[Armored Core 6] Infiltrate Grid 086 - easier S Rank - post patch 1.03.1 -

[@cridus_]

I wrote "easier" in the title because, as the video shows, destroying more of the bigger enemies (in particular, tetrapods and the ones that start balled up) will make it easier to S-rank this mission. Trying to "speedrun" it isn't impossible but it's muuuch harder, especially now that after patch 1.03.1 Songbirds are less efficient at ACS-overloading the boss. Also, apparently resupplying factors in on the final rank quite a bit compared to how it does with other missions. A detail of the run that I think could be important: equip boosters with high Assault Boost Thrust to move around more quickly and dodge more missiles, especially at the beginning.

I was having so much trouble with this one. This worked, though!

[@mythicalthings1796]

Yeah follow this one. For the love of god follow this one. Wherever you can, fit in another kill it will genuinely help patch up repair and ammo costs.

[@Missilechicken]

Thank you. This got me the S rank.

[@bossmangaming666]

This is the only mission I've not been able to S rank so far. I was at a loss how to get s rank after the patch so this is excellent. Well done man

[@cridus_]

thank you >_>

[@ursoanonimo8398]

A lot of people forget the importance that destorying MTs has for the end of mission pay. So yeah, good job. I just wish you could have destroyed that Cleaner faster.

I realized mid-fight that I could try kicking him to push him over the ACS load limit. that wasn't an attempt made on purpose for the video, it was the footage of the first time I got the S.

Good job dude

[@cridus_]

thanksss it took way too many attempts where I was ignoring all skippable enemies...

How do you possibly take Invincible Rummy down so fast with one swipe of your blade??

[@cridus_]

it's not a blade, it's the pile bunker. also, there's a stat on arms that determines how much damage melee weapons will deal. I was using the basho arms which are the best for melee attacks, but not good with ranged weapons.
