JESUS FUCKING CHRIST I HATE BALTEUS. Already 2 hours and I've only gotten him to half hp, I don't want to quit the mission and grind money for different parts my build is good enough... I can use a bazooka or a plasma rifle (the one that scattershots when charged) and 2 blades, but he's an Elden Ring boss thrown into Armored Core

It's been so long so I don't remember much other than him being a wall. Get used to it and enjoy the ride.

He sucks in part because you have so few gear choices at that point. But on the plus side every other boss will seem easy by comparison.

this game is retarded so, despite a limited energy meter and guns, the correct way to play is to stay in midair at all times 2 inches from the boss

It's been a while but I recall showcasing how to do this fight easy with the starting setup to one of my friends.

I'm going to recommend going with whatever the best stuff you can get is, but the basic idea is when he does his huge missile attack you should use your overdrive to close in on him, do a side dash to avoid getting hit in the back, and smack the hell out of him with the pulse sword.

Basically you need to make sure that you are sticking to him and using the PULSE damage sword, which iirc is the one you start with. It will destroy his shield then you can unload on him with your big damage weapons.

I do always start like that, but it's still too hard. Sometimes he doesn't do the BLEEP BLEEP to fire the 50% hp rocket and that screws the round (or maybe it's just hard to notice)

C-spider is really really obnoxious depending on your build, I'd say Balteus, C-Spider, and Ibis were the three big walls in the game

Your setup looks fine. I'd have to see game play to see what you need to adjust. Reverse joint legs might make it a bit easier as vertical dodging with jumps is pretty effective in this game, but with your setup I think you should be fine as long as you're paying attention and dodging his big attacks.

Something I didn't realize until someone pointed it out to me is you can fully customize your mech when you die if you wait until the game over screen pops up. So if you're stuck on him because you didn't bring in the right setup and don't want to quit the mission, then you can still re-spec.

Also I swear shitty frame rate makes his missles harder to dodge. When the game came out a year or two ago, I had a shitty old computer and couldn't be Balteus after trying for 2 hours. I built a new computer a few months ago, re-tried the game, and beat him second try. Or also maybe my first attempt on my old shitty computer was pre-nerf and that's why he seemed so much harder then.

Nvm I'm stupid, changed the arms and blade and it's all good now.

This isn't optimal but it looks cool, I farmed that thruster for nothing since I can't fit it here

You'll get better frames as the game goes on and especially in new game + cycles

So a new ac is coming? There's a resurgence of ac threads coalescing into existence.

You can use 2 laser cannons, you just need to use legs with a higher load limit, and a generator with a higher capacity. Using the lightest gear won't necessarily help, you have to pay attention to the stats on each piece. If you're unsure of what something is, read the in game help.

fly at him constantly with the super fly thing
use the kick when you get close, the kick is really fucking good
use a melee weapon and your expansion attack thing when he staggers
he's not a build check he's an aggression check, you have to keep pressure on to stop his shields regening and take advantage of the free damage windows when they break
