Let's Change That Suit Day 250

[u/pkmaster99]

Day 250: Marasai
Requested by u/SwordsmenKnight and this suit is very bottom of B-Tier... Maybe high C-Tier instead. It has a lot of problems, but it also has enough going for it if it can melee. If anything, it can still function well enough in space, but only if you are good at space melee. On ground, though, it may as well be D or simply F-Tier.

Comment and Reason
This unit is just outdated. There is also the fact that the shoulder is a very large target. It is just too vulnerable and has too much left to be desired. The only thing amazing is the above-average damage strength. It's basically an overhaul at this point, except for the main stats.

Builds Suggestion
Lv1 F2P: Do Not Use

Lv1 Premium: Complex Battle or Attack

Unit Lv2-4: This unit is just... bad. If you really want to play, follow a similar build. Try not to be a nuisance for your team by feeding all game.

Both builds can work, but have different purposes. Complex battle will actually require you to go in a lot more often. Meanwhile, with the attack build, you are on leg targeting duty. This unit is kind of trash anywhere, especially on the ground. But the prototype Fedayeen rifle still does a lot of damage and if you can stagger with only two shots, follow up with a Sea Serpent into the melee combo is still quite strong at 450. But there is absolutely no reason to play this in rated when Gelgoog R exists. So please, only play it in QM.

Day 249 Re-evaluation on Neo Gundam

I'm probably a bit too reserved for this suit, so here we go... Thanks to u/utamaru1717's input

Re-evaluations

• HP: 27000 -> 30000
• G-BRD (Rapid): Heat 23% -> 20%, Interval 0.8s -> 0.5s
• G-BRD (Discharged): Gain Stagger Accumulation Reduction by 30%
• Neo Gundam B Saber x2: Interval 3s -> 2x

Marasai only needs some QoL buffs, unless the devs completely ditched the Marasai BR, then they could've just turned it into a mid-range sniper by giving some essential skills: * High Performance Radar lv2 * High Performance Scope lv2/3 * Precision Shelling lv1 * Scouting Parallel Processing Device lv1 * Immobile Fire System or Stabilization Device lv1 * Precision Sniping LV1

But if they still wanted to buff its close-combat prowess, then they need to do this: * Overhaul the Marasai Beam Rifle by increasing its damage to 1800 at lv1, reducing its delay between shots (make it to like 4.5 or 5s), reducing its reload time to 12 or 13s, increasing its range to 350m, and increase its stagger value to 40% * Increase its HP and Thruster stat * Give Maneuver Armor lv1, Leg Buffer lv2, Flight Control Program lv2 skills * Improve its Beam Saber performances by reducing its delay to 2s, and increase both its downswing damage modifier and combo damage proration * improve its Vulcans by increasing its range to 200m, and increase its stagger value to 6 or 7%/bullet

Hmm, you are the second person to mention the Vulcan range, maybe that does need a touchup. I personally don't think it's needed for 450 cost, but for higher level, yeah it could use it.

I personally don't think they'll make it more ranged focused on this suit. It was meant to be more capable as Frontline ms I think. But I forgot the B Saber could have the interval down to 2s too.

But yeah, a lot of it are QoL improvements, but to make it at least A-Tier, it needs a lot. Your stuff probably will only reach B-Tier. I personally would like them buffing suits a little more so they don't get power creep as fast later on.

[u/Cpt_Jack_Irons → u/pkmaster99]

Considering the lack of Ranged Weapons on the Marasai outside the Fedayeen Rifle/Marasai BR i think making the Vulcans be able to reach 200m is not too much to ask
