GBO2 Gouf Custom: "That's right! Cower! Be afraid!"

- This video contains two recent matches I had with the LV2 Gouf Custom on Gundam Battle Operation 2. It is a 350-550 cost raid with very powerful melee, a heat rod which can heavy stagger enemies, LV2 Power Accelerator to boost away from melee clashes, solid mobility and decent mid-range DPS. Its weaknesses would be slow stun accumulation, lack of instant stuns, the need to rely on raw melee to initiate, lacking a dodge roll and it firing both ranged weapons from the left arm. This suit was buffed about a month ago with extra melee modifier, +5 thrust, +3 turning speed, Shield Break Mastery, LV2 Power Accelerator along with increased combo and downswing modifiers. I meant to do a video on this suit closer to when the buffs came out but it has unfortunately been delayed until now. Despite the obvious weaknesses, I think that this suit can go on a real rampage in melee. I hope that you enjoy watching!
Its primary ranged weapon at LV2 is a shield mounted gatling gun with 126 power, 82 ammo, 450 RPM, 10 seconds reload, 1 second swap time, 250m range, 945 DPS and 5% stagger value. This has the weaknesses of taking just under 3 seconds to stagger along with firing from the left arm, but it has decent range and pretty nice DPS. It lacks the bullet spread of other low cost machine guns so it isn't the worst option to use to deal some damage to supports from mid-range. But of course this is situational since the support can just easily stagger you in return.
Its primary melee weapon is a heat sword with 2310 power, 2.5 seconds cooldown, 0.5 seconds swap time, 80%/64% combo modifier and 140% downswing modifier. This has fast swap time along with incredible power, even generals will be chunked pretty hard if you can close in on them. The neutral swing can sometimes miss knocked over enemies but it has good reach and good speed in return.
Its first sub weapon is a heat rod with 1680 power, 6 seconds cooldown, 0.5 seconds swap time and 100m range. This melee weapon shoots out a wire in front of you which heavy staggers any MS caught by it, letting you easily combo them afterwards. It is difficult to hit this without any set-up, but a neutral swing from your heat sword is a simple way to confirm it.
Its second sub weapon is a hand gatling gun with 110 power, 30 ammo, 360 RPM, 6 seconds reload, 0.77 seconds swap time, 180m range, 660 DPS and 8% stagger value. This has mediocre DPS and short range but it can stagger enemies faster than the shield gatling gun, stunning in just 2.16 seconds. This still isn't that quick so try to use it on enemies who aren't paying attention to you.
The LV2 Gouf Custom has 14500 HP, 21 ballistic resist, 16 beam resist and 20 melee resist. This is pretty decent durability but nothing crazy either. The monster generals of 350-400 cost will have no trouble nuking you if you are out of position. It has no dodge roll, but has LV2 Maneuver Armor starting from 350 cost.
It also has 135 (138 including ground affinity) walking speed, 195 boosting speed, 70 thrust and 60 (66 including ground affinity) walking speed. The boosting speed isn't as fast as some other 350 raids but it has good walking and turning speed. It lacks Forced Injectors as well, which is a skill that many 350 cost raids get.
It also benefits from having access to LV2 Power Accelerator. This allows you to boost out of both types of melee clash animation while the enemy is still stuck in place, allowing you to make a quick get away or to attack them with your melee. This is somewhat situational but it prevents you from being open to the enemy team stunlocking you if you clash by mistake with somebody. You can also aim to clash with other raids on purpose since you can get a guaranteed combo on them afterwards.
Overall I feel like while these buffs did a whole lot for Gouf Custom, I still don't think I can call it a strong suit. The previous issue it had was that it did mediocre melee damage despite it being very difficult to reliably use its melee, but only one side of this issue is fixed. It is still pretty difficult to reliably use the melee when your stun accumulation is too slow and in a cost where generals have good enough stun accumulation to stop you from getting close. So I think it would have been better if this buff also improved the stagger accumulation of both gatling guns. Despite this I think it is a very fun suit if you are adept with using heat rod style weapons and melee focused raids. I definitely can't recommend it if you are looking for a consistent and reliable raid for rated matches but I don't think its a weak suit either. It does excel in the match-up against the dangerous transforming tanks Hildolfr and Assault Guntank though, which is something to consider since many raids struggle with that. Thanks for watching, and I hope that you enjoyed it!

I would legit do a blood sacrifice just to make this suit good. How do they disrespect it so much its one of the most famous and beloved U.C suits and was the star of probably the best ground mobile suit battle ever animated and they just let it rot like this. Youd think in a slow placed Gundam Game the Gouf Custom would be king but they did it so damn dirty. No clue how this thing has no dodge roll when it dodges so much in the show it was featured in.
Honestly I think the players just spamming gatling and doing nothing else don't help. It has other weapons and some people refuse to use them
It's actually pretty viable, you just need to play it properly.
Fun as this suit can be, it's definitely still frustrating to play without a coordinated team, or at least a competent one. Do wish they'd bump up the build stun on the hand vulcan to a 1.5s-ish stun at least, make the old man useful for something other than just beating up other raids.
To be fair this is just applicable to any suit, I've had games where I've been running a great suit and build and going off but my team are all running around and trying to do the hollywood bad guy tactic of running into the enemy one at a time.
review is lore accurate: It's for ace pilots

Violets are blue
THIS GATLING GUN SHREDS
AND CHEWS THROUGH YOU.
My second favourite gouf besides the gouf flight unit TB great video:)
Hey avenger! As always lovd gour content. Best gbo2 player ive seen. Was hoping you could made a little educational video on MS skills and what ones to look out for/best on what type of suit or playstyle players like. PC player are still fresh and tbh i feel skills are looked past at a lot.
I will consider it. Thank you.
Oh no. Frequency of Gouf Customs in matches to increase now 😅
Well done as always, though!
Not enough thumbs to up properly. Massive style points at 2:55.
A Quote from Norris Packard today
It's an odd coincidence, isn't it?
this is my main MS i all have level 1 to level 5 versions of this.. all ranged setups. my playstyle for this ms is mid range.. gatling here gatling there.. heheheh
Gouf Custom got NOTHING on Gouf Experimental Flight Type. But very cool video. I struggle using this mobile suit myself lol
yuge fan of the budokai 1 music!
I used a Gouf Custom and it was fun gatting enemy legs when allies are around, got some support kill score cause I'm crap at melee units. Should I buy controller for this game because the keyboard on steam feels janky for some reason?
It depends, you can get used to the keyboard and be pretty good with it, usually adjust the binds to make UT easier.
But if you don't want to go through the learning process, or you are really struggling to get it down, the native controller controls are much easier and simpler to use.
Controller seems to be the superior choice for GBO2. I would recommend it if you can find a reliable controller online.
@@sumtenwitty6021 Thanks, as of now I'm still using the keyboard. It is a bit hard to master but the kills I get gives me satisfaction.
@@avenger1_gbo260 I'm becoming a little bit comfortable using the keyboard but I'm in the process of finding a suitable controller, should the need to switch arise.
I've bullied so many gouf custom's now as support that I've given up on this suit being even remotely good which sucks cus i LOVE the gouf custom.
As a long term Gouf Custom main who has recently returned after a few months gone... the suit is significantly better now. Turns out it received a few buffs. The biggest noticeable improvement is the melee attack modifiers are much better. You'll feel it almost immediately, I certainly did.
You mean you've clubbed a bunch of seals, right?
I annihilate supports as this suit, so we both have different experiences.
I might be wrong about this, being a new PC player, but I feel like the gatling provides such mediocre firepower that you're better off using a more ranged focused raid MS, or ditching ranged entirely and sticking to the base Gouf or Agguguy.
Current console patch Gouf Custom is more so a melee suit. The gatling is there as an option but it definitely isn't your first choice. On the current PC patch it is doing much less melee damage and lacks LV2 Power Accelerator.
Last time I played rated I played Zudah F, and I kept sniping that new Gouf out the air so much that he started targeting me and losing lmao heavy stagger sniper ftw
I used to always think this was a throw pick any time it was on my team. Then I played it and realized they just sucked in general
Without competent team the gun gouf had is useless,vulcan stagger faster than it.
