The E-type is a standard howitzer that can attack multiple enemies by explosion.

Type A fires a penetrating bullet.

The SP type is a howitzer, but it has a stronger reaction than the E type and lower attack performance. Instead, the speed of the bullet is fast.

Melt Buster is a special type that fires acid.

It has practical performance if it is a proper difficulty level, but there is only one type.

The 4.1 model requires DLC and has only low levels, but fires multiple timed grenades at once.

Although the range is short, the attack performance is high, and the early stages may be useful.

Equipment: Ranger

Boarding (Driver & Gunner): All classes

It is a vehicle equipped with Railgun that excels in single-shot power.

The movement performance is low and the continuous firing power is low.

After shooting, use your own weapon until you get out of the vehicle and you can re-shoot, and you can compensate for the low firing power and turn it into a merit.

It is also effective to shoot two cars alternately.

Titan

Equipment: Air Raider

Boarding (Driver & Gunner): All classes

A large tank for up to three people.

The movement ability is very low, but it has an overwhelming destructive cannon.

Requiem Cannon may be underpowered for previous players. Instead, the bullets are faster and easier to hit moving targets.

The Machine Gun is not a turret, but is fixed at the front of the vehicle, so it can not move at all, so it can not attack up or down, and must also turn the vehicle from side to side.

Instead, the destructive power is excellent.

Gunner has different weapons depending on the model.

There are two weapons to watch out for, and you need the help of Driver to handle it effectively.

Grenade Launcher launches grenades on the side of the vehicle.

Explodes near the vehicle, so having other allies nearby can have disastrous consequences.

Missile Launcher is a missile that locks on and attacks targets in front of the vehicle.

Since the lockable targets are determined by the orientation of the vehicle, the Driver needs to turn to lock on more targets.

EMC

Boarding: All classes

It is a powerful vehicle equipped with the Atomic Ray Cannon.

Destructive power is high, range and bullet size are also large. Movement performance is also standard, but the movement of the turret is slow.

The attack does not stop until 1000 shots are fired. However, this is also an advantage that the attack continues even if you get off the vehicle.

For example, you can have EMC attack the Teleport Anchor while you can attack other enemies with your weapon.

Light Truck

Boarding (Driver): Ranger, Air Raider

Boarding (Passenger): All classes

The AP type is Smooth-Bore Gun, which has penetration and does not blow away enemies.

The R type is the Light Rapid-Fire Gun, which emphasizes the continuous fire power more than the Smooth-Bore Gun.

In common, weapons are poor. If you use it for an attack, you should use your weapon. Nine shots of the LV16 vehicle are the same as one shot of the LV12 Limpet Sniper D.

Caliban Support Vehicle

Equipment: Air Raider

Boarding (Driver & Passenger): All classes

It is a vehicle equipped with a treatment device.

Equipment: Ranger (LV11 only)、Air Raider (All)

At low levels the mobility is low and unwieldy.

Another drawback is that LV38 to LV67 do not exist.

EF31 Nereid

Equipment: Ranger

Boarding: Ranger,Air Raider

It is a helicopter for air-to-ground attack.

Both slow speed, you need to aim on their own, but the power is big.

Equipment: Ranger

Boarding (Driver): Ranger,Air Raider

Boarding (Gunner): All classes

It is a helicopter equipped with a powerful cannon. The movement is slow but the behavior is straightforward.

It outperforms most of Ranger’s medium to long range weapons.

Heavy Flame Gun only is difficult to use and range is too short.

But basically it is a gag.

If you roll over, the passenger will fly but damage will only be received by the vehicle.
