The coming of Puru, um . . . 12? (review of DWG3 DLC Marida Cruz/Kshatriya)

So many irons in so many fires, but let's forget about our problems and obligations for a minute and talk about something fun: Trashing thousands of suits for scrap, then selling the salvage! Judau, you taught us so much.

The second character to be releases by KOEI, Marida Cruz comes with Kshatriya (4-wings) when purchased for $6 (480 MSP). Like with Susanowo, Kshatriya can be used by all pilots immediately, and its special ability, which raises the unit's defense after 250 kills.

Kshatriya's big advantage is it's HUGE range. Because of the quad-wing design, her beam sword attacks and beam attacks are omni-directional, much like a Qubeley. At first I though it was kinda lame, requiring me to fight in a group to be effective. However, once you start to work with her combos, especially with the charge 4 and charge combo alternations, she can really do some damage. Kshatriya's air combos are pretty sick as well, so chain those in whenever possible.

Overall, the DLC is work picking up. Marida's mission is incredible (you end up getting 400+ kills in starting sequence), and the suit is pretty sick too.
