I want to apologize for the bad audio quality in this video. it was raining super hard and I was trying to cut the rain sound out and it seemed fine in the beginning but I ended up messing up my audio as well. Hope you still enjoy. Have a great day.
Astra is perhaps my favorite weapon in the game (bear in mind I also have scorps) some things i do and might help you: 1. Use them on Omni wheels 2. Mount them on the cabin, if it isn't too nimble you'll get a ton of shot, and if you play it properly, damaging your cabin shouldn't be that big of a deal. 3. They are cheap and currently on the fusion event, fuse them, you get more damage and accuracy (good if you want to use them on hovers). 4. Purple scope 5. I play them at 9k, i think it's the sweet spot where it's fairly high, yet performs well enough. With that, there's some matches i do over 10k damage in a single battle with it, not bad.
Literally had these a couple days ago. I sold them for the nidhoggs (which worked great by the way) but I was absolutely destroying people with the astraeus. I could one shot most people's weapons!! It was great
I have just rebuilt my astreaus, hover on hadron and flywheel, and it's pretty good, with fast reloading, and I find if you count 1 second as you charge then release you do a fair amount of damage and no damage to your mount's
Mount em really low on alot of big heavy frames only. Each weap hurts the frame -4 so -8dmg for 2 of em"per charged shot" For me i have found several perfect builds easily shooting 30+ overcharged shots. My fav weap right now. With scope ur popping ppl like crazy the penetration is amazing and it gives alot of MVP s too. :) Just takes some practicing hitting moving targets from far. But easier than cannons cuz of no drop.
I just got the pack with one of these things, and put a bid on the market for another. Reckon I might try to make me a little something with it, probably a little hover. Maybe the nerf won't kill it, I always get the good weapons after they get the nerf. I have been having some luck with the thyrsus though
See nanuk uses hurricanes like I use fuse and other drones we're specialists. We specialize in one type of weapon for so long that people think the s***** items are good LOL
Just bought 3 Fafnirs and a bunch of small purple wheels because they are cheap on xbox right now because of the pack, it's been a while since I've seen a video on them 🤔
While a tutorial could benefit some people, I would hope it's to encourage learning instead of it being a video out of spite. Anyone can play how they want and if they feel they're not doing well enough I'm sure they'll look up the reason why. (Not to mention he earned the most score so he was playing passive probably). Some people just want to jump in a game and play casually, not min/max a build as if it's a tournament whether it's smart or not. Otherwise, very entertaining video. I know what I need to purchase next.
You know it's really overpowered right now? Sidekicks are overpowered as hell right now because nobody uses them for so long that nobody expects you to use a sidekick so if you get like three or four of them on there and put a detector and you have like 14,000 defense man it's just truck through and then the side kicks tear them up
First time I have to write a comment, and dislike: - Putting the ring bell every 2 mins at the start of your vidéo is completely annoying, I dislike it, next time I hear this, I'll stop watching your vidéos... (5 time in 1 video wooow....) for me you were an entertaining channel not an annoying random guy claiming every 2 minutes to sub but ok You aren't an expert, but more a pretty good player, sometimes you said some not really right thing, but that's ok because most of the viewers aren't expert of crossout too, so ok, so this plus the annoying sound, that's too much for me, I know you'll never listen to me, but I must say it :D Now peace, GL HF, I was having a pretty good time seeing your videos.

It's fine, the video was still entertaining as usual 👍
@@larry8437 for me it was dlss crashing the game, maybe try turning it off
Use medians catalina Jay just better than astreus

That build is screaming for the oppressor engine.
If you use the master cabin you can fix the parts the guns are attached to.
6:46. Yeah, that seems to be a thing with tracks now. Not sure if the devs meant to do it, but it kinda feels unintentional.

JB, you know you can zoom in farther with the mouse wheel, right?
yes i do
Astraeus is old news. Fused Varuns plus Catalina is where it’s at.
Hehehe....i pray for the day that small tracks get fixed!....great vid and gameplay as usual JB!...thanks for sharing and keep it up!
The Astraeus is soooo good at taking off weapons at long range.

Agent Jay MIB 2 & 3: "This on the back thing, its just a perfered fighting style, that happens to work out..."
Wait how are you taking so little damage from overcharging them. I take 40 damage when I do that. Is it the cab or something

I think they are underrated, you can tell since the price is like a third of a normal epic
**JBRider sniping** Meanwhile the guy in the background playing, burning, and destroying the guitar at the same time
What didja mount it on
You don't have to full charge them. There is a small window you can release the shot without damaging the weapon..
@@larry8437 nope. Hold the trigger, while it's maxed the cross hair will get a circle around it that quickly dissipates. Fire before its gone.
@@larry8437 around 1 second

Using astreaus without the purple scope is a warcrime
Nahh, Iris from the last BP is sufficient with the falcon co-driver
I had these and sold em, too much brainpower to use
xd
Jb phobos is up there with falcon
I'd like to show you my rides job, any way you know how to do that ?
discord maybe? drop it in my channel
6:12 gotta remix that xD
Why have you put 4 times the subscribe button?
Omamori would be really good here
Good old JB pronouncing it "ASS-truss" - maybe try pairing it with the Hard-on cabin ;)
XD how do I pronounce it then?
I think it's uh-STREE-us but I kinda prefer ASS-truss
Great video

Wish you would have done a perfect Fusion on your build with your Promo account.
Just bought 3 Fafnirs and a bunch of small purple wheels because they are cheap on xbox right now because of the pack, it's been a while since I've seen a video on them 🤔
that's right i'll do one next week

Thanks JB but using some building tips would mean he would survive longer
im playing them on 7 k ps and they are really fun aslong you dont get swarmed by meeles -.-

Sidekicks are terrible
Bruh just use Caucasus, no more drone
The sound effects for the new subscribe prompts are very annoying.
I'll lower the volume and not put as many
I really wish the weapon didn't damage itself
It doesn't damage itSELF, it damages what it's mounted on. So if you make the right build for it, it shouldn't be too much of an issue
Why even bother trying to teach ppl like that?? There's dozen of RUclips vids on how to build and why you should hide your Gastank
that vehicle is garbage. 10k ps but no health. i got shot once by a crossbow and the build literally split in half.

Now peace, GL HF, I was having a pretty good time seeing your videos.
your feedback is appreciated and someone already complained so I'll remove it next week unfortunately this weeks videos will still have it
