\nIn order to build a new Nephilim from scratch, there are three processes which must be followed.
First of all you need to catch yourself a wild NephilimâŠâŠ
You do that over and over and over and over again.
In this game âNaphilimâ is the term used to describe a giant machine that fell from the sky on one day.
Most of them fall down from the sky still in the âactiveâ state, which means they will try to attack the player on sight, since they will perceive the players as âenemiesâ.
The player usually accepts the mission from one of the three Nephilim Companies and then proceeds to capture the mecha. While going on such missions, you could stumble upon âinactiveâ Nephilim from time to time. \nThe first Nephilim is issued to you by the company as a part of the gameâs story. Every consecutive Nephilim you want you must hunt it down for yourself. There was an option of buying it from the company as well, but those frames have worse stats and the price isnât really worth it.
ăHmm, this is something I have never considered in my plans before.ă
Next step is to equip the captured Nephilim with custom parts.
And since the Nephilimâs exoskeleton looked like a human mannequin, equipping it with parts was actually like playing dress-up dolls.
The parts could be found in the wilderness, bought from the company or black market, or even traded with other players. Each source has its own merits and demerits, but usually you want to obtain the best parts possible.
ăHoming missiles that explode on contact with the ground. Nah, this might be too much of an overkill hereâŠâŠă \nOnce all that is done, you need to register the Nephilim to you and give it its own unique name. There, one fresh, new Nephilim, coming right up!
ăName, a name, huhâŠâŠ? Well, this time around I canât really name it after its color scheme, so unlike Kingfisher, maybe I should go for something that would resonate with its overall appearance?ă
Letâs see, how would that sound in English? Or maybe German would be better? Nah, German is too pretentiousâŠâŠ
ăFrom now on, your name shall beâŠâŠă
Super Gutsy Man, the second place in the ranking, was greatly confused at the current moment.
He heard that since this morning, Kingfisher, who was once said to have destroyed the whole ranking ladder in this game, has returned.
\nâSanrakuâ was surely the name of the Kingfisherâs pilot, but the frame itself was not Kingfisher. So Super Gutsy Man felt kind of honored that he would be the first one to fight âSanrakuâsâ new creation.
And once both frames spawned on the battle arenaâŠâŠ
ăâFiddlerâs ClubââŠâŠ?ă
Super Gutsy ManâŠâŠ I remember him to be strong. His frame, âHell Houndâ was equipped with a bending laser both at the front of the frame and at its back, which made it a bit problematic to fight, but my âFiddlerâs Clubâ couldnât possibly have asked for a better sparring partner.
Contrary to Kingfisher, this frame couldnât possibly destroy its enemies with one blow, but it was created just for the sake of fighting other human opponents.
ăItâs not my hobby to follow a loss with another loss!ă
So letâs give it my best to try and bring âPhoenixâ down together with this gloomy mood in which ShanFro threw me!
