...this exact same video could've been made showcasing the Kiku in ACfA, and look how useful the Kiku is in regular battle. I have a feeling this would actually be incredibly hard to execute, especially if the opponent is either firing or moving.
Looks like Heavies have greater melee capability than they did in previous games. If a knee like that can kill a tank in one it, just imagine what devastation it would cause to other cores.
From's gonna have to beef up the armor on tanks or nerf those legs, otherwise being a tank is just guaranteed to get you dead.
@ManintheArmor Perhapes not. That heavy bi-ped was decked out with a beefed generator and boosters and it was carrying no weapons at all. And to boot its core head and arms seem to be middle or lightweight parts, its built around the melee ability but most ACs wont be set up in such a fashion that'd it'd always be a problem
@Mirage5892 It wasn't decked out or set up in any special way at all. I just had no weapons equipped. Any HW leg can just plain kick a tank for like 25,000 AP damage. They don't need to OB or anything. Just connect a solid kick and the tank will lose 50% AP or more.
You're right to say that it's not a big deal to worry about. When you try to OB kick someone you are easy to stunlock or knock out of the sky. The only reason I land that kick is because the tank doesn't shoot me first.
Looks like we've found the first thing that From Software will drastically nerf to the point of being virtually useless. There's now way they're going to let something that can one-hit-kill a fucking Tank AC with such ease stay like that.
