5th slot.
Lance could be nerfed into oblivion tomorrow, 5th slot can never be nerfed.
Plus it's a HUGE boost to the amount of fire power and health you bring to a match as well.as giving you more versatility.
Pix has also said some gold bots are set to become silver bots... which might include lance.

Although I agree that the 5th slot is by far the best option, I don't think that the Lance will be nerfed once again and I highly doubt that it will be turned into a Silver bot. Pixonic was probably talking about the Gepard/Gareth/Galahad, which are infact comparable to Silver/WSP bots and have no advantage over them anymore. |

I don't think they will make Fury and Lance for silver and I was more talking about indirect nerfs BUT... it's still worth thinking about! |

nobody on this forum would recommend Lance over 5th slot.
I would also recommend a Taran Cossack over an Artillery Natasha, if that gives me any credibility.

Dude on here is trying to convince everyone that ST bulg, Tempest and Zeus fury come second best to a Punisher / Tulum Griffen or some other mixed range nonsense. lol And your name gives you all the cred you need  |

ide say the question is a good 1 and not as black and white as it would first seem....
1. What league are you in? and how well are you currently scoring?
I ask this question because if your strugling in the league your in and not scoring high then maybe the lance is the better option... it may help you gain more gold now to save up for the 5th.
2. What bots have you currently got running and in storage?
If you dont have a bot to fill the space adequately then opening it wont help. as in question , having no way of gaining gold or enough silver means your weak 5 bots may never do enough damage to get upgraded or replaced. ive seen some epic 3 slot hangars raining chaos over 5 slot who arent upgraded right. theres a balance that needs to be respected in hangar upgrades as we no...
So dependant on those 2 questions ide say maybe a lance over a slot???

Get the 5th slot.
It'll pay off in the long run, but first
Think of what's going in the 5th slot, I'm still figuring out what best fits in my 5th slot. Might be the Hover.

It is not so difficult to find a good bot to put in the 5th slot, especially at lower levels: a stock Thunder/Pinata Leo or RDB Griffin are already quite good. |

haha im in no way discounting the stock silver bots and there viability in lower leagues, and sense would always say "get the slot!!" same as my dad would always say "put the money in the bank." but sometimes ya just wanna spin red : )
Why get either.. spend all your gold on dash comps and prey.
My completely free play account in gold 1average lvls are 6/7, is struggling after getting the 5th slot, as its so low on silver and coming up against lvls 9 to mk2 and rarely do i get top damage, but annoyingly high win rate! its only sacing grace is i beacon bonus a few games in10..
This is why i offered a different take on the slots/ bots debate..

Everytime I come across one I get wrecked. |

Neither. I've spent over 8000 Au speeding upgrades to increase my Ag/Au intake per game. I don't have a Lancelot or a 5th slot.
Aaaaand, fight!

Even if you don’t Mech out a lot it gives you another option depending on how the match is going or which map you get. Stock 3brawlers, a mid-range and a sniper if you are low to mid level. |

Before the league system was implemented, I would have said 5th slot without hesitation, but since we play in this world of leagues and tankers, I would say that it depends on if you want to prioratize winning or resource-gathering.
If you want to win games, get the 5th slot since it lets you play more agressively and gives a lot of flexibility to your hangar.
If you want to gather resources, take the Lancelot, because 1, you'll be sometimes be able to go on killing sprees with it, amassing lots of silver, gold, and keys, and, with only 4 slots, your games will end more quickly, allowing you to play more of them, which means more bronze chest spins and currency awarded per hour of play.
