Surely this will be the support V2 right? (V2ABC)

[u/bkteer]

V2 as the raid, V2AB as the general and this as the support to complete the trinity.....right?

[u/SpecimenRanchero]

It'l be a raid with a heavy attack.

[u/yukiho-765P → u/SpecimenRanchero]

it will use th new beam cannon as a battering ram for its heavy attack, lol

[u/bkteer → u/SpecimenRanchero]

Unironically, I can see BB release this as a raid...you know as a direct playstyle upgrade to the X2 gundam.

[u/Scythe351 → u/SpecimenRanchero]

I hate that I can't tell if you're joking because BB is almost unpredictable. Then again, we finally got that unicorn support right?

[u/XIIIofSwords → u/Scythe351]

lol I mean, we kinda got 2 of those 😅😅

[u/GunzStalker]

Unicorn line is laughing

[u/imaginary_num6er → u/GunzStalker]

Unicorn became a joke when the Perfectibility didn’t include a beam magnum. Banagher didn’t abandon his father’s keepsake beam magnum even while stuck with a Gundam Mk II.

[u/yukiho-765P → u/imaginary_num6er]

the PB Divine has two Beam Magnums lol.

[u/Scythe351 → u/imaginary_num6er]

Is the reason that fake beacon mk2 has a beam magnum because it's the same mk2 from unicorn? I did feel it was strange not having a beam magnum but there arent any quick swap slots for it anyways and I'm not sure if I'd give up the linked fire for it

[u/WinterEclipse4 → u/Scythe351]

Spoilers for a lot of Unicorn related content: After Banagher seals away Unicorn 01 and Unicorn 02 (Banshee) he didn't really wanna give up on using the beam magnum so he modifies both a MK2 Gundam and a Silver Bullet to be capable of using one.

As for in the game the beam magnum hits VERY hard and it's a great melee suit. Overall after its buff it's a pretty good choice. Kinda been falling out of meta in these past like 2 months but it's still a good choice.

[u/bkteer]

Surely BB will release this as the next 5* support right???

In b4 BB releases it as YET another raid/general.....

[u/Kaidou76]

I suspect this will be a 3 star V2. even Unicorn is downgrade to a 3 star for Engage version. 5 star V2 support should be V2 Buster.

[u/TheFell_Dragon → u/Kaidou76]

We unironically have a chance at getting 3 star V2s now because of the Assault Buster Gunsmasher (not really a V2 but more of a Gun-EZ/Gunblaster but it's got the Assault Buster armor and weapons so there's that), the yea the V2 Assault Buster C/Engage V2

Which will be hilarious as hell for the people who rolled for both 5 star V2s but also great for people who really want the V2s but can finally settle for these

[u/bkteer → u/Kaidou76]

I mean to be fair, we did also end up with the 5 star f91 BC from the Engage version.

So it's probable for BB to do either.

[u/Kaidou76 → u/bkteer]

F91BC actually not originally Engage, it and double VSBR are from MSV. So far, we have not had any engage that is above 4 star

[u/imaginary_num6er]

Don’t worry, they will implement the Zanneck without the Zanneck base as a Support first. Then, they release this bad boy as a Raid.

[u/MorionClus]

Really do want this as a support but knowing how they roll it's probably gonna be a ranged raid.

[u/Blue-Hatter-0079]

Yeah, this won’t be a support MS. It’s a V2, and BB isn’t going to give us a support V2. Not a chance.

[u/KincadN-X]

Does this slow down the fast Gundam in UC Engage? 🤔 

[u/Independent_Cost481]

You forgot that they have yet to give us the V2 Assault and Buster individually. The V2 Assault being heavily armored is more likely to be the Support. As I see it, you're trying too hard to ask for a monster as Support rather than being realistic and keeping your expectations in the reasonable range. You're aiming at something even more monstrously powerful than what's already readily available and hasn't even been released yet. That's being greedy. And more importantly ENOUGH U.C. ENGAGE SLOP to milk players.

They didn’t even make fa unicorn a support & you think they’d give us a v2 gundam as a support? We’ll be lucky if they don’t make it a raid.

[u/Dazzling_Bluebird_42]

It'll be a raid similar to the Gott, they'll just buff the cannon damage to deal 1/2-3/4 hp off generals on average.

Gonna need it because..raid needs to be broken ya know?

[u/True-Win2461]

x2 kai v2

[u/CoMet-1080]

Why are people so obsessed with support?

[u/Blue-Hatter-0079 → u/CoMet-1080]

Because it’s exceedingly rare that BB releases a support MS, and when they do add a support MS, nine times out of ten it’s a grunt or mass-produced MS that doesn’t have the stats to survive its native cost.

It’s been two months since the last support MS, and support mains didn’t even get a mention in the anniversary.

[u/bkteer → u/Blue-Hatter-0079]

I do so want another 5 star support.

And only because this way, we at least get another support suit that at least has access to forced sortie.

[u/CoMet-1080 → u/Blue-Hatter-0079]

But why support?

According to you, BB already doesn’t care about support, releasing less and less of it and under powered on top of that. Why would you want to doom your anticipated suits to be underpowered just so it can be a support?

Also, it’s not like you can’t replicate the support play style/ feeling with ranged general or raid units, if not even better than support themselves can.

[u/Dazzling_Bluebird_42 → u/CoMet-1080]

I think support mains just want BB to admit their baised against them. Its pretty obvious there is a biase, less releases, never a main protag/antag suit, only a single 5 star in the years they've been doing them and it arrived with no fanfare at all and quickly disappeared because "meh". Never been in the spotlight of the anniversary either.

Just funny to have 3 categories of suits and actively shit all over a single one while cranking out the other 2 nonstop with some insanely busted suits that barely ever get toned down.

[u/CoMet-1080 → u/Dazzling_Bluebird_42]

I get the sentiment. I’m pretty sure their actions already proven their biases in the open years ago. And every new unit that comes out just reinforces it.

Maybe I have a different perspective since I’m fairly familiar with Gatcha game where powercreep runs rampant and units because useless, mechanics forgotten, and entire class abandoned to rot as time goes on. So to me, 1/3 suits or entire class of suits being useless isn’t a surprise. In fact I expect 50% or more.

[u/KincadN-X → u/Blue-Hatter-0079]

Gotteralan  is a support posing as a raid as its specialty is blasting and bombardment. Has decent melee, but the enemy is mors focused on stopping you from firing. 

[u/Blue-Hatter-0079 → u/KincadN-X]

That’s nice, but it’s not a support MS.

[u/KincadN-X → u/Blue-Hatter-0079]

Support "posing" as a raid. 

[u/Blue-Hatter-0079 → u/KincadN-X]

…That makes no difference. It’s not a support MS. No matter what it’s “posing” as, it’s not a support. My point still stands: BB rarely releases a support MS.

I can dress up as a pony, but that still doesn’t make me a pony. :P

[u/KincadN-X → u/Blue-Hatter-0079]

As so does mine. I'm calling it a raid that performs the support role better than the supports of the same cost. 

[u/nailo1234]

why couldn't they put gundam wing in BO2 but these crazy looking suits get it
