Running out of ammo during major boss fights, cant continue
I wanna play online, but i can't pass the sea spider. Almost killed it twice but ran out of ammo and had to resort to punching, regret buying this game, it's too stressful i wanted a fun mech game. It's more stress than fun.

You have to be a whole lot harder than that to stick around here.

If you want an easier mech game, I suggest Metal Wolf Chaos, I can actually some of the influences of that game in here (the bosses).

Ignore the people who don't want you to play their special snowflake game.

Are you using primarily chip-based damaging weapons? They're extremely bad against bosses now for exactly this reason. Stagger is king now.

*Something else to consider is that the legs are heavily armoured, If you're circle-strafing, it's likely half your shots are hitting the legs and doing no damage.

It sure is.

That being said, i facetanked spider with standard tank build - gatlings+songbirds. Be sure to always stay close to it.

I don’t know what weapons you are using. He is pretty easy to stagger with heavy weapon like grenade launcher . You can flight high to avoid most of his attacks. Avoid light weapon as you will run out of ammo with those . Shotgun does a lot of damage. Also check your OS chips , pretty cheap to reset and add damage for the type of weapon you are using ( and the one for when he is staggered)

You can't run out of laser sword and charge kick.

...I guess if you're shooting from far enough away?

Like, it's alright to back up when the spider does the laser cannon thing but you kinda want to hover over it and just unload, particularly when it does the charge.

land or ricochet?
Cause every weapon has "optimal range" and if you're using gatling gun then you probably stay too far and it ricochet, when it does it does 0 damage

if you're running out of ammo you're wasting it somehow. make sure you're using your impact weapons to stagger the spider then using your dps weapons to take advantage. don't just blindly fire at him.

when you see the missiles go up from his back, count to 3 and on 3 dodge, regardless of whatever else you're doing. they will miss you. when you see him charge up his BIG laser, immediately Assault Boost to him. That's the easiest way to dodge the blast.

If you're not using Tetrapod legs, make sure you're up in the air as much as possible to avoid his AOE on the floor. I would suggest the quad legs, though. Makes the 2nd phase easier.

Simple answer: You're using the wrong weapons.

if people are trying to offer advice and you're not wanting to hear it, it's not us "toxic elitists" that are the problem, honestly.
