Notes:
-Works with all boosters, but KIKAKU is the only one with any real effect.
-The fastest assault boost (even alongside tech weve found for it so far) peaks at around 570-600 speed.
-MeC CAN be cancelled into assault boost.
-Kick cant be MeC cancelled AND core expansion.
-Each MeC is about 150 meters long

Hope this is helpful for all you PvP shitters running double trigger zimmers and gatling guns.

Pulse Blade has by far the longest cancleable charging distance, so If you wanna play it without bare hand, use pulse blade
Also kikaku is the best booster for melee attack cancle but if don't or can't use it make sure your ac has at least 7000 melee attack thrust
Below 7000 is way too slow, so it's gonna be meaningless

@doves5457

Some melee weapons are slower but hit wayyyyy harder… for example pile bunker charged up attack does explosive and melee damage at once and during a stagger can do anywhere from 6600 to 9000 AP damage depending on resistances and armor

Not movement tech related but you can also quick boost cancel out of some things like the stun needle firing animation.

And the rail rifle charged shot

@thisguy4259

34w↑15

Quick boosting cancels out anything really and it's more that you can't do anything WHILE quick boosting.

Rapid fire weapons will have a short pause during the duration of a quick boost and the same goes for weapons that have a delay before firing like with the stun needle you mentioned. The only exceptions I have seen are weapons that you can charge- as quick boosting doesn't seem to interrupt a charging weapon or a full charge nor does it remove it.

@thisguy4259

34w

This is all based from what I've seen and experienced. I have yet to try out everything the game offers so there may be more exceptions to this.

@rightsideup6304

34w↑9

@@thisguy4259 It's barely been a month. No rush in finding out more hidden 'mechanics' in the game. For sure something I noticed (Needs confirmation) is that if for example you charged a weapon and before it fires you cancel it and reposition with a quick boost, the charge gauge goes down but not instantly. So you can go back to the full charge in significantly less time. Makes for really cool combos.

playing with this a bit and i feel like it's important to point out for anyone who hasn't put two and two together yet: you can use this to save whiffed pile bunker shots. much less useful for movement because it doesn't give you much of a boost, but it won't go on cooldown if you cancel. from there you can chain off the boost into another shot now that you're probably closer.

If you use melee weapons that have more than 1 consecutive hits, or a fist, you can QB -> Melee cancel -> QB with different direction -> Melee cancel -> QB with different direction -> Melee cancel until you run out of different directions to QB with, which can let you chase an opponent across extremely far distance with pinpoint accuracy if you do hard lock on them.

@potss8063

additionally if you have one fist and one pilebunker, you can dash cancel into full charge range within a half a second with fist even from far away when you stagger enemy with shoulder weapons and then feed them insta-kill full charge pilebunker.
