Like Milfcake 🤪

[@Dante999000]

Agree, in fact I might switch between Meefcake and Golden god build since I might need some aerial advantage in later stages.

[@unseeninja83]

Looking forward to this aswell. Unfortunately I’m alittle skeptical on how much they will be able to make it look like those units. Like if there are just cosmetic parts that can be added will most likely change my skepticism since I want to make units like wing gundam and shadow gundam. May not fight the exact same but I would like to play them in more than maximum ON.

Meefcake got me through the final boss fight in Chapter 1. I died so many times before building Meefcake, and even then it took a few tries, but I finally got it.

[@leSmokySmoke]

as a veteran I can confirm that this is a good video. you know what you are talking about. The first build was pretty much my loadout. in chapter 1 and 2

[@omn1cr0ngaming66]

Personally I used a midrange speed build with a focus on stunning and then using a charged melee

[@ImperatorMagus]

man that second build is just what i wanted, love that you picked weapons to supplement the melee

[@LRG_Hermes]

These builds work great. I built a mixture of meeftank w/quad legs for the armored plated boss and kept the energy missiles and was able to keep him staggered and just stay above him the whole time. Great video bro can't wait to see what else you come up with.

[@joshuaharris2345]

I'm thinking of doing the same thing!

[@saeonix]

Alex, your Elden Ring “get op early guide” helped me get through the game when I had zero clue what to do, so now am back for the same guide of yours for AC6

[@MATTKBAN]

Beefcake gets my vote. I happened to make a similar loadout with all those weapons and it’s been going good through the entire game. I’ve maybe changed to new pieces and generator after chapter 3 and those weapons are still killing it! You can swap the hand weapons for those smaller laser pistols and they still wreck enemies since you can fire so many shots with them. I’m onto chapter 4 and all Arena missions completed. I’ll take some tips for the melee and aerial mechs as I’ve wanted a reason to use the energy sword more and have a flying mech. ;)

[@NodeHF]

I was struggling with Balteus until I tried out the Meefcake. Incredibly helpful video, cheers dude!

[@gamesmash9859]

[@riley5074]

thx for these, this is my first armored core game and i am sooo glad i took the risk and bought it because i am having the most fun on a game ive had in a while.. only thing is all the numbers are a bit intimidating so this makes it a bit easier to try some stuff and see what stats to go for!! ty!!

Bro that first build is insane. It helped me one shot Juggernaut and I was missing the FCS and the Generator, had to swap something else in and it still wrecked house. Thanks man, I was nervous seeing him myself but that build put in some serious work.

Finally got my meefcake made and I love it! I was muddling through each mission and now I'm f'ing dominating lol it's a fun, super easy build to use. Well done!

[@golferchin76]

big thumbs up to the Melee build. It took me a few hours to hone the skill but it is really nice that it staggers anything so easily 🙂

[@JuliusCorvus]

Great builds. The Meefcake is definitely the highlight of these, but the other two are so much fun also. I made all of these at the very beginning of chapter two, as the parts for the latter two builds are unlocked right away then. The only change I made is that I put on the Kasuar head instead of the Nachreiter one, which sadly tips it over the weight limit, but I replaced the VP missile launcher with a lighter one to balance this, as I found the higher Attitude Stability is needed on such a light build to not be staggered too easily.

[@valters6786]

i just got into AC6. Your builds just got me through the first chapter boss. Thank you!

[@erti86]

I love the Meefcake and will be putting it together as I just started the game, later will try the Golden God bombardier :) Thanks for the video I am a total newcomer to AC series so putting together builds is still quite complicated but I'm learning. The game is addicting!

[@towelie112]

I used the Meefcake build and it worked great! Eventually switched out the plasma missiles for Laser rifles and used the tank treads though.

Just for those who want the head, you had to have pre ordered the game for that part. You can throw on the 11 melander head though, and that works just as good

[@matthewbyrd398]

The all-plasma “MeefCake” carried me all the way to chapter 3, mostly.

[@TheAleksanderB]

I have updated a little bit the design of Meefcake in chapter 4. I have put the chicken legs (reverse joins) for faster dodging, toss the arms with highest firearm specialization and the FCS that give best performance in close and mid range attacks. For boss fights I put the threads just to get a little bit the extra AP.

[@Linarian]

Bro your voice is so nostalgic because I've been following your guides on Monster Hunter World lol. Thanks for the builds!

[@SectionSkyly]

[@TexasToast712]

Thank you! Was stuck on a boss forever, and the first build did the trick.

[@manum8170]

They all look amazing, great mech designs man. So far I'm into melee builds so I'll tinker a bit with what ya did for assassin. While only just finished CH1 I'm getting more comfortable with moving and everything. The game is everything I've wanted, and waiting over 10 years has indeed been worth it.

[@Truth_Hurts_Bad]

Trying to keep tabs on the community builds. I keep my left shoulder empty for the energy efficiency, but I was considering adding a second melee wep. This seals the deal for me. Pile bunker is disgusting, but useless on anything that moves. Plasma blade charge attack is waaay easy to hit, especially with the melee thrust boosters on. You get some beefy arms shortly after this that crank melee damage, too. Songbird, laser or shotgun and the melee. Steamrolling everything so far. Cheers.

[@Shady272]

was hoping for this video, thanks!

[@operator001]

[@Truth_Hurts_Bad]

Curious as to what you were playing before the video, because the game requires some assembly logic. If you aren't successful by your own merits, what have you been doing? Genuine question.

[@savedbylife931]

@@Truth_Hurts_Bad I basically used the melander pre order bonus set and plasma gun with the default knife. I wasn't too far off from killing balteus on the last few tries but i got sick of it and switched it up with the video and got through most of the game now.

[@LinX1515]

My favorite anti-ac build is double laser pistols and double laser canons. Cleared all arena fights with it and, even though it feels like brute-forcing, it works really well. For bigger bosses trade in laser pistols for plasma cannons and it still works

[@pepe9565]

Was having trouble with the chapter 1 boss last night so I looked at your builds and wow, I defeated it in a single try. Beefcake for the win

[@somerandomprogrammer6886]

I call it the "Double Downer". It really just depends on the weapons used. Use the stun baton and pile bunker for melee, and use the Songbird + any handgun for stagger and middle range combat. First, get the stagger with the Songbird and handgun of your choice, and then fully charge the stun baton. This gets you the second stagger. Finally finish off with the pile bunker for more damage. This build works best with boss enemies and arena fights. You can change out the handgun with the Vcc energy rifle for basic mob enemies in the missions for easier and quicker kills

[@Camber126]

Ive always loved light frames with a good melee weapon. For awnsers pile driver was so much fun. I think i have to give the win to Meefcake though. I was having trouble A ranking the wallcimber mission. That build fixed my problem. I didnt realize energy weapons dont use my energy bar anymore

[@allinairhanson6886]

For melee builds I often prefer a more dulled, and scratched up look, also shotguns of all types can synergize amazingly with said melee weapons and their cooldown period, giving a good close range option that isn't quite within melee range
