Are The Boss Fights In Armored Core 6 Difficult?

Let’s just be straight up; the fights are incredibly difficult but not impossible to beat. They’re going to take a lot of memorization and a lot of skill to bypass, but you’ll get there eventually. The AH12 HC Helicopter is jarring because it’s almost instantly that you run into this, but by the time you get to the AA P07 Balteus, it will feel like a walk in the park to revisit.

A lot of FromSoftware games will employ something called a “Skill-Check Boss.”, It’s something to check the skill level of the player and ensure that they’re trying to learn instead of just grinding through the game with ease. Plenty of us here are still stuck on Balteus, as it’s a giant jump-in challenge compared to the previous fights you have partaken in.

You’ll need to keep trying, experimenting with your Armored Core, and trying different weapon combinations that may help you shred through these fantastically designed bosses.

So, to sum things up, yes, the bosses in Armored Core 6 are tough, but not impossible. You’ll need to keep learning, utilize the tutorials, and take part in the training missions given to you, and you’ll be ready to bring the fight to anyone and anything you encounter.
