Ranking Every Boss In Armored Core 6 From Worst To Best...

  • Опубликовано: 16 май 2024
  • Armored Core 6 is Fromsoft's first entry in the AC series since 11 years ago. It has three endings, each of which require you to path out your missions differently. That means you can play through this game three times and still potentially miss a couple big details. Meaning, I probably missed a boss or two, but you're perfectly fine with that.

      I actually find it to be the only good ending. The conflict and violence will continue to rage on in the other two, the corps will never ever stop trying to get their hands on Coral so they'll be back (They literally came back after 50 years in the plot, why wouldn't they again?). The only way to stop the cycle of violence is to get rid of the Coral 'fuel source' that they keep bickering over.

      @@ShmandalfConflict and violence will continue to rage on in the Fires ending as well, just not on Rubicon over Coral. The good ending has a chance of ending conflict if you, at some point, achieve Coral Release in the future. The Coral Release ending seems to imply that humans have ascended to a higher form of existence. One of the overall points of the whole AC franchise, that human nature begets violence, is made a non-factor because we’re no longer monke-brained humans.

    I think a lot of the lack of difficulty is due to using dual Zimmerman shotguns which are clearly overpowered. Broken builds don't make the review wrong, but it's like complaining an Elden ring boss is too easy when playing a sorcerer with comet azure

      @boi8328 8 месяцев назад +15

      I think the problem there is that most players choose to use high power - low fire rate/ammo builds which are more tailored towards 1v1 fights, usually run out of ammo or get overwhelmed due to how many remaining MTs there are once Michigan joins. Once you use more low power weapons like the assault rifles which at this time of posting have received a pretty big buff, can easily clear out the MTs with plenty of extra time in between waves and the fight against Michigan himself won't be that hard even with a dual AR build.

    I think the initial "Defend the Old Spaceport" fight against Nightfall was intended to be a show of the player's progress. It's a simple 1v1 AC fight with no other distractions, complications, or other mixups. The player hasn't been worn down by other fighting, like the G1 Michigan fight, so they have all their repair kits. It's meant to show how far 621 has progressed, and how they can surpass other AC pilots. The NG+ "Defend the Dam Complex" mission, on the other hand, is meant to be a challenging fight that shows the player overcoming a 3v1 situation, and I actually did get Pile Bunkered on repeat playthroughs.

  • @miss_bec
    @miss_bec 8 месяцев назад +173

    There seems to be a pretty clear disparity in how hard bosses are between players based entirely on if the build they're using has zimmy and songbirds equipped. I recognised from the moment I equipped them that they were so strong that they were gonna make my playthroughs boring, so I tried my best to avoid them (keeping a maximum of 1 zimmy on hand at all times). As such, bosses that you seem to have breezed through - notably most AC bosses - actually provided significant challenge for me.
    Don't take that the wrong way though, I don't consider using objectively strong weapons like zimmys, songbirds, and missiles to be the "wrong way" to play the game, I just preferred not having an instant-win button that I could mindlessly press every time it was off cooldown. 621 is supposed to be the lobotomite, not me.

      @@fastenedcarrot9570 that's a hot debate in the fandom. Coral is a substance that absorbs the mind of anyone who dies in it or near it. It's why Ayre keeps hearing screaming and voices in the coral, the Fires of Ibis purged the planet of people. The fires were burning coral, so it basically ate their consciousness. So it's commonly debated if Iguazu was absorbed by Allmind or if he was a coral whisp that Allmind used. Allmind could communicate with Ayre, so in some level it was synchronized with Coral the same way 621 and Ayre were. So theories range from Iguazu being downloaded, to him being a coral voice helping Allmind as a means to enact revenge on you.
      I personally can't think of a reason Allmind needed Iguazus mind. Allmind could already fight better than Iguazu, had observed us beat Iguazu several times. There's no logical reason Allmind needed that persona, and even less reason Iguazu as an AI should have been able to push Allminds control back...but if Iguazu was Coral at that point, it would make sense. Coral voices can overcome Allminds control. If allmind made him a custom machine as a means to eliminate us, it would explain a lot why his movements were like other Ibis series parts. He moved like Ayre and CEL series, had unlimited energy. Walters Ibis series didn't have that unlimited mobility, because Walter wasn't Coral. So I think Allmind engineered an AI controlled machine that was entirely meant for Iguazu to posses and fuel. It would also explain why he said "this ghost of me won't last long". He was burning himself. And that glow was unlike any other power source from any generator, makes sense it might be a hybrid of some kind using conventional energy tech and coral together.

And that's good design. I think the biggest difference I have experienced is the King/Chartreuse/Nightfall fight. I didn't know Nightfall was on a timer, since I killed the other two before he showed up every time I've ever done the mission, and I think that's facinating.

    Some bosses can be trivialized by using dual zims and needles with the heaviest tankiest AP setup you can make. I fought the FoR ending boss for over 2 hours before watching someone else on YT beat it with that setup. First try with that and I beat it. Now I farm it for the money so i can buy every single component in the game. I'm going to 100% this game eventually

      @@christopherlyndsay8611 yeah it's the hardest if you don't have an OP build. Super fast, dodge catching combos, high damage and 2 phases. For me C240 is more like Maliketh. You either die fast or kill it fast.

  • @ryanstover8433
    @ryanstover8433 8 месяцев назад +4

    While I agree with most on this list, I have to say that almost every boss in this game has a build that will trivialize it. Even the Enforcer is turned into a push over with the Battan laser. So any boss can be super hard, or super easy. Just depends on what you are running. Most of the AC fights tho, yeah they are mostly easy.

    Don't know if anyone came across this but when you return to the depths for the allmind ending where you fight Pater, you can head back to where the MTs ambushed you where you access the elevator previously and you find G6. He'll talk with you for a moment before it actually becomes a boss fight, not much to write at home about it because you beat him in the arenas and also he doesn't pose that big of a threat despite being in a cramped room
    Edit: in the first mission of chapter 2 where the molten substance is you can go through both pipes to find a log that heavily resembles patches and the other has a boss called Nosaac, you can also fight him in the depths depending on the outcome

    Sulla’s actually pretty tough if your build is mismatched. Yeah, the dual shotgun+melee meta builds absolutely thrash him, but the first few times I went into that one I got absolutely rocked.
    The Sulla/Balteus combo is a skillcheck (or was, prenerf, at least) but I think it’s also a knowledge check. If you go into those fights with the wrong build you will suffer, the game’s trying to force you to be thoughtful about how you’re putting your core together. Really like those fights.

    Ice Worm being #1 is wild, because it does nothing for me. You have to line up 4 shots with an annoying weapon against an enemy that moves too fast, but it can't hit you if you keep moving, so it's just a few minutes of missing shots until Rusty can finally give you the 3rd ORC shot.
    My favorite has gotta be Ayre. I really loved how devastating her melee feels and how quickly you have to dodge to get away from its insane range.

    I don't think saying the encounter is too short because you used the most effective strategy without really knowing it. Most of the encounter where pretty well done in terms of length. The strider eye was supposed to be circled around since the laser can't track you well enough.
    I'm not blaming you for playing the game and having fun with whatever you find effective.
    I just wish you researched the bosses a tiny bit more just to know if you haven't missed a key mechanic

    The Strider mission is more of a flight energy management tutorial hence why it's an early mission and why you take fall damage if you fall off it once you're on top. I don't like how people say it sucks because of "platforming sections" when it's just another teaching tool like the test AC or the Attack Helicopter.
