Conceptual Design #053 [RGM-79CA]

🔰 PILOT'S BRIEFING: QUICK GUIDE

A close-quarters monster that trades stealth for unstoppable breakthrough power. It uses specialized recoil-stabilization to fire through enemy stagger, forcing its way into a lethal melee combo.

Tactical Tip: Time your Shotgun burst to "absorb" enemy stuns. Use the 140% Downswing modifier of your Beam Saber as the final nail in the coffin.

UNSTOPPABLE VIOLENCE

"Don't dodge the barrage—devour it, then dismantle them."

[✦] TECHNICAL ANALYSIS: IMPACT PENETRATION [BURST SPEC]
Active only during Shotgun 3-Burst animations. This logic nullifies stagger reactions from all sources except Tackle and Downswings. In exchange, stagger accumulation is fixed: Heavy Stagger = 90%, Standard Stagger = 80%, Flinch = 50%. It allows the pilot to force a trade, ensuring the Shotgun's high-stagger pellets hit their mark even under fire.
[+] SPECIAL ABILITY: SHIELD PURGE BOOST
Triggers upon shield destruction. Negates initial stagger and grants "Limiter Release" for 30 seconds. Increases mobility (+10 Speed), attack/defense (+20%), and halves weapon cycle times. A true desperation mode that turns a defensive loss into an offensive slaughter.

2026 TACTICAL OVERVIEW

In the 2026 meta, "Instant Stagger" is the primary defense against Raids. The GM Raid bypasses this by timing its Impact Penetration shots to absorb the enemy's opening fire. Once the enemy is staggered by the Shotgun, transition into Heat Daggers (Heavy Stun) to guarantee a kill with the high-output Beam Saber. Even if the enemy breaks your shield, the Purge Boost ensures you have the last laugh.

EDITOR'S POSTSCRIPT

The RGM-79CA was never about fancy smoke screens. It's a blue-collar worker of death. This 2026 revision emphasizes the "Assault Spec" philosophy—being a bullet-sponge that hits back twice as hard. It's a high-octane machine for pilots who believe the best defense is a point-blank burst to the cockpit.
