A key facet of Armored Core VI is incomes money to unlock new weapons and mech components. When you full a mission you’ll be able to replay it as a lot as you need for further pay, and gamers have now discovered one of many quickest cash farms in the whole recreation: brutally murdering a rookie check pilot in below a minute, dozens of occasions in a row.
The mission is known as “Destroy the Tester AC” and it’s precisely what it says on the tin. You load into Southern Belius within the Contaminated Metropolis, find an enemy Armored Core close by, and waste him as shortly as attainable. The job nets you 95,000 credit minus no matter you waste on ammunition, it’s tremendous simple, and solely takes 30 seconds to a minute relying in your construct.

That makes it an ideal quick money farm (“Wallclimber” can be nice, however not as senseless). Nevertheless, in contrast to most missions in Armored Core VI that see you going toe-to-toe with large helicopters, tough bosses, or large services stuffed with enemy cannons, the tester AC mission solely has one enemy, and it’s a scholar pilot who’s by no means been within the shit earlier than. “I’ll take care of the merc!” he says like a real anime purple shirt. “I’ve been coaching for this!”
Not nicely sufficient, sadly. He talks to you all through the struggle as you mercilessly beat his ass. “The Redguns want this AC…I…I can’t fail this mission!” he stammers. He even thinks he’s profitable at one level. “My coaching is paying off,” he says after touchdown successful, solely to scream just a few seconds later, “Rattling it! I can’t die like this!”
Gamers have now killed him tens of millions of occasions simply to allow them to afford a ton of additional weapons they’ll in all probability virtually by no means use as a result of double Zimmermans and Songbirds are fully OP. It’s absurd, hilarious, and tragic in a method that feels virtually like FromSoftware deliberate it this manner. The Armored Core neighborhood is already stuffed with ideas pointing new gamers to the straightforward payday and memes celebrating the Dafeng Scholar Pilot’s ongoing ritual sacrifice, his final phrases seared into their brains.
“I…I simply…I simply wished a callsign of my very own…” he manages, earlier than his AC explodes. Followers have determined he deserves to get one. The present frontrunner is “Yamcha”.
