GBO2 Dolmel: Best melee damage at 450 cost?!
ฝัง

- This video contains two recent matches I had with the LV1 Dolmel. The Dolmel is a 450 cost raid with insane damage with the heat pile downswing, multiple melee weapons, high mobility, high HP, access to LV2 Power Accelerator and decent stun ability. Its major weakness is that it does not have a dodge roll, and it also lacks Damage Control which could have made up for it. This is a pretty fun suit, it can do ridiculous melee damage but its lack of defensive skills compared to other raids makes it relatively simple for the strong 450 roster of generals to deal with. I hope that you enjoy watching!
Its primary weapon is an arm beam gun with 1800 power, 3.5 seconds cooldown, 80% heat, 15 seconds overheat, 0.77 seconds swap time, 300m range and 10% stagger value. This is a thoroughly average instant stun, it gets the job done basically. Though do keep in mind you can't fire it while falling, so you can't attack supports from above too well.
Its primary melee weapon is a beam saber with 1900 power, 2 seconds cooldown, 0.77 seconds swap time, 70%/49% combo modifier and 70%x2 downswing modifier. This has low overall power but has short cooldown and a pretty fast downswing animation at close range. It is your go to combo starter.
Its first sub weapon is a chest missile pod with 250 power, 10 ammo, 300 RPM, 10 seconds reload, 0.5 seconds swap time, 250m range, 1250 DPS and 20% stagger value. On paper this seems like a highly effective stagger tool similar to suits with arm grenade launchers, but the missile velocity makes it somewhat awkward to stun with.
Its second sub weapon is a heat pile with 1000 power, 5 seconds cooldown, 0.33 seconds swap time, 100%x2 neutral swing modifier, 150%x2 side swing modifier and 130%x5 downswing modifier. This weapon has long cooldown and seemingly low power, but neutral/side swings can heavy stagger the enemy. The downswing is basically the shoulder tackle animation found on many Zeon suits but it hits multiple times, it also has the unique property of ignoring enemy buffer skills. This can do absolutely gigantic damage if you can land it, but is a little awkward to learn.
Its third sub weapon is a pair of beam sabers with 2200 power, 3 seconds cooldown, 0.5 seconds swap time, standard combo modifiers, 50%x2 side swing modifier and 160% downswing modifier. This does pretty incredible damage with downswings but it uses the pretty slow melee animations from the Act Zaku Commander Type, so it isn't always possible to use as a combo starter.
Its fourth sub weapon is a pair of arm beam guns with 200x2 power, 16% heat, 15 seconds overheat, 0.77 seconds swap time, 300m range and 5%x2 stagger value. This has poor stagger value but can do pretty good damage at midrange if you need to shoot at a support.
The LV1 Dolmel has 19000 HP, 14 ballistic/beam resist and 20 melee resist. Its resistances are pretty average but its high HP lets it endure quite a beating. It also has a LV1 buffer for the legs and LV2 buffer for the back binder to further improve durability. It only has LV2 Maneuver Armor for a defensive skill though, making it very vulnerable to stunlocking while being easy to stun accumulate at the same time.
It also has 135 walk speed, 210 boosting speed, 70 thrust and 75 turning speed. This alone is pretty incredible mobility, but it also has LV2 Forced Injector which allows it to dance around cover pretty easily. Keep in mind that it lacks Flight Control, so attacking from above is not going to be too viable.
It has the rare skill LV2 Power Accelerator as well. This allows you to boost away from every type of melee clash animation, which then gives you the opportunity to swing at the enemy while they are still recovering. This is basically a skill used exclusively to bully other raids, which means you can seek to clash with them on purpose to get a free combo off on them.
Overall I feel like the Dolmel is one of those suits which looks scary on paper but is ultimately very flawed. If it is allowed to get off its crazy melee combos then it will deal gigantic damage even to a general, but I don't think this is very realistic considering how much easy stagger accumulation the 450 generals get. It is trivial for a suit like Jeda, GM III Powered, Pale Rider VG, Kampfer or Gelgoog Stutzer to put a stop to Dolmel. Once it is stunned you have absolutely no recourse and you will proceed to eat the highest damage combo the general has, which is quite a lot in the case of the ones at 450 cost. I think it would be much better to take a more consistent raid for 450 cost like Nero Trainer or Silver Haze Kai. The firepower of the Dolmel is excessive and not really needed for the job of raid, especially for what it gives up in return. Thanks for watching, and I hope that you enjoyed it!

Bro did that Black Rider kill your family, you didn't have to do him THAT dirty 😭💀
😈
I cannot for the life of me figure out what that black rider's plan was
if i hide well enough.. maybe he will go away... * gets slaughtered* XD not a wise battle plan
@@WildArmACF😂😂😂😂
The Beginning was Disrespectful Dude XD
Indeed
@@noir___lime2662 yep
Stupid Black Rider experienced what a stupid Black Rider will v('-' )v
We went from a time where BB were afraid to give any kind of stun to ~450 cost raids, to one with an insta stun Beam gun, 3 melee weapon - one of which does 130%x6 - and 20K healthpool. I always marvel at the amount of powercreep in lower costs.
450 cost went from crap like Unit 4 and pre-buff Alex to monsters that barely even belong in the cost like Pale Rider VG, Jeda and GM III Powered. So I guess it is kinda understandable why they are trying to make raids harder to compensate.
The devs balancing mindset is explicitly built around powercreep. One of their old dev blogs stated that they prefer to buff weaker suits up to the power level of the problem suits rather than to nerf the problem suits directly. I think this mindset worked for a quite a while but now it is causing problems.
The amount of suits they buff monthly is simply not enough for the pace of suits they are adding, basically.
@@Nekrosmas Not only this, but for some random reason they're content to buff already strong suits on occasion too, making those options stand out even more than before.
I think what adds to this match is that it's filled with every other 400-450 melee monster raid (and GM powered III / Kampfer, my beloveds) which really highlights how easily this suit can go toe to toe with them
What a beast, at one point you were like, "Hell with it, I"LL TAKE ALL OF YOU ON AT ONCE!"
The wiggle at the beginning was mad disrespectful lmao
So true XD
I swear my team intentionally leaves me behind when im a support, when theres a dolmel on the enemy team. Then i proceed to get oneshot.
Isn't it fun when you play general and lose 75% of your HP against Raid in a single combo?
good lord this thing is a beast
any tips to manage the burst?
I found that your burst seldom overheat when combating enemy
What should I be aware of when using burst for melee combat?
Black rider was camouflaging
2:57 "My God!"
I wish pc generals can go out like this, so raids can do their works
Was lucky enough to get this on just one 10 spin.
It's a fun suit but it definitely is held back by some things. Makes me wonder if they gave it a dodge or stealth if that would help or make it to strong.
Don't think it needs any buffs, for now. This is basically the 450 native equivalent of Red Rider with more reliable options.
Definitely intended that this unit struggles a bit to get in/out while it has insane dps.
Red Rider has the same issue of unable to get in/out reliably, and the unit is still top tier meta on Japan communities.
Situational damage does matter, especially an ultra high one. Don't forget this is a team-oriented game.
If it can reliable dish out his damage, 450 cost balance would be completely ruined.
How many spins did it take for you to get it dude? Suit looks up my street but I don't really have the money to dump a load of tokens on it.
This gameplay is on console. I have had it for a while but only made a video recently cause the suit came to PC. I think I got it randomly in rolls for other stuff.
@@avenger1_gbo260 ah yes, I figured it was released in the same manner as it was on the steam version, consider it a big brain moment lol.
Great gameplay as per usual dude.
What gave that black rider away? I could not see him on my phone screen
Radar. I had a feeling Black Rider was causing the jamming, and I saw him on the radar for a split second before he activated the cloak.
@@avenger1_gbo260 Wow that was like a split second. Nice intuition!
@@avenger1_gbo260 new-type!!!
Are you doing this on k&m? I cannot swap that
Fast that accurately
You can see controller prompts when he leaves his suit.
Ah didn't notice
Using controller. It is hard at first but you will get used to it.
2:55 Damn…
Another reason to nerf avenger 💀
Keep in mind at 450 this thing has to deal with the Kampfer
Even better, my Full Armor Ground Type Gundam. I have been slaughtering Dolmel's with that the last few weeks to the point I can pretty nearly take all their life in one exchange.
The skill ceiling in this game seems endless
avenger is easily if not the best, 1-3 gbo2 pilots on yt. skill wise, haven't seen too many on this level.
@@swords1467yea, i've been watch some people playing gbo 2 on yt and none of them can play like avenger.
I try what avenger did but its actually hard to do (like connecting 2 different weapon attack, stun and rush with melee)
@@abdulrasyiidthe only close one I can think of is top tier gbo2
@@swords1467 I wanna see if he does well in space
@@user-vs9fn6sw3z idk about everyone else, but i HATE space 😅
This, hazel II and the Silver haze kai are the only raids i bother using that i find fun as shit. Most of the raids feel too boring but those 3 are fucking silly
EZZ is my main. that things a tank with loads of weapons, and i love the "projectile" heavy slash, for 1-shot support kills.
imo this only needs a touch up with it getting damage control or they give it a dodge roll since it's an easy unit to stun/get trapped via stuns when using without anything to get out of a stun loop
Imagine Red Rider getting a dodgeroll and more Damage Control.
450 Cost Balance will completely break if this unit with insane dps can get in / out easily.
Don't forget that this is a team-oriented game. Good premades will be able to abuse that DPS and the opponents will not be able to make a comeback. Bad idea honestly.
Stuff like this is why I really think that whoever balances raids dont play other classes much or do they care about actual balance at this point. Raids that can take litterally 90% of a non advantage units health before the full knockover cycle ends is broken. Just outright broken
This thing isn't that good though. It has really high damage output but its large and easy to stagger accumulate, without any damage control or emergency evasion. If you can get past a 450 cost meta full of Kampfer, Pale Rider VG, Jeda and GM III Powered then you deserve to do that much damage lol.
this suit is so broken it makes playing any support at 450 just not fun man.
