Small Notes on GM's MM and CM III (10th Sept 2017)

[Fourth]

it`s my second day as a GearMaster today and CM3 is really cool, usually for cleaning left out mobs. but i`m still getting used to it.
I noticed that with this, i`m forgetting mecha bomb in the rotation cuz i put the airshot in the quickslot where it used to be lol
But I absolutely like CM3... it`s MM cannon instant for me..

Have you tried soloing volcano nest normal? my first try cost me 11 lives, another unfriendly nest for GM.

It is terrible TBH. I tried solo-ing too. With my gears, doing the first two boss took more than 10 minutes due to constant movement, tower and duck wipes. I barely even have any time to use the CM III properly.

However, in BTG testing, the CM III use is actually splendid and smooth. Perhaps GM will do better in others but VN is not a friendly place.

[atom100]

not optimistic about that the upcoming guardian nest is another unfriendly nest for GM, back in 70 cap it was the reason why mechanic mode was created.

[Xenocho]

Sigh, I know. I enjoy GM a lot but this really makes frustration overwhelm any sort of fun using it.

[Hanakarasu]

Honestly, I'm looking forward to vn and guardian nest.
I actually enjoyed them both as a gm.

Ya chasing around pkn like boss , can't use summon against Gemstalker because it will trigger mechanics,summon wiped every hp bar from Lavanok are fun

Rushing to the next empty pool to recall towers but they died to the new lava pool, all ducks dying to a stomp, why is the croc chasing the tower/duck/me randomly, and best of all: did they just summon wipe again?

not yet. but based on your inputs, it seems like it`s going to be a challenge for us gearmasters to rule the dungeon.
but i think the guardian nest shd be fun for GM since tower recall is here. (i hope so)
Nevertheless, i enjoy playing a gearmaster. that's like choosing a game difficulty and selecting the hardest one.

Tower recall will be useless because of summon wipe , weakness of GM and to some extent weakness of SS too.

that's being a Gear Master. HAAHA~
we have nothing to do with the mechanics, just have to embrace `em <3

That's the fun of GM, you have to be tactical with your playstyle. Take a gamble as to whether summon towers or wait in case of summon wipe.

Heck, it's actually easier now than it was say 80 cap where we had neither CM II or awakening to help with tower management.

Besides, since I use reload + demolition, I always make a habit of re-summoning towers to get the reload combo so I don't have to have reload in my skill bar (ex. summon gatling tower ---> right click to reload).

[Fourth]

I am a Demolition GM too but i have reload in my skill bar.
summon tower + reload means that you cannot buff the towers with the Mechanic Mode..
hhmm

[Xenocho]

I would not recommend using Reload after summoning any tower. Now that tower lasts so long, using MM on it pushes damage in a longer run. Now that CM III is present, you will actually use it a lot and you can reload during that time.

[Hanakarasu]

Well in areas where summon wipes are constant, not much point in buffing the other towers (exception chainsaw tower), may as well use reload after summoning one of the 3 engineer towers, usually gatling.

am i the only GM here that dont use mechanic mode i still prefer the old gameplay of GMs the no hassle of switching on and off in MM

Towers now can lasts for 90s, so you can stay in MM longer, so switching MM on and off every 90s is not that hassle. if you prefer the old gameplay better not to awakened your GM , at least it's possible to put 2 CST on the field.

omg yaa i just realize that you think two chainsaw tower on the field is still good dps?? thanks omg

[Xenocho]

No, because the GM can deal decent DPS by herself now. Preoccupying yourself with double CST (which the 2nd one only lasts 50% of the time), you will be unable to make use of all the GM's own skills such as Mecha Bomber, double Big Mecha Bomber, Mecha Duck, Mecha Cannon and lastly the CM III.
