Ducketts are functionally unchanged. You still need to be point blank, and their DPS is negligible, as it was the impact that makes the what they are. LRB being untouched however, is a valid point.
Sadly any game will eventually boil down to a select set of metas. its just how it is. What bothers me is the overall cqc focus and stagger system. Hopefully core theory wont be a thing next game, or at least every weapon given a decent range extension to help combat some of the staleness of builds.
I'm on Xbox. Once I got to A rank, I played a few matches and saw how long the grind would be until S. Hard pass. It was my first season playing ranked. I hopped on to casuals this afternoon for the heck of it and joined a lobby with the 4th and 31st S rankers. I beat the 31st ranker (my LW kite against his) 2-0, then he immediately switched his AC to a ALBA kite with 3 of 4 weapons identical to mine with an anti kite TRUENO thrown in there 😂 I didn't get to fight him, though. The 4th ranker took one round off of me, but I beat his MW 2-1. I was the pursuer, and I wore him down because my missile picks are designed to nail people who backpedal and to win the circle strafe (703PM and SPL-08).
Ugh, the first fight is the exact optimized Zimm Shield build. I mean, if you like Zimmerman, I get it. But what are the chances that your ENTIRE build is IDENTICAL to what gets showcased on AC streamers' channels? It's like some people don't build ACs to fit their playstyle/what they like, but only to do PvP and win fights. In the words of Gideon, "what a sad state of affairs..."
@@TemplarCora The sad reality of the competitive video game scene. What offends me most is the fact that AC6 is entirely built around creating something of your own, building an AC around what you like to do... and people prefer to follow the meta to the letter... nice...
@@Dabdabdorito half the parts are no good, and not every part is a good fit for every other part. this shrinks the pool of configurations that make sense considerably. some flaws go beyond stats and are more fundamental for example rapid fire weapons are disrupted by quick boosting and interact poorly with the way that recoil recovery is calculated.
Zim and lrb and energy shoulder weapons out of control sir what do we do ............................ Buff then Nerf the duckets and then we are gana buff them again followed by another nerf.
Ducketts start popping up more for one patch while still having rough projectile speed and effective range: nerfed down a bit, manageable but eeeeh Zimms and whatnot that have been used everywhere for a long while: *whistling off in the distance* Hope to see something interesting with another patch lol
Match 2 is precisely why I don’t use 703 plus VPM on my rifle set up. As soon as the opponent knows how to go up, both missiles are basically neutralized
Yeah, VPM are garbage against airborne opponents. The one good thing about having one of the PMs on a rifle build is that since they have to go up to dodge it, they become an easy target to pick off with rifles while airborne, especially if your second missile is one that nails the side strafe (this is how you dodge 3PM in the air...rock to the side and tip forward a bit). With the correct missile, like MLT, you can punish the opponent for trying to dodge the PMs this way. I use 703PM and SPL-08, and it rocks against kites especially when you can force them to circle. The rank 5 on PC actually uses the VPM/3PM combo. It works wonders against rush down opponents. VPM comes down and hits them from behind or misses...then blows up on the ground in front of the target! Against a kite, it doesn't work as well, but that's what ETSUJIN + HARRIS is for. Pro tip: You need at least 111 recoil control to fire both HARRIS and ETSUJIN without any blooming...so HAL or FIRMEZA are the options for LW kites. The guy in the second match should have been able to win with these two weapons and the 3PM. He could out-range and out-play the shield, and 3PM can punish him for getting too close to the ground or too close to redlining. He should've purged the VPM and DPS raced feel-good, just like the 3rd fight with dual ETSUJIN neo evil statue. NES lost because of a solitary VPM, which sucks against airborne opponents. Anything else on that shoulder like DUO, MLT, SPL, or 3PM, and feel-good would have lost.
Finally got both S Rank in both 1v1 and 3v3 hopefully gonna get the top 100 3v3 plate next reset. 3v3 more fun than 1v1 imo much more chaos builds and comps.
Build im using 'can' kite but in a different way. If giving point to LW Harris Kite on kiting aspect, it would be 10/10 But build Im using will be around 7/10 LW Harris Kite rely on their speed and infinite air time to make enemy cant get close to you and bombard them with missiles. Technically, build Im using can't outspeed any build in this game even HW. It rely on terrain to kite opponent, unless my opponent is bad at flying into the air then I will do vertical kiting on them. Why I call this soy kite? After I reach S rank, there are only 5 builds I see every matches. ZimmShield, Lamm, NTR, NTS, and Harris Kite Harris Kite is build that I seen the most, and it make be so bored to fight this thing over and over. But yeah.... you are right. I upload this video when I'm feeling down about this game meta. I will change it to Harris Kite. Thanks for admonishing me ❤
NTR = Neo TokuRobo NTS = Neo Evil Statue Both 2 builds change some parts in 1.07 patch. So ppl put 'Neo' in front of their name to make it different from the old version.
Are you on PSN if so can I play against you? I don't care if you beat me badly you can post it. Up to you tho if you want to duel. I'm watching your video I posted before I even watch it so I can catch you early lol

Gotta love LRB dodging all nerfs while duckets get shafted
Im glad I dont see duckets in 90% of my games anymore though, for what thats worth.
It's just ridiculous that Duckett has been nerfed even worse than it was before it was buffed. What's the point?
Duckett is still usable with Mind Alpha arms.

LRB’s balance wise is in a really good spot… IF THE NETCODE WASNT GARBAGE AND SHOTS BENT SPACETIME TO MELT MY AP

Sad truth is yeah with everyone in ranked now sported in same Meta specs and weapons... like that's the only way to climb up ranked.

I'm eager as anyone to see the LRB get tuned down, but also kinda bummed that a nerf would sideswipe builds like yours as well :/
Don't worry my friend~
This build has various variation that doesnt use LRB
Dude can still use harris if needed dw
@@FeelGood-AC Wuerger? 👀
LRA and Wuerger are fine~
Not sure Harris is good or not, need more testing.
Nerfing lrb would be a massive increase to all kite builds. Is a paradox but lrb is keeping the meta sane somehow

Doro spotted.
I'm still enjoying Armored core 6 multiplayer, even when i lose a lot, it's enjoyable, than cs 2
I wish I can be like you 🥲
@FeelGood-AC you can if you focus on fun ;3
It’s a tragedy fighting heavy biped Zimm builds over and over, where’s the fun in that
Are you on PSN if so can I play against you? I don't care if you beat me badly you can post it. Up to you tho if you want to duel. I'm watching your video I posted before I even watch it so I can catch you early lol
Sadly... Im PC player
@FeelGood-AC oh your the masta race it's cool 😎.
Strangely enough, I've never vs a somewhat known yt guy. Got close in customs but he left before we could match 😭
@dad_uchiha1707 I almost beat number 64 on leader board on PSN today. I fucked up badly that round tho.
Bro forgot channel password again.
Still here~
Im just giga busy with my work 🥲
@FeelGood-AC 👍
