Yep, also got an offer for inquisitor and ember for the same price.
To be honest I will probably get a Haechi, I’ve been sitting on some iTunes vouchers kind of waiting for this to pop up.
I’ll go for a run first and think about my priorities in life, what’s important what’s not, etc etc. By the time I get back from the run the wife will have rolled out of bed, started some mindless argument with one of the kids about Rice Krispies on the sofa, or something like that. (No doubt, I will certainly have done something to have caused the crisis). Then after listening to the madness for half an hour I will probably just buy an imaginary robot, at least my six year will be supportive of my decision, he likes robots and has a very loose grasp of the real value of money.

Well its not like you can anything (of use?) for the family since you have the vouchers already..Get that Haechi buddy, Imaginary bots are subservient. ?

Heavily discounted already? Sales must be bad.
Seeing it in my account too, but I already paid my dues and got my bots.

The inquisitor or the bulgasari? I can't really see the inquisitor a better banger.

You Sir, have just validated a dash purchase for a lot of us!

What bothers me is that Pixonic pretended to release these Dash robots slowly to limit their impact on the meta and so Pixonic could balance them. And now the meta is the Dash robots and their nerfs were a joke.
Making them more and more available without balancing them is literally changing this game from a Mech game into a bad version of Counterstrike where mobility and burst firepower is king.

It's ridiculous. They are giving us something with zero monetary value and saying "look at this deal. Only $100." I get that they spent hours working on making them for the game. But you can buy entire games for less than that price. I just got Overwatch for $20. Just ridiculous.

$150+ AUD still too much for a game item, even it looks cheaper compared to $300+AUD before. Good marketing strategy from Pixonic.

Guess the next wave of dash will be coming soon.. The game currently has a big problem: Lancelot with Ancile is still unsurpassed in its niche, having double shielding with 66% Dash firepower. And still it is dirt cheap compared to other things (cue for Pix to harmonize Lance price with Inquisitor, and Ancile price with Ember...). So we can expect a bot which will make Lancelot obsolete, same way as Dashes made Rogatka, Griffin and Rhino basically obsolete (Galahad was obsolete even before Dashes).

Got those offers too. Tempted tbh, but nah. Got one of each dash already. Haechi is so good atm, id really like another one. If they would sell them maxed already, id take one. But like this, 100 bucks to then grind my 「bum-bum」 off to level it and then park it in the garage cause some new op bot gets released? Nono, aint my cup of tea anymore in this game.

So expensive. This only for rich guy. Yeah, pretty ridiculous. I hope people spending this kind of amounts on digital "goods" put at least around 1000 USD into investments/savings/retirement fund monthly. Because spending more than 10% of monthly saved money on digital goods seems... insane to me. Anyway, the only way for a free player to enjoy the game is to just not advance in leagues. This is most easily achieved by running light bots, so you can actually keep upgrading and get that feeling of progress. My suggested hanger for F2P is something like: Aphid Gepards Orkan and Taran Rogatkas Aphid and Pinata Stalkers Noricum and Gecko Pattons RDB and Spydra Griffins (these have sufficiently low total damage potential) Hydra Fujins various Boas (HP) and Golems (firepower, upgrade cheapness) Playing with these should provide both fun, and keep you out of P2W battles most of the time. If it looks like you are going to P2W territory, then switch some bots to lighter ones.

Just try run fun hangar with aphids Jesse (because I don't have gepard and never planned to buy one), orkans rog, tulumbas/tarans doc, and Inquisitor thunder/orkans. One match on dreadnought map. My teammates and me lost the battle but I got placed in 2nd place with only 129k damage lol.

Rogatka isn't obsolete now with the Kumiho. The Jump ability for the Rog much better than Kumiho's Dash ability. Sure, you can get around faster, but jumping over cover is an unsurpassed ability in War Robots (besides Descend of course). The option to jump right over obstacles is the best for ambush tactics and you almost can't take fire from rockets while doing so.

But then jumping in general is such suicidal activity, that I kinda think it cancels out. And then getting beacons... Kumiho is just so ridiculously fast compared to anything else, zipping across maps, and from cover to cover. There just are so few skilled Kumiho pilots (because so many of them are whales, who have never been the underdog, who has to win by skill against superior gear), that it looks like Rogatka is good compared to Kumiho. In reality it is the Rogatka pilot who is good compared to the Kumiho pilot, in these (very common) cases. But even a skilled Rogatka can't really touch a skilled, aware Kumiho pilot, unless Kumiho makes a mistake. Yet the same Kumiho pilot can choose to engage the Rogatka and more often win the resulting exchange of Orkan bursts. And Rog pilot making a jumping mistake is generally much more fatal, than Kumiho's dash mistake. Au for Au, Rogatka is of course much better value (almost equal at 10th of the price or so), but in absolute terms, Kumiho is better.

But it doesn't mean you shouldn't buy it, and not use it, and that it's complete garbage. It's like comparing the Lancelot to the Inquisitor. Same hardpoints, way different price, with the cheaper one still being viable.
