available to you that can help you close the distance on artillery builds, and you can also try actively using the terrain of various maps for defensive purposes.

I loooooove boosting and it makes these sorts of fights way, way easier. Buerzel is still good for this, though I generally run a melee option so I prefer the Kikaku booster.

I can tell you that by far the most frustrating builds to play against are kite builds. People who take pot shots from far away and zip around just outside your weapons' effective ranges for the entire match in extremely frail but hyper mobile mechs. So, you know, you could always just make one of those.

Can you still win from time out? Cuz I ain't bothering to play again until that's gone.

I don't mind the kiting builds as much as the heavy ACs that generally just assault boost repeatedly while mashing their buttons. If that sounds salty and bitter, I am feeling fragile.

That was my build through B Rank. Just a big rear end tank with 4 grenade launchers. Doesn’t seem to be as reliable anymore and obviously against anyone who can kite you it’s just game over.

The new laser cannons are pretty ridiculous in those ranks too. Even if you suck some of the time latency will favor the cannons and you'll just alpha people from blind firing!

Finished the first run last night, got the Fires of Raven ending. That was a pretty good game right there and looking forward to NG+ later. Spent pretty much the whole game in two different quad leg builds, one big and bulky and the fast zippy one once it unlocked using grenade launchers, chainguns, the songbirds and the needle launcher at times. Think I'll try a melee focus on NG+ with the laser dagger cause I thought that thing looked super cool animation wise, and it'll force me to change up my playstyle. Any recommendations for shoulder weapons that go well with a swap to melee? I'm thinking I'll have a shotgun of some kind in the other hand but not sure what will best compliment that.

Bullet orbits work well, you can store a second shotgun, or use a Ludlow to keep shooting between reloads. The needle gun Viento is also a standard equip with melee to push stagger. The JVLN beta missile is also a decent stagger weapon, but isn't of much use against MTs in missions. It's possible to equip a second melee weapon like the moonlight or lance to continue to take advantage of a high melee specialization arm. My personal favorite was a shotgun and chainsaw + 2x bullet orbit combo. War Wizard fucked around with this message at 05:12 on Jan 2, 2024 |

I had the Pulse Blade equipped the entire game because it wrecks shields. I almost always had a vertical plasma missile on the shoulder as it could effectively one-shot MTs without line of sight, but I geard they were nerfed so IDK if that is still true. Dual melee with laser lance and pile bunker is also extremely funny. Get your foe almost staggered, deal the final stagger damage with the lance to close in, and you've often got time to hit a charged pile bunker before they recoger. Does like 7k damage.

The VPM nerf was to make them start their terminal maneuver from farther away so they aren't as good at hitting agile targets. They still one shot MTs.

Trying to climb through A tier off and on. At this point, with my current ability, it does feel like a very loose rock/paper/scissors set up. I'm being stubborn and trying to put something together on my own with... varying levels of success. It's somewhat disheartening to build something you feel has a good shot againt half the meta, but get paired against the other half you are weak against repeatedly.

Might be best to wait for a patch to fix the stun bug anyway if you're getting frustrated. Tanks can kind of auto win right now just by semi frequently breaking out of stuns early with no required input from the player. I think anyone can bug out the stun right now though, I've had it happen to me in my heavy biped. But it seems the most reliable for tanks to bust out early right now.

I heard some passing mention about something being off with the stagger stun currently, but have not looked into it.

Not sure if this was mentioned already but AGDQ seems to have an AC6 "NG+ true ending" run scheduled for 12:40pm on Friday the 19th. It's any% but is estimated at nearly 2 hours, so it sounds like it's going to be more on the side of ridiculous expert play rather than a series of glitches?

The AC6 NG Any% WR is under 2 hours and consists of 90% traversal optimization beelining for objectives (read: assault boosting in a straight line), and quick killing bosses with pilebunker. NG+ is 10 minutes faster between OS tuning and loading data for completed builds instead of putting together on the go. To my knowledge there aren't any glitches or OOBs discovered that help save time.

Does anyone have any build suggestions for fighting the Enforcer? This feels like one of the biggest difficulty spikes I've ever encountered in a game. I've been steamrolling everything and now no build I try seems to work against this thing. It doesn't help that I can only dodge its starting attack about 1% of the time.

I would say to keep as close as possible. Apply pressure with shotguns, melee, gatling, etc. Be a bit reckless and aggressive. I think for dodging you can escape a lot of his melee attacks by jumping up, but if you keep enough pressure on, he won't have enough time to bully you. you can do it!
