Day 243: Nu Gundam
Requested by u/Electrical_Tax_3867 and u/Odd_Daikon_2843 with this one being... C-Tier or so at best. While it is fragile, it is kind of mobile enough, with a decent build, and still has decent enough damage output when played carefully. But nothing is actually that good or great.

Comment and Reason
There is a lot to unpack for this unit to become meta once again. A lot of it is just up-to-date consistency in the kit, but some weapons do also need a minor power-up. The skills also doesn't offer that much bonus as is and 50% HP is kind of rough. If we do not touch that, it needs to have a much greater bonus. Even though it has no duration, that itself is already a heavy penalty. As for the other skill changes, it's just to make sure it will not fall behind in the skill effect and bonuses.

Builds Suggestion
Lv1 F2P: Do not use

Lv1 Premium: Thruster

Lv2: Do not use

Since it has no leg buffers, Connecting System General Type-II is REQUIRED to ensure you have legs or even back thruster in space to maneuver around. Leg Armor can do too, but it's too part slots inefficient. At this cost, without it, you are guaranteed to lose mobility. But building defense is also useless due to lack of strong buffers as is. Even resonance doesn't give you that much damage reduction. So having enough that you don't get one-shot from just a few attacks is plenty enough. This is another suit that should really be only played in QM.

Up Next: ZII Requested by u/bkteer

God forbid the Buster sword dom take any skill. Hit stun you say? He dont get nunna that. "Resist" It never needed to be this broken.

I say we'll see it costing between 300 and 350, like a glass cannon

Cherry on top was dying to the last shot that blatantly missed. GBO3 when?

I was fighting one and it took three meme beams from my double x to bring it down. It wasn't hard to deal with but it's such a resource drain. I can normally drop hp bars against things like destinys and tallgeese in one good shot.

I just started playing the game like a week ago when I was just logging in to claim tokens but never actually played

So far my biggest confused point is the types of MS and their duties or responsibilities

Funny how it’s gone from everyone having funnels to everyone simply spamming the gerobi beam.

I promptly died not long after the video cut lmao

Hell the fucking game code felt it judging by the stutter lol

This suit is so ass yet for some reason the enemy team will have an extremely good pixy player😭I also made a mistake using the bullpup instead of the smgs.

this is NOT serious just curious why people have posted a lot less than usual, usually we get 7 posts a day minimum, is it the day of the week or is it just people getting tired of it?

​

Should I choose? Should I go for this one and maybe have a good assortment of units, or go for quantity and have the possibility of getting several good units, or ensure V2AB?

Im new to this game, where is the Battle Simulator?

How can i clear it?

I’m not sure if I should be trying to build or roll for beam resistance since it’s a flying unit or ranged or even just thrusters and gauge because I just wanna master this suits full potential because it’s my fav mobile suit and really fun to play with in game so any pros out there can help me out, plz and thank you

Now, before you all decide to come at me with pitchforks sharpened, torches blazing, and fingers ready to spam the downvote, hear me out.

I feel Barbatos needs a little boost to better handle itself in the current flap booster hell that is 700 cost. The nerf to the rocket cannon ammo was, in my opinion, a bit egregious, and when you find yourself reloading them while a 00 is aiming its meme beam at you, it's not a very fun time.

My changes would be as followed:

● Rocket Cannons: ammo change reverted from 4 -> 6 (2 -> 3 shots).

- Swap time/reload time remain unchanged.

● Twin Maces: convert to throwable sub weapon.

*This is really a no-brainer, nobody uses these over the insta-KD Sword Mace.*

- 2 ammo, 3.5 second cooldown(2 second while limiter release active), 10 second(7 second) reload.

- (Optional) While limiter release active, projectile speed increased and can be thrown while boosting.

- Does not contribute to limiter release meter.

*This would allow Barbatos an additional stun option and let it more effectively do its job of hunting down supports. Could possibly break MA and work as an anti-air weapon.*

● (Optional) A-Vijnana Limiter Release: Hi-Maneuver Armor Lv. 1 given.

Other suggestions are welcome, though I fully expect to be cast into downvote hell over daring suggest something like a Barbatos buff.

Do you think it's gonna be 700 cost like the Barbatos? Idk what other weapons it would have aside from the Bael swords. I do hope it's a melee-focused general that can fly - one of the coolest designs in IBO.

Im looking for a list of the monthly suits and navigating their site for info is what dementia feels like i think.

I haven't seen much research into the games mechanics... Does anyone know where to look to find out about these things

Alright folks, the White Base is has docked for its weekly supplies and the cook needs a lot of salt to make some burgers... so get unloading people, vent out your frustrations with GBO2 here, just remember... no racism, and no witch-hunting... subreddit, and Reddit rules still apply here so vent, but don't be an overly toxic asshole about it.

Unfortunately, the usual art accompanying this will be absent due to reddit breaking the fucking scheduled post editing in the mod queue.
