Soooo something you should remember is that assault armor can be defensive. When you're in those make or break moments and you get stunned, hit the assault armor. It blocks hits if you time if right. You can totally negate their punish and save your fight.
Since people are arguing whether Moonlight, Redshift and/or the Explosive Thrower are affected by Melee spec or not, including some people who claim to have tested it themselves, I went in the game to test it myself. Long story short: Moonlight and Redshift are affected by Melee spec, the Explosive Thrower is not. I used the trainer AC as my target (doesn't matter for Redshift since the coral-damage), I tried the lowest Melee spec 72 (Wrecker), no melee-multiplier i.e 100 (Tool Arm), max melee spec 158 (duh) and specifically for the Moonlight: highest EN-Firearm spec 150 (duh²), 100 EN-F spec (VP-20C) and the lowest 72 (Ling-Tai). All of these tests were done with the maxed melee damage via OS-tuning (I realized when using Redshift with the Tool Arm) *Explosive Thrower:* dealt 1059 dmg with both Basho and Wrecker (charging didn't change that, not that it should). I did not test if the OS-upgrade increased this number, hadn't thought of trying Tool Arm as well at that point. *Redshift:* Wrecker: 719x2 (uncharged), 1597 (charged) Tool Arm: 836x2, 1597 (no OS would've been 727x2 and 1614) Basho: 1079x2, 2368 *Moonlight:* Wrecker+Ling-Tai: 438x2, 1647 Wrecker+VP-20C: 544x2, 2048 Wrecker+VE-20B: 681x2, 2558 Tool Arm+Ling-Tai: 510x2, 1916 Tool Arm+VP-20C: 633x2, 2380 Tool Arm+VE-20B: 792x2, 2975 Basho+Ling-Tai: 658x2, 2471 Basho+VP-20C: 817x2, 3070 Basho+VE-20C: 1021x2, 3838 Note: The numbers aren't too large, disappear quickly and the flashes don't help either, so I may have misread a number somewhere. I mistook a 6 for an 8 once, caught the mistake though. But I can't guarantee that no mistake snuck through.
Just gotta validate the bit about bot being able to see the numbers. Especially hard with big explosions because of the white fire. Wish Fromsoftware would add a setting for changing the colors of the reticle, numbers, etc
I'll keep saying it: we need Melee weapons for the Right arm and Right back unit, NOW!!! Just imagine builds like double Moonlight and Redshifts on each slot, or a Pile Bunker + Chainsaw + Explosive Thrower + Laser Drill. ❤ Nice video btw
I wish melee pieced shields more or at least make it to where the shield took longer to charge after stagger so they can't block things like the charged bunk. Edit: Good luck on promos, got my S this season with haldeman blade.
Coincidentally I made a LW kite build but also using the same double melee weapons as yours here few days ago, it was funny as hell to run this weird double melee kite
One question on the paint job; color specs and level of polish? You got that clean sheen for gold color and I am loving it. Love the gameplay, too. Your energy efficiency is a lesson I desperately need to learn from.
nice fights as usual man👍 and yeah, totally agree with redshift. i know everyone shits on moonlight’s dmg but it feels way better. if melee is a regular rotation in play style rather than just a punish, redshifts long cd makes it feel doo doo to use. lol
Wish they added those heavy shields that some tetrapod AC'S use instead of the just the energy shield , those shields block pretty much anything be it kinetic or energy/missiles .
I finally got this game recently (only partway through ch3 first playthrough rn), and it's kinda scary how good at this game some of y'all are at this haha
Game came out 4th quarter of 2023. Long time for many of them to polish skills. Less time for the ones who've been playing the series before AC6. PS5 community is practically 100 players in the PVP pool feels like.
@bakecakesyum if you swapped to a high energy firearm spec gen and moonlight I feel like you'd get more dmg. Honestly though I like the red look and you crushed it this video so wtf do I know hahahaha 😂
Hell yeah bro explo-throw is goated!! Fast reload, reg hit is rlly good as well as the charged it. Definitely one of the best weapons to get consistent stagger build up. Only downside is it isn’t buffed by basho arms like other melee
Lmaoo I was drinking tea with honey all day bro, you never gargle hot water with a lil salt in it tho? 😂 I’ve never tried honey and lime but imma have to
ngl I was cheering for the guy with the KRSV and bunker. THat shit is so cool
Its kamen rider cosplay
@@somechinesedude5466 you're probably the only person to know that.
@@somechinesedude5466which rider was it?
@@KaponoLopez it's in the name "Shadow Moon" from Kamen Rider Black

This channel is so underrated!
Keep up the good work

love your vids man, you're so funny to watch
socially distanced melee build
Nice!!!!
Super nasally gameplay 😂 nice cliffhanger as well 👍🏾
goldeneye back at it :D
My main for teams is the ET coupled with the pile bunker. Its one of my favorite setups in the game because its so much fun.
regarding that dual zap and zimm player emblem you asked, that's dafeng's mascot, dafeng nyan nyan.

Love the video man!
10:05 😳
THIS! 😂

Why is this only popping up for me now??
Either way, W!
I think that build is my speed right there! Gone have to try it out. 😂
I love the explosive thrower
Good luck on the promos. You got it!
“Ranged melee” call that AC OXYMORON
Another banger

12:18 my pvp experience resumed
That looks like Thanos
Basho arms give neither of those melee weapons a buff last i tested. Love the set up and gameplay
Yoo thanks bro!!
Wait I knew explo-throw didn’t get effected but redshift too?
They buff coral blade, not positive on thrower but i don't think so.
@bakecakesyum when I tested it I didn't see a dmg increase however I can't remember how many patches ago this was
@bakecakesyum if you swapped to a high energy firearm spec gen and moonlight I feel like you'd get more dmg. Honestly though I like the red look and you crushed it this video so wtf do I know hahahaha 😂
@@bakecakesyum He's wrong. It buffs redshift.
is the explosive thrower any good?? ive literally been playing a build exactly like this for a while but with dagger instead of explosive thrower.
Hell yeah bro explo-throw is goated!! Fast reload, reg hit is rlly good as well as the charged it. Definitely one of the best weapons to get consistent stagger build up. Only downside is it isn’t buffed by basho arms like other melee
Short answer: Yes.
I’ve always wanted to use the explosive thrower just never felt confident about them
Nahh it’s goated bro use it! 😎
Bro salt water? Dude, add honey and lime in too for full affect just saying
Lmaoo I was drinking tea with honey all day bro, you never gargle hot water with a lil salt in it tho? 😂
I’ve never tried honey and lime but imma have to
@bakecakesyum I wasn't bro salt water is awesome just add honey and lime juice in it
Bro made limenade
@matthiass._. dude, which limenade has honey in it
@@wadebrown8772 idk maybe one trying to mimic lemonade
I’m pretty sure neither of those scale off of melee spec…
Imagine trying to do stealth when everyone has scanners
Redshift/bomb thrower? Say more
Wait does the explosive thrower actually get buffed by high fire arm spec, because i thought it didnt
No, coral blade does tho.
Hunter class 15 😂
Majestics are so annoying
