I'd like to try this since I have a lot of Boas left over from Christmas event. One question, why are your weapons 7/8? Is it because of MM or it just so happened? The reason I'm asking is that all my orkans/tarans/thunders are all level 8. Would it work, ie. still place me in the same tier you are in or do I have to level separate Thunders to lvl 7 and use lvl 8 tarans/orkans? Are you referring to my setup?

in my experience, at least until new mm hits, u can get those weapons up to 9,maybe 10 but I haven't tested it yet, and stay in the same tier. I should have mentioned that I've tested weapons from 5/5 to 12/12. Currently, an 8/8 load out is the most stable.

I understand why your Gareth would be 4/6 like the mediums (penalty) - but shouldn't your Gepard be more like 4/8 to still be right there with the 4/6 mediums?

Practicing brickfighting but got punished by Twin Thunder Carnage / Thunder Magnum Leo (while using Taran Thunder Boa). What should I do when facing these bots?

Ambush at close range is always the best practice for Boa especially with a Thunder-Orkan setup. Get real close and start a COD (circle of death) maneuver. Both Leo and Carnage tend to overshoot at knife range. The Carnage has much lower health and I'm able to destroy it with one full clip of L9 Orkans. The Leo however is much tougher and you'll have a better chance of surviving by ambush instead of attacking head on at short range. Tarans are effective against Carnage when it's out in the open. I'd keep my distance to more than 300m and chip away - not as effective against Leo out in the open because it's one Taran vs three Mags.

Your best strategy is close, fast, and smashy. A Taran just doesn't have high enough burst damage for ambushing. Switch to another Orkan.

Okay, let me address the first problem with the setup, A. Not enough Boas, 4 slots, why not 4 Boas, B. See Reason A, C. See Reason B.

Note that the guide was written long before the current tier system and fit into what was considered "silver" at the time. 4 slots were common at that level. My hangar now has five slots, obviously (slots before bots!) and is still almost entirely Boas.
