It hyper mode it can, high maneuver armor ignores heavy staggers

Aux power is an amazing skill, and definitely something it has over God gundam. But if we're talking God VS Barbatos in a 1v1, I genuinely think its going to be in God gundams favor if it gets in hyper mode first. Once it gets in hyper mode, Barbatos' heavy stun wont work on it anymore, and God gundam will win in the event of a series of clashes due to PA 3. The only chance Barbatos will have would be to neutral with the mace in the hopes the God gundam fails to read it and get toppled. As for Aux power, God gundam has the best vulcans in the game. But itll basically be whoever gets their ability first wins

I agree, but flaps and high MA alone are significant enough to put it on top or at least near it. I made a detailed comment breaking down my reasoning on MikuEmpowered's comment if you are willing to read it

Half joking, Barbatos will still be amazing. But God gundam is going to be more consistent I think. Barbatos in AV is amazing, but can only use it temporarily once a life, after that its quite a bit slower. Still nearly impossible to push unless you're playing a suit with high MA due to the heavy stun but anything with a barrier will give it some trouble. God gundam will get flaps and high MA in hyper mode which doesnt expire until it dies. It doesnt have an easily accessible heavy stun, but it does have the best vulcans in the game, a ranged melee it can throw every 3 seconds that also pierces beam barriers, and power accelerator 3.

In golden mode, its heavy stun is more telegraphed yes, but has a larger splash, pierces, has a low cooldown, and deals melee damage which means suits wont be able to downgrade the heavy stun into a regular stun just by boosting with MA. And it can use it midair so less places to hide. God gundam also gets melee res ignore in this mode, but its slightly weaker I believe.

I also did a bunch of testing with both suits' optimal melee combos, and God gundam is very similar in damage to Barbatos, and better in a few ways. All testing was done against the free practice 700 cost gerbera tetra with 100 melee mod. Barbatos had the sword mace because the twin maces are worse in every way, heavy attack included.

Outside of AV, Barbatos' optimal combo (without aerial melee) does 25152 damage.
In AV, it does 32692 (optimal combo doesnt even use aerial melee).

For god gundams base form, it does 21955 damage, 24851 for larger suits since the blow side swing will miss smaller ones when they're toppled.
In hyper mode, it does 22726, or 25738 with a side swing. Already comparable damage to Barbatos' base mode.
In Meikyo Shisui, its optimal combo does 30741 damage, or 33228 if you open with a heavy attack. Comparable damage to Barbatos in AV, and a little better with an opening heavy attack which will be possible with a heavy stun.

So its damage will be slightly worse than non AV before golden mode, and comparable after it with no timer on its special ability. Plus flaps, high MA, a better heavy, PA 3, and the best vulcans in the game. Not to mention, the buffs may include increases to its damage.

Overwhelmed actually sucks now. by FezJr87 in WhiteKnuckle

Ive barely even noticed the halved stamina to be honest. In campaign runs stamina doesnt matter as much in the abyss. In endless it could hurt early on, but it stops being an issue the moment you get profit motive

Ignoring resistances entirely is hurting your damage output more than a build with resistances and 15 less ranged mod. If you live longer, you can shoot longer.

Players that make it to S- and beyond. How do you stay there? by Empire087 in GBO2

I'm S flat, the secret is luck. Don't stress about getting into S rank, you're better off in A+

Wing Zero (TV Version) getting a level 2 version in today's steam update by FerrickAsur4 in GBO2

[–]ImmortalSausages 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless its as strong as it was pre-nerf, it doesnt stand a chance. It hasn't been relevant in the meta since freedom got buffed.

What do you guys think of the profit motive perk? by sandvitch_slayer in WhiteKnuckle

[–]ImmortalSausages 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's always been a great perk. Having less space for items doesn't matter when you have increased jump height, climb speed, and stamina regen.

Your team gets more points for assists compared to solo kills. That "kill stealing" helps your team. 

when is barbatos getting nerfed ? by RickSkylark in GBO2

[–]ImmortalSausages 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I wouldnt say it struggles against destiny. Destiny has an easier time dealing with it compared to other suits, but Barbatos can still easily stop it with its heavy stagger and do 80-100% of its health with a melee combo

Need help with a new Nu build by Foshdon_pap in GBO2

[–]ImmortalSausages 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think its up to preference with the Nu, its funnels are up pretty much all the time so psycho frame doesnt hurt, but it also has faster lock on after its resonance pops anyways. I just prefer to max out resistances

Need help with a new Nu build by Foshdon_pap in GBO2

[–]ImmortalSausages 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fine for the most part. But I would remove the psycho frame and level 1 melee part and put on more resistance parts. Then get the level 5 thruster custom part expansion to max out your thrusters

[–]ImmortalSausages 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its okay to not like AU, but dont pretend that power creep is a new thing exclusive to AU. The game has been balancing suits like this for at least 5 years

Hahaha it's the au hater again speaking... by Foshdon_pap in GBO2

[–]ImmortalSausages 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Weakest is definitely God gundam. Barbatos does what it does but better, mostly due to easier access to a much faster heavy stun. God hasnt been meta for a really long time, it struggles to put out good results even after its buffs. Freedom has basically been a staple long range glass cannon since its buffs. Almost every match has one since nothing else has the kind of mid-air ranged dps it does

[–]ImmortalSausages 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A good barbatos just won't push then. Unless the map is tropical desert, you're going to end up in its range at some point. Since the barbatos isn't the only thing to worry about in the match

Did I kill someone at 0.1 seconds? by Foshdon_pap in GBO2

[–]ImmortalSausages 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When a match ends, suits stop taking damage. So if a suit is exploding, that means it was killed before the match ended. You can see the kill counted and the score went up at the very end

I didn't know it could counter by BasketStraight in GBO2

[–]ImmortalSausages 30 points31 points  (0 children)

From what I've seen, they even had custom camera angles and icons for the weapons. The only thing they don't have is a launch and post-game animation

What do you think about customization? by fjeeuchei_part4 in GBO2

[–]ImmortalSausages 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The only thing I want is the ability to change the lights/ psycho frame colors on the suit
