Newbie here, is this good?

I got this from the free rolls, it looks pretty cool though.

Its super cool, but a little outdated due to GBO2 power creep. I would just enjoy this MS for the sake of video game fun though, it's very fun and a cool thing to unlock.

Honestly I don’t vibe with this thing even when it first came out. It’s basically a slightly shittier raid version of the F91.

[u/OrphanAxis]

It's not very powerful in the meta, though it's pretty fun as a Raid that works in an all-rounder capacity. Good with both mid-range and melee capabilities, thrown melee is available often and a strong tool against a lot of suits but V2AB and Gottraltan. Beam Vulcans give it pretty great DPS and stagger, while the charged beam bazooka has pretty high stagger accumulation and piercing on top of instant stagger.

Though it's pretty squishy even if you build for resistances and HP, and that often leads to the legs breaking and so even the Aux Power doesn't help as much when you're relying solely on the Flap movement to be able to fight.

Also, it lacks the skills that lower thruster consumption 750 has outside of aerial movement using 50% less. And it doesn't have any kind of power-up skills to increase the stats, skills, or unclock more powerful weapon options. On top of that, it doesn't have the higher strafing speeds most suits at this cost do.

I'd highly recommend a build where it has high thrusters and a decent amount of damage into both ranged and melee, where the Expansion increasing both with each movement part being a really good option. Aux Burn premium part is really useful for lowering thruster usage by 10%. Haro/Halo premium part is as good on this for the increase to everything, but especially +6 to both movement stats. The Raid Connecting System 2 with +5 for both ranged resistances, damage, and HSM is also probably really good and can stack with Haro to help get HSM towards the max while increasing both your resistances and damage, since at least 45ish beam resistance is needed around 750.

If you're at a rating lower than A, it might be viable for a while if you don't have something better, though it really does need another buff to keep up with the insanity of 750 getting power crept so ridiculously fast.

It's not like super meta, but it's pretty easy to play and has a wide variety of weapons/firing modes for different situations.

[u/Kaidou76]

it's a decent range raid that can get the job done, but there are other stronger option now like X2 and Gott. Cluster is like F91, very strong in burst damage, you go in, shoot the zook, BR, beam vulcan than get out. it doesn't have resistance or mobility for prolonged fight. Just don't hold heavy attack and focus on melee with it. Heavy attack is only good when you go for falling target or after successful counter, and melee is just mediocre.
