Project: "Minotaur"

Yeah, but if you're comparing it with the S3, well it has more stability.

[wanzerfreak]

anyway....


as promised, i tested this thing this afternoon and i figured i had to make a few changes from the initial prototype.

CHARGER

84e2 (+3 solid def, +7 en def)
eos(+5 cooling, +5 en def)
gibbon* (max cooling)
humanoid a2 (+7 cooling, + 3 en def) )
vulture2 (+2 power, +4 accell, +4 heat reduction)
g91 (max output)
ananada (max cooling)
volute*
medusa
gar2*
nymphe*
echidna2
b3
88s2
--
--

optionals: amino, es, la, kissyoh, l+, codon, marishi

here's the deal, this thing starts of overweight so you have to empty the echidna2 as fast you can at the start of the match. i like to launch the pod high above like a flare, i like the way the missles plummet their way to the target. once that's done, use standard OB tactics.

there's just one problem....the b3 isn't that great of a "jousting" weapon (it's more of a spammer weapon and doesn't generate enough stun to pin someone) and it takes precise timing to connect with the 88s2 during a jousting attempt, at least for a type B user like me.

in short, this thing handles like a rodeo bull. it takes a lot of skill, and perhaps type A controls, to tame this beast.

perhaps the leperdude can unleash the beast's full potential?

Its kinnda hard working on the weapons on your latest variant because of weight limitations. You could try the 69H + B2 I suppose, but that'll limit your ammo and all. Beyond that you'll prolly need hangers or a leg set that allows you to fit in the BP.

[wanzerfreak]

i've been considering the lycaon or the legs that i used on the Cataphract

[Lord_Leperman]

I wasn't really being fair with my previous comment because I didn't really test the AC out during my previous post. But now that I did, and you can actualy fit in the BP with ease.

E2
EOS
GIBBON
A2
F73H (or VOLUTE)
VULTURE2 (10 heat)
G91 (10 output)
ANANDA (10 cooling)
MEDUSA
GAR
NYMPHE
ECHIDNA2
BP
NIX (or R3 if you prefer more endurance, or SYLPH if you want something lighter)

Still has the A2 + E2 horns and hooves theme, and fully loaded after droping the ECHIDNA2. The NIX is mostly for the lock box buff, and a Spray-and-Pray-it-hits type of weapon for the last few dozen points of AP your opponent has... It is still a good weapon though when you get into the proper range.

no kidding

i'll get to work ASAP. thanks man!

[Lord_Leperman]

Ah, what about PIXIE3 + BP? That way you really don't have to worry about ammo and just focus on getting into close range. I just kinnda inverted the hand mounts thou

And use the spare weight for upgrading to the GAR 2 and MEDUSA2 perhaps.

[wanzerfreak]

alright, here it is:

CHARGER


(credit: grimlok)

84E2
EOS
GIBBONIMUS MAXIMUS (lolgrimlok )
A2
VOLUTE
VULTURE2 (6 power, 4 heat)
G91 (10 output)
ANANDA (10 cooling)
MEDUSA
GAR2 (for style points, it looks great with the gibbon and it matches the paintjob )
NYMPHE (gold)
ECHIDNA2 (gold)
BP (red)
69H (gold)

optionals: amino, es, la, kissyoh, l+, codon, marishi

alternate handmount combination: b3+88s2

i think i haven't unlocked the medusa2 yet and i don't really need it. again, thanks man!

update:

i switched to the the lotus+gull b/g combo to reduce weight. i think i don't need the ec. man, this thing handles far better than the g91+vulture2. i'm surprised that this thing doesn't heat up as i expected considering the fact that i have both the EOS and the GULL.
