chiasaur11 posted:I reloaded my save every time I lost a mission, but otherwise I took my lumps. The only mission that was frustrating enough to make me want save states in AC1 was the finale. A lot of awkward climbing before a couple really nasty fights made for much more tedium than tension. Oh god the jumping puzzles in my mech game with janky controls

Muscle Tracer posted:In AC-adjacent news, I am enjoying tactical squad-based mech game Phantom Brigade. It's got customization maybe a quarter as deep as Armored Core (but still big customizable highly-paintable mechs), a sort of Ace Combat-esque storyline (the other AC this game is adjacent to), and the tactical goodness we all know and love but with some Invisible Inc-style enemy action prediction as a core element. It's cool, I'm not far enough to know if it's good, and it might scratch that mech itch for a while. Gonna have to check this out at some point thanks!

I feel like I’m missing some very fundamental ac knowledge in the sense of “how to play” and weapon roles and baiting dodges/punishing, dodge timing, etc Is there a primer anywhere

Behold me missing every assault kick and kinda doing nothing with this shotgun I brought. I think this will be helpful and i will watch it later, thank you

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.

MadFriarAvelyn posted:After three nights of attempts, learning how to dodge, how to break pulse shields, and how to be much more aggressive: with just 2000 AP remaining, no repair kits remaining, and the boss at ~20%, one last ditch overboost -> assault armor -> sword swipe -> stagger -> unload everything combo, and Balteus is finally down. it did feel real nice to beat balteus

johnny park posted:How does this work? Whenever I try it they just fly away after I hit them with the lance. Do you only do it when the lance hit will stagger? Yeah pretty much, i guess? Also you can switch earlier than you might think you can

Snake Maze posted:Quick boost backwards worked for my lightweight reverse-joint build. i'm playing quick biped and this worked decently well, i have to remember to boost straight BACK not to the side, which feels like it should work. With a loadout similar to the balteus fight I can semi-reliably get to phase 2 now, but then it seemed like I couldn't do much damage at all.

Snake Maze posted:It helped a lot psychologically when I realized that phase 2 is more like the 80% mark. The boss stops putting its shield up after that so the rest of the health bar goes a lot faster. I was having a lot of trouble landing damage but I’m also less familiar with the pattern, i suppose
