@@auroracorps5533 RJ kicks are tough to land. Many players know to just ascend if they see an RJ boosting at them. Hard lock definitely helps though. Additionally you can try to find opportunities to kick when the opponent isn't facing you. I like to dodge left or right during assault boost right before I'm in range to fake out the opponent and see how they will react. Animation locked opponents are also a good target. The best opportunity would be right after they miss a kick or fire a stanced shot. Sometimes you'll need to preemptively kick before you are in range (like 70m) iirc I'll need to verify this in game later. Anyway this is in effort to beat opponents that fly at you to dodge or counter kick. I've seen my AC kick through opponents that do this. Mainly it's a matter of figuring out how many ways your opponent can avoid your kicks and finding a good answer to respond with.

I agree. I was disappointed we didn't have more bosses like the strider.

Yeah the Dagger is amazing. Probably the best melee tbh but I have more fun with the slicer. 😊

@@DGENexMACHINA idk man nothing feels better than daggering someone then they pop bubble, only for you to assault Armour back into dagger lol

Absolute banger 🤘

Can't agree with you more on that. I've always felt like the attack the cradles mission was a missed opportunity to bring WG back for one last epic battle in the sky.

Yo it's the legend himself! Much appreciated man 😀

🙏 Much appreciated. Tell me how it goes.

​@DGENexMACHINA I didn't do too well with it in pvp. It's tailored for you so maybe I just need to get used to it. I seem to be favoring the NGI over Grid Walkers. I'm pretty sure I can make it work. The kit seems pretty flexible.

@@xephyrexe5246 yeah it requires some risky maneuvers and definitely requires some getting used to be able to read how to react correctly in certain situations. Running a non-standard lightweight in pvp is a tough task in general. I commend you for trying it out. 😊

@DGENexMACHINA I'm always running non standard builds.I might lean more into the plasma missile version with ngi for your build. What did you name your build btw?

👀 **prays to gridwalker for victory**

Much appreciated! Thanks for watching 😀

@@DGENexMACHINA no problem. looking forward to more videos 😎

Thanks 😁 Perhaps. It's all about finding your comfort zone. Kranich has been a solid pick for me though. Bubble guns are a criminally underrated Swiss army knife of utility.

Much appreciated fellow Lynx! 😎

Thanks for watching! My goal is to improve. Got any tips legend?

Yeah a few times. There's a player named Loyalbones who challenged himself to make it to S Rank using melee only. I played him a few times in A. Dropped the guns and went in laser slicer only. It was a crazy fun match. Unfortunately wasn't recording that one 😅

Tekken Core 6: Fires of Mishima

This game even has wallbounces ​@@DGENexMACHINA

Agreed. Pure high speed, fun. The type of encounters I live for!

Also,amazing build, and incredible video! It must have taken a lot of time to get all the footage and edit it so neatly!

Much appreciated. 😊 Good question. I don't play double melee much so I'm not sure if it's possible. Switching melee weapons mid combo may be the culprit though. If I had to guess, equipping something on the back right that can extend your opponents stagger time after the Harris may work. (Trueno maybe?) Kind of want to test this myself... Edit: Yeah. I couldn't get it either. Firing a back weapon didn't help. Like you said the LS wind up is too long. Pulse Blade, charged shot into laser dagger does work though.

@@DGENexMACHINA hey, really appreciate you looking into it! Glad to know it wasn't just a skill issue on my part. Pretty much came to the same conclusion as you did, with it just being mostly the sluggishness of certain weapon switches. Dagger is great because it swaps quick and it's a dream with slicer, but the charge tracking is leagues less reliable than blade because of how horizontal it is. Haven't practiced much with slicer as main weapon with how open it leaves you, but that might be interesting. A REAL combo is explosive thrower into slicer. Oof is it sweet, but finding supporting weaponry has been a pain. Hard to keep light with explosive thrower range. Just FYI, everything that's a problem with these set ups is completely fixed with a Zimmer...but who wants to use that? It also really limits your range options and forces you completely close range, where Harris neatly takes care of that issue. It's really a pick your poison situation there : either reliable combos or being able to poke at range vs tanks/kites. I do wonder if you're on to something with extending staggers, maybe with something that innately stuns, like the electrify status. I also wonder if bazookas/grenade launchers have any effect on stagger duration. The last two might not matter either way because of how long it takes to leave firing stance. I'll look into it! Great stuff, man! Definitely look forward to following more of your vids! 😁 Edit: Misread PB as slicer for the dagger combo. Honestly that sounds dope, can't believe I haven't thought of that!

@@DGENexMACHINA So testing it out seems to show that for double melee, it isn't really possible to melee in, charge shot Harris, and then QB/ weapon swap into punish with any weapon that isn't bunker with kikaku slide. However, the build is still possible, as PB and LS both combo into each other seamlessly if you use either of their charged attacks to trigger ACS overload. It is also obviously possible to use Harris shot into melee punish, as shown in your video - you just can't switch during. Additionally, raw PB charge can lead to an LS punish, you just need to use regular Harris shots or shoulder weapon to trigger stagger into LS punish. For whatever reason, if you charge attack INTO charged Harris, every melee punish will always drop combo. Charged LS into Harris and then PB can punish, but only to finish off with the first hit and would be invalidated by terminal armor. The build would play less aggressive than yours, with ranged harras to build stagger into big combo punish approaches. Thank you so much for your help! 😊

Glad you liked it 😀 Stay tuned.

I'll need to give that a try. A little on the heavy side but the tradeoff of a faster recharge seems worth it. I'm impatient on the ground and constantly redlining so coral works for me but that's also one of my skill issues lol.

If you're on PC you probably have... I've played an unhealthy amount of matches.

@@DGENexMACHINA I am on PC, all I remember of that natch was I was a chicken leg with dual miniguns and got combod to death almost instantly.

Much appreciated! Yeah the stagger system can be wild at times. I wish ACs had more health to allow for a chance to turn the match around after a single combo. The one's I use in the video are pretty modest and allow a bit of time escape but something like a double shotgun to the face followed up by 2 fully charged laser cannons are pretty much effortless and can end the match in a couple of seconds. Thanks for watching 😊

Dual Ducketts are pretty good, very similar to vientos with the caveat of their high recoil and short range. So you'll need to plan the build around those factors. Mainly the arms. I've had pretty good luck with the turner in one hand and Duckett in the other. Slightly less accumulative impact but more consistent since you're not reloading both weapons at the same time. I don't have much experience with the drones unfortunately but from playing against them they seem like a solid choice. Charging them and using as a stagger punish seems like a solid strategy in my experience.

Much appreciated. Thanks for watching! 🙏

Thanks 😁 Probably. I've faced a player with a build sorta like that. It was monstrous.

Do it! **Sephiroth theme plays**

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.

Definitely Anjou inspired.

Please do. It's a blast in pve

AC For Answer NEXT that had the laser wings

He was also in AC4

😂 I see what you did there.
