Someone give me tips on Agios-F and Eclipse-F. I love how they look but I'm not grokking how to play with them.
Eclipse-F is your "shooting" version and does not have a single melee at all other than maybe a shoulder tackle, I think (which would be stupid slow). If you're playing it, be ready to keep moving and positioning yourself away from folks that are trying to melee you and provide support fire to your partner. Both the Evolved and Extreme Evolution of the unit has a Main that is Clip-based and can be reloaded after it's used up. So you can shoot the hell out of it. CSa
CSa is solid but gets overshadowed by both the Main and Sub though it does provide a nice Stun ability.
Sub is very good and better than CSa other than damage. It's really helpful for protecting yourself against incoming opponents. You can also cancel into it from Main if you need to conserve boost. Make sure to use it all up because it won't reload until all shots are fired.
Melee shoots missiles. Single missiles are pretty suck and you can't fire your main while using them so not super recommended. The Special Shot version shoots 6 in a formation and while it won't hit a lot of things, it's good enough to provide pressure to force make it easier to hit your main. If it hits them, then all good too, lol.
Extreme Evolution version basically gets a super upgraded version of everything + a gerobi and a one-shot per life CSa. You can also shoot missiles during your main shot now as well making it pretty nice. Missile Cluster can be controlled too. Also the CSa turns into a ball of doom that explodes with a stun effect. Very good, if used properly.

Aios-F is the "balanced" type or "Funnel" Type" The Evolved version has a 4 shot funnel and a 2 shot gerobi along with a CSa. So you'll need to be careful with your ammo in this form, make full use of the CSa when possible and it has a stun property to help out.
The Sub funnnels actually have unlimited range from what I can tell, they'll pretty much go after your opponent no matter how far they are, something that other funnel units lack. Gerobi is like Seravee's beam and independent of Aios but it can be hard to hit. It can be canceled from your Main weapon and it'll hit though you'll have to be careful with the timing otherwise it'll miss.
Extreme Evolution version basically gets all of the Evolved version + a bunch of new shit, lol.
Sub Funnels get two types. You can set them around you using Neutral Sub. That acts like Strike Freedom's funnel set. It'll fire when your main does. If you input a direction with sub, it'll shoot out 4 funnels and they'll teleport to your opponent before firing.
Special Shot is a gerobi that has a projectile barrier, fairly standard.
N Special Melee throws out a boomerang for you (though it sucks really). Input a direction with Special Melee will create a fence near your opponent.
Both Aios have melee so you can smack them if need be. Make sure to use CSa because the ammo for even the Extreme Evolution is still low so you'll be running short on your weapons if you're just tossing stuff out.
