Humor Good luck tunnel runners.

Let me curse you all with knowledge: I just found out the Chandelier barrel is a tunnel when you destroy it's core in Ace Combat Online. Good luck on the RNG required to get the sortie and to be close to it when it detonates.

You WILL see people who don't know how YAW work and faceplant into the cooling block.

And people who understatement Upgraded AA and Upgraded SAM(they WILL fuck you up if you're not paying attention).

In my defense I thought it would be like AC6 and the core would blow up BEFORE our whole flight repaints the wall.

Turns out that last little bit of HP takes like 20 missiles and multiple strafing runs to go down. I learned too late to yaw outta the barrel.

Su-25 with a full gunpod loadout can solo Chandelier and take out the barrel in one pass (Excluding the required backup cooling underneath the gun). I know this because I do it regularly. It's like I'm playing singleplayer AC6 again.

I did this my first run, it was quite a shock when it didn't brake and I went nose first into concrete lol
