Chapter 1

The following are Chapter 1 missions from Armored Core 6: Mission List.

Illegal Entry

This first mission is fairly simple and introduces the basic mechanics, such as controls, movements, and attacking. It also guides you on the use of EN. The first object will be finding the catapult, where you must encounter several enemies.

After using the catapult, there will be a cut scene, after which you will land in a new area. The second objective is to find a Mercenary license. You must also use Assault Boost to explore the area. Once you find the license, the third and last objective is destroying the SG SENTRY Chopper to complete the mission.

You are rewarded with 170,000 COAM.

Destroy Artillery Installations

This mission requires you to destroy Artilleries installed as the primary objective. To achieve this, you must destroy the weaker enemies in your way. The artilleries are marked red on your HUD, which takes damage when attacked from behind. Melee attacking them kills the turret more effectively.

Destroying a turret awards 2,000 COAM, whereas Light MTs awards 1,200. Your mission is completed when all the objective artillery is destroyed. The base reward is 100,000 COAM.

Grid 135 Cleanup

This is another short mission that will require you to destroy a squad of Dafeng MT. Some squad members have shields, so fighting with movement is the key to completing this mission. The reward for completion is 68,000 COAM.

Destroy The Transport Helicopters

Once spawned, you must fly down to the factory containing transport helicopters. The main objective is to destroy all these choppers. There are also Generic weaponry units and Light MTs, which you will encounter. The reward for mission completion is 80,000 COAM. 

Destroy The Tester AC

This is a short mission where you must eliminate a boss mech called Tester AC. We recommend using boost and melee attacks since they deal more damage. The mission is completed once the boss is defeated and awards 95,000 COAM.

Attack The Dam Complex

A new feature in this mission is that you will have two allied mechs beside you. The main objectives are to destroy the facility structures and MT squads. Once destroyed, the mission is completed and rewards you 190,000 COAM.

Destroy The Weaponized Mining Ship

You are spawned in a desert area where you must approach the weaponized ship called Strider. This can be located far away once you travel in a straight direction. Upon reaching the mining ship, a laser beam will target you; dodge this using your Assualt Boost.

Once you reach the ship, destroy its leg to make it stationary. Next, destroy sub-generators installed on the ship that are marked with a TGT symbol on your HUD and are four in number. It is important to keep dodging the laser beam since it deals with incredible damage. 

After destroying all four generators, you must beat Strider to finish off the laser beam. Attack right after it shoots the laser until the health depletes. Escape the ship to safety, and the mission will be completed. You get 270,000 COAM. 

Operation Wallclimber

This is a long mission with a few objectives; on top of that, there are no checkpoints in this mission. You will land in an area where your first target is turrets installed on top of the gate ahead. We recommend flying from either the right or left side and on top of them, destroying the turrets using melee attack. 

Next, you must face grounded strong mechs guarding the gate. Once all the mechs are destroyed, you must use the catapult to locate the interactable door. Behind this door are more grounded mechs you must fight through.

Keep progressing until you reach the last door, where you must grab extra supplies. Upon opening the door, face another tough boss called Juggernaut. After being victorious, the mission finishes by rewarding you with 330,000 COAM.

Retrieve Combat Logs

In a time-limited mission, you must collect at least five combat logs within 5 minutes. These are wreckage with smoke coming out of them, with some guarded by mechs. Once you collect all logs, you must wait for the timer to end. The completion reward is  10,000 COAM.

Investigate BAWS Arsenal No.2

After spawning, fly through the area and explore it until you are sniped with a laser. Locate the enemy and eliminate it. Keep moving forward where you must face similar invisible enemies and keep picking them off one by one,

You must find an interactable door at the end, open it, and enter inside. Jump down in the hole where you must face an ambush of similar mechs. Eliminate all the enemies to complete the mission and get 180,000 COAM. 

Attack The Watchpoint

This is the last mission of Chapter 1 in Armored Core 6: Mission List. Once you enter the Sector 1 area, eliminate the targets atop the buildings. We recommend destroying the turrets on buildings, followed by the ones found on the ground. After this, you must enter Sectors 2 and 3 and fight off enemies similarly.

Ultimately, you must reach a platform revealing a bridge below you. Cross the bridge to enter a cutscene, where you must face Sulla boss. After defeating it, cross the area and interact with a door of the control center facility.

Collect the supplies, head down the hole, destroy the mech, and trigger another cutscene. After the cutscene finishes, you must face off against another boss, Balteus. A long and tiring fight with victory completes the mission and grants you 380,000 COAM. 

Chapter 2

These are Chapter 2 missions from Armored Core 6: Mission List.

Infiltrate Grid 086

After being spawned, move your way to the end, where you must face a mini-boss called Rummy. Once you defeat them, fly to a higher level where you will find a door that opens, marked as “01“. After entering the area, fly towards the waypoint and open the next gate.

Fly up to the vents, where you encounter a further squad of enemies. Interact with the door at the end of the vents and move your way to the next waypoint using the catapult. Eliminate the last MT squad and enter the next door.

Stack up on supplies since you must face another boss, Smart Cleaner. After beating it, the mission ends, rewarding you 160,000 COAM.

Another brief mission where you must eliminate several enemies, including four Coyotes MT squads, to complete the mission. The completion reward is 65,000 COAM.

Ocean Crossing

The mission starts from a platform where you must open a door. Move your way forward and reach the upper level of Grid 086. Keep proceeding toward the waypoint, and we recommend dodging the lasers by going under bridges and buildings as a cover.
