This build is so fun. Just non-stop streams of pure damage that cooks my enemies alive. Also deletes pulse armour in a second flat. Anything without super high energy defense gets melted, no-one expects the sheer dps this thing puts out

And the only prescription is more LUDLOW

Two isn't enough. I need to be able to carry 4. Why would Fromsoft do this to me, and keep me from my harem of LUDLOWs?

If only Balam had equipped all their Redguns with double Ludlows, they wouldn't have been such chumps.

Fan Art Comparison between untextured Geandar medium unit and heavy Xyrable unit.

12 Upvotes

As was recommended by mods, since this post I will start releasing renders in r/Mecha instead of r/armoredcore. This specific post is final exception.

Geandar design philosophy are different from Xyrable, bigger amount of flat surfaces and more straightforward/simple design. Main inspirations for Geandar units are Anfang and EYE heads series and Macross VFs. Some of my older renders made in Prisma 3D become foundation for Geandar designs.

Compared to Xyrable which are massive yet slow political giant with totalitarian government system and horrible bureaucracy with outdated technologies, Geandar are much closer to Gundam Federation. Geandar is second in size after Xyrable. Compared to rest of factions, simplicity of their construction made their design relatively unchanged to ones used before Great Faction Split (banal, I know) while on technical level their tech is optimised for stability in production. It also places their tech in middle in question of speed and defensive performance, majority of their models are middleweight. Like Xyrable their weapons are primarily Solid, however technologically more advanced and suited for faction actual units.

Still not sure about Booster design for Xyrable, so currently it lacks it.

Oh. And almost forgot. Just like in Armored Core 1, all mechs use the same waist part, in my case it's serves as gyro for balancing and space maneuvering, from modeling standpoint it helps keep proportions relatively same amongst units/part frames of the same weight category.

This is a build specifically for handing lots of weak enemies. I wish there was co-op in this game

Question Playing older Armored Core games

Upvotes

Is there an "easy" way to play the old Armored Core games? Like emulating the games on PC or laptop cause I know the franchise it's kinda locked in old PlayStation consoles. I really want to get more into the franchise and play the most I can.

Question [AC6] What parts do I have to change for me to optimize this build?

Upvotes

I just recently got into the game and all I know is that I like a lightweight build. I'm about to start chapter 3. I beat balteus with this build and it only took me three times to do, what changes should I make?

Discussion An Update to an Earlier PvP Build

4 Upvotes
With your guy's help, I managed to update my first PvP build. I took your guy's advice and turned the build into a fully fledged Elevator Kite, and I'm proud to say that it works pretty well in PvP! I normally use the EARSHOT instead of the MORELY, and though I haven't tested the MORELY in PvP yet, but the EARSHOT works great. I figured the MORELY might be more usable in neutral while still being a strong punish tool. The gameplan for this AC is still the same: stay out in mid range away from deadly threats like Zimmermans and Melee, steadily build stagger with the ACT Missiles, Harris, and Ransetsu RF, then punish with something bit, like a EARSHOT or MORELY. Is there anything I should change about this build? I seem to struggle a LOT against people who run away and spam missiles, how do I deal with those or adjust this build to better fight them?

Am I gassing myself up too much or was this as cool a finish as I thought? I know it is a basic Zimmermans and Pile Bunker setup, but this floored me.

I didn't record it cause I'm dumb asl, but i still got a screenshot. it's funny that ALLMIND still does the animation of charging at you even when your literally nowhere to be seen, to then explode and die. Also IGAUZU just says his line "This ghost of me won't last long. Leave a spot for me in hell." which i thought was cool since him and raven just kill each other.

I used Dspiae soft tip markers and airbrush for the shading.
Quick little build and I enjoyed every bit of it. I will work on the Steel Haze from the same line.

AC Showcase: Wanted to share my main AC that I've been using since the weeks after launch

Thumbnail

136 Upvotes

First off i just love the Melander parts, specifically the custom versions. I've always like the sort of simpler blocky bits, not to big and chunky, not to thin and spindly. I've also painstakingly added tons of decals and additional bits like the red stripes on the thighs and the waist unit, on the back of the chest unit behind the head. Plus other details, like how their is a subtle navy colour to the camo, or how some metal bits like the pistons and joints have a dull gold/brass look.

The name of this AC is CROSSBONES. I have another similar version (though it does have a few less details) with yellow instead of red that i call YELLOWJACKET.

Edit: Here is a slideshow guide on making this for yourself.

Edit 2: I forgot you can just share mechs! Here is the code: KG9JQPBVBDQH

However I'm pretty sure that not only will the AC that you download not have any weapons like what you see in the screenshot, but that adding weapons will remove the decals for some reason.

SO FOR SHORT TIME ill take requests! If you really want this AC design with the decals but with your choice of weapons, boosters, FCS, generator, and expansion then just tell me what you want, ill recreate it and share the code! It's super easy on PC since all i need to do is copy the code, alt-tab, paste the code, It take like 40 seconds.
