The Vvc-70VPM and other missile launchers you should check out in Armored Core 6

1) Vvc-70VPM Plasma Missile Launcher

Plasma Missile Launchers in Armored Core 6 do not have the same kind of impact as other types of missile launchers in the game. However, what they lack in raw power, they make up for with a wider blast radius.

The Vvc-70PM can be equipped to either one of the back unit slots. It is capable of locking onto multiple targets at once. Additionally, due to its projectiles being dropped vertically, enemies have a hard time dodging it.

The Vvc-70VPM Plasma Missile Launcher can be purchased for 96,000 COAM from the Parts Shop. It is a decent weapon to use against Balteus.

2) WR-0999 Delivery Boy

The WR-0999 Delivery Boy can launch a cluster of missiles that covers a wide area with several explosions. This weapon only holds 20 rounds, which prevents it from being a go-to pick, especially during longer missions. However, it is a great option against opponents that are clustered together and even against enemy bosses and in PvP.

The WR-0999 Delivery Boy can be purchased from the shop for 298,000 COAM after Mission 14: Ocean Crossing in New Game ++.

3) BML-G1/P07VTC-12 Vertical Missile Launcher

The BML-G1/P07VTC-12 is another weapon that can be equipped onto a back unit. It can fire 12 missiles at the same time, all of which can effectively negate cover.

The BML-G1/P07VTC-12's properties make it great in PvP, as a barrage of 12 vertical missiles will be very difficult to evade, even for the most talented players.

4) 44-141 JVLN Alpha Detonating Bazooka

Comment by u/DillyDoobie from discussion any advice on dealing with helianthos machines in armoredcore

The 44-141 JVLN is a handheld weapon instead of the standard back-mounted missile launchers. The Detonating Bazooka does a solid amount of damage upon impact. It also has a decent reload time, so follow-up shots can come quickly and can be strung together with combos.

This weapon becomes available once you reach Level 2 in the Hunter Class. There is no need to purchase it, and it should carry you through most of the early game before needing an upgrade.

5) BML-G1/P03VTC-08

This vertical missile launcher is great for taking out smaller targets in large groups, especially early in Armored Core 6 (Image via FromSoftware)

The BML-G1 is a great weapon to have early in Armored Core 6, especially against groups of smaller enemies that need to be dealt with very quickly. This weapon has decent firepower against basic targets, but it does not pack as much of a punch against enemy bosses.

This missile launcher becomes available after Mission 6: Attack the Dam Complex, and it can be purchased for 112,000 COAM. It is definitely worth investing in, so feel free to farm some funds in Mission 6 until you get enough credits to get it.
