Boreas Mecha Review By Pat Willis#224534

Available to pilots with a minimum heavy skill of 50 the Boreas is available to own for 17,400 Ferrite, 14,200 Bioptics, and a whopping 150 Niodes. It is a 95 tonner with starting armor points of 250, 10 weapons, min lvl of 82, levels/weapon of 3, and made by Alpha Corp.

I own 2 as stands now and I find them to be impressive war machines. Both of mine sit at level 102 and have the following abilities before equipment...

Tons: 95
Level: 102
Armor: 1276
Class: Boreas
Bonuses before
equipment:
Ice Damage + 90%
Speed - 24
Speed + 24
Precision (51)
3X Damage 18%
Slow (20)
Trample Shield 50%
Splash Shield 25%
Laser Shield 40%
Wide Fork 4%

With equipment however it becomes a whole different story and many of those stat values go way up. Some of the main standouts for me on this model are Ice damage +90%, Precision (51) which get rather high with equipment installed, 3X damage at 18%, and all the built in shielding it comes with.

These are monsters on the battlefield, equip them right and not much aside from a crit-kill can take them down. I am biased admittedly as I love ice based mecha, and boy oh boy does this fit the bill.  Oddly enough though for an ice based machine I had to give it equipment before it started to Freeze anything. It does slow just fine, but freeze takes some tweaking, and dialing in to achieve. I highly recommend this mecha for any tried and true ice enthusiast. It won't let you down.
