[Castellan taunts the lead scientist despite being sent to negotiate which results in a battle taking place inside a factory between you and several defenders. You are being primarily targeted for being seen as the larger threat and while occupied, receive no help despite there being a chance of you getting overrun. Instead, the black and gold

[That would be because he was still going at full speeds when he dropped down. Since he did it at the exact moment that they fired they would still be shooting at the spot he was formerly at when he was still being propelled forwards with both forward velocity and his jump packs. Being in a full charge helps in situations like that. The orbits would hit empty cement there instead of anything else on the TSF.

What Takeru was surprised at though was that suddenly the shield of the larger opponent suddenly had no force behind it, at all. Despite him being at said full charge. Even if the laser blade was able to cut away a part of the shield it still would have hit the AC with the full weight of the TSF behind it. Considering it to just be some sort of strange occurrence Takeru just continued to go through his motions.

Even during his attack the moment that the laser rifle lock went on him he raised up the right knee of the machine. Slamming it into the sniper rifle first to get the weapon away from his cockpit, then using it to block the full brunt of the rockets the napalm melting through several large sections of the machine mainly in the lower section. The right leg completely blown off as well. It is thanks to this that he was barely able to avoid the sniper rifle hitting his cockpit, the rounds blowing through the shoulder instead. Thankfully the anti beam coating was able to absorb most of the shots from the laser rifle, and laser sword waves only leaving scorches on the surface of the machine. Since the beams from the orbits were sweeping most just burned off the sections of the anti-beam coating before moving on and taking out other sections coating.

Takeru was going all in here, with his sword was nearly through the cockpit. If his opponent wasn't going to move neither would he. The mount pylon holding his Assault Cannon flips over the shoulder both barrels pointing at the AC before firing both 35mm and 120mm rounds at the Onslaught. At the same time he put the rest of his strength into the two melee weapons inside of the AC trying to finish the job.]

[Takeru's action of pulling down the hand guard earlier to move his hand out of the way also meant the shield was moved into the slash directly, igniting all of its explosives in a chain reaction. Force or no, it was split into scrap metal and the parts flew past the Onslaught instead of at it as it would had originally half impacted right into the AC should it be remained in place because then the explosives would not have triggered until it was too late.

Castellan also felt the same as Takeru when his original 10 orbits suicide runs with their 20/40 shots being solids seems to have vanished along with his 2 larger energy remote weapons also seeming to have vanished. Noting however that energy weapons seem to do little to nothing to the enemy, he just figured that the larger remote weapons performed the same way as their smaller predecessors despite housing one of the highest energy based damages available out of the entire assortment of armored core weapons, ineffective. He was sure he launched 5 solid shooting orbits and 5 energy based ones because he noted the missing ammo in his tab.

Also unlike other Ravens, Castellan does not use locks for anything besides missiles which cannot fire without a lock.

Very much like how his energy weapons only did cosmetic damage, so did his melee sword. It was like exactly what it looked like. Hitting a block of metal with a sword. It created a large dent into the side of the Onslaught as the enemy pilot continued to force it towards the cockpit of the Onslaught. Only at this point after losing its force and its shoulder having taken the high explosive armor piercing shot through it, it was more like trying to push the AC aside rather than slicing through it.]

[The assault cannons were an anticipated move since Castellan had a hobby looking through data files of others to see what else existed and acknowledging the technologies if others. He also noticed one fatal flaw almost all TSFs had. The lack of energy weapons which was the direct weakness of his current setup.

Another 10 orbits were launched from the back at the same time Like before, 5 were energy and 5 were solid based. The energy based ones were on a suicide course right for the enemy assault cannon barrels. 4 were taken down. Two of which in mid flight and two at point blank range of the barrel. The last headed right for the face to block the camera while in attempt to suicide into the head. Two of the solid orbits followed up shots behind the energy based ones that went for the barrels and out of the point blank explosion of the energy based orbits, two explosive rounds flew at the cannon barrels. One of the two solid shots went right into the cannon barrel of the 120mm because it was that much bigger. The last solid orbit moved and would fire its explosive round at the head based on the enemy evasion path because Takeru was no enhanced human and wouldn't be able to foresee possibly moving into a shot while having his view obstructed. The two core launched energy based remote weapons started to overload and went for a homing intercept course for the head from above one after the other.

The napalm launchers continued to open fire. The left and right hands were moved for an alignment ignited their laser blades before the over booster kicked in along with the ram booster extensions. The entire left arm was ripped off because this helped the knife force through the joint. It was because the AC was shorter than the TSF that the damage dealt by the initial napalm shots were taken advantage of. The ignition of both laser blades were slightly upwards targeted at where the armor was already damaged and fire was burning because it ensured the energy coating would not resist them this time. The left side was of course disabled after being turned on because of the boost but the right side continued on.]

3/3

[It was already clear how fast the enemy TSF was after having constantly abused its speeds. It was also to the Raven's knowledge that the enemy pilot could cancel was taken into consideration to make both methods useless by setting them on the level with the over boost. Castellan had now lost his AC's left arm, left arm mounted moonlight laser blade and karasawa mk 2 but was of little concern considering it did the damage of a pea shooter against a brick wall.

The right arm mounted moonlight laser blade would only turn its stationary ignition into a slash as a reaction to how the enemy could possibly react by moving its cockpit out of the way. The bio sensor was utilized to pinpoint the exact human signature in the enemy unit.]
