Legs

An essential part of an Armored Core, Legs are responsible for supporting an AC.

Overview

The legs support the AC on the ground and determine how it moves, and are usually the part by which an AC is classified. There are several different kinds of legs, all of which have the above mentioned weigh classes:

• Bipedal — classic bipedal humanoid-style. Comes in many different weights, speeds and strengths. Before Armored Core 4, humanoid ACs were limited in that they must kneel down to use many of the back-unit weapons (except for missiles and rockets as well as certain cannons and pod weapons). This takes time and also leaves them unable to move while firing.
• Reverse Joint — also bipedal, these legs resemble those of a bird. Reverse-jointed ACs tend to have a lower carrying capacity; they can also jump higher. However, they have the same problem with back weapons as standard bipeds. They are not as well-armored as bipeds, have less cooling, and lower defensive stability. However, reverse-jointed legs drain less energy from the generator than other leg types, and have the best boost effectiveness while airborne.
• Four Leg — quadrupedal, similar to a spider. Four-legged were fast up until Armored Core 3 when the animation for leg movement was implemented for these parts. Prior to this change, quadrupeds moved by gliding on the ground much like hover legs. Unlike bipedal cores, (until Armored Core 4 granted the ability to all ACs) they have the ability to fire back weapons while moving, although not while airborne. However most quads, as they are known in fan circles, cannot support heavy weights, are less well-armored than bipeds, and use high amounts of energy.
• Tank — slow and heavy, but very well armored and can support massive loads. Tank ACs can fire any weapon even if moving or airborne. As these kind of legs don't have any joints, they cannot jump, instead using built-in boosters to thrust upward. A disadvantage of this is that if the generator has been emptied and is recharging, the AC cannot leave the ground, unlike legged ACs which can jump.
• Hover — these are legs that are more akin to tank legs than anything else, hovers are noted for their high speed and low load specs compared. They're akin to tank legs because they have integrated boosters but unlike tank legs they have the cannon restriction of biped and reverse joint legs.
