Another hybrid from the nutjob who brought you Pulsycait.... (advice/suggestions needed)

Well, came up with another hybrid concept(despite the Shaden core already being at lv 5), and so far, it's fared better than any other air I have, save for my Mach Knight Ace...of course, 3 arena battles do not make a success, but it's been positive so far, so....

Spoiler:

It's rare I get to mess with nice stuff like this, and the exclusion of the Shaden Bs was a necessary evil to make room for the Gwyain Am, with the Raystag Hd acting as a 'side arm'...got some room left for tuning, but as usual, I'm Frauever poor...so I have to make every tune count!

So, please keep it nice...I'm feeling positive about this one, and that's a rarity for me!

p.s.: The name is likely a placeholder until I can think of some way to fuse the bot names...Gwayden, maybe?

Well let's see here...
Since you have a Gwyain Am2, there really is no need for a side arm because it has a whopping 1300 ammo, and I don't think you'll be using all of it in a single match. The only time you would ever need more ammo is if you keep using hyper shots, and even then you'd probably still last the entire match.

I don't get the reason why you use Shell Guard a lot... I would probably remove it for more capacity or even float dash and I think he gets stun regain?

For BS, you can keep the Crescent Saint BS or maybe get yourself a Tengu Bs in order to gain some height before battle.

Ams are good, same set up I use.

Legs are decent enough I guess. Gives a very hefty boost in HP and other stats, though I use Crimrose Legs myself.

Replace Raystag HD with something else. Maybe use Victory FB HD or Mach Knight HD2.

Otherwise, I'm biased to say that this can be a monster if used right. Beam Gatlings are so highly under rated yet they're amazing against other lnd units.

I generally tend to trade mobility for defensive measures...but I nabbed a cart reset items with some star coins, so it's always an option to redo it....

Still uncomfortable using float dash...and since I'm going to be in the air alot, why would I need it in the 1st place?

float dash is a preference or a must, which for shaden, it is a preference, considering if you use tengu BS, you'll be flying in the air for the majority of the time. However, float dash is there to get you out of any sticky situation you get yourself stuck in. Float dashing away is faster than jumping and then moving away.

That makes sense, given the size of the bot...a quick 'run away!' ability could help...gotta think this out in my head....

That AM. So jelly.

Take that cost cannon of an HD off.
I recommend switching that Accel AM for Gwyain AM. Because sexiness and TGH.

Also, switch that BS for Parpo 99SP BS for additional supporting action!

just junk it; it's only level 5

no point wasting a reset card on it

This is what I quickly came up with slapping things together given limited information on parts.

Spoiler:

Something like might be good. Shaden has some nice capacity to play with.
