Too much of a GRIND! Not Fun!

[SP2244]

I like the basic concept of the game, but even the boss at end of first campaign seems impossible to kill (and on my 4th run). Please don't tell me all the obvious , update your armor, due the side missions, use high ground, etc. etc. Yes the game is not hard as far as strategy .... very basic. However, bottom line I just can't do enough damage to hurt the Boss in timely manner with all the other units on field. Best attack was actually jumping toward it and jumping back.... but he shreds my Armor and Health so fast even with all my extra Armor. The game is just toooo Grindy! I know eventually will get through, but tired of playing each level over and over again .... just not fun anymore!! Need to improve this mechanic or give more difficulty levels.

Draqan plus line of sight... Basically the boss is so large with its hitbox that you can block the line of sight with its turrets and still attack it. It also helps a ton to put the pilot with the Mechano-arm self repairing ability in that mech.

first boss is the hardest bizarrely (i lost two times), 3rd and forth are the easiest (got them in the first try).

I think this might be an issue of the meta progression being extremely powerful in this game. Your first run is highly limited in options, mecha, and passive upgrades. Once certain mechs get certain pilots and key stats like repair, the game starts to ease up on difficulty now that you have the possibility of pitting broken against intentionally OP.

I beat the first boss on my 2nd time of asking. Usually I dont have that good luck ^^
Though I did lose a mech right at the last second.

A lot depends on choices of enhancements and the other strategy and tactic elements.
