Funny you mention that, my initial loadout for the frame was double melee, but since I made that Exia video recently I wanted to do something different. Having a balance between melee and range is nice, don't you think?
Making the most out cosplay builds and similar is frustrating in pvp but sometimes the satisfaction of a good game or win makes up for it. Definitely in the camp of fashion over function, I need to give a full basho build a go
If timed correctly the charged Lazer Slicer can muscle past being kicked & you also take less damage during the attack. I love using this feature against RJs & tanks who kick too much or melee users unaware of the losing trade.
Most meta builds are named by the JP community, I think. That's why they all have these wacky names that sound like nonsense. It *almost* makes sense in japanese. Also, I really like the Basho and I tried so hard to make a build out of one. I think I settled on something with a zimm and an aperitif hand missile swap over the melee weapon, as I really started liking that combo when I tried it out on my RAD build. Took me forever to settle on a Basho loadout. I don't like the single Ransetsu, I think it's too slow and clunky and barely hits the enemy and doesn't deal stagger quickly enough and neither is good at keeping stagger up. Dual Rans, yeah sure they're good. But single, I think your build would be better off with one of the full auto rifles, or charged Harris shots for the stagger melee combo with the missiles. That said, well played and nice build!
Is that right? Even then these meta names are so bizarre. I miss the basic "dual rifles" or "missile boat" naming schemes. The single Ransetsu RF is one of the only options I found the arms can handle for ranged skirmishes (I also wanted a BAWS weapon for the theme). I tried Harris and full auto weapons, but unless I was in their face 99% of the time I was just missing my shots.
@@dsaBOSS not even the Etsujin worked? I'm pretty sure you can throw that weapon on almost any build and it just works, truly an easy gun for RLF recruits. Harris is more for picking the perfect moment to send out a charged shot. but yeah it is true that this kind of stuff is played at a very close range. The Japanese are a bit uh, theatric with their mech naming schemes, lol. Couple of the recent meta builds are called "PowerBaka" and "TokuRobo" depends on what the first ranked player using it calls the build sometimes too.
@@varyagace Maybe because I was facing kites at the time, but Etsujin was missing every other burst. Another reason why I leaned towards Ransetsu. That's interesting, back in my For Answer days a lot of the top Japanese players I faced had a more straightforward naming convention. When I hear stuff like "neo statue" or "power baka" I'm just wondering how anyone who isn't a hardcore pvp player is supposed to know what that means lol.
as a basho main. I would suggest, that you also try other more "intensive" boosters like the coral and Alula boosters. Mostly dou to the Basho core's really high booster efficiency
Gotta agree, I have a favorite build with my Baws, I use the same inners except the booster of my choice is the PO4, then I have 2 burst pistols, on my back a butta blade and then the 10 cell forward missles. Pretty good and does pretty well in the game, maybe at times switching out the missiles to the vertical big one for some bosses.
Hey man, nice video, I’m new to this series, though I never bought and played this game that I have been dying to play, anyway I enjoyed watching your content.
For real, when I was putting this together I quickly realized how tricky it was when it came to finding the right weapons. The arms in particular with their poor recoil and tracking limited my options.
When I build an AC ots usually for form first and then function. So I find the aesthetic combination I like and work from there. I haven't made a "full frame AC" using any single set of parts. But I'm an avid basho arm user
I enjoy using the Kikaku booster with the dagger because the assault boost energy drain and melee cancels are more energy efficient. Fluegal has better neutral speed but I feel like the Basho set is incomplete without Kikaku. This isn't a criticism, just an opinion.
Crazy because most cases when acs run when they’re about to get staggered I either get them and fold them or I just sit there for a bit because I’m not chasing someone over that, now terminal armor and pulse armor if your ap is low or if your using all charge weapons and you gotta recharge I get that tho
Like the Pile Bunker, Slicer can just end builds quickly. I should know, I've been on its receiving end too many times lol. Oh man, AC1 Nineball was rough. I think I ran Karasawa, having heavy hitting weapons makes a huge difference. His pulse gun melts like crazy.
hey looking to get back into ac6 pvp. Is it possible to dodge everything the opponent throws at you given you havent exausted your boost meter? And how impactful has the patches since release been? I remember just being rolled my quadruped missile spam and dual mini gun tanks back then, which was the reason I stopped playing pvp.
To answer your questions: yes, you can dodge everything given the netcode doesn't act up. The patches have made some noticeable changes, some meta builds are still around like dual Zimms though.
Not really, doing some practice rounds helps to get me warmed up. Then again, when I was grinding for S rank for the first time I did feel that way a bit but ever since it's just about enjoying the game, at least for me. The key is to not take each match so seriously and try to enjoy yourself. Hope that helps!
I don't care if Volta's probably right about it being an old hunk of junk... It's MY old hunk of junk. I generally pair mine with a XUAN-GE, double split missiles, and etsujin/pulse blade as a way of building stagger.
Basho arms are too usefull: you need melee - take it; you don't need fire arm take it too. Btw, try out full corp builds. Baws doesn't produce only aiming system.
I name my Basho ACs Ligma BAWS
Putting all those LOADER 4 named ACs to shame. 🤣
Mine is Satsui no Basho
@@Arluq-e6l SF x AC, nice!
BAWS is my favorite frame and make a good choice for double melee which is a fun playstyle!

damn, he crushed em like a BAWS
That's what separates a BASHO from a BAWSHO. 😂

Really? That's pretty awesome. I don't use the slicer often, so that's good to know. I thought only the plasma thrower can tank hits.
@dsaBOSS you can test the timing by trying to kick steel haze ortus out of his charge attack in the arena. 👍🏾

Oh yeah, when I'm entirely invested in close-range those are my go to boosters. This loadout calls for a more balanced option IMO.
It would be funny to see you trying the Jail Break AC.
Don't tempt me. I've already made some builds that turned Ranked into hard mode but Jailbreak would be impossible mode. 😅
@@dsaBOSS That's the fun! XD

I'm guessing you also run the Ocellus FCS because when I tried using any of the pistols on these arms I just couldn't hit the broadside of a barn lol.
I really wanna see a build that can rock a complete Orbiter/Shade Eye set.
A RaD enjoyer, huh? Challenge accepted.
@@dsaBOSS Godspeed, Raven.
Hey man, nice video, I’m new to this series, though I never bought and played this game that I have been dying to play, anyway I enjoyed watching your content.
Thanks for watching and enjoying my content! I'm sure you'd have a blast with AC6. I love how the AC community continues to expand.
@ thanks man and take care.
@@YahirH7 Thanks! Hope to see more comments from you. I like that my audience is a nice balance of both new and returning fans.
Love the look of basho but making a solid build on it is kinda iffy.
For real, when I was putting this together I quickly realized how tricky it was when it came to finding the right weapons. The arms in particular with their poor recoil and tracking limited my options.
Awe I was about to Drink while the lock on sound was happening
💀
@dsaBOSS I mean it would be funny
Crazy because I went on a Basho building sprees week in all modes laser plasma etc etc now this. 👍✌️
Basho FTW!

Sometimes fashion > function. If you're a Basho arm enthusiast, try the rest of the frame. I think you'll like the defense it offers.
I enjoy using the Kikaku booster with the dagger because the assault boost energy drain and melee cancels are more energy efficient. Fluegal has better neutral speed but I feel like the Basho set is incomplete without Kikaku. This isn't a criticism, just an opinion.
I think if you're entirely committed to melee/close-range then I can definitely see that being the case.
i'm curious what loadout you can come up with nacht aside from CQC or kite-oriented build
That could be cool. The Nacht frame has a lot of potential.
@@dsaBOSS best buddy is the only acceptable loadout.
@@Echo_419 So you're a Rusty purist, eh?
@@dsaBOSS I simp for Rusty as hard as I do for the Rat Catcher. 🤷♂️
Have you done a Jehuty from Zone of the Enders build yet? If not I’d be surprised considering you’re an MGS fan.
I really want to, but if I were to recreate something from ZOE it would be Anubis. 👀
I was thinking about using basho arm but I need recoil control to hit AR shot.
You really need to be up close to make any rapid fire weapon work on Basho arms.
@dsaBOSS Dang it XD. I suprise you any at all.
Crazy because most cases when acs run when they’re about to get staggered I either get them and fold them or I just sit there for a bit because I’m not chasing someone over that, now terminal armor and pulse armor if your ap is low or if your using all charge weapons and you gotta recharge I get that tho
Seriously, it's very dependent on the scenario. Most of the time retreating like that seems to end in disaster.
I'd rather prefer a pile bunker build on a Basho never expected laser slicer. Still on my AC1 playthrough, got any tips for Nineball?
Like the Pile Bunker, Slicer can just end builds quickly. I should know, I've been on its receiving end too many times lol.
Oh man, AC1 Nineball was rough. I think I ran Karasawa, having heavy hitting weapons makes a huge difference. His pulse gun melts like crazy.
Thanks for the advice, man! Hoping this'll help due to the fact that my mentality does not allow me to run...

@dsaBOSS ty for the help 🫡
So do you get some feeling of nervous when playing pvp, if you don't or not anymore, could give some advice please.

made a PVP basho build with duel Ducketts and pulse blade
I used it pre duck nerfs but maybe it's still useable
How'd you deal with Duckett's recoil on Basho arms? They don't really handle weapons with that much kick too well, even with Ocellus.
Pretty sure with Assault Boost, you only need to press the button once to activate it. Holding it is probably what's screwing you up.
You might be right. I never had the issue before and I hold it down to quickly deactivate AB when I need to. Old Rat Catcher habit lol. 😅
I don't care if Volta's probably right about it being an old hunk of junk... It's MY old hunk of junk.
I generally pair mine with a XUAN-GE, double split missiles, and etsujin/pulse blade as a way of building stagger.
Nice, I think it's safe to say the BASHO is the classic car equivalent of AC frames.
Basho is for cosplaying as RLF
Coral, abide with Rubicon!
@@dsaBOSS Coral, endure within us all!
Basho arms are too usefull: you need melee - take it; you don't need fire arm take it too.
Btw, try out full corp builds. Baws doesn't produce only aiming system.
They are the best melee arms in the game. I might try a full corp setup, couldn't really do that here since BAWS has no dedicated shoulder options.
