MOST OF THE TERMS FROM RAVEN'S AC DICTIONARY:

Quote:---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Backpedaling - A cowardly, and somewhat underhanded, technique in which the player walks (or boosts) backwards either to 1. Get the enemy to mindlessly follow in order to pummel the enemy with constant fire, or 2. In arena to move toward the border in an attempt to make the enemy cross when they try to go to your backside, resulting in a cheat win.

Important Note: This technique not only does not work against Human opponents, but the use of Backpedaling for these uses will result in your loss.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beefed-Up Standard - An AC with a Standard Chassis, euipped with better boosters, generator, radiator and weapons to maximizes the standard leg unit's high weight capacity. Often used by bored players to test/train themselves. Long time usage may result to better maneauvering, timing and accuracy.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Blitzer This design of AC is basiclly a lightweight fitted with heavier, stronger, limited ammo weapons designed to inflict heavy damage to an opponent as quickly as possible. Usually a blitzer is made to be purposelly overweight to fit the heavy weapon status, but equipped with a back up blade and lightweight machine gun such as the "finger". Blitzer's arn't as common as most of the other types of AC's but may see usage in the new Armored Core 4 due to the fact that more AC's can appear onscreen.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boost Drifting - A maneauver used by experienced players. The AC is boosted sideways, then executes a jump [also sideways], then moves to the opposite direction with the same movement right after landing. It was a result of players finding out that the generator charges faster when off the ground, helping them conserve more energy. Often used with high power boosters with a quick charging generator.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Broken - A part or parts, which are usually considered overly cheap or "cheesy" due to their 'uber' stats. A good example are the MG arms from Nexus

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bullet-Sponge - Probably the most bizarre is the Bullet-Sponge design, which is also known as the "armored armored core". This core is designed to literally absorb large amounts of damage. A while ago, with the battles becoming more of a damage race, the so-called AAC has arisen, and has also given rise to an arms race in the Armored Core universe. Typically they are equipped with a tank platform and are given heavily armored parts and are also tuned to withstand heavy damage. Now, they are mostly equipped with solid weapons. This is because an AC can't use energy weapons on low power. Second, in Nexus and so forth, the AC will quickly heat up, making energy weapons ever more useless unless the AC has a good radiator (which won't be enough to defeat the heat.) This is why a tank platform works best with the design, not only for defence, but to load more weight as well as use cannons. These are quite popular among the beginner players as well as the higher up. Of course, being ridiculously slow, they don't do so well on trying to cover their backs, the most vulnerable part of an AC. Another weakness is their defence on a particular element. Usually armor with high solid resistance can't defend well against energy weapons. To make up for both weaknesses, a player may use high-heat weapons (such as a railgun) to drain energy from an enemy's generator, preventing them from using anything that uses or shoots energy. The heavy, solid resistant armor will protect the AC from damage from a solid projectile.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cheese Bot - An AC built mostly compromising of the best and/or cheesiest parts. These designs are often very powerful and difficult to beat with a "non-cheesy" AC, even when used by good pilots. Cheese Bots are frowned upon as being a "cheap way to win", unless the intention was to create a cheesy design for use against another Cheese Bot.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DeFAC (Death From Above Core) - A type of core seen used mostly by the computer players, it is only suggested for absolute experts at energy conservation and aiming. Usually equipped with a high powered generator with excellent energy production values and a low heat and low power booster, they execute the maneuver known as "boost hopping" until they are slightly above their target and then move in to incredibly close range and blitz their enemy. Common armaments vary widely depending on the player but it is not unusual to see a combination of rifles and rockets being used. The missiles take too long to achieve a lock and any sort of energy weapon would drain too quickly from their generators. Since the inception of the "hover booster" extension parts, the frequency of the DeFAC has increased.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dual Wielder - Dual wielding usually consists of two ranged weapons on both non-weapon arms. Dual machine guns, shot guns, rockets, and other weapons have been used.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hybrids - In short, a mix of variable parts. Either consisting in a mix of MW (Mid Weight) parts and LW(Light Weight) parts or any other somewhat odd pairing of parts, it is quite debated on what constitutes as a hybrid - Kewne

A: Defense-Offense Hybrid - An AC with High Defense and Attack Ratings. The attack rating isn't measured by the AC's offensive rating in the Performance Option, but rather, with the equipped weapons' raw attack power. One of the 2 most used hybrids. - Serene

B: Mobility-Offense Hybrid - A Highly Maneauverable AC fitted with High Attack Weapons. The attack power measurement is the same as DOHybrid but, works very well with lowattack/rapidfire weapons like machineguns. The other most used hybrid. - Serene

C: Defense-Mobility Hybrid - The Type of AC that lasts long in battle. Usually composed of a combination of heavy, defensive parts on midweight legs, because of this, the DMHybrid can only be equipped with the lightest weapons, and even have a limited weapon selection, making this the least used hybrid. - Serene

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juggernaut - This term refers to extremely heavy weight humanoid leg cores laden with high powered weaponry, heavy armor, and are noted for having extremely limited ammo. Commonly the first type of core for many players to develop, it is looked upon as being a bit of a starter core. One of the most notable combination of weapons is the Karasawa and Moonlight combo. With the redevelopment of these weapons in later installments, it continues to be a popular Juggernaut design.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Left Handed AC - A much newer AC design since the creation of the right arm blades. The AC is armed with a strong left arm rifle, combined with either a Rasetsu, Enma or Nioh. It is made more for close to middle ranged combat , compared to the right handed.
This setup is also capable of multi firing, [Left Arm Gun + Back Cannon/s + EO], making this design a little more destructive.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Missile Boat - As the name suggest, this particular core type is laden with missile exclusive weaponry, whether the right arm unit or weapon arms missiles are used. In the original incarnation of the Armored Core series, it was common for the Missile boat to be constructed over a quad leg base, but with the addition of the hover legs, the non de plume has been extended over this category also.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ninja - A kind of "shadowy" core, it is designed to defeat the enemy though stealth and back-stabbing. It is often colored black (sometimes uses camo colors for a particular environment) These designs tend to catch the enemy player by suprise. Often they are equipped with stealth equipment such as ECM to jam radar and lock-on. They're also very quick and use a blade. To avoid further attention, they also use a hover platform, which tends to be very silent during movement. However, ever since the discovery of the PoD (poke of doom) players have switched to a quad-leg platform (very noisy) or a tank (very slow). Now, with the addition of the parrying blade (a substitute PoD), the player can achieve mobility without sacrificing speed, stealth, or offence. However, it comes at the price of accuracy and range. This is why Ninja cores are reserved for the very best.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Orbit Platform - Seen most commonly used with the hover legs, this core utilizes only orbit cannon based weaponry. Of the fan categorized cores, this type is the newest in its inception.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PLOW - This term was given to those who use Human Plus option obtained from using cheating devices or OP-I optional part, and building your AC to be overweight. An example would be a fast lightweight AC equipped with Back mounted grenade launches and dual Kurasawas to vastly over power an opponents AC. PLOW comes from the words human PLus and OverWeight

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PoD (Poke of Doom/Death) - This is a term used to describe the form of blading used by quad leg and tank types. When using a standard blade using quad or tank leg, the arm forces the blade into an opponent, effectively impaling them. This is a much more efficient means of attacking using the blade as the 4 strike points in the AOE from using a blade is focused into one point, unlike using other leg types which generates an arch, thus substantial damage can be inflicted upon an opponent. Due to the loss of blade tracking in Nexus onward, this technique has been rendered all but useless to the modern player

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Revivals - Retro AC designs based off the box covers and actually ac's from previous Armored core Series

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right Handed AC - An AC armed with it's stronger and more used arm weapon on it's right arm. It may be dual wielded or blade equipped.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Samer Launcher - a tank-legged AC which usually carries either hi-act verts, or torpedos on the back. This has been used widely in where I live, and is meant to counter ACs that are meant to stay in the air. Usually both back slots are taken with the missiles.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Samurai - A type of core used only by expert players and hardcore veterans. The "Samurai" type cores are equipped exclusively with blade based weaponry. They often times have high mobility and since the inclusion of the dual blade weapon arms this variety has seen more action. Rarely this type of core can be equipped with a combination of the solid blade right arm weapon and the laser blade left arm part.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stun Blading - Stun blading is using the effectiveness of using a stunning weapon, such as a grenade launcher, linear cannon, or certain types of handguns to freeze or stun an enemy momentarily to set them up for being hit with the P.o.D.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sniper - Sometimes being looked down upon as a "coward's AC", it is a design that literally focuses on long range attacks. Being a sniper, it designed for speed, stamina, and long-ranged combat. Even with the introduction of the Over Boost function, the Sniper still serves as a formidable foe. It serves as an extremely dangerous, and annoying, foe, for the traditionally close-ranged designs. The Sniper also goes by the name "Archer" for designs that use weapons with an "arched" line of fire or "Bomber" for designs using bomb dispensers.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spamming - In short this is the act of flooding your opponent with everything you have, quickly and to somewhat an effect. Unlike conserving your ammunition, this form of combat has contributed to the recent "AP Race" in which most battles are fought in which its a race to see who loses as participants generally believe a long drawn out fight is suicide. Spamming is usually attributed to those using either missiles or machine guns (Thank Grimoire and Ixidor).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Specialized AC units - Any Armored Core that possesses the characteristics of two or more different types of AC units. The advantage is increased firepower and adaptability without sacrificing some the required stats of the AC type and the disadvantages are the loss of spare arm weight and decreased defense.

Examples: An AC with the weapons of a middleweight and the speed of a lightweight, see Hybrid

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Underweighting - A useful trick by putting lighter weight parts on an AC to keep the leg weight to a minimum which increases the top speed of an AC. The advantage is higher speed but the disadvantages are lower defense, low stablity, and if playing LR hard landing time and frequency increases and your parts break quicker as well.

Quit it with the self-pitying dude, that won't help you at all.

And AC letter grades, as with almost all of the AC games, do not dictate how good your AC actually is.

Definitely not nice for your system man...

If you're fond of Plus though I'd like to recommend something...

I suggest using the search option and type in 'red warrior'.

Try that AC.
It's a PLOW Alternative.
