How come more mechs don't use acid based weapons? It's not like blocking those would work, they melt through everything.
>>22941735Because that's what bad guys do.
>>22941735The necro macro in deadman wonderland used acid as its weapon.
>>22941735What if they get redirected towards you, as that happened with the Rust Hurricane a few times
>>22941735Status effects don't work on bosses
I think they did in Mazinger Angels, although it looks like they're shooting breast milk there.They never gave any of the Chogokin toys that gimmick either, shame.

>Fujoshi girl has rotting powersI think she only used it in like one fight thoughAlso >EVOL
>>22941735Spewing acid willy nilly has a much greater long-term effect on the place you're supposedly trying to protect than explosions. Then there's the considerations of when, not if, it gets into the groundwater, etc.
>>22941735not every acid is gonna melt through everything, or melt through it fast enough to be useful
>>22941735Pain in the ass for animators.
>>22942267Kek
>>22941735Other than being animation hell, fire and acid needs to stick and burn long enough to be effective.
>>22941735Grendizer had the melt shower ability from its dizer
>>22941735acids and poisons are for cowards
>>22941735How do you store the acid in the mech?
>>22942267Sukunda deez nuts, funny skeleton man.
>>22941735The Rust Hurricane basically already is this if that counts. In general it's dangerous to the user since it has to be used at short range unless you put it in some kind of projectile anyway, but it's also not guaranteed to work, e.g. the Rust Hurricane doesn't always work just because the mechanical beasts may need to take a beating to begin with just to be vulnerable to it at all. Short range and unreliability are a dangerous combo.
>>22941735It's not very interesting in a fight to animate. Rather than a cool, flashy explosion or a laser team going straight through, you have to animate the mecha getting eaten apart in various places with just a sizzle for a sound effect. It's an anti-climactic way to end a fight and comes off as a cheap way to win.
