honestly this almost seems intended - the opponent can very clearly play around it by correctly predicting and countering when you're going to try to shoot/stop dodging, and it gives lightweights an almost dogfighting-like strategy to play around

Works both sides, the extra mobility allows the lighter AC to feint or just straight up stop shift boosting at times to break up repetition and add some variance in the combat It’s a dance, and it’s cool to see

Now that is a thing of beauty to see. Out of curiosity, why do you not always go for the punish on stagger? I’m guessing maybe threat of shield or assault armour but I’m curious.
@chromekittyking50869 ай бұрын
The reason against the heavy was because getting hit by a needle is basically fatal. So it wasn't worth punishing on the stagger only to the heavy to snag them with the needle aoe. Also some AC's have incredibly fast recovery, so if you're not already close with shots ready to go you don't always get to capitalize.
@chromekittyking50869 ай бұрын
Another thing to note is against heavier mechs with ballistic defense, is that you have to be in your ideal range to do full damage. Which seeing how Shift is using four shotguns is around 100m or less for ideal. So sometimes en and weapon range don't allow it.

because i guess the zimmermans feel like you're cheesing compared to the other shotguns where you're doing all the work yourself. but in the end the other shotguns, especially the multi barrel one, probably werent doing enough. too shitty or too cheesy, no middle ground. i hope fromsoft balances it out somehow and generally this build is more for fun than efficiency. he probably went through the same experience as me, experimenting first with handguns and smgs and shotguns and then melee weapons like dagger, piledriver, stun baton(in terms of fun they dont work out for high mobility because of the animation lock, and the fact that melee thrust is an entirely different stat from other boosts, forcing you to use kikaku), bullet orbits and missiles, then stunguns + melee, then back to pump shotguns because they require raw input, they aren't peashooters like smgs, and can stagger without having to sustain fire for a long time like handguns do, but then probably got a bit frustrated by the uphill battle against meta users so in need of more firepower ended up using zimmers as a compromise. which is pretty sad in a way

I wonder how well your AB tech will work with jamming bomb launcher since it'll break your opponent's lock-on into you going behind them, causing them to take time to find you again to re-lock on.
@Ashe44139 ай бұрын
The issue is how the jamming launcher works. It's like partial cover where you also lose target on anything through or in the smoke. In theory it'd be amazing for manual aiming against slower targets, but you'd also have to fire it early so the enemy isn't inside it, and then quick turn while keeping lock on, using the small window where the smoke's between you to break your opponent's lock-on

@@exo-gladius4805 yeah that disparity creates a lot of questions because there's no way to know how much anti-defense you're opponent has against certain things just based on what armor they are unless you memorized every stat light of the game. There's no just look at your opponent going oh okay so my bullets aren't going to do a whole lot so I have to change up my plan. It kind of makes the PvP feel a little one-sided at times like oh well I guess it was just nothing I could do they just outright beat me because they just chose parts that are good against what I'm using. So I then have to completely change my design and then what happens when I run into someone who's completely built against that. Well now I got to change my design again really limits what you can and can't do in the game. And it feels to flip of the coin. Do I get a match up that's really good for me or I'll shoot nope not this time. Like there's a bunch of stuff in the game just like you can't understand just by looking at what's going on. And I don't feel that so much should have to run one laser weapon just in case they run into a guy who has high defense against kinetic weapons.
