    Hello everyone! I'm the creator of MICROWAVE-N, and it's truly humbling to have been ranked 1st place in this competition. I've been a fan of Armored Core for a long time, so it really makes me happy to be able to give something to the community that (hopefully!) they will enjoy. All of the other builds are great fun to play with too! The first build I saved was essentially CALLSIGN NULL with quad legs. And congratulations to all the contest winners! I'm particularly fond of BLIND RIOT for its unique playstyle, the Initial D AC got a chuckle out of me, KINGFISHER is remarkably similar to the AC I beat the game with, and MP4-23 looks stylish as hell.
    Another interesting detail about MICROWAVE-N is that it's basically the ONLY possible build that uses the 4 pulse guns with the VE-20B generator. As stated in the video, it only has 4 EN to spare with every other part having nearly the lowest-in-class EN Load. I originally didn't know if it would even be possible, but it came together so perfectly in the end. And it really does melt enemies, I S-ranked like 90% of the missions with it. That's why I love Armored Core, theorycrafting a build and actually having it pay off with its performance is what makes these games special to me.

When you select a piece you can choose "edit gradient" and there's one that's a radial gradient that fades out at the edges. Then I just stretched it to roughly match the rectangle.

    Hopefully these are useful to some of you still going through NG+ and NG++ (which I'd highly recommend since there are new endings and a ton of unique missions!)
    I should also mention, these builds are mainly designed for PvE. They're not meta for PvP, by any means. That said, their unique playstyles can easily catch people off-guard in PvP!
    Are they the best builds in AC6? No, probably not. But I reckon they're still pretty good and it was fun trying all these new things. What are your best builds?

      I LOVE the light, super fast builds. Those feel like they have the highest skill ceiling to me, at least in PVE. It’s extremely difficult to get a (mostly) Nachtreiher build through every single boss. Sometimes Kasuar head if I have the EN to spare for its attitude stability. I did have to switch a few times due to my own skill level, but I did get a NUMBER of the insanely difficult bosses with it. So I’m definitely going to be downloading a couple of these. Might try out some of the weird ones who knows ❤

    I likes how the cost of ammo in earlier armor core games sort of forced you to try energy weapons (since they had no ammo cost). Took me until NG++ to start using them in play with AC6.

    • @marbeano1786
      @marbeano1786 7 месяцев назад +13

      Its actually quite the opposite, previous AC tittle forces you to not use energy weapons (aside from melees). Energy guns in previous armored core games, not only have very little ammo, but it also depletes your fuel.

    • @Captain1nsaneo
      @Captain1nsaneo 7 месяцев назад +30

      @@marbeano1786 That's not the case with AC games on PS1 and PS2, energy weapons in those have free ammo but take power from your generator to use. I never had a problem with their ammo counts. They're a decent way of getting more cash out of each mission.
      There's some exceptions iirc to free ammo in the later games, with plasma maybe.

    I'm actually quite surprised, as I ended up making the competition winning build on my own, along with nearly exact replicas of the WORKER BEE, ALBINAURIC, and THROW TRUE. Most of what was different with mine were the exterior pieces. I haven't watched a ton of build videos, only a few from oroboro, but I've just been spending a crazy amount of time in the garage, and I find it funny how I came up with many of the same builds that were in this video.

    "Terminal Rummy" is a similar concept to the build I used to clear ng++, with a few variants built around the saw, pile bunker and laser slicer. I was actually inspired by Ortus for the basic concept. It's very close to my ideal AC6 lightweight build, with a couple important tweaks.

  • @maxtheawesome4255
    @maxtheawesome4255 7 месяцев назад +10

    A quirk you didn't catch on was that you can charge left hand weapons while shielding. You cannot shoot, but you can charge. Pair a shield with a charging weapon such as a Laser Shotgun. My best build pairs this with a gatling gun/flamethrower. By sticking to a target and simply out-tanking everything, you generally win.

    I suspected the same with the chainsaw. If you wait until stagger to swap in, you miss the attack; gotta charge up early and manage the enemy’s ACS Overload. My AC Thunderdome runs something similar but uses a bullet orbit on the right shoulder to replace the stagger pressure I lose when I swap into chainsaw on the left. It’s fantastic to see that others have come up with something both similar AND faster than my build! Gonna have to try this one!

    That delayed shock stun is something I ended up using for a build I called "Sparky", which centered pretty much entirely on shock based weapons. I used the shock needle shoulder gun used to fight ice worm, where essentially after hitting a charged attack with the melee weapon, I'd immediately shoot the needle, this usually caused a full stagger and shock proc, which I then followed up with a full combo of the melee weapon. In the other hand, I ended up using an smg and shock pistol I would swap between. Is it OP? Kind of in some circumstances (AC fights dying well before they could heal once), but more than anything it was just fun to really mix things up and play with the mechanics in a unique way.
    The strongest build I ended up making though is one I called "Boom Stick". It's just quad shotguns (2 zimmermans, 2 of the other starter shotguns). Not that inspired, but it was really fun learning how to shoot them all optimally while still keeping track of good movement. The key is to shoot a shotgun, swap it for another, and then shoot the other hand's shotgun, swap it for another, repeat. Doing this maximizes output, since shooting prevents shoulder swapping on the other side for a brief time. It's honestly just a ton of fun and feels really cool with some practice. To top it all off, it basically makes any boss super easy, since they're constantly getting stunned and taking massive damage... The shotguns should really be nerfed.

    • @raiffesilva4908
      @raiffesilva4908 7 месяцев назад

      Later you can upgrade the starter shotguns for the six shooter shotgun, it actually deals more damage than the Zimmermans if you shoot them from point blank, so you have a nice loop of zimmerman from medium range -> assault boost -> six shooter -> kick .

    Honestly for me I had the most fun building a nimble AC that could do constant pressure, I enjoy being aggressive in games while avoiding any counters so I built my main AC around that fact. As this was my first Armored Core game it took me a while to truly build an AC that I could be proud of. It was only after unlocking the laser pistols and plasma launchers did I know I had the right offense, I could stagger shoot the pistols to have the constant dps that I wanted and use the plasma launchers as a quick dps boost to either put them in stagger or hit them while staggered, essentially my burst option. I didn't get the movement down until my first fight with the Ibis series AC underground. That's when I experimented with legs outside of the basic bipedal finding the reverse joint to be exactly what I needed. Once I equipped them the build for me was perfect, I honestly could make another build that fits my playstyle any better. The absolute joy of experimenting with both your playstyle and crafting a mech to match that is something that I haven't been able to find in any other game. Thank you so much for the in depth reviews you did on Armored Core back before 6 released, while I had planned on buying AC6 anyway because I trust Fromsoft to make quality games. You truly gave me the confidence that I'd enjoy the game so I bought it as soon as I could instead of waiting like I usually do.

  • @HunterForHire422
    @HunterForHire422 7 месяцев назад +1

    Making a build based on my favorite ps2 game was when i knew this game was one of my favorites.
    Based on Shinobi i have 2 "kunai" weapons via the nail handgun, the laser launcher to represent the scroll power that shoots tracking green beams, and a plasma blade for the sword on an incredible fast but fragile 8500 AP build that excels in ground movement but struggles in the air just like the ps2 game. Even my legs have the same kick animation that you have in Shinobi. Its amazing how wildly different these two games are yet i was able to recreate it so closely

    I've seen so many "OP/easy mode" Core builds that rely on NG++ equipment with piles of specialized OS tuning chips. It's so great to see builds on this list are tailored to the gear available at certain chapters. It's also fun to see how far you can push the game even with those more pedestrian parts.
    One thing worth pointing out, though: It might be nice to see the original creators credited in the Google Doc. As it is, the doc just goes from your builds to their builds with no indication that some of them were cooked up by other players.

Eventually when I was still struggling to s rank I switched to two electric needle launchers and the Lazer lance plus a minigun on the arquebus heavy bi ped build and it worked for most things.

    I created something very similar to your worker bee. It focuses on using the laser lance to setup the plasma thrower for huge damage. Right hand is a pulse gun, right shoulder is the diffuse laser cannon used the same way you use the little laser shotgun. It uses reverse joint legs to attack from above like final fantasy lancer. It was my go to on any mission that challenged me my first time through the game.

    I had a similar build to the “worker bee” but instead I had the the sweet sixteen in the weapon bay with just fists in the right hand and the jumpy fast legs, got S rank on any ac vs ac (or multiple ac) missions. If you get good at melee canceling you can basically just zoom at targets and just constantly melee and ACS overload them. The fists are surprisingly effective so if you’re low on carry weight, consider leaving one hand empty and putting your right weapon on your shoulder.

    Seeing so many interesting and diverse playstyles and their ACs is really cool. I'm barely through Chapter 3, but I've found myself overly reliant on one build that has yet to really fail me. That being said, I still give some consideration to other builds styles, and ended up making the Burnished Gold on my own. The real kicker was how fun and surprisingly effective it was, despite the wildly different playstyle I had to take on with it. I'm a first time AC player, and have so far been loving what I've seen, and I'm excited to do so many playthroughs with so many playstyles

    @arieltimeshrine8137 7 месяцев назад

    I find that simply assault boosting diagonally upwards is enough with a biped build and the VP-20C (along with almost definitely the VP-20S) to keep me in the air indefinitely, and does not require melee or kick spamming. The Eternal Fall build allows you to maintain fire on a target you have a height advantage over though, which is great for ground-oriented ACs.

    Your shoutout to Myndrr has 3 "r"s instead of the actual 2. As it sits currently, it's a dead link, but it's not too difficult to get to the correct channel with a basic RUclips search. Not sure if that changed recently, but figured I'd let you know. I do see that their twitch has the 3 "r"s, so maybe it's simply inconsistent across platforms.

  • @ullfric6252
    @ullfric6252 5 месяцев назад +2

    I loved the Worker Bee build and have been tweaking with it a lot. My main goal was to keep the Lance + other melee punish setup. What I'm at right now that I really like is the Lance + Pile Bunker and the Sweet Sixteen. I like the Wueger but its recoil results in long recovery time while the sweet sixteen seems to have faster recovery after firing. So Lance + Sixteen + Bunker works on almost anything not just larger enemies. The Zimmerman also works but in my testing in the training room the lance moves you so close that the Zimmerman can shoot over an AC shoulder and whiff, you can pull back slightly to land the Zimmerman shot but the timing is weird and the sweet sixteen doesn't seem to have that issue.

    I have a build that I’ve been using that has trivialized a lot of bosses and other AC’s for me. I’ve got a couple of different variations on it but the main build itself consists usually of a mid weight build combo of parts, linear rifle, pile bunker, and 2 of the precision plasma launcher for the shoulders. Bosses like Cataphract are done in under a minute. Charge up the twin cannons, massive damage and instant stunned, pile bunker, and linear rifle full charge while break gauge is still active, rinse repeat. For ones like the Ibis Series I change it a little but not much. Really just the order but sometimes I’ll do a more speed focused build and use a powerful handgun. Pepper it with pistol shots or catch it mid animation with a well placed linear charged shot, and catch again with the launchers, break gauge, pile bunker, 60% health gone, in both phase 1 and 2.
    I’m late to the party and I know most of you here are probably vets who have way more effective builds, but I just decided to share what I’m using and how fun it’s been.
