I'll let the fight vid explain itself: <a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FSEf1PmWRw' target='_blank'>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FSEf1PmWRw</a>

I just love the way it looks

[Twin-Skies]

Yeah, I remember fighting this beast... grrrr

Here's an additional vid from my PoV

would've been a lot more meaner with the rm3 exts. though

plus, you alrady have good cooling with the frame parts. tuning the v2 to max heat reduction is just overkill. might as well tune it to max power.


and one more thing,

can i borrow some design elements? :bigsmile:

[Lord_Leperman]

Wanzer: I'll think about the tunes, I got stuck with the NX/NB habit of tuning booster heat. It worked somewhat and prevented me from overheating, but I'll test the idea of tuning boost power though since the design has trouble catching up with speedier designs as shown in the vid.

Go ahead, take what you need. What aspect of the design if I may ask?

Twin Skies: If you didn't get stuck on that wall near the end of the fight, you might have a good chance of winning that fight. But other than that, you could have played a keep-away game a lot more.

how about................EVERYTHING! BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHA. j/k. :bigsmile:

i'm interested in the RL+BP combo.

oh btw, the selena has some problems hitting targets even at close range. i think my version would be equipped with the gaea...or the eos instead. hehehe.

oh btw, i don't think multilock missiles work well with the volute series.....but since you have dual sp locks, why not change the mv instead? i have a middleweight design but i don't like it because 1. i hate middleweights and 2. it uses too many common parts. anyway, my back mounts are the 69m with RM3 support and the kinnara. i think it could work best on your design instead of mine. the 69m+RM3 is for accurate sniping while you can spam with the kinnara and sneak in a few BP shots.

what do you think?

[Lord_Leperman]

Yeah, your right about the SELLENA being inaccurate. The EOS does sound tempting along with the FUDOH/LOTUS + GULL (Although I want the FUDOH a lot more). Unfortunately, I think I've lost my touch with OB designs so the change might be bad for me... on the otherhand, I could re-learn OB again for the sake of better range control.

As for the missiles, I'd prefer something that allows me to control range like the MVs which have an indirect tragectory, forcing opponents to close in, and allowing for the AC to 'possibly' sneak up on an opponent's range game. The 69M + RM3 kinnda feels redundant with the KINNARA and the BP on the left hand as direct fire weapons, although I see where you're coming from. On a side note, the 69M + BP sounds like a nice idea if used in conjunction with each other.

Sad thing about the design though, the JACKAL2 just seems to carry too much risks for it to be a competitive part as much as I like the way the AC looks with it (This is not to say that the JACKAL2 is a bad part, but the alternatives like the FA and 81AP legs look better on paper).

[NiX]

This AC looks hauntingly familiar to my Obelisk AC from Silent Line, if you still remember it. Hahah

Anyways, Maitreya and I tried it out. It's got some serious defense while having serious close-range firepower. But we found that it had difficulty against range controlling snipers. But maybe you use it differently from how we did.

Anyways, here are some suggestions:

I think the A2 arms might be better. You lose quite a bit of shell defense but almost everything else improves.

I also understand that you've got the VOLUTE to make sure that all your shots count. But I think that VOLUTE2 or F73H will be better here because you'll be able to use your missiles from a greater distance to force opponents to go closer.

And maybe I'd use DRONE for the head but that's a matter of choice.

Everything else I'll keep as is. RL and BP can hold their own in mid-range and the SELENA discourages anyone from going too close while your missiles can pressure from afar. Turning speed leaves a lot to be desired though. Overall, good job.

[wanzerfreak]

well...it turns out that it's impossible to mount the BP and RL on the gaea without "downgrading" to lighter arms. :sad:


might as well use hanger or ob cores instead....

[Lord_Leperman]

Well, I tried doing that to but the risks outweigh the benefits. (slightly higher offensive capabilities for almost a 100 less shell defense)

On a side note, my tourney AC will be based on a similar design to this. Same color scheme as well :excited:

I also incorporated some suggetions, addressing issues such as missile lock times.

[azuma-blade]

wow astig ng set-up kahit overweight pumapatay hehehe

[Lord_Leperman]

Azuma-blade: Di sya talaga OW, baklasin mo ung is sa mga missile launchers sa umpsa para di sya OW :tongue:

[Serene]

Ah... Kahit OW talaga ang AC, kaya talagang pumatay...
Wala namang effect ang weight sa attack power di ba?
Mobility? Oo...
