GBO2 Stark Jegan (Post-Buff): Best ballistic damage at 600 cost!

This video contains two matches I had with the recently buffed LV2 Stark Jegan on Gundam Battle Operation 2. It is a 550-600 cost general with amazing ballistic damage, great stagger accumulation, two instant staggers, good melee combos alongside having good durability. It suffers from having below average walking speed and no Maneuver Armor, but it is pretty well rounded apart from that. This suit was recently buffed with 1500 more HP, 1 more close range slot, 1 more mid range slot, 2 more long range slots, higher level back and shoulder buffers, 200x16 power for the LV2 shrapnel bazooka, 2400 power for the LV2 beam saber, 0.5 seconds swap time for the beam saber, 1900 power for the LV2 beam rifle, 300m range for the beam rifle, 5 seconds cooldown for the beam rifle, 15 seconds reload time for the beam rifle, 0.77 seconds swap time for the beam rifle, 900x3 power for the LV2 shoulder missiles, 12 seconds reload time for the shoulder missiles, 900 power for the LV2 arm grenade launcher and 35% stagger value for the arm grenade launcher. This suit used to be the king of 550 cost generals, but it has fallen off a lot over the years because of intense powercreep. Thanks to these buffs, it feels really great to play again. I hope that you enjoy watching!

Its primary weapon is a bazooka with 2625 power, 4 ammo, 7 seconds cooldown, 14 seconds reload, 1.75 seconds swap time, 300m range and 80% stagger value. This has a pretty tiny splash radius compared to other bazookas, but benefits from being able to deal immediate high ballistic damage.
Its primary melee weapon is a beam saber with 2400 power, 2.5 seconds cooldown, 0.5 seconds swap time and 140% downswing modifier. This has fast swap time and a thrusting downswing with good reach. It can deal decent damage on its own, but you can fire a bazooka shot or three shoulder missiles between downswings to deal great damage, especially to raids.
Its first sub weapon is a head vulcan with 94 power, 60 ammo, 450 RPM, 10 seconds reload, 0.5 seconds swap time, 180m range, 705 DPS and 4% stagger value. This takes over 3 seconds to stagger with on its own and doesn't deal that much damage, making it not that useful outside of chasing down low HP enemies with.
Its second sub weapon is a beam rifle with 1900 power, 4 ammo, 5 seconds cooldown, 15 seconds reload, 0.77 seconds swap time, 300m range and 30% stagger value. This has short cooldown time alongside dealing decent damage, making it a reliable backup weapon or as a tool to continue a stun chain with.
Its third sub weapon is a shoulder missile launcher with 900x3 power, 6 ammo, 1 second cooldown time, 12 seconds reload, 0.77 seconds swap time, 350m range and 35%x3 stagger value. These can stagger most suits in one volley, but they also benefit from dealing really high damage, having reticle guidance and having a large splash damage radius.
Its fourth sub weapon is an arm grenade launcher with 900 power, 2 ammo, 8 seconds reload, 0.5 seconds swap time, 250m range and 35% stagger value. These cannot stun on their own, but they can be used in combination with other weapons to break through Maneuver Armor. They are also a pretty good DPS tool to add on to the end of combos with.


The LV2 Stark Jegan has 21000 HP, 27 ballistic resist and 22 beam/melee resist. For a general of its size it has pretty good durability, especially once you consider that it has a 30% damage reduction buffer for the shoulder missile launchers and the backpack. It has LV1 Emergency Evasion as a defensive skill, but no Maneuver Armor, which makes it vulnerable to stunlocks.
In terms of mobility it has 125 walk speed, 215 boost speed, 75 thrust and 66 turning speed. It has below average walking speed, but otherwise it is pretty mobile. It has both LV2 Forced Injectors and Flight Control for mobility related skills.
It also benefits from having LV1 EX Boost. This is activated via the touchpad and grants infinite thrust,

In conclusion, I think that the Stark Jegan is much better after these buffs. It isn't going to be winning a straight up 1v1 against Perfect Gundam, Geara Doga Psycommu Test Type or Engage Zero Yongwhavin, but it could be a great supporting general for the team. It can absolutely nuke enemies with ballistic damage if given the chance, and is an especially strong escort unit for your the support on your team, it will instantly burst down raids if given the chance. The scaling on the LV2 version is so good that I think it has a decent claim to being a little bit stronger than the LV1 version, I would love to see what the scaling would look like on a LV3 or LV4 version. Thanks for watching, and I hope that you enjoyed it!
