Neurolimal posted:Alright, just started as Neurolii, wasted all my starting cash in a desperate attempt to get one of my fave suits from SDGO (Custom Efreet), got a Zaku Tank instead (i think) which is apparently good according to the OP. How long do I need to play before I can click the atom icon and join fellow goondams? There is no restriction to joining the guild right away after making a character. The sooner the better, as part of the guild you get more GP from clan challenges/rankings as well as customization bonuses. Send in your guild-application ASAP, I'll get you in. OP is a little outdated, best cheap suit right now imo is the Zaku marine. Guided missiles(Strong harassment), powerful bazooka F(Big in current meta), and can wield a shotgun(Very strong in current meta). Stats are pretty modest(Well, mobility is quite a bit better than the zaku tank) but it's a rather cheap and effective suit. Free Triangle fucked around with this message at 12:51 on May 16, 2014 |

If you got the Efreet, you'd have to hope for a good trait and then money to upgrade it to be on par with other suits. I hope you get it though. Talk to Kacho for tips on how to build it. He's like a tech rep from Zimmand.

randombattle posted:I'm finally not completely entirely broke so I'm gonna find a new vpn and get back in on some gundams. Nice to see an old player returning. If you haven't played since the UC 0080 update, you should have DX tickets waiting in the mail! I recommend using them on the Kampfer DX, the suit is amazing. As for the VPN, Consider Mudfish. It's really cheap. It's pay as you go as well, so no pressure to get the most of your timed subscription from WTFast. I've spent 5 bucks on it 5 months ago and still have 4 dollars of credit left. Be aware that only two Tokyo VPN servers on it work with Gundam, Linode and Softbank. They don't have the lowest possible ping you could get from a Tokyo VPN, about +20-30 ping compared to WTFast.

Took your advice and it helped. Oh, I got a Gelgoog Jager, Assault Act Zaku and an Efreet (silver). Got any thoughts/advice on the three? I already built the Jager with the auto long rifle and it's easy to use while I crouch. I saw a group of guys just slaughtering people with the Efreet. I'm assuming they have the DII heat saber because guys were getting knocked down. It looks pretty impressive. I haven't seen anyone using the Assault Act Zaku. Is there any reason why?

I'm assuming they have the DII heat saber because guys were getting knocked down. It looks pretty impressive. I haven't seen anyone using the Assault Act Zaku. Is there any reason why? Gelgoog J is really good in sniper duels because it can have enough armour(Need at least 1761) to not get 1 shotted by Charged Sniper F. You don't instantly lose if you get hit by this(Unless it was a back/headshot), so you have a chance to fall back and keep your kill streak. You might think that the size of the suit makes it worse for sniper duels, but the armor makes up for it. Beam Machinegun F full auto has similar power to Beam Rifle FAF, but has very low base range(840, as opposed to type N's 960), same rate of fire as type N. You're ranged traited however so this is a very strong option. If you have a knack for making this work in the mid-short range, then keep using it. Yup. Only DII heat sword with Efreet has a two-stage boost attack. Most of those guys pack a shotgun as a sidearm as well, to knockdown people that jump away from them. Unfortunately, silver Efreet doesn't pack the DII sword. Assault Act Zaku had it's time before the Kampfer came out, stat-wise it's similar to the high mobility-spec Gelgoog. It has less armor but it's a smaller target than a Gelgoog so it has an easier time dodging. Gold Assault Act Zaku has access to charged beam rifles, which has potential to knockdown aerial targets. You can arm it a lot of ways depending on trait. Some popular builds: Ranged/Quick Reload Trait Beam rifle FAF/Empty/Bullpup/Shield No bazooka F, but this puts very heavy ranged pressure on your target. Quite good balance, since you discard a weapon. Bullpup F/Axe D/Bazooka F/Shield More conventional and light, bullpup F's DPS is comparable to high end beam rifles. Gold Beam Shooter Charged Beam Rifle F/Axe D/Bullpup/No Shield You can't charge a beam rifle while blocking, so the shield is discarded here. Plays similar to the Heavy Act Zaku's charged beam game(Score knockdown/Stagger then boost axe them), except you have better speed and melee in exchange for less armour. Silver Beam Shooter Beam Rifle FAF/Nothing/Bazooka F/No Shield Popular in the meta because of shotguns. High balance, immune to shotgun knockdowns that are not type F. This is effectively the spec you see ProtoGundams/Alex use. If you aren't beam shooter replace the beam rifle for a bullpup and get even better balance.

Tonight is a bad time, there will be an 8 hour maintenance in like 2 hours. They gave out a LOT of free stuff recently though, so you might want to hop on just to collect all of it. As for me school work is picking up again, so I usually marathon-play on Fridays and the weekend around 7:00 PST, sometimes earlier. Wednesday nights around 7:00 PST are usually coop night, though I don't stick around to play too much after. Typically I just gather a group ad-hoc style through steam, if we have open spots I fill it with pubbies. Free Triangle fucked around with this message at 00:24 on May 21, 2014 |

It's nice to have if you're making long shots, so that you don't have to make your first shot a calibrating shot/hard read. Otherwise, yeah, the green square doesn't have much application at short ranges. Also, new balance changes next week's patch: GM Light Armour and ALL Dom variants get increased load capacity Shield Buff: On a successful guard, stagger/falling resistance is doubled, EXCEPT vs melee weapons. Blocking shotguns/rockets with a shield is more viable now. New event next week's patch as well, you can get items that will sell for good GP, from 10,000GP to 50,000GP. Very nice, especially if you are starting out.

I read the rules, it said you get a completion for every time you finish a challenge, and they divide the pool by the total number of completions, where you get one divided share per each completition up to the personal max. So yeah, duplicates ahoy. But yeah the instadeath thing is much more intense now. Even gatling guns will kill me like one second. I always played a slow style with lots of guns and melee along with the bazooka, but I'm basically dropping the guns and melee from now on.

New Gundam Side-Story suits are coming in June! It's a cross-promotion with the PS3 Game's release. Gundam Pixie(Fred Wolf's Spec, Assault Mobile Suit) A Higher cost Pixie(Original is 280 cost), I'm betting this will be an incredibly strong melee oriented suit. Yeah, it looks kinda goofy in those screenshots. Ifrit Schneid (Heavy Weapons Mobile Suit) Wasn't expecting this one to be a heavy type. I'll probably pick one up, since I'm a fan of the heavy spec bazookas, looks like it will have a strong melee option too. Free Triangle fucked around with this message at 00:57 on May 29, 2014 |

Eh I ended up back in gold pretty fast, the 20 kill requirement is too easy to hit in silver. I don't know, this new advancement system seems pretty terrible so far. Making every game about getting points seems unnecessarily stressful for people who care about their ranks, and for everyone else it just means you ping-pong back and forth between ranks quickly since 120 minutes is a pretty tiny sample size where a few bad games can instantly tank your evaluation.
