RE: Tadakatsu Biped - Lord_Leperman - 09-29-2008

Am I reading that right? Your booster is the B69, the starter booster set? Tongue Anyway Go gull under your current setup Tongue.

Can't say much on the blader concept on a design. I don't really use the, and only have 1 in my garage that has a blade (an EVA-01 knockoff I use just for kicks). Maybe others can give a better opinion on blading and the weapons that complement it.

I do however have some frame suggestions.

The parts are pretty good, though LH89F is a bit too heavy for this design. The low drain and disproportionately high shell defense would counter balance the EN defense and high drain of other parts in your setup, but I think there are better alternatives depending on your bias. From there you could try the 80S2 which gives a nice shell defense bonus without the heavy weight of the 98F, or go for the high turning mids like the COUGAR2 and DINGO2, which is pretty important for melee fighters in order to reacquire a target faster. Just downgrade the FUDOH to the G91 and get the VULTURE2 to save on weight for the changes. The arms have a good alternative in the name of LORIS which are lighter but drainier as well, but proportionately give very good defense for their weight.

IMO the size of the lockbox is more important than lock on range (especially much more important on PvP), so I would suggest the MONJU for your current weapon set for its big box for SP locks and the fast lock-on time for your missiles. As for missiles, I'd suggest the SYAKATSURA for their ability to relentlessly pursue opponents for one of the back mounts, or verts for hiding opponents in open areas to be able to herd your opponents for a proper blade strike. Different missiles will determine how you want to engage your opponent, and your current setup says "head-on". There are other ways of doing this, mix and match missile combinations as you please. Hand weapons are already good for a blader IMO and I don't think need any changes.

So to do it Wanzer style Tongue:

Head: YH15-DRONE
Core: CR-C98E2
Arms: A09-LEMUR2 ------> (LORIS as an alternative, though the LEMUR2 might be to your liking)
Legs: CR-LH89F ----------> (80S2 or DINGO/COUGAR2)
Booster: CR-B69 ---------> (Anything else Tongue VULTURE2 preferably)
FCS: CR-F82D2 -----------> (MONJU)
Generator: FUDOH -------> (G91 for extra output)
Radiator: ANANDA
Inside: NONE
Extension: NONE
Back Unit R: WB01M-NYMPHE SMALL MISSILE
Back Unit L: KINNARA MICRO MISSILE
Arm Unit R: CR-WR93RL LINER RIFLE
Arm Unit L: CR-WL06LB4 LASER BLADE


RE: Tadakatsu Biped - wanzerfreak - 09-29-2008

^my style is for lazy bums like me hehehehehe Big grin



anyway,

the 89F is good for the AP, solid def, and weight cap. but these aren't what bladers need. what bladers need are speed or the ability to get within striking distance in the shortest amount of time, more than anything else. the leg sets that leperdude mentioned will give you the mobility. but i recommend you use an OB core against a decent human. you don't need OB against the AI though, because they will always come at you.

you should go check out heavenflame's videos on youtube. she's the blade queen.

Heres my best attempt at a good energy bassed setup

HeadBig grinrone

Tuned for half of both defenses

Core: C7SU2

Tuned for both defenses (Half)

Legs:Cougar 2

Tuned entirely for max leg weight

Booster:Gull

Tuned for heat

Gen:FUDOH

Tuned half weight half output

Arms:Maque

Tuned half cooling half shell defense

FCS:F82d2

EXT:E82552

Back R:SATRYOS

Back L:Kinnara

Arm R: python

Arm L: Silky

Rad:Ananda

Tuned cooling


RE: Tadakatsu Biped - wanzerfreak - 09-30-2008

drop the kinnara. try other more reliable missile packs.

you could use some missile relation extensions.

the fudoh has a huge cap but low output. the frame looks a bit drainy to me. if you are comfortable with this, fine. otherwise, you could use the g91+vulture2 combo. it doesn't have a huge cap but it has great output so you will replenish the energy bar a lot quicker.

the python needs to go. it sucks even against the AI. try the shade. two energy arm mounts puts a lot of stress on your gen cap. you could replace the silky with the nix, r3, 1hp, etc...

and drop the D2 for the volute.


RE: Tadakatsu Biped - NiX - 09-30-2008

I won't stop you from using either the Silky or the Python. But please, please, please, not at the same time. >_< Each is pretty bad on its own already.

Excellent choice in the Satyros. The Kinnara's okay too. But again, maybe not at the same time.

Oh and the SS2 extensions aren't worth the weight on a biped.

This unit WILL be overweight unless weight tunes are made.
I have optionals just cant remember what they are,I know the 2 defense boosters are in there (Anyone not use those?)


Kinnara has been dropped cuz I know im never going to be able to hit a human player with them.However nymph 2 was added and ive been doing well with it.As for the silky on the left arm i like it because Ive fallen in love with the enrgy weapon thing.However with extended use it drains energy like mad,so sometimes ill switch it for LB4.

Description of AC:next step in the ridiculously long line of tadakatsu remakes.Unit utilizes energy weapon setup,going as far as to call itself "The second Bolt".Unit ,unlike most of its passed forms lacks kinnara, and has no form of micro-missiles. Units combat style differs depending on the areas space,however it remains primarily a mid or close range combatant.

(I decided to start putting in descriptions on my new AC versions,the line is getting long I know,but im trying to find the right AC for me.Which is very hard)

Bow to tadakatsu Worship


RE: Tadakatsu Biped - Tadakatsu1Honda - 10-03-2008

sorry for the bump,I just really need help


RE: Tadakatsu Biped - NiX - 10-03-2008

G91-gull-ananda is VERY risky, though it does provide your AC with the much needed energy. But still, I suggest against it.

nymphe1 or even the 69m is better than the nymphe2. Nymphe2's flight path is just too weird.

and again, please choose between the python and the silky but don't use them at the same time. Either one isn't good in the first place and using both at the same time is just suicide.

I made this as good as possible.


RE: Tadakatsu Biped - NiX - 10-05-2008

And indeed it is now good as possible, save for the backmounts. But if you really like your backweapons, they're fine as is.


RE: Tadakatsu Biped - Tadakatsu1Honda - 10-05-2008

I like my back mounts,and im good with this setup.This will be my main.Thanks all who helped me with this.
