Once you reach Mission 9: Prisoner Rescue in AC6, your main objective will be to free the members of the Rubicon Liberation Front. As such, you’ll assist your ally RLF Helicopter in this rescue mission while ensuring it doesn’t take too much damage.

  1. Upon starting the mission, use your boosters to sprint northeast from the landing pad towards the antenna towers past the trees.

If you couldn’t secure both Battle Logs from this mission, you can always head to the Replay Mission tab in the Sortie menu for a re-attempt. Here, you’ll also see a Battle Log section underneath the Mission Info, showing Complete if you collected all Logs or Pending if any are left.

How To Kill G2 Nile

G2 Nile is the acting Deputy of the Redguns squad, so he’ll primarily stay on the ground and engage in close-range combat. While he isn’t a threat alone, the surrounding MT squads can hit you with several attacks, lowering your AP and increasing your chances of ACS Overload. You must also defend the RLF Helicopter, ensuring its HP doesn’t go to 0, or you’ll lose the mission.

To tackle this fight, use the following procedure to secure victory quickly:

  • Use a tank-like build for optimal grounded mobility and higher AP and Attitude Stability, significantly raising your ACS.
  • Take out the weaker MT mechs first so they don’t interrupt your attacks or harm the Helicopter.
  • Equip yourself with close-range weapons like bazookas and shotguns, and stay close to G2 Nile while attacking him.
  • Always remain aggressive and attack his ACS meter to make him vulnerable, giving you much longer windows to deal damage.
  • G2 will regularly enforce Pulse Shields to save himself from oncoming attacks temporarily, so wait for the shield to diminish and reload your weapons.
  • Once Nile’s down, another four minor MT mechs will jump down, which you quickly take out with an AoE weapon like the aforementioned bazookas and shotguns.
