Special Analysis: Zaku II Kai [LV4] (COST 400 GENERAL)
Transitioning from a Jack-of-all-trades to a "Strategic Dilemma" through timed awakening and frontline sustainment.
Current Limitation: Insufficient Firepower Density
At the 400 cost bracket, the Zaku II Kai LV4 suffers from a critical lack of sub-weapons, leading to vulnerable downtime during main weapon reloads. Its average melee performance results in a negative damage trade against modern high-spec units.
Proposed Role: Frontline Strategic Anchor
By upgrading sub-weapon cycles and integrating the "Indomitable Spirit" ability, this unit becomes a high-priority target that punishes enemies for both attacking and ignoring it.
- MMP-80 Grenade Launcher: Converted to a sub-weapon with a 10s reload, providing consistent Instant Stagger capability.
- Hand Grenade Z: Build-up Stagger increased to 40% per hit to enhance suppression against high-mobility targets.
- Frontline Support LV2: Reduces ally redeployment time by 10%, maximizing team presence as long as the unit remains active.
Conclusion
The Zaku II Kai LV4 evolves into a "Timed Ace" that forces a dilemma: ignore the scaling threat or exhaust resources attempting to eliminate a target bolstered by Damage Control and Emergency Evasion LV3.
