AC The Bully | Avis Ignea[]

The Bully is a middleweight two-legged AC equipped with an energy based anti missile extension, a middle missile launcher that fires four missiles at once, a plasma rifle, a laser blade and an overboost core. The unit is capable of ignoring weight restrictions.

In Japanese, SAMSARA's AC is known as 'Avis Ignea' (アウィス・イグネア).

Strategy[]

This guy has a good amount of AP and powerful weapons but he doesn't have a lot of ammo. That means that if you avoid the attacks, he won't be too hard to kill as he only has his laser blade. His Plasma Rifle does deal a lot of damage but only has 12 shots. The best strategy is to stay moblie and pound him when you get a clean shot.
