A key facet of Armored Core VI is incomes money to unlock new weapons and mech components. Once you full a mission you may replay it as a lot as you need for further pay, and gamers have now discovered one of many quickest cash farms in your entire recreation: brutally murdering a rookie take a look at pilot in beneath a minute, dozens of occasions in a row.
The mission known as “Destroy the Tester AC” and it’s precisely what it says on the tin. You load into Southern Belius within the Contaminated City, find an enemy Armored Core close by, and waste him as shortly as potential. The job nets you 95,000 credit minus no matter you waste on ammunition, it’s tremendous simple, and solely takes 30 seconds to a minute relying in your construct.
That makes it an ideal quick money farm (“Wallclimber” can be nice, however not as senseless). However, in contrast to most missions in Armored Core VI that see you going toe-to-toe with big helicopters, troublesome bosses, or large amenities stuffed with enemy cannons, the tester AC mission solely has one enemy, and it’s a pupil pilot who’s by no means been within the shit earlier than. “I’ll cope with the merc!” he says like a real anime pink shirt. “I’ve been coaching for this!”
Not effectively sufficient, sadly. He talks to you all through the battle as you mercilessly beat his ass. “The Redguns want this AC…I…I can’t fail this mission!” he stammers. He even thinks he’s successful at one level. “My coaching is paying off,” he says after touchdown successful, solely to scream just a few seconds later, “Damn it! I can’t die like this!”
Players have now killed him hundreds of thousands of occasions simply to allow them to afford a ton of additional weapons they’ll in all probability virtually by no means use as a result of double Zimmermans and Songbirds are utterly OP. It’s absurd, hilarious, and tragic in a approach that feels virtually like FromSoftware deliberate it this fashion. The Armored Core group is already stuffed with ideas pointing new gamers to the straightforward payday and memes celebrating the Dafeng Student Pilot’s ongoing ritual sacrifice, his final phrases seared into their brains.
“I…I simply…I simply needed a callsign of my very own…” he manages, earlier than his AC explodes. Fans have determined he deserves to get one. The present frontrunner is “Yamcha”.
