GBO2 RX-0 Full Armor Unicorn Gundam: Why isn't it a support?!

- This video contains two matches I had with the recently released FA Unicorn Gundam on Gundam Battle Operation 2. It is a 700 cost general with amazing midrange damage output, great stagger output, the ability to help other allies activate NT-D sooner and the ability to temporarily buff allies damage output. Its weaknesses include only having 21000 HP, being quite vulnerable in close quarters and the need to fully expose itself from around cover in order to shoot from both arms. This suit recently released and I think that people are still trying to figure it out, a lot of people think it is mediocre but I think that it at least has some potential. I hope that you enjoy watching!
Its primary ranged weapon is a beam magnum with 3400 power, 5 ammo, 5 seconds cooldown, 15 seconds reload, 0.77 seconds swap time, 300m range, 0.8 seconds focus time and 20% stagger value. This needs to focus before firing, but it does incredible damage and has a small splash radius.
Its primary melee weapon is a beam saber with 2900 power, 2.5 seconds cooldown, 0.5 seconds swap time, 60% combo modifier and 140% downswing modifier. This has the neutral swing from Nu Gundam and the downswing from Stark Jegan, making it pretty easy to use.
Its first sub weapon is a head vulcan with 150 power, 40 ammo, 600 RPM, 11 seconds reload, 0.5 seconds swap time, 200m range, 1500 DPS and 6% stagger value. This is really strong for a head vulcan, with great DPS and the ability to stagger in just 1.7 seconds.
Its second sub weapon is a pair of bazookas with 1500x2 power, 12 ammo, 6 seconds cooldown, 20 seconds reload, 1.77 seconds swap time, 300m range and 40%x2 stagger value. This has long reload time but is otherwise quite powerful, with incredible ballistic damage and good splash radius.
Its third sub weapon is a quad beam gatling gun with 250 (377) power, 4% (0%) heat, 520 RPM, 10 (30) seconds overheat, 0.5 seconds swap time, 300m (450m) range, 4% (6%) stagger value and 2167 (3267) DPS. This has incredible DPS, making it very useful for following up with after your stuns. If the heat gauge is full, you can press the reload button to enter limiter release mode, it must stop to fire in this mode but it deals much more damage.
Its fourth sub weapon is a pair of incendiary grenade launchers with 200 power, 6 ammo, 240 RPM, 15 seconds reload, 0.77 seconds swap time, 300m range, 10% stagger value and 450x6 incendiary damage. These don't deal much damage on their own but can set enemies on fire to deal damage over time.
Its fifth sub weapon is a missile launcher with 700 power, 240 RPM, 18 seconds reload, 0.5 seconds swap time, 400m range and 25% stagger value. These have long range, good splash radius and reticle guidance.
Its sixth sub weapon is a pair of cluster missile launchers with 200x2x2x5 power, 12 ammo, 5 seconds cooldown, 15 seconds reload, 0.5 seconds swap time, 300m range and 17%x2x2x5 stagger value. These can deal very high stagger accumulation in a pinch and have good damage.
The FA Unicorn Gundam has 21000 HP, 29 ballistic resist, 31 beam resist and 18 melee resist. It doesn't have that much HP and suffers from somewhat low melee resistance, but benefits from good buffers. It has a 25% damage reduction leg buffer, a 30% reduction buffer for the shields that further guards against beam damage, a 30% reduction back buffer alongside LV1 Maneuver Armor and LV2 Emergency Evasion for its defensive skills.
In terms of mobility it has 130 walk speed, 225 boosting speed, 75 thrust and 75 turning speed. Its mobility is like a mix of NT-D and normal mode Unicorn, its raw stats aren't impressive but it gets LV3 Flight Control, LV3 Forced Injector and LV2 Optimized Cooling Efficiency.
It gets two touchpad activated skills. LV1 NT-D Resonance can be activated at 70% HP or lower, it instantly reloads all weapons; adds +10 ranged modifier, +5 melee modifier, enables allies within 200m to activate NT-D regardless of HP and shortens the time needed for allies to activate Awaken mode by 10 seconds. This comes at the cost of losing 40 HP per second.
LV3 Awaken can be activated after 30 seconds have been spent in NT-D, it loses the benefits from NT-D Resonance, but fully restores you and your allies legs/head HP; buffs you and your allies damage by 10% for 30 seconds and reduces your own reload/overheat times by 35%.
In conclusion, I feel that the FA Unicorn Gundam is flawed. It has pretty short range despite being shooting focused, this doesn't do it any favours considering its poor close combat ability in a cost where the meta generals all excel at melee. It definitely has potential as a support unit to help other Unicorns activate NT-D sooner, and it has incredible DPS at least on paper, but I still have a feeling that it will get buffed at some point. Thanks for watching, and I hope that you enjoyed it!

Feels like a support
Handles like a support
Shoots like a support
General unit for sure.
Smell like a support too
It's ntd skill even acts like a support
@@nexo42069 true ! I got it yesterday and it really feels like a support in all but name.
@@sigurdrr1015 I really hope that ksh repair isn't a general
This thing has FI3 while original Nu only has FI2, it definitely handles like general. ;)
1:37 "Bomb Planted"
I am sure your opponent's teammates all facepalmed at that time
Being general is literally a buff any support player can ask for.
You are immune to raids
True but raids arent a problem in 700
Nah, this suit will still get shredded by melee, even worse, a charged melee. Raid or not.
I think this really only applies to 3A zeta and even then many players will just stand in place when using the HML. The HWS Nu though is a general trapped in a supports body. Im dead serious i have seen a dude survive a 4v1 using it
If only raids are good at 700
Oh wait! They dont!
Not immune to norn one combo.
to qoute a redditor "we cant have the main characters suit to be an support noooo"
I mean Kamille Zeta HML and Judau FA ZZ are support suit
@@MrCreepjo Also HWS Nu Gundam
More like the unicorn suits tbh
@@MrCreepjo those...were the the good days of gbo2
@@anarchyraf5679 well it has heavy armor and a giant shield particle cannon comparing that with fa unicorn is like comparing a tank with car with spikes on it (the tank is the HEAVY Weapons system nu. It even says heavy)
3:20 RUN BANSHEE RUN FOR THIS TIME YOU ARE NOT THE SUPERIOR ONE HERE HAHAHAHA
Pad Should have been like the sinanju where he goes into Final Battle Ver. and takes off all his shit.
After reading your title on your video, i agree. HOW THE FUCK IS THIS UNIT NOT A SUPPORT!?!?
is it just me or do the FAUC and Norn magnums seem to have more splash than the older one shared by Unicorn/Phenex?
The thing is truly so support like in every aspect of its design that I have a theory that it was converted into a general late into its development. 😂
completely wrecking that moon gundam 3:59
(Insert jojo part 5 gang beat down scene)
My question is why doesn't it have a unicorn mode?
Its play style reminds me djeh assault. But with relatively low defences in 700 cost and not a support
i wasted all my tokens on the banner only to get trashed, can only afford the step 6 since buying 31 tokens for 7 is too expensive
am i not supposed to have what i want? what i need? what am i supposed to do?
? only start rolling a 7 step if you have the money and/or tokens to finish it, and then you won't be in this situation. sorry you didnt get it though
Clearly you lack reading comprehension. It clearly says guaranteed FAUC at 7 step 🤣 why even gamble your token if you can’t finish the step up banner
i won't lie to yall, i thought i could push my luck and get unicorn on the steps. i got cocky since i pulled the normal one on the last banner in one multi summon. just the one that spent the tokens that would get me FA rn.
mb gang bandai played tricks on me 😭
@@easelouiz1260 gacha'd
I got FA Unicorn Gundam twice when I pulled
Oh my god they actually made changes to that terribad map.
My thoughts exactly! 😩
I swear if ksh repair is a general i will throw some hands
raid because norn bodies it
GOOD FKIN QUESTION, WHY ISNT IT A SUPPORT?!?!?! REEEE
This was hella disappointing tbh, no shield like the moon gundam, no homing shields like the phenex, terrible close range, shooting is good and that’s about it. Like what.
It’s a very cool suit, but I’ll save a coin for xi gundam
Same, that's my favorite UC gundam
xi gundam? nah keep it for Penelope
@@oratank I'm really just wondering how the minovsky flight systems will work
Not a support, also trash balance patch…
No shield funnels, no javelin, starts with the ntd activated. Ngl, i am kinda disappointed, this was my most anticipated suit for this year and now i think im gonna just grab the sinanju from the store and keep my tokens for the xi.
Wich may be at the aniversary
Idk why the Full Armor Unicorn in a lot of Gundam games always start in NT-D mode (SDGO, EXVS, GBO2). I'm really bored with the Destroy Mode design and wish I could see the Unicorn Mode more
They should have excluded the Vulcans and given it the Hyper Beam Javelin or Shield Funnels
Sheild funnels is for the 4star (awakened) unicorn coming soon :)
@@akumetsu5318i was gonna say the same thing.
What you’re asking is the perfectibility Unicorn. Don’t think they’ll do that but the finally battle unicorn i can see being the last one.
@theviper28111 they know people will pay for perfectibility, i can totally see them doing that as an anniversary or even a near eos event
@@D3sertGh0stman that almost seems like too much 😂
feels lazy design, the Transform is missing, game play are just blands no Shield Funnel i think it suppose to have BIg PoleAxe isn't it? ahhhhhhh so disappointing.
anyway imma pull for it next month anyway since i have enough for 2 anniv suit by the time it come out.
The poleaxe is from the Unicorn Perfectibility, which is a different variation of the Unicorn from the full armor version.
@@roccoroad8465 the novel version has the javelin/poleaxe too, its also a common acessory in the fa unicorn kits
Kinda feels a little wasted having the third shield on the back with the double gatling not do anything at all. Would've made a great way to show the buff when using the special mode for the gattlings, stand still and use all 6 barrels!
I don’t mind having a ranged general, but I’m not a fan of it starting in NT-D mode only to have the transformation as a separate skill regardless. It makes the suit feel unfinished and lacking impact.
How do you get this gundam early? Do you have a youtuber benefit or something close to that?
It’s been out since last night at 10
It became available on Thursday in a multi-step campaign.
I wish I did have a benefit like that but no, I just rolled on the step up banner lol.
@avenger1_gbo260 I'm afraid you lost me there.
@@JaydenLivermorewhat's there not to get?
So sad we can’t have a support unicorn suit😭Insane how it’s a glorified support and can’t even get the typing. Raids are not a problem at 700 anyways.
This would have been a great opportunity to have NTD switch the beam gatlings to a shield funnels, it's still pretty solid with what I've played with it so far, just need proper teammates to keep a frontline for you and LOS on the enemy
I was saving up tokens to get this guy, but they released it earlier than expected on pc, and now i probably won't have time to get it from the 7 step banner. Bandai really is something else.
well time to pay
@oesophagus5614 Nope. The prices for tokens are absolutely outrageous. Plus, Bandai doesn't deserve much money for the PC version when they can't even bring back proper clan rewards. I really want the suit, but I'll just have to skip it.
Watch them release some insane shit like Plan B/Perfectibility and it's just the Banshee but good
Am I the only one thhat doesn't mind fa unicorn being a general?
I don't mind whatever class it is as long as it is good.
I always loved Full Armor suits and seeing that not all of them are supports brings me some joy. It means I can still get to play as the badass armored dude while balancing the team roles.
BB is absolutely terrified to make an overpowered support unit. The only exception you can make to that argument is the Nu HWS, but even though it's strong, I wouldn't necessarily call it OP. It's probably the same reason why Hi Nu wasn't a Support
It's only that strong because the shield funnel ability can withstand more than usual
Rozen, Saz FF, Nu HWS, Kshatriya are all incredibly strong. Sazabi FF is literally at over 100,000 AVERAGE DAMAGE after its buff last month
@@baconflaps my fault, Nu HWS was the only one that came to mind lol. I forgot that some other 700 supports got buffed
>even though it's strong, I wouldn't necessarily call it OP
Please, go ahead and play regular Unicorn vs HWS. On the PC.
HWS is bullshit with its only weakness being somewhat vulnerable to melee raids. Shame that camping HWS doesn't care about it and slaps generals for retarded dmg numbers from afar, covered by its shield.
One of the most broken supports, HWS and Sazabi FF should both be 900 cost and fight each other for eternity.
@@Gun-EZ sounds like a skill issue to me
Not really as op as most said, a decent 700 cost support can still put it on its knee, Nu HWS, Kshat and Rozen Zulu is still a major threat to it, might be a different story for Raids tho
Haha gatling gun go brrrrr
It's already in Destroy mode?
Excuse me, it STARTS in Destroy mode?
It does, but it doesn't really work the same as it does on the other Unicorns. It is hard to compare it with them honestly, it doesn't change much at all when it uses NT-D Resonance and Awaken.
Meanwhile I'm still stuck between pulling for this Unicorn or save tokens for Atlas TB (BC) when it comes out on PC.
This looks less dramatic than the other Unicorns but I love shooters, yet the Atlas BC as a 600c raid seems to be another horrifying shooter raid.
I couldn't get it 😔 but I'm going to protect all the Fa unicorn Gundam like a Banshee Norn
Quite sad we cant activate the Beam Gatling shield funnel and also put a shield but the 700 cost is already the shield fiesta
This thing has FI3 while original Nu only has FI2 LOL
A balanced unicorn wow
I would’ve ditch the idea of the burning missiles and give it the gerobi launcher it has (idk if its a HML) and would be like Raid Banshee’s Gerobi.
And the obvious, I WOULD MADE IT A SUPPORT!
are there any tricks to getting into a game .. like i have been trying to get into a game for a while and find that most of time the lobby never reaches the amount of needed players .. what can i do .. i play on ps5 .. and currently a C rating .... HELP!!
So we gonna have the shield funnel version as seperate suit and the javelin will be on perfectibility. Man, where's my G-first and Xi
Would've been awesome if this had the hyper beam javelin also time to spend all my daily tokens that i've worked so hard for on this
For munty
we need a support unicorn, this is another general bandai and this was supposed to be the support
gbo2 dev be like: let's design a support suit and make it a general/raid
This thing looks like a pain in the ass to approach, much less chase down.
“We have stark jegan at home”
But the home is elon musk’s mansion
I just don’t like that this suit have a poke as its down swing
what does ntd resonance even do lol
Immediate response
Nah ngl it fights like a Raid then a Support
