I would assume it has a set damage threshold, once it's exceeded, you gotta wait before bringing it back online.

Look at it in star trek terms.
Deflector Shields only can take a set level of damage before they fail.
The baltheon shield is likely the same.
Correct.  Baltheon shields take 500~600 damage before faltering.

I figured as much.
Which would indicate that either those were some hella strong missiles, or he'd already been pushed to the limit, or reasonably close to it.

Considering the shield doesn't have tgh, it drops a lot faster than you'd think.  My Thoarla can break one in 1.6 seconds flat with a single custom shotgun.

After using Baltheon, I never realized how many AIRss used slayer bits. Frau legs have become even more annoying.

Not much reason to use anything else, aside from propeller bits.  Dual laser bits are good, but unreliable and don't last as long.   Plus, Slayers let you take arts on head-to-head.

I think Baltheon is most useful when there's a lot of Arts on the enemy side.

I thought Airs could already take ARTs head-to-head, and that it was a major complaint among ART users. I certainly have no problem doing it with dual beam bits(my preferred bit,) though idk how good the ARTs were. The main problem when facing ARTs as an air is that they're in packs, and I don't see how a slayer would help with that.

Also, is there a reason they took dual blaster bits out of the shop? I don't remember too many complaints about them. I liked to use them in my Berz runs.

I wouldn't say head to head, you still need a lot of altitude to be able to pull it off comfortably, even then, them fat arts tend to have a lot of HP so it's by no means easy to chew through all that HP before you start getting shot at from every direction (unless it's an Art that's caught out of position of course). The advantage Air has over Arts is simply the ability to circle strafe the bastard without worrying about retaliation from that unit, nothing more, nothing less, there's really nothing an art can do to air circle strafe aside from taking cover. Even with that, an Air unit will still have to find a safe spot to land to regen its boost, and since you are likely behind enemy line for taking on an Art, to comfortably regen your boost is also quite the task. This is why Seraph is one of the most headache-inducing Air unit around, with the aid of their wings, they are able to stay in air for a long period of time without needing to worry about being hit by missiles thanks to the wing's anti-homing feature.

Now with Slayer Bit, you won't need to abuse altitude as much as usual, as your Slayer bit will guarantee to hitstun the Art, making it even more difficult for them to retaliate whilst dealing impressive damage.

And odd, I don't ever recall seeing Dual-Blaster bits in shop :V

I think videos of this theme were posted some time ago back in the beta thread. Might as well repost one very notable one: Communication Breaker Dancer

Quality-wise it's not far off from the japanese vids I've seen drifting around.
Needs audio, but that's to be expected when you weren't going specifically for that eh?

Crim AM2 is starting to grow on me.

Also, I don't recommend fighting 3* frac with a laz using a rifle and buckler.  It doesn't work very well.

May I ask who tried that and why? Also, do you find Jupitizer useful during the first part? I would also like to find out what damage it does to a ps.

Me, because the room leader started the quest for lulz when I was showing Vyo something with Laz BS in the ground area :c

For the first part, imo, Jupitizer < Blasters < Stardust Cannons < Stardust Missiles < Jupitizer Io

Really? I would think that Jupitizer would love it. I guess if nothing else it conserves ammo. Also, Stardust Missiles?(Assuming Io is fraiza)

Nope.  Allegedly you've got a better chance of it dropping on higher difficulties, but I've gotten one on each difficulty, and the one I got from 1* was the only slotted one I got.

Lily Rain(Black Hair) >:|
and Zero Fighter(what is he? Zero Sabers unsuccessful brother or something, his stats don't seem great to me)

Other things I got were Pink Seraph Promotion and the Doom Slayer. It's like a Metal Slayer but bigger, it also lunges pretty far in an attack.

Also, what's the difference between Lily and Majalis? Their internal weapons are pretty much the same except that Majalis' Psyslicer is weaker while every other stat on that weapon remains the same. I'm guessing she can shoot more blades.

First Patty, now this, you lucky fuck. *drop kicks, follows up with a german suplex then a DDT*

Majalis's slicers can be launched whenever without your movement being interrupted, it comes at it cost of less damage and no bouncing feature (which isn't always a bad thing).

1-2 hours before I can get home and get my triple froglanders from the cubes, can't wait.
