The Smart Cleaner in Armored Core 6 hits hard and can overwhelm you within a short period of time if you are not prepared for him
Armored Core 6: Defeat Smart Cleaner
When you encounter the Smart Cleaner in Armored Core 6, you won’t have to worry about complex attack patterns. The opponent is much more direct and deals out powerful damage.
- The EC-0804 Smart Cleaner is slower than other bosses and moves exclusively on the ground. For this reason, it helps if you are often in the air or build up enough distance to the heavy hunk.
- One of its most dangerous attacks is a ram (Charged Assault), through which the Smart Cleaner will quickly close in on you. To do this, simply dodge at the right moment, which requires some practice.
- Equally dangerous are his Giant Swings when you are standing close to him. These can knock you out instantly. Ideally, stay in the air or move away quickly during this time.
- Also, you should establish distance from the Smart Cleaner when it uses its Molten Eruption attack. With this one, the boss flings molten rock around, which can quickly become dangerous to you.
- While you can theoretically avoid the attacks quite easily, it is more difficult to damage the bolide. It is only vulnerable at the front opening and at the back of the chimney. Be prepared for a long fight.
Armored Core 6: Effective builds for the Smart Cleaner fight
Armored Core 6 provides you with enough options to adapt your build to the fight against Smart Cleaners.
- Mobility is especially important when fighting the giant robot. For this reason, a Tetrapod build is a good choice, as these are among the best builds in the air.
- Combined with explosive weapons like the 44-141 JVLN ALPHA, you can do a good job on the Smart Cleaner without much danger. Together with rocket launchers like the BML-G1 P03VTC-08, you can also attack from the ground.
- Equally effective is a reverse joint build. With this, you can get in the air quickly, dodge easily, and attack from above.
