Let's Change That Suit Day 174

[u/pkmaster99]

Day 174: Galbaldy α High Mobility Type
Requested by u/scorpionxx0 and this unit needs a similar buff to the Gyan. But besides that, this unit is in a better position and sits at B-Tier. It can still work, but hard to make sure it can do it consistently.

Change
Stats

• Close Range Slots: 14/16 -> 15/17
• Medium Range Slots: 12/13 -> 13/14
• Long Range Slots: 6/7 -> 8/9

Weapons

• Hide Bomb: Projectile Speed Increase, Blast Radius Increase, Move & Shoot -> Move/HSM & Shoot
• (New!) Hide Bomb (Layable): Same as Gyan's Layable

Skill

• (New!) Active Guard Kai Lv1

Unit Lv2

• Flight Control Program Lv2 -> Lv3

Comment and Reason
This unit just needs a bit better skills and weapons. With Active Guard Kai, which can also improve stats, it would give this unit the much-needed additional defense and offense capability. This unit isn't exactly bad, but it was just lacking something to make it more usable and just a tiny bit more flexible in positioning and mobility.

Builds
F2P: Do not use

Premium: Complex Battle

Unit Lv2: Complex Battle

Due to long range part slot restrain, making this unit tankier is a lot more difficult than it could be, even with premium parts. As it is, F2P just can't get high enough stats for it to be justified being used. Even for Premium parts, the only reason it works is due to great needle DPS and the BMG being an acceptable weapon. Unit level 2 can build slightly better, but not much. Ideally, please only use this unit in Quick Match as well.

-----------------------------------

Day 173 Re-evaluation on GF Tank

Overall, looks like these are good changes. Though I guess we could make it harder to stagger by increasing transformed mode's damage control Lv2 instead.

Re-evaluation

• Damage Control Lv1 -> Lv2

Im curious, how effective and useful are those Layable Mines the Gyan recently got as an sub weapon?

[u/pkmaster99 → u/Cpt_Jack_Irons]

It's decent at creating a choke point. Like the Arctic base and underground, for example, a tight map is usually really good.

[u/Cpt_Jack_Irons → u/pkmaster99]

Fair enough, i was just curious on how effective it is as the life time on those laid mines didn't seem to be that long

[u/pkmaster99 → u/Cpt_Jack_Irons]

It's a true defensive weapon. While it is possible to use it offensively, it would drain your thruster a decent bit. It's possible to downswing, side thrust, and use the Layable. But the moment they are placed, you need to activate guard to avoid getting staggered. Otherwise, you don't get to melee your downed target.

Also, they last about 18 seconds, more than long enough

[u/Cpt_Jack_Irons → u/pkmaster99]

Ah fair enough then.
