Would would you need this? You have a subweapon dedicated to being immune to bullets anyways... Sure the start up time is much faster on the force barrier but I dont think you'd need another method of protecting yourself from bullets when you already have one.
My misty build has build arm ams, froglander bs x2, laz legs with a handy mag x pierce gun (mod) combo. that was a typo, was talking about laz hopper, wrote misty instead. - LS3 wrote:

Well Fiz kinda came to my attention when I noticed his low cost and the ability to equip a K shield. It works pretty well despite missing quick jump. - Quote :

If you are using one of those, you don't need to know about it, you just need to build the damn thing. yes, this also applies to cydron, CKAC, wolfguy, etc. wolfguy is pretty fucking ridiculous IN EVERY POSSIBLE WAY since he gets EVERYTHING HE EVER NEEDED. | |

And yeah I needs adivce too since, forever not good at hoppers and I have the cores just I haven't really thought of what weapons to use except pierce gun. :S Estes Mag, Combat Mag, Ballista Shooter, Scouter's Rifle, Handy Baz, Custom Mag. Renny AMs work too. And probably Piercegun AMJs. Probably. forgot bazooka!
there's a list of a lot of weapons on the front page to choose from. | |

I think Winty intentionally did not mention bots wiith internal weaponry as advice concerning those amounts to "slap on two k-shields and kill." | |

| old post deleted because I want to do this right(ie by typing lots of text)
From what I understand(and someone feel free to blow me up on this if I'm wrong) the last breakpoint for HOPPING is 30 walk.(There is some stuff with fly here but I don't get it but you want at least 1 fly or else bad shit happens, trust me on this.) Basically, this means that if you tune to 36 walk, once you start hopping, you lose out on all those extra stats you tuned, as they are only useful when moving from point A to point B. I touched on this very briefly a few pages back when talking about boostrun hoppers, but it's more or less the same idea.
This depends highly on playstyle, but I've never really had a situation where I felt that i would have lived if I had tuned 36 walk instead of 32. Accel Saber has tons of spare capacity, even without taking the last capacity cartridge. Using the leftover capa to tune more HP or TGH instead of the additional walk will, IMO, go a lot further. | |

From the table, it should be clear enough to understand. FLY affects hopping too, as everyone knows, but to a lesser degree when compared to WLK. And the last hop breakpoint is at 30 WLK w/ any FLY. (0 FLY makes it worst anyway.) | |

I'm not talking about Misty Raven, Ion cores, Nemlim cores, or anything else that comes with a weapon built-in. If you are using one of those, you don't need to know about it, you just need to build the damn thing. This applies to mecha, too. | |

| Weapon cores are easy. You pick them if you want to use that weapon. If you don't want to use that weapon, you don't pick that core.
The list of cores is for people who are looking to build a hopper. You select a core based on what fits your needs and what is available, and then a weapon based on the same thing.
There is a "coming soon" under a section called "weapon cores" I eventually plan on reviewing the weapon cores but for now please, stop SUGGESTING i add them. Generally if you are suggesting I add a core it's because YOU ALREADY HAVE THE CORE AND KNOW IT'S GOOD. You are not looking for information on the thing in question, you are simply wanting me to add your favorite whatever the fuck it is. COMING SOON.
also yes, that is exactly what that means. | |

| I can't think of any other new guns or such of relevance, but as far as cores go you might consider looking at Combat Freed BD as an L LND if it wasn't already on your plate. Not available anymore at the moment but it's got a nicely distribution of stats, Quick Jump, and it tops off at 1220 if you take all capa carts though you could fit nice stats with lesser end cost. I'd worked out a decent LL Bulk Mag build earlier on it. | |

| I rewrote the section on M and L cores with a new format. I'll get around to the S section later, since there's a lot more content there I have a lot more notes that I need to sort through. The new format is a lot cleaner and provides only the most important information. Please tell me what you think.
I added quite a few cores to that section as well.
I'll get around to the weapons eventually. | |

| for compact gatlings the most important tune is a basic force tune since this will give every bullet 1 more damage. If you feel you need the speed I'd tune rapid. I do not think that a supply tune is needed. If you are living past your ammo I'd suggest playing more aggressively rather than tuning ammo. | |
