She's taken my comms link offline for now. That massive dose of coral nearly killed me.
Lol the new 'malenia, blade of miquella'
Yes the CORAL nearly killed you
You have to win this
The Coral nearly killed me as well.
"You need to focus so I've turned your comms off. Now I'm gonna keep telling you how much you need to focus, how important this is, over and over. But focus!"

"The waves are intensifying, Raven get clear"
Raven: I'M GOING TO HIT HIM WITH MY SWORD
more like raven: Yeah and? i'm about to shove an energy sword in his skull
In his defence, he was already right by it at the time, and you don't get much warning.
@@Embers73 the energy pulse of Balteus is just pure bullshit, you need a lightweight mech to get clear when that close with quick boosts. anything medium to heavy is too slow to clear.
@@exiteternium >assault boost
@@seinyaaa4504 not enough time to swap from hardlock and use it, the indicators are very minimal and sometimes even the Ayre spiel to get clear happens mid energy wave.
the OST of this bossfight doesn't get enough praise. this has to be one of my top 10 favorite bossfights
My fav BOSS of all time,topped things like maliketh, vergil beowulf from dmc3 or Daimon of dd, the second balteus fight is good, but is literally a whole different fight, we need inner balteus or a modded berserk balteus lol
alot of these videos don't capture the sheer difficulty that is fighting this boss, but this video does best by far
I first tryed Balteus. First armored core game for me. That being said I actually got gud in the missions before Balteus
no you didn't, no one cares if you did@@filipgasic2642
They nerfed him. Missile tracking is a cake walk. Which he is mostly Missiles.
That sounds like a subtle jab against the video creator's skills lol
@@devourerofbigmacs7858 I can see how you'd think that, but we've all been curb stomped by Balteus the first time we fought him. I'm pointing out that this person didn't just go and create a finely tuned OP build that massacres him in 5 seconds and instead captured the truly difficult fight that happens the first time you stumble in
Having played through the Souls series, Elden Ring, Bloodborne, I’ve never had a boss press me like this one did. I was crushing the game until I got here, to emphasize my love for this fight and music, I was in a really bad spot emotionally and mentally at the time. Everytime I got just a bit closer at killing this boss I felt myself coming back to life almost, when I finally toppled him I swear my neighbors must’ve though I was watching a hockey game with how loud I yelled in excitement. I always read people give Dark Souls credit for helping depression, this boss fight in a way saved my life.
this comment ❤️❤️ summarized everything I went through
But it’s the first proper “boss”
One of the great From software boss fights imo. The sublimity of that swarm of missiles is just amazing. A dance of chaos.
Dance of chaos is a good attack name😊
its so pretty to look at
I fucking hate this boss with everything and it’s almost cost me my pc. Actually retarded they lock multiplayer behind the story, game is solid fkn mid asf. 4/10 from me
This fight captures the actual essence, well done
The music really captures the essence of someone’s heart racing and the fast pace action that goes along with it
This fight really is the essence of “ohshit. ohshit. ohshit. TAKE THAT! ohshit. ohshit. HA! TAKE THAT!!! ohshit.”
This video really reminded me of how difficult this fight was the first time through. How the music pops off in the background and Ayre's dialogue. Man, you had to be there..
Nice fight and very clean finish. It was a lot more frantic for me after "the enemy can't take much more" bit. I literally hugged him and spammed everything I got, thinking loudly "GET DOWN, GET DOWN, GET DOWN, GET DOWN, GET DOWN, GET DOWN, GET DOWN, GET DOWN, GET DOWN, GET DOWN ALREADY, YOU PIECE OF ****!!!!!" at like, 300ish PP, with no repair kits left. Ahhhh... I like to think that Ayre rooting for me throughout the fight gave me the motivation I needed to keep going.
Same here except he pinned me with flame swords and killed me when he was 1/3. In my defense all I had were guns
We need a Balteus model kit, seriously!
An absolutely incredible boss imo, honestly keep replaying the mission to attempt to recapture the high. As someone who grew up with the early PS1-2 games and fell out of it a bit with the 360/PS3 games due to time and (mostly) money as a teen AC6 is my absolute Game of the Year. I lost it at the reveal and the game itself lived up to the hype for me
i dont really like those "no damage fight" some people post it. I prefer these realistic ones
If it was no damage with combos, nah
If it was no damage with skills, hell yeah
just did this with a similar build and jeez this fight was a pain in the ass
Good or bad pain is the question?
bad, i managed it but its really shit design @@doolenny9458
@@doolenny9458 With pulse blade/gun (pretty much the combo to use against the shield) and a 2nd set of hand weapons for dealing real damage, I can say, bad pain. I was in a pretty mobile setup, too.
This boss fight took me three hours because the monkey brain sold all the parts
@@spelv1104 hehehehe i just redid missions and the dragon brain said "hoard all the things!" FYI Dam mission is highest payout early on.
Nice clutch! The sword is nice on this boss
Y'know Miyazaki and the devs is cracked when they haven't made another AC since 2012 and then created one that absolutely immediate banger and knows how to do it at the same time making elden ring
You know what would be cool?
If there was counters for those missiles like flares or chaffs.
That would be awesome
Agreed!
If it was ace combat yes flares. But in a dying world of AC I'm not paying the expenses from my stories to use flares. I will dodge ur missles and unload he'll fire. I'll free up a spot for a shield before I spend my merc cash on flares.
Boost kick is a wonderful tool. That's how I'd keep knocking his shields out and stick close enough to land every last shot I had.
I love that even trophygamers has a different mech in the cutscene vs the fight 😂
4:26 The seratonin rush hit so different pre nerf.
I keep watching this fight over and over, I haven’t beat him yet (2 hours of attempts last night) but he’s just so cool
I like this video a lot. I feel it captures Balteus the best. Getting to see all of its moves. And its mobility. Few other videos capture this.
This is such a cool boss fight with the soundtrack music and person talking to the raven!
The game is All about LEARNING
Anything else is a you problem.
I learned the boss, and danced his Waltz for DAYS.
And I had the most fun out of any game I've played since Ace Combat 04. Yellow 13, anyone?
Days? dang! Im giving up tonight... gave it a good 5 tries. got to go to bed for work though.
The appearance scene gives the impression that the protagonist is not launching a surprise attack or coordinating with friendly forces, but rather appears solely to ordeal the protagonist. I felt that there was a different base (such as Dark Souls) than Armored Core.
Thanks for playing this through with a build from chapter 1.
Ive been at this boss for 12 hours straight, i have the correct build i cant dodge his attacks for the life of me cuz im a boomer and my hands dont work
Aw man i hope you get to beat it eventually theres alot of good stuff hiding just behind him
its not t=even the worst man
the later bosses are when the diff really spikes
@@Andersen-lx2tgto me personally, who've already beaten the game. This boss was the hardest bcs early game you don't have much weapon choice that do big dmg. My second one would be the Ibis boss fight. The others are hard for sure but I don't despise it as much as this sucker. I hate Balteus with passion.
Boomer hands here too. Got him stunlocked to almost 1/5 of his HP on my best try.
Use assault boost to get past the missiles and use quick boost to dodge the howitzer after you hear the alert sound. Its best to jump and QB since its an explosive round. Have the laser cannon and plasma gun on your right, and have a blade and the grenade cannon as your left hand weapons. Energy weapons for the shield, blade then switch to grenade once he's vulnerable.
Yo this is good man 👍👍
Damn that's more like mobile armor meteor unit and combine with zaku
This fight almost had me faint in my Chair when i finally made it
This game is so fucking cool man played it day one, used pile bunker and plasma weapons to beat this guy lol
Holy shit I should have used a sword you made him look like a joke
If i knew what was coming, i would use my backwards-legs-jumpy-blade build, but i was testing hevier ones... damn that was an experience.
Apologies on the late reply, may not be relevant now but figured I would chime in.
The weapon description on the Pulse Blade states "...Delivers slashing attacks with high frequency oscillation that are ideal for canceling out pulse defenses..."
Same thing with the pulse rifle. They just eat up his shield.
It do in fact be an autonomous PCA craft. That's for damn sure.
I’m coming back to this fight and struggling yet again oof, the battle to find a good build to do effective damage and learn the pattern is difficult.
Never played an Armored Core before.
Seems like ADHD: The Game, but in the best ways
I used the same Tank duel machine gun build that got me through 5 and VD. Always found machine guns to be amazing in AC barring costs…
This fight was amazing.
Nice work.
Had this fucker down to 1% 5 times before getting stun lock!!! It fucking sucks and been at this boss for 4 hours now
You get him yet?
Hope you got him by now.
After trying every tip I got for taking this one on I just went at it with two shotguns and that was the only thing that worked for me
My favorite boss fight in gaming besides abyss watchers
I dont mind spoilers. So i watched this boss fight before buying, I got delected with the appearance and mechanics of balteus, then When I bought this game, the cutscene got me all like "OH YES ITS TIME, THIS IS IT"
This boss is honest to god stone walling me.
I've tried dodging the rockets, still get hit. His giant flak gun TRACKS YOUR MOVEMENT so trying to dodge in the opposite direction always makes me get hit directly. I'm using a pulse gun for the shield which works great, but other than that I keep dying
Could not beat this boss.... Until I equipped "tank legs" and gave my Mech a bazooka in each hand 🤣
Powerplay plays in background
I'm frickin stuck with this boss 🥲 I can't seem to beat his 2nd phase, that flame slash move is a b**ch
Lost to this boss about 4 times now, though my issue is my AC is too slow dodging those missiles so i get stun locked to death constantly, and ill suited to taking down those pulse shields fast enough with duel 3 burst assault rifles.
Gonna run the fastest mech i can and pair it up with pulse gun and pulse laser. They're hard counters to this fight from what im learning, also duel energy cannons are so good against practically anything that isnt fodder though i may have to sacrifice those if i want a faster build for this fight. Might go with the hardest hitting missiles on the shop once im done grinding for cash.
Taking a mini break for now though. Just burnt out for the time being lol.
One thing that's tough for a lot of people to get used to with Armored core (and this has always been true) is adjusting your whole loadout to suit a specific boss. I was pretty stubborn myself, and used the basic rifle and saber with two of the default missiles. It's important to have a short QB recovery against Balteus, and rapid weapons can help bring down its barrier
it's tough for a lot of people because you don't assume that you need to die in order to know how to adjust your loadout accordingly.
@@Thrybald yeah, even the steam discussions are full of the " i played all the AC's and i never had to change my loadout before" yueah.. never played AC1-3 i guarantee it, 4 answer hand held alot in comparison to 1-3, anyone who played the originals knew you built to suit the mission, when you could, some missions where meant to be difficult and walled the next upgrades that would have given you an edge in the fight, as a kind of reward for mastering your AC and the customization.
@@Thrybald And you would know that after one failure, which is the time that it would matter. You try and either succeed, or fail and get the option to change
You may have beaten it by now, but I was trying to beat this boss with the Nachtreiher Mech + the jumping legs (going for full mobility). But that build didn't work out for me... Ended up using the Medlander Mech with duo 8x vertical launcher, the laser blade and a plasma rifle. That did the trick for after more failures than I can count with the Nachtreiher Mech xD
In chapter 2 I went back to the mobile mech though :D
The soundtrack seems to be something from a Gundam anime.
Took me five tries but I got his ass. I was quite a bit more liberal with my sword usage.
I'm losing my mind
Beat him with stock AC. Trick is stay in near Balteus all the time.
Anyone else here got PTSD before the nerf?
Annoyingly, I had a tougher time with the C-Spider. I felt so dumb when I beat the Spider because man it was a lot simpler than Balteus
They nerfed his missiles hard. Sad, made for an epic fight.
Beat it with starter ac kit without dying
I have this exact build right now
What is the build? What's equipped?
Bro makes it look easy 😭
I got filtered.
Whats the best weapon to take down shields? like the kind?
@@RandoLePerson Yeah I'm struggling to beat him, I get him to about a 1/4 health left and just dont have the hit points left
the Machine Gun you get from doing the tutorial missions, dual wield those, they shred the shield pretty fast, combined with a blade to do extra dmg when he's staggered, and a missile launcher and you can get him down really fast
@@DracoMilitis I beat it. I busted out the melee sword and shredded him pretty quickly my first try lol
So far this is my favorite boss
Everything about it just hit right
@@RandoLePerson what's cheap about the boss?
I don't get why people got so mad with this Boss. He is hard but not that bad
@@matheusalexandre7056 ikr? I beat him on my 3rd or fourth try. He's definitely a jump in difficulty but as long as you stay cool his only dangerous attacks are his flame based attacks. People panic on the missiles but just dashing you'll avoid 90% of them
@@pintobean6702 yeah. I mean I definitely took a while but really the problem was me getting his patterns right, not the boss itself. Pretty Fun fight. Smart cleaner was much easier by comparison
@@matheusalexandre7056 still don't know how the game went from a boss that shoots 100 missiles at you and has a shield to a giant cleaning machine to an ancient weapon from the institute
this boss is such bs 3 days an still cant get past 50% of his hp
Plasma weapons and the sword, but it's still very hard. He's too fast
Eu já estava achando praticamente impossível
Adapt or die
Build please
am i the only one that AB dodges the missiles? its just so much cooler then standard strafe dodges
This is just like Dark Souls/Elden ring where you spend 90% of the fight perfectly timing dodges.
The bosses barely have any stagger and they just relentlessly spam barrages at you, not even in the same order.
I was looking at this game but after playing through Dark souls 1, 2 and 3 already im not sure if i can stomach more of it..
after this boss it gets a bit easier especially if you have a strong build... for me anyways
The boss after him was much easier in comparison.
I was having fun with the game until I ran into this boss . I understand difficultly but we tryna have fun with video games man this fight is not fun at all .. tried 3 diff builds still can’t beat this mothaaaaa fucka .
I switched to a super lightweight dual machine gun build, with a pulse blade in reserve. Chase him around, dont let him create distance, and I beat him that way. Hope that helps. Lol theres so many harder encounters, Im stuck on an encounter that isnt really even a boss fight in chapter 3 rn.
Experiment with builds
Or get filtered.
I shall try to coach you - I was struggling yesterday too.
Build a frame with a high load and AC like Ti Qiang - Use the bubble pulse weapon on both arms to annihilate his shields and then the shoulder mounted laser cannons for burst damage during staggers. Use the boost that increases AB boost efficiency.
At start, boost through the missles directly towards Balteus, use kick if unlocked at the end of the charge. Dodge a few times as the missles hit and then unload all bubbles from close range to lower shields. Might take a couple loops before you stagger him but when you do you can get off around 3 laser shots for massive damage.
Be aggressive during his missles as they dont track well if they're converging back towards him. Just stay close to him and keep an ear out for the boop that means he's firing a missle at you directly and dodge sidewards to avoid.
When you get him to halfway he will start using flame attacks with massive AOE, and you will need to either back off or use a few dodges to avoid before moving back in to close range to waste his shield/stagger him with your bubbles.
Whenever he uses the missile attack he will be rooted in place and now is the perfect time to play aggressive and close distance. Just remember to dodge a few seconds after you close the distance and keep your ears listening for the boops for when the cluster will hit so you can string a few dodges as they do.
Hope this helps!
@@hruikan I beat him bro !!! Im on chapter 4 now !! My AC is so powerful now and thank you for typing all of that trying to help me I appreciate that
CONGRATS DUDE
Anytime@@BrooklynBornn
i cannot fucking believe they made this shit into soulslike
It is not a soulslike. Outside of a stagger, it's not even similar.
I hate the term soulslike so much! Now we have fools like this using it to say every single game ever made is “soulslike”. There where games before Dark Souls, and there will be many more after it…. Learn a new word, and maybe do some research too.
Game is still easier than the old PS2 versions
How is it a soulslike exactly?
@@Wonkess_Chonkess idk, best guess is that there's a stagger bar? If anything it's closer to sekiro, but even that's a stretch imo.
0:33
People complaining about Balteus have the weirdest copes.
Nah he was fun boss. I love his soundtrack
@@RandoLePersoncope, boy
The biggest skill issue boss in Fromsoft history
@@RandoLePerson Damn dude, it's almost like he's a boss or something?
Trash boss, I died 100 times. Unnecessarily too strong
skill issue
Did you pick up the GIT GUD boost prior to the fight?
The boss beat you 100 times but it's trash? Aight
Hey friend, have you tried changing your build? I was stuck on this one too. But I decided to change my legs to the tank ones, spam pulse cannons and as shotgun it up close. No skill was required.
@@XenosisReaper1 Nah, I disagree, Played Sekiro no charm demon bell but this boss is appropriate. It should be a chapter 3 boss not 1.
Such a lazy design for a boss, truly uncreative
Bloody rockets in me robot game !!!!!!!!!!!
Its not a skill issue if I beat the game with a light frame and pulse sword and no cheese. Unlike 95% of these people I've played AC.@@blastimbre
Could spew the same cope about your take on my opinion. You've just served to show me you are incapable of seeing past rose colored goggles.@@blastimbre
A mech with a ring of missiles and flamethrowers and carrrying primal armor around? Thats cool af i cznt conveice Balteus no being a cool design man
Like most consumers, especially in the games industry, you are expected to eat it up. It's okay, My comment is for those with the eyes and knowledge required to see past the spectacle.@@redglint6451
This game is garbage
Sounds like someones a lil upset they aren’t good enough to play
Skill issue
Sounds like you got filtered by the tutorial boss.
F I l t e r
I dont get it... in my fight I am CONSTANTLY under fire from EVERYTHING balteus has to offer....in all the videos I've found, the fight seems way more chill. Am I crazy?
no you're spot on, this mf KNOWS where to preemptively strike
wich mf u talking about? xD balteus or the dude playing? xD@@Thrybald
A big part of what I struggled with is I would get impatient and rush in to get its shields as soon as possible, but you can take your time with the shields since they don't regen like stagger does. And then when he pulls the fire sword out GET FAR AWAY UNTIL HE CHILLS
What middles are those ?
And sword
@@Jexnic504 that is the starter middle and arms. sword is likely upgraded. rifle is the plasma rifle.
@@exiteterniumsword is not upgraded
@@KrullKama why not, you get a higher damage output sword pretty early in the game, why not use it?
@@exiteternium Different swords do different things. I personally prefer the one with wider swings, but the damage is pretty similar.
We need a Balteus model kit, seriously!
