Here’s a guide on how to play Pinaka in Mecha Break, a versatile support Striker that heals allies and provides protective shields.

Pinaka is a support Striker in Mecha Break that you can easily unlock early in the game. What makes her different from the likes of Luminae is this unit’s ability to apply force fields for the team. While the shields are up, it also continuously heals them. It’s a useful buff that requires you to be mindful of when the shields break.
Pinaka is meant to be played mostly as a support due to the lack of offensive options for this unit. However, this mech is good at what it does. This makes this unit a good ally to have on the battlefield. With that said, here is a guide on how to play Luminae in Mecha Break, including a breakdown of its abilities, some tips you should know, and counters.

How To Play Pinaka in Mecha Break

The main gameplay of Pinaka revolves around providing as much healing and shields to allies. You will mostly focus on keeping your allies healthy, as your Plasma Splitter is inaccurate at long range. However, if you manage to get close to your enemies, your energy shotgun can pack a punch when all the buckshot hits one target.
When enemies try to rush towards you or your allies, time your Cover Airdrop Kit to stagger them and deal damage. Due to this Striker’s defensive options, you can tank a lot of hits, so don’t be afraid to take the front when needed.
Pinaka Counters in Mecha Break
Pinaka is weak against Strikers who can widen the gap so as to void the full power of Plasma Splitter. Some examples include Falcon and Aquila, who are agile enough to keep moving. Taking down Pinaka can be a hassle to deal with, as you and your allies will have to focus your firepower to break its shields and stop the healing effect.
