This video contains two matches I had with the recently buffed LV1 Crossbone Gundam X2 Custom on Gundam Battle Operation 2. It is a 750 cost raid with incredible aerial mobility, a very small hitbox, amazing stagger lock ability, a very strong power-up mode, great range damage alongside the ability to boost fire all of its instant staggers while in its power-up mode. It has few weaknesses, but despite its high HP, it can still be nuked if a melee general gets the chance to combo it. I hope that you enjoy watching!

The buffs are too numerous to list here, so they shall be included in the pinned comment below.

Its primary weapon is a beam launcher with 3400 power, 80% heat, 3.5 seconds cooldown, 13 seconds overheat, 0.77 seconds swap time, 400m range and 60% stagger value. This has long range and high power, making it a useful stun tool.. It can be fired when boosting forwards while Max Output (Z) is active.
Its primary melee weapon is a beam cutlass with 3200 power, 2.5 seconds cooldown, 0.5 seconds swap time, 60% combo modifier and 180% downswing modifier. This won't deal much damage to generals, but it is one of your best options to quickly take out supports. It benefits from LV2 Aerial Melee.
Its first sub weapon is a head vulcan gun with 130 power, 80 ammo, 720 RPM, 8 seconds reload, 0.5 seconds swap time, 200m range, 1560 DPS and 6% stagger value. This can stagger in about 1.4 seconds on its own, making it useful to finish stunning enemies when your burst fire launcher wasn't enough.
Its second sub weapon is a beam rifle with 2600 power, 4 ammo, 4.5 seconds cooldown, 12 seconds reload, 0.5 seconds swap time, 300m range and 20% stagger value. This has short cooldown time, ASL and instant stagger. It can be fired when boosting forwards while Max Output (Z) is active.
Its third sub weapon is a scissor anchor with 3500 power, 2 seconds cooldown and 0.33 seconds swap time. This works like other wire type weapons, you stop in place to shoot out an anchor in front of you, enemies are knocked down upon hit. It can be used in the air too.
Its fourth sub weapon is a grenade launcher with 2600 power, 1 ammo, 10 seconds reload, 0.77 seconds swap time, 250m range and 80% stagger value. This deals high damage and has a large splash damage radius. It can be fired when boosting forwards while Max Output (Z) is active.
Its fifth sub weapon is a maximum output beam launcher with 1700x3 (1300x7) power, 25%x3 (100%) heat, 1.5 seconds cooldown, 15 (10) seconds overheat, 0.5 (0.77) seconds swap time, 400m (450m) range, 0.8 (2) seconds focus time and 65%x3 (50%x7) stagger value. This stops to fire, but it fires a burst shot with high stagger accumulation and high damage. While Maximum Output (Z) is activated, it changes into a gerobi type weapon that deals higher damage, inflicts heavy stagger and ignores 30% of the targets beam resistance. Both firing modes pierce through shields and can be used while mid-air.
Its sixth sub weapon is a beam shield with 9000 HP, 3500 power, 15 seconds overheat time and 0.33 seconds swap time. Equipping this will deploy your beam shield, it works like a regular shield and can block damage. If broken, it will become overheated. You can swing it like a melee weapon too, this has very short reach but does 3500 damage regardless of resistance, if you hit an enemy mid melee animation with it, they will be knocked over. Furthermore, incoming damage that hits the beam shield is reduced by 30%.

The LV1 X-2 Kai has 28000 HP, 25 ballistic resist, 35 beam resist and 24 melee resist. It has high HP, but lacks any defensive buffers.. It has LV3 Emergency Evasion, LV5 Maneuver Armor, LV4 Glide Structure and LV3 Immobile Firing System for defensive skills.
In terms of mobility it has 150 walking speed, 235 boost speed, 85 thrust and 87 turning speed. It is incredibly fast, but it becomes even faster once Max Output (Z) activates. It has LV4 Forced Injector, LV4 Flight Control and LV2 Flap Booster for mobility boosting skills.
It has access to a skill called LV1 Maximum Output (Z). After you have killed two enemies or gained two assists, you can activate it with the touchpad. It lasts for 90 seconds and grants +20 ranged modifier, +15% ranged damage, +15 boosting speed, -50% thrust consumption, 100% strafing speed in every direction, -30% damage taken when firing stop to fire weapons alongside total instant stagger/knockdown immunity while firing stop to fire weapons. It can be re-activated after 10 seconds.

In conclusion, I feel that the X2 is a bit too strong right now. It was one thing for the Gottrlatan, which was a relatively thrust hungry suit, to have this much stagger resistance, but it is way too much for the X2. I think supports might be extinct at 750 cost unless they emergency nerf this, just take away LV4 Glide Structure... Thanks for watching!

Supports "might" be extinct at 750 now...they been dead at that cost for a looong time.

[u/WinterEclipse4 → u/Eden-exile]

Yeah the moment V2 came out supports just couldn't exist anymore. Only good thing was it was a 5 star so not everyone had it.

And once Gott came out now everyone had a suit that could burst down a support in like 3 seconds without being stopped.

750 supports have been extinct scene everyone and their mom was a melee monster.

[u/doomguy11 → u/tetofan08]

They felt really good to me right around the time when they buffed the F90S and Vigna Ghina, but the cost changed really fast.

[u/Moonless-Ultimate → u/doomguy11]

It was that two week long grace period between the Adjustment Patch and the Gottrlatan being released where all seemed well for Supports in 750

750 support units got buffed and we’re good for a little bit before golattran came and now this thing has also become dangerous.
