The Longest Reaching Blade in Armored Core 6
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ก.ย. 2024
- So I just finished pretty much everything in Armored Core 6 and since I have access to all the parts now I began brainstorming with whatever few neurons I have left on things I'd like to test out.
How about I check what's the longest distance a single swipe of a laser blade can cover?
Is this viable? No. Is it fun? Not Really, but it's pretty interesting.
I beg of you not to use this in PvP or you'll have a bad time...

ah yes the true end game of ac games - fucking around in the garage like a megalomaniac mechanic. this is one of the many reasons i love this franchise.
I really hope for dlc for AC6 not only for more missions but more parts like imagine a rocket hammer that hit hard but slow deployment and storage or a chain axe that's acts as lighter chainsaw with being faster but less damage.
I'm more hoping for weapon arms and internal bays so we have missile intercepters and really big guns.
What I'm hoping for if they decide to do DLC is for them to re-introduce right handed melee weapons, I miss my Knight Build something fierce.
Shoulder extensions, right hand melee weapons, and internal weapon bays and actual hangar units. I'm aware you can replace back weapons with arm weapons with OS tuning, but my compulsive need to slap on every bloody gun conceivable to my AC like it's Last Raven all over again is something I miss in ACVI.
Oh, and weapon arms. I wanna see how hilarious some of them can get with 6th Gen gameplay.
I would really love more utility parts like flares to counter rockets or maybe a shield that makes you move faster when its deployed but overheats if its out too long
I wanna have special anims for if they do add melee on the right hand, imagine doing a cool at spin with dual chainsaws
This one also gets props for being supremely stylish! 🎉
The slowmo adds so much to killing blows honestly...
@@SilverGlint So true. It's a nice little dopamine rush, and leaves no room for uncertainty about your accomplishment. 👌
@@SilverGlintdude I know I’m so glad they added the slow mo it’s perfect for photo mode
Very stylish
It's the closest you can get to a iaido slash
Definitely love that you took the time to work out these numbers, and reinvigorated my initial love for the laser blade. Went with the dagger, moonlight and even the baton or lance at times, but the sheer joy of that almighty oldschool swipe the laser blade gives is literal “chef’s kiss” in quality and fulfilment. Plus the charged version reminds me of Jehuty(ZOE1&2) doing the burst slash attack
Precisely this for me too! I just love the classic proper laser blade too much
It really does look cool as hell especially the charged attack which shows like 6 small laser blades form that are reminiscent of Japanese kunai.
I hate how I can hear the vocals of the music from how much I played Metal Gear Rising
You're not alone, I constantly kept singing while editing...
Silver Glint doing the stuff he say is silly, but makes me think. What is the furthest reach you can get with a blade? Keep up the good work Glint =)
Thank you ACL! The intrusive thoughts type of content holding me hostage with these silly questions
Assault Armor would make for a nice addition to this mech. Gonna try it out, thanks for the video!
Yeah feel free to just tack in whatever you want, keep in mind I got rid of any expansion slot because it surprisingly has weight and was enough to reduce the range by 1 meter lol
Just so you know, the charged attack of the coral oscillator gives it a range of like, 250m, but its slow and you're locked in place, itd be cool if you checked it out tho!
If you played DS2, that particular attack is Fume Knight's trademark move,even has distinctive same sound.
@@HiroyaFujimiyawhat mission do you get it in?
@@cow12344 coral oscillator is the last reward of combat log hunt which is as default you need to open all the stage mission until NG++, and complete all the stage with combat log icon in it
@@cow12344you have to 100% the combat logs to get it
Weakest most defenseless pilot in the game imo is the one that screams,”Mad Stomp!!!”
Now u can do a one two punch build with laser blad for lunge, then a punch and finally the rectal prober, pilebunker
Imagine an AC that go into an all-out gundam fight style territory in terms of stylishness and flashiness of the moveset
This is the way
You get bonus awesome points for using old school AC music :)
Thank you! I've been around since AC3 so I do know some bangers!
Hellloo Skies
The blade technique I love to use it procing the blade attack at the end of an assault boost. It comes out so quick that even a charge attack ends up hitting them. I use the really fast assault boost boosters that look like beaks.
Ngl. Favorite part of all the head pieces is when the Raven head you unlock goes into combat mode (When you enter combat or Assault Boost the visor flips down). Taking photos has never felt so cool lmaooo
hm. that ~200m lunge really opens up the book for weapons to build stagger with. the el cheepo liniar rifle builds a lot of stagger and they probably wouldn't expect you to be able to capitalize on a stagger from that far.
Funny that you called this information worthless when it’s actually extremely useful for anyone wanting to make a melee build. As the fact you figured out the AC weight greatly affects the distance your melee attack covers is something most players wouldn’t have even considered.
loved this vid not only for the content, but the editing style is just so much fun. the music(fav soundtrack), the little conversation, it was honestly just fun. good vid
Hahah, absolutely hilarious video. Bravo! Nice editing.
A couple things I've picked up from other videos people might want to know also to help the longest reaching blades idea. So you can QB during a melee charge and keep doing that to infinitely close distance with any melee that has a dashing charge attack I believe, not sure. That makes most of them usable at any range and with a lot of movement to help dodge incoming damage. All as long as you have the EN. As for other builds you can just use the laser lance and basically cheese the forward distance very easily. Not sure how far it goes but definitely far. And finally a tip for landing that illusive charged pilebunker. You can actually use the first tip in this comment in conjunction with a back mounted pilebunker and as you QB you do it towards them and then swap out your weapons to the pilebunker and hold LT to get an almost guaranteed charge attack. Takes a bit of practice but very satisfying to pull off. Good luck, Ravens
do you think it is worth it on a light/speedy build replacing a lighter melee weapon? (using 2 melee weapons)
@@Chris3s Not sure what you're asking is worth it or not, but I'd say yeah at least learning the quick boost out of a melee charge is very useful in all cases PvE and PvP. If you're talking about swapping out the pilebunker with a different melee then doing the tech with that it's probably not necessary at all since most melee other than the pilebunker have reasonable ranges, but it looks cool and feels real good so go for it
thanks, yea I meant for weight reasons mostly as it is quite a bit heavier and requires different parts then @@Haf-A-Devon
This seems incredibly fun
It's very fun, but I'm not good at making it work!
Though I think if you pair this concept with a high stagger light weapon this might be good actually!
Love how the last one straight up pulled the anime dash slash.
This actually looks pretty fun, I should make a melee oriented frame. Give it a pulse shield LS, mess around with some energy melees, stick a longer range rifle on the right shoulder and just throw the right hand out in tandem
I was also testing lunge a couple weeks ago and I found that if you quickboost before attacking the effective range is increased to 280 and assault boost bringing it down to 260 instead which might be because of the air break effect you get when canceling assault boost. Overall great video 👍
can't you smoothly transition from an assault boost while keeping your momentum? i have heard that you can do that, it's either tapping the ascend button or the quickboost button, can't remember off the top of my head
@@hardboiled_cat I will try that thanks for the tip
@@Adultfeetman thank me when you get a positive result instead, my memory is pretty spotty so I definitely do not remember where I heard that.
@@hardboiled_cat will do
Ngl this video opened my eyes to what 'invisible stats' there are in the customisation. I might actually experiment with builds more for NG++
Lunge might also be affected by the chest stat Booster Adjustment. Considering weight was a factor it might also tie into the lunge distance!.
quick tip for future videos: you can sort parts by stat so when you're trying to find the part with the highest or lowest of a specific stat you don't have to look through each one
Yeah I should do that but my legacy garage muscle memory is so ingrained into me at this point it's faster if I do it this way ahah
You're making the game 10x more fun
Dude very nice with the dialogue being like a briefing very unique you got a sub brother keep it up ☝
As someone who recently 100% the game this is the kind of information I need
I hear sundowner's theme and I can barely keep myself from singing.
Neat. I might use this info to supplement my pistol build
I love dope single purpose esoteric builds. Even if it's impractical , it looks really sick dashing that far
That's the mindset, it's a matter of doing it not because it's good but because you can!
ladys and mentelgin a jet stream sam build has been made
"You're going to anger someone in the comments..." "Yeah... Fuck the Moonlight..."
Me: 😡😡😡
That's the only blade I use.
this is the storm that is approaching sword
Great work Raven
I think this is very useful information
As someone that ran the laser blade my entire time playing, I wholeheartedly approve. Love it!
Cultured Raven
I didnt even knew there was a meter number on the enemies lol
This just makes me miss my Knight Build from armored core 4 and For Answer, especially as dual wielding melee weapons in this game would be sick as hell due to the potential for move sets.
Fun fact: using this same setup, the laser lance can reach up to (a slighty inconsistent) 227m of distance on an uncharged hit, beating the laser blade by 27m (from what i tested, LB can reach up to 200m but its really inconsistent).
Yeah the laser lance beats everything and it's not even close!
meta be damned those fights look rad as fuck
the vintage swipe
But what aBoUt tHe DaGge- *gets black bagged into an unmarked van*
Abi was already contacting the local underground forces
Cool melee only build!
I did the same thing with 2 empty hands and Laser Dagger on left shoulder so I can use both fists.
I'm going to try Laser Blade now. :D
... yep, now I'm tempted to make a physical combat build.
Tried it, you get owned a lot but it's really satisfying to get some style points. Two melee for left arm switching back and forth lots of kicking. A small assault rifle or smg to keep stagger built up and a side grenade launcher to put some heat on someone that is staggered but has too much distance to punish
The Wuerger for me has been pairing rather exceptionally well with melee weapons that have the initial burst. Have it charging while melee cancelling for a quick semi long range laser poker which does a decent amount of impact
Laser lance is a must, the best melee weapon in the game by far. The 2nd one can be debateable, the pile bunker has a shit thrust by high impact and good damage.
I like finding out useless things... subscribed
Thought I was the only one doing this kind of shit 🤣 builds for;
- Most # of QB before exhaustion
- Shortest EN exhaustion recovery delay
- Shortest EN recovery delay
- quickest EN recovery
- Fastest AB speed
- Longest AB duration
Rest assured Raven, there are a lot of weird minds In our ranks
This must've taken a while to make
It took quite a while yeah!
laser blade ofcourse. NO OCILATOR DOESN'T COUNT BECAUSE ITS JUST PEW PEW WITH EXTRA STEPS.
the sweeping rings of the laser blade is great clear. But the oscillator has much longer range on a charged sweep. Never use the noncharged on the oscillator.
Non charged is a good mixup, and it basically 2 shots light ACs
0:18 f## he was already right on him so dam fast i woulda take like a completely boost bar down to even get near anyone, cause for me goin without evasive mov hekka damage to my nice AC
Truly, the greatest sword in armoured core 6
Subbed. BTW Could the EN load also be a factor, I wonder? But that would be too many variables.
all you gotta do is fly and then this blade will miss.
All you gotta do is adjust your position on the z axis, and this blade will hit!
Ahh yea..... my fav lucky charm melee weapon
The laser dagger is also a blade though...
Target verified. Commencing hostilities.
Thanks for the video awesome choice a music to go with a video about blades and did you do something to ABI she seemed a little more sassy than usual?
Yeah I poked her with a stick!
@@SilverGlint while trying to find the range of the stick?
@@killerninjakitty815 yes!! Ahah
Now make a decent build out of it. Maybe a ducket to keep up acs strain and better arms for melee spec.
Laser sword is awesome and a great callback to classic swords, but im gonna have to say the Coral Oscillator is the longest reaching sword...
Not with a single swipe, only with the charged attack, which I'mm not counting here
@@SilverGlint Fair enough if you only count uncharged attacks, but to be pedantic the Coral Oscillators charge attack is probably the singlest and swipiest attack in the game =P
That it is!@@baval5
I remember previous AC games on PS2 actually changed how blades attacked depending on the leg type. Quads would stab instead of slash. I'm way too lazy to test it myself, but maybe leg type could make some difference?
Sadly It doesn't It doesn't but if I find something out I'll update it
i think the chest piece makes a difference with its "booster efficiency adjustment" stat.
I need to test that out
@@SilverGlint didn't test it but thought it woud make sense. was i right?
I seem to recall that only changes the amount of energy used by the boosters, not the thrust. But let's wait for the test results.
part of me wonders if the *shortest* melee option has some bonus to it in exchange for being harder to hit
that'd be the charged pile bunker or chainsaw I believe
They need a spear for this game🗿
Good video
what about the weapon from hunter rank 15? thats my new favorite melee weapon, although I have to pair it with a second one to keep up melee attacks due to the cooldown.
That's the coral oscillator
RED SUN IS A BANGER💥💥💥💥❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
200m is what the game defines as "long range" when you inspect long range assist on the FCS menu. So basically, your laser blade is a threat at ranges that exceed the effective range of many guns in the game. Lmfao.
I know right?? It's so hilarious, I partially thought about this because I was a bit bummed out with how ricochet and ranges worked in this game.
It's so hilarious to think that this effectively out ranges a handgun
SCIENCE!
i want dual wielding melee in DLC
What is the song that starts around 5:36 it's a banger
AC Silent Line - Falling Down
Did I miss the Laser Dagger? It doesn't count as a blade?
Yeah I didn't count it as a blade
@SilverGlint damnn :( I do love staying thematic in a build and bounce between the Laser blade/dagger or dagger/cutter? I forgot rusty's poleblade name
I do love this kind of content! Hope to see more
Hypothetically if pvp was slower paced you could fake out the Enemy with the shorter and longer animation of the dagger charge attack then switch to the quick long blade for mix up
@@bossdozz yeah that's a great idea, with cancels and fake outs this can actually work somehow
@SilverGlint oh yeah! I totally forgot about melee canceling I need to get back on and practice especially with your juicy reach build 200m dashes could probably spin someone dizzy
dash distance might have too do with how much the AC weighs. lighter means further hence why you got a bit less with the mid weight reverse joints.
Exactly
Wow this is some cool stuff. Shame I can't use it because of _Balteus._
I would say challenge accepted but you're right, fuck balteus with this build.
I think you shoulda tried with the other melee weapons, but this was still interesting
If you're wondering the Drill wins by a vast margin so it would've been a bit pointless!
I'm sure it's not as good but why not test the laser dagger. It's the lightest of the melee weapons so couldn't it have had the longest reach?
@@Taziod ( I did test all the melee weapons, and the dagger has surprisingly short reach!) But I wanted to do specifically "blades"!
@@SilverGlint Why does the coral oscillator count as a blade?
@@Taziod because it behaves like a traditional blade ( with a long trailing beam) and its description states it manipulates coral to form a blade-like beam!
Great vid.
Thank you!
longest blade? me like
so u ddnt use this build in 1v1?
maybe use it on 3v3 instead, coz i saw a onepunchman troll player in 3v3 who only has pilebunker equiped lol
Pilebunker is actually pretty nuts though, I've been thinking of doing THE WALL AC6 edition, in the works
How does the charged Laser Dagger compare?
It's surprisingly short range since you don't lunge as much
Have you tried a Dragon Slayer build?
I haven't! Don't know what it is
Moonlight blade goes 250m
Yes, however fuck the Moonlight as stated, since it's a projectile
Might i suggest ways to use jamming grenade effectively? Been experimenting with it for avoiding dmg as much as possible and trick your opponent
Good idea! I'll look into it Taro!
Also curious about that one. I have a bunch of questions about how exactly it works that can only really be answered by labbing it out with somebody.
Does cores with different booster efficiency values have an effect on your reach?
Good question! I don't think so? But I did not test that!
You gotta test that
Booster efficiency only looks at QB EN consumption and then does a deductive or multiplicative factor, melee attacks has a different EN consumption
Classic ac music for classy man.
I mean.... at a functional level.... technically the coral oscillator lol.
Ima be real wit you chief I think the coral oscillator has your range beat
only if you use the charge attack which I'm counting out! For single swipes I don't think it does, but if you manage to find a setup for it let me know !
@@SilverGlint yeah if I remember correctly the charge attack range is around 235m which is absolutely ridiculous 😂
@@venuztrvp yeah charging it up is bonkers
@@SilverGlint on another note tho this is the first one of your videos Ive watching and I think the content is great
Keep up the good work 🙌🏿
Thank you Raven, I appreciate it!@@venuztrvp
👏
this vid a tutorial on how to
troll ur opponent in 1v1 XD
What is that female ai voice, I wanna use it too kek
The male one is your voice right, or is it AI too 😂
They are both TTS provided by the AWS Polly paid web service!
The male is Mathew - English US neural

@@SilverGlint i see, imma buy it too later
Also thanks for making this video, I was always wondering about the farthest reaching blade
Mostly just sad that you even got hit by mad stomp
Skill issue
@@SilverGlint lol, I'm just thinking of how much everyone shits on Rummy in the story lol.
@@CreativityNull poor Rummy, he just wanted to pilot mad stomp
compensating? 😅
Always
10min to optimize a build on the worst melee weapon of the game, damn.
That's how we do it here
No dagger ;-;
Sadly the dagger is not a "blade" hehe
@@SilverGlint Wait, it's not...? What the heck is it then?
@@DGneoseeker1 it's... a dagger :) 🗡️
