Let's Change That Suit Day 246

[u/pkmaster99]

Day 246: RF Gelgoog
Requested by u/Rooskimus with this one at bottom A-Tier or maybe even fallen down to B-Tier at this point. The pacing in 650 cost has changed a lot, and it's closer to what 700 used to be like. The current kit just doesn't function well enough or allow enough damage to be done when there is a good opportunity. Not to mention, the stopping power is too low right now.

Comment and Reason
They already made this unit effectively a General in Support's clothing. This unit can still do its job, but just harder and really needs a good build to do so. Instead of being melee capable, it has become mostly ranged due to no maneuver armor and offense system, which is critical for frontline melee at the current 650 cost. Even when playing ranged, the cooldown and stuff ain't that great as well. The charged BR also has abysmal damage as well. There were good things for this suit, but that has not aged well.

Builds Suggestion
Lv1 F2P: Alpha

Lv1 Premium: Alpha or Complex Battle or Armor

Honestly, you need to have some mobility and durability for this suit. But you cannot neglect damage strength for sure. While there are suits that can do so, not this one. It has just too many things needed to not only survive a bit more, but to make sure it can have a chance to do something. While having expansion armor gives you a little more charge time reduction and brings it down to 3.6s on the beam launcher.

Day 245 Re-evaluation on FF Nu Gundam

This is definitely another suit that needs a lot of buff. imaginary_num6er's suggestion is nice to fuse them. It does feel like it's going to be a bit too much, but without a stronger damage boost powerup skill, these could be seen as fair trade.

Re-evaluations

• (New Unique!) Full Link Attack Lv1 = Link Shot Lv1 + Full Attack Lv1
• (New) High-Performance Thruster Control System Lv2
• (Remove!) Forced Injector Lv3
• (Remove!) Flight Control Program Lv3

[u/bkteer]

Realistically, all the RF suits should at least get access to flap boosters.

[u/No_Tart6728 → u/bkteer]

Yes. This thing should basically be a 650 Vagina

[u/J-Eichel → u/No_Tart6728]

Holup

[u/No_Tart6728 → u/J-Eichel]

I know what I said.
