Advise for slot.4 mech

In the narrow scope of the question, judging you are fairly low in the leagues:

I would add for the 4th, a Leadhose (All Punisher Griff).

I would also change that Natty to 2 Thunders and either Pinatas or Puns.  You have the Molot Griff for range and Kang Dae is,really, suboptimal.   Or you could switch the Natty out for another Griff and go RDB... up to you. 

I got 8k workshop points... not really much atm. And id like to ask... why are many people running a dual thunder build on natty? I mean. Its kinda slow.... not something you want when facing any rdb mech overall

It has to be used carefully and at the right time.  Each battle has a flow... and, over time, you can get a feel for when builds are more likely to show up.  Not always, obviously, but most of the time you can see whats being used and drop accordingly.  If you get caught by a dbl Thunder Natty with no cover and in close range, you die.  That's why it's usually ran.  The goal is not to use it when nothing but LR and MR are out.  Molot Griff would counter all of that.  Instead, use it on BR when you need a LOT of power, quickly, at a contested beacon.  Or anytime when you can see the Reds are lacking in protection from that build.  You would be surprised how good the Battle Natty can be if driven well, especially in Silver and below leagues, but even on up to Gold.

If that is not your cup of tea, then like I said, add the RDB Griff in with the Gunship and the Leadhose and have an air force with a Golem solo ground interdiction force! 

(PS I am keeping my answer focused on Ag or cheap WSP/Au equipment... so there are other otions.  F2P, though, I would run something like what I said.)


IMO. YMMV

I would go in a different direction. You need a beacon capper, and if you already have 8k WSP, keep saving til you can get a Rhino. Then, save your gold for a pair of Orkans and build a DB Rhino. Until you get the Orkans though, you can do a leadhose Rhino. More HP than the Griffin and more capable to brawl with, and ground speed to get you to cap a beacon.

Raijin is also not a bad idea. But you really have to ask yourself if you're ok with all the slow bots, or if you'll have more fun in a fast bot. Stalkers are a ton of fun in the lower leagues. And if you grind during the events, you can easily get Aphids for free as well as Magnums.

It's also not a bad idea to consider a Carnage too. It'll likely have the lowest learning curve for you.

My choice would be also be to add a punisher Griffin. They are good brawlers in close combat but can still be effective up to 500m away allowing you to deal dammage on pilots with weapons that are only effective up to 300 or 350m away. A punisher Griffin can also deal good dammage to physical shields and wear down energy shields. ... a great all rounder for sub 500m skirmishes.

You could also try running a Tulumbus/Pin Griffin for 300m-500m range ... they are good fun but weak against energy shields and good against physical shields... personally I would ditch the Molot Griff in favour of a Tulumbus/Pin Griffin and add the Punisher Griffin in your new slot.

There are of course loads of other options such as Leo or Vytaz builds, or perhaps setting up something small, fast and nimble as a beacon catcher.

At this point I would save all I could, while leveling up weapons. The next event shouldn't be to far out, see what you could grind to then start making decisions based on that.

That being said you can't go wrong with griffins and I'll use my Leo far more than my Natasha. I would go for griffin number 2 with punishers.

My best advice is take it slow and know where you want to go. You can always decide to go further if youy want to.
