How to beat Sea Spider in Armored Core 6
When you face off, don’t wait for the right moment. Start using your weapons and lock AC6 Sea Spider in. As your build is heavy, you must stay close to Sea Spider, as it will deal more damage and land with better accuracy.
Use a staggering attack strategy
Fire your arms and shoulder weapons at Sea Spider. In the beginning, you will also take damage, but a while later, you will start to dominate and stagger him.
Once he is staggered, your attacks will deal more damage. Try to get near him and land your best shots, especially with the Gatling Gun in Armored Core 6, as it is best for close range.
Learn to dodge Laser Attacks
When one-third (1/3) of its health is left, the AC6 Sea Spider will start to fly. This will challenge you as now you will lose some accuracy because of the long range. However, the key component here will be your survivability.
You will have low AP and short on Repair Kits. Try to dodge his laser and missile attacks by boosting, jumping, and moving left and right.
