Armored Core 6 allows you to build whatever kind of mech your heart desires. Maybe you want to be light and fast, or sometimes it’s better to be a bulky, slow tank to soak up damage from a boss. Either way, you’re encouraged to experiment and try out new builds. Melee weapons make for a great up close and personal playstyle, so here are all of the melee weapons in AC6.

Incorporating melee attacks into your mech can seem daunting. Oftentimes, you’ll want to stay far away from bosses or other Armored Cores for fear of getting caught up in a devastating attack. Learning the wind-up and trajectory of your melee attacks is key to dishing out massive damage to your foes. Melee Attacks can build up the stagger meter incredibly fast or even deal a ton of damage to an already staggered enemy.

Using Weapon Bay to allow yourself a melee weapon on your shoulder instead of the traditional shoulder weapons is a great way to mix up your combos. Jump in with dual shotguns and switch to your melee weapons once you’re close. We’ve found this an effective measure against most bosses in the game.

Well, that’s everything you need to know about all of the melee weapons in Armored Core 6.
