Eric1738 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 replace AP with fire mod. aim legs and arms dual zoren is not for charged attack use gram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GratuitousLurking Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Aim for the small leg! ...No, not that one. The Ancients take bonus damage when shot in the lower legs, instead of the head like you expect (unless armor piercing weapons, at which case aim for da head or w/e.)

arune Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 You have modded Dual Zoren for charge attacks, but its base charge damage is very low (Base Charge Damage 55.0). This does not sound very effective. You would kill them much faster with a good charge attack melee weapon, like Dual Heat Swords. That said, Strun should kill them quite ok with those mods, though of course supercharge would be better. And Hek even better. Or a rifle like Boltor. On the pistol side, Akbolto would be a good option. Bolt weapons have native armor piercing, and ancients have high armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenseiSeraph Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) The only advice I can give is to learn the timing of their attacks and use Shift to roll dodge. Edited April 22, 2013 by Seraphim_ZA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicoDemon Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 You should be able to kill them very easy with that amount of AP if you shoot their head. Remember that weapons aren't as strong as B4U7 so you have to "kite" a bit if you are in a small room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyThanksgivingPilgrim Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) thanks for the info. i've been dumping armor penetration into their torsos. i'll change to fire mods and aim for their legs. Aim for the small leg! ...No, not that one. lol Edited April 22, 2013 by PwnyXpress69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
