Please make Automaton Queen focus your target

[Doozer]

Normally it's not an issue because having it hit anything helps, but in fights like 724P-operated Superior Flight Unit in The Puppets' Bunker where each alliance can only fight their own flight unit, I often find my Queen just rocketing off towards a different alliance's unit. And because it's an extension of me, it can't deal damage to them.

It happens at least 2/3 of the time, and it makes using Automaton Queen during that fight feel like a total waste of resources.

…OR they could turn AQ into a mech suit, and give the player baddass actions befitting their own personal Gundam. XD

AQ is a glorified dot that has many problems and you mentionned one of them.
I'm still baffled how SQEX could approve AQ and Esteem, on top of Bahamut weird AI.
They should prioritize fun before look, because AQ can be frustrating.

A simple fix would be to, as you suggest, make the AQ target what you are targeting.

Can't wait for the gundam mode where your character gets locked into a 5 second animation to spam 1 for 10 seconds.

I'm quite fine with hitting a button to summon it and continuing to play normally. Considering it's an upgrade to the turret I don't see any reason to over-complicate it. I think MCH is fine as it is except with the issue I brought up with this topic.

Actually, AQ has more issues than that. It’s lengthy summoning time, the complete lack of targeting control, and it’s lack of AoE make it an underwhelming tool. I get it - you like that’s it’s “fix-it-and-forget-it,” but for my part, it needs more than just a targeting tweak.





Or just give me my gundam suit.

here hoping for gundman suit too , queen is boring

or make the queen more interesting , make it spawn faster too , maybe come from the sky "startdiver" style doing some dmg on the target

Queen, like MCH as a whole, is just some glint and glamour fooling the player into thinking they did somthing cool but they just pressed A. No thought ,no interaction, no fun.

MCH in general suffers from this. It’s pretty but it’s incredibly dense perhaps the simplest and densest job in the game and next to RDM and DNC? That’s saying alot

Honestly. Everything in this game is just that. it is a game with no inherent meaning after all.

The summon duration for AQ (and Esteem) are to account for the lengthy animations they have when being summoned. I believe they both take 5 seconds to fully summon, so their effective actual summon duration is 15 seconds, rather than 20.
