While his mechanical weapons are a good weapon against the Xenomorphs I doubt he could effectively fight more than three at once without being overwhelmed. How many do you feel he could take on in bloodlusted combat?
All the ways you wish you could be, that's me. I look like you wanna look, I **** like you wanna ****, I am smart, capable, and most importantly, I am free in all the ways that you are not.
The Xenomorphs are considerably strong. They have been shown to tear down steel inch-thick doors in the films. Doc Ock wouldn't be able to see them sneaking up on him unless somehow his arms sensed them? How? Please don't ask.

His arms were powerful enough to withstand a mini-sun, while I'm not sure if they're acid resistant, I'm sure they could stand up to it at least for a while.
However, if he gets acid blood on his persons then he obviously dies.
Depends on the situation, if the Xenos surround him 360 degrees it doesn't look good for him. If they are rushing him from the front, he could last quite a bit, assuming he knows about the acid blood and takes care in how he eliminates the Aliens. I could see him taking aliens out just with his spikes, or crushing body parts. I guess he could rip them apart too but that means more acid blood and also occupying more tentacles than he needs to.
This mini-sun shit isn't so cut and dry, as it would have killed the people who were standing 20-30 feet away. IIRC, Ock said the arms were designed to counter the mini-suns magnetic abilities. I don't think that thing puts out heat/pressure/radiation, like a sun would.
So it's likely the acid-blood would eat through those arms, maybe not instantly.
Yeah, i could see Ock staving off three, maybe four Xenomorphs before sustaining serious injuries. Although, i wouldn't be surprised if one was more than enough to kill him. Considering how much trouble he gave Spiderman, though, Doc Ock should never be underestimated.
I really don't think the Xenos blood would cause much concern to Ocks Arms, at least not for a while. I do think the acid would be strong enough to destroy the arms over time but the main concern for Ock would be keeping the acid off of his body. Those arms arms are more than strong enough to squash a Xeno with one solid hit but if they're hit in the head, Xenos explode into a wave of acid.

1.Agreed.
2.But the Xenomorphs are rediculously resistant to blunt force trauma as seen in AVP. Celtic through him around, through stone wall, and it seemed fine. Let's not forget that they're tails impaled a stone wall inches deep and there small mouth can puncture a hole in the Yautja's helmet.
Does anyone know what his arms are even made of? I think they're adamantium BUT...think thats the comics...dunno if acid can burn through that though. Preds do have acid resistant armour I think but not 100% sure.
