I love the X Divider. I used it through all of the Normal difficulty FB Missions and it's my main online.

Edit: Something to note is that the X Divider cannot fly. If you dash in the air, the MS will also move towards the ground. That being said it's pretty fast for a 2500 suit and along with it's godly machine gun, you can keep up pressure easily. CSB is once per life but the G-Bits track the enemy until the moment they fire which can be used for interception if you get caught in a melee combo moments after you let go of the button.

Also as an easter egg, if you finish the fight with either CSB or the Burst Attack, your victory pose will be in X form, not X Divider.

The suit is meant to be played essentially with fuwa step. Did you try playing with it ? In my opinion, that makes it better.

[BrasaSonozaki]

X Divider is pretty cool. Has some fun tools to work with. It is unfortunate that it can't do much in the air, but other than that it is great.

[Setsuna Yuki]

I saw some XDV vids. With fuwa step and Hyper Bazooka fired upward, it can be a threat. Also Harmonica Blades (bc) have good guidance.

FUWA step? What's that?

[Setsuna Yuki]

Basically, you input c (jump/boost button) immediately after a step. You'll get a great momentum that avoids many things and allow you to move while facing your opponent so that you won't stop by firing your weapons (i.e. no backturned firing).

Oh, I do that all the time. Didn't know it had a special name

[Mr Calamari]

Still pretty new to the EXVS games of the GvG series so I'm not sure if it has a use or not, but the Harmonica Blade can be charged to make the blade wider by holding the buttons down. Not sure on damage difference or anything else though. If that is what was meant by "Can be maintained to improve tracking," then I apologize for repeating information.

the only thing worth noting outta that video is probably B > fuwa cancel back > A,

other than that, feel free to chain any of his weapon together.it will probably connect.

Any observed changes between this and GX yet?

Any observed changes between this and GX yet? 

 

What I've found so far going through the wiki:

• Ranged: Reload times slightly increased (1-2s)
• Melee: Damage slightly decreased
• Sub: Hyper Bazooka→BH Blade
• [bC]: BH Blade→GX Equipment Swap
• Hyper Bazooka (GX): Cannot be mortar-fired like Jamil's X-DV can.

 

But from talking to people in the Skype lobby the most significant difference reported seems to be an overall drop in mobility due to not being able to brake cancel by BZ anymore. [bC] doesn't touch the ground so you can't use that, meaning you have to use a harmonica blade (1 ammo/7s) or worse your harmonica beam (19s reload). So you wind up not pressing as hard with X-DV as you would with Jamil, playing much more conservatively with the weapons and relying much more on GX's standard boost dash movement for stability.

 

I haven't committed to buying the suit yet though; this is just what I've gathered from translating and listening.
