Everything you should know
>>Beat the first mission's boss
(Don't give up, just get back up).

>>Unlock the Garage which is where the real game begins
(This is where the fun begins)

>>Have Fun
(The best design is the one you enjoy playing. It's a game; remember, Raven?)

>>Put your love and care into your emblem
(It's important because you made it)

>>Build the AC you want
(You're the one who will be piloting it)

>>Go for an evolution, not a revolution.
(Slowly adjust your AC to adapt to how you play and what you're fighting, this is how you beat Balteus if you're struggling. Don't beat your head endlessly against the wall; that'll only break your spirit.)

>>Don't chase Meta and endlessly following guides
(They aren't an authority on the subject, just someone on the internet who's found something that works for them)

>>Tweak and adjust your AC to fit your vision
(Think of the kind of gameplay you enjoy and tailor your AC towards that)

>>Have Fun
(I put it here a second time because I knew you would forget)


From a survivor of Last Raven; I know that you will soar high!~

Beta - Beats head up against wall repeatedly, trying (weakly) to convince themselves they are the alpha (like that's ever gonna happen), and acquiring brain damage instead because that wall is bricks.

Chad - I should try this weird looking weapon on the big spider!

It is true, guy below me. Don't get mad over having skill issues. Beta/Alpha stuff is nonsense btw

"Don't beat your head against the wall" is the weakest most beta-male thing I've read in a while, and I was on reddit just a little bit ago.

Best Guide i've read so far!
Did Beat AC (1) kinda like it and love to see this state of mind still exists. :ac6_wave:

took 21 build changes mid mission but I managed to beat the great filter (of act 1, furnace mean) through sheer stubbornness and adaptability. If I can do it as a fledgling raven, so can you! just gotta roll with the punches and evolve the design of your AC to your playstyle, and you'll fly high

There's an early mission in Last Raven where you basically are on two huge bridges with a big gap between them and that genuinely took me time to get past because I was like, fifteen? And had no idea what I was doing, so it was my first major hurdle on learning how to build an AC. Filtered by the level design...

But also Zinaida can get fucked >_>

Zinaida was the real filter.

"from a survivor of Last Raven"
that was my first AC game so I know this pain deeply

if you re strugling with something like ibis series(or any extremely fast enemy/boss) just pick double or quadruple shotguns(shoulder laser shotguns are good enough to demolish ng+2 final boss and easily clear annoying pests around him for example), and every time you can't hit something in general consider shotguns or drones which are less reliable though(rockets don't hit ibis series like about never)
