What the fuck am I doing wrong...

What the fuck am I doing wrong? Everyone says this game is the easiest shit ever but I can't get past chapter fucking 17 in either story. Why does it take 4 fucking units to kill one grunt unit after chapter 10? Why does fucking Masaki in his fancy super robot get killed in 3 hits? Why give me all these scrub units who aren't worth leveling? Why should I bother telling anyone to attack anything at all when the AI ALWAYS gets a free 100% counter?
Seriously what the fuck am I doing wrong?

Abuse spirit you retard

Abuse skills more, there is a bunch of 100% dodge, heal, always crit and such.

The game only punishes players when aproaching the end of it.

Yeah I get that but why does fucking everything have 8k HP when I can barely break 5k damage with a maxed R95 machine gun? Why do I constantly feel like I'm wasting spirits on fodder and then Tempest just fucks me sideways?
I need recommended minimum stats and shit, also who should I give the repair kit to? Healing in this game seems garbage

OG1 is kinda harder than the other SJW because you have grunts mostly instead of main character mechs.

Still, you want to focus on team attack or support attack and use spirit (hotblood, focus).

Also, spend money on upgrading your weapons.

are you a fucking brainlet?
I beat this game on an emulator when it originally came out
I never ever felt any kind of trouble like you are having with this game
what the FUCK is up with your low IQ generation?

OBTAIN SP REGENERATE AND ATTACKER YOU FUCKING BRAINLET

Dunno m8. Standard super robo tactics work here. Upgrade armour for your super robots (and Alteisen), upgrade evasion for your dodgy cunts.
>Why does fucking Masaki in his fancy super robot get killed in 3 hits?
Cybuster is one of those funny hybrid types. It doesn't have tuff e nuff armour nor is it dodgy enough to focus on a single upgrade path. If you want it to be viable you have to spend a lot on it. It's kind of shitty in Original Generation. Real let down as it used to be strong in the old games.
>when the AI ALWAYS gets a free 100% counter?
You're not upgrading evasion on your dodgy cunts and using evasion up parts, obviously. Otherwise it'd be miss, miss, miss like Morrowind at level 1. And if it's a super robot with armour upgrades and parts, who cares? 10 damage forever. Drink milk.

if you guys give the 'tard advice, he might as well not play the game anymore, it's more like he's just a robot going through the motions of following an instruction manual

Have hybrids ever really been good in SRW before? I always remember them being either super fucking OP gamebreaking, or absolutely useless. Well, besides Alteisen, though Kyosuke is a great pilot which helps things too.
