[Armored Core 6] Ambushing V.V Hawkins in one combo
5Mission: Ambush the Vespers
RECONFIG (V.V Hawkins) is relatively bulky but manageable. DUAL NATURE (V.VIII Pater) has Terminal Armour, so he's off the list.
No full mission here since both Pater and Flatwell introduce too much inconsistency for my liking. Speaking of, Middle Flatwell is featured in this video in more ways than one.
None of the following is technically consistent since Pater can--and often will--interrupt us with a charged melee. The smart move is to bring Pulse Armour, but me not smart.
00:00 - Assault Armour + Fist + 2xHuxley + NB-Redshift
==========
Firstly, the unaware state allows a 2000 impact Assault Armour to overload the ACS of an AC with near 2300 stability.
Secondly, NB-Redshift has just enough fire rate to squeeze a shot in between punches.
Thirdly, the timing for this sequence is pretty tight as the punch can override the shooting animation.
I find this difficult to execute, but a fun one.
00:37 - 2xMorley + Fist + Ashmead
==========
A typical ACS overload to pile bunker, with a single punch in between. The damage from the punch mattered while also easing the transition to pile bunker.
I managed to stab both ACs here, but not enough to pop Pater's Terminal Armour.
01:02 - Double Trouble + Fist + Laser Slicer
==========
Chainsaw for impact and Laser Slicer for damage. Two punches worth of damage is required while barely staying under the stagger extension limit.
01:31 - Middle Flatwell
==========
I did attempt to record a full mission, but gave that up really early when Flatwell kicked Pater out the chainsaw stunlock.
For his contribution, he is rewarded the Rubiconian handshake... made by Balam, an extraplanetary corp.
Recorded on a PS4, patch 1.06.01.
Equipments to note:
+VE-20C generator (128 energy weapon specialisation + high EN output).
+BASHO arm (158 melee attack specialisation).
Other parts are interchangeable, I simply pick parts that minimise the need to swap around when changing setups.
My personal rules are:
+ Not exceeding load limit.
+ Aim for true combo setups.
+ Aim for variety than just max damage setups.
Future patches will probably change stuff. Very likely will not do a follow up when it does.
