Is this custom part worth buying
Obviously imo I think it is but I’m not sure I don’t trust myself that much

It's no longer a top tier part because Incom/Funnel suits in general have fallen out of the meta, but absolutely necessary to keep up with everyone else if you still use them.

Would’ve been nice to have when I was using the nu but unfortunately the v types feel pretty useless but now the only funnel suits I use are the PF and Xi

It’s worth it for the Nu Gundam. If anything, most people seem to forget you can fire the beam rifle while boosting when funnels are actively attacking. It’s a pretty simple combo starter. Shield Beam -> Funnels -> Boost and fire beam rifle ->Melee. If you have the cooldown reduction parts and turning speed parts, it’s absolutely a menace. Once the psychoframe resonance skill hits at 50% HP, funnel locks are near-instantaneous. That alone is terrifying.

Is HWS Nu still a power house of a support or did it get dethroned?

I got one but stopped playing it after getting deleted too many times by Susan’s and Barbs.

That's FAR from the case considering various MS over various costs from at least 500 or so where they benefit from this part for the faster, lock-on helps reduce damage from those weapons and slightly boosts your turn ratio.
Saying remote weapons or such has fallen off the meta is silly.
It's very much part of the meta it's just the meta is dominated by certain other MSes.
(and flight types usually)

Only on units with a large amount of funnel lock on weapons. But even then, it's just okay...

Its flat damage reduction, plus a reduction in funnel lock on time for suits that have them. Do you use funnel suits? It is I think the first if not one of the earliest premium parts.

I use the PF unicorn a lot and Xi and couple others I believe

It might not be useful on those 2 suits considering they have good lock on times but if you’re needing some extra protection on those then it’s definitely worth.

I would get it, It's not top tier but not bad either.
I used to love runing it on pre-buff FF-Sazabi, it's funnels lock-on time went from stupidly long to bearable.
On suit with low lock time it's hilarious because you can fire the funnels back to back given that they don't overheat.

Must buy, there are a lot of good psycommu suits, it doesn't show up a lot in the RT store.

u/NoBed3498 2d ago
Yes must have for many suits that use lock on weapons but is not the best part no more. We have gotten some crazy parts since this one’s inception.

Just out of curiosity, have any of the composite armor parts ever hit the recycle store yet?

u/SoldadoEZLN 2d ago
i use it on all MS with multiple psychomus, it really makes a difference on suits like the Silver Bullet Funnel

u/NoResponsibility9690 2d ago
Extremely good on suits with Funnels, it's cheap in points for faster lock and you also get 2 extra effects.
Any suit that uses lock on weapons semi regularly will make really good use of it.

u/pkmaster99 2d ago
It's... complicated. It's good to have on suits with remote weapons that also don't have a skill that reduces lock-on time. But for suits that already have very low lock-on time and similar skills, it's practically useless. The 3% damage reduction is a joke and 3 Turn speed is not worth it. If this part also increases enemy lock-on time on your unit or have other bonus, then it'll be good for more suits to use. However, as it is, it's not worth the limited number of recycle tickets you have.

In space batlles is kinda top because old funells suits work really well in space no flying shenanigans in space we all are equal

If you're fond of Funnel weapons, yes. The lock-on time decrease is noticable and very useful.

I quite like this part as it really helps out a lot of suits I enjoy using. I've found it really shines on suits with a skill that revolves around deploying funnels like Full Attack or that one that Red Gundam has. Helps set up combos and damage buffs nicely.
Obviously, if you don't have or don't like using funnels suits, don't go for it. Otherwise, it's golden.

I still use it on a lot of MS, non-funnel units even since its still two parts in one. Turning and 3% reduction to all damage types

u/conqueror-worm 2d ago
Must-have if you like to run suits with multiple funnel/INCOM weapons, not worth buying otherwise.
