So, I've seen some posts from people proposing new bot ideas that Pix will probably never adopt. So, I figured I would give it a shot too.
Just had an awesome idea for a new bot (and it would be great if they could work this in to all bots). How about a bot, whose special ability, is to use ANY one of the abilities that are out there? Basically, it would have an ability "module", and people can "buy" abilities for this bot. Only 1 ability can be equipped at a time. Pix would have another potential revenue stream for buying the abilities, whales would of course buy them all, and people like me would have something new to grind for. Actually, they could make 3 new bots with this, so that people (well most of us) can grind for the weight class we like best. The possibilities on the battlefield would be endless. You could have heavy bot that dashes, or a light bot that can glide, or a medium bot that can descend. Keep the weapon load outs powerful but balanced.
Light bot - speed on par with the Gepard or a little slower (around 55 km/h), HP on par with the Jesse, and have 3 light hardpoints.
Medium bot - speed on par with Galahad or a little slower (around 45 km/h), HP on par with Doc or Rog, and have 2 medium and 1 light hardpoint.
Heavy bot - speed and HP on par with Natasha (don't know the specs of hand), and has 1 Heavy, 1 Medium and 2 light hardpoints
Specs bound to change of course. I'm trying for balanced but premium here.

I'd grind for the light and medium one! Might be good if they could assign specific modules to be cheaper for different weight classes like stealth for light, ancile for medium, shield for heavy.
I also wish theyd consider variations on ancile like 120/180 degrees front but with higher hp or an ancile umbrella that just protected the mech from hydras, spirals and artillery but allowed regular engagement on the ground level.

Ok now you're just asking for the moon! I would love a new light weapon called AMS - Anti Missile System. It would take 1 light slot, and basically shoot down any homing missiles coming your way. It has limited ammo of course, and cannot be used to attach bots. Or, a mirror shield that reflects lasers back to the owner!

Why doesn't Pixonic make a light robot with a built-in energy shield?
