Which Armors Are Recommended for Cannon?
Any combination of Yammo/Gourdo’s armors.
- Use Yammo’s Helm if you want more damage
- Use Gourdo’s Helm+Legs if you prefer sustain healing
Yammo’s Legs is great defensive option since Cannon do have many moment where you being hit while you’re not attacking, pair it with Yammo’s Chest for full tank potential. Full Gourdo’s Set in multiplayer is really good too, free healing for everyone simply by just staying alive. Ribbat’s Chest is.. an interesting alternative healing choice in solo play, but make sure you don’t take too much unnecessary hits so you don’t bankrupt.
Please note that equipping those armors will most likely put you into heavyweight class, shorten your dodge’s (shotgun) distance by a lot. While balance/agile class use long distance shotgun to quickly move out of combat and reload, heavyweight class however, feel more comfortable in melee range. Due to long invincible frame heavyweight class have, it is much safer to fire shotgun while stay in melee range for Battering Ram (Melee attack that reload 1 ammo on hit).
Though you only reload 1 ammo from melee hit, but that’s enough to keep you out of danger, thanks to fast animation you can spam Ram+Shotgun at your heart’s content. And don’t be afraid of making a mistake, it won’t be a major injury, again, thanks to how tanky you’ve become.
Also it is much more easier to farm your hit-streak with shotgun and battering ram in melee range, to gain benefits from “Hit-Streak related” powers (which, most of them are good!)
