All silver hanger for E1 to M3?

What a noble intent!
Although I don't play in master league I would like to provide my input.

The first bot in your hangar I'd get rid of, is the Boa, replacing it with a Punisher Griffin.
I don't like snipers and I lack experience with them, but I feel that coupled with molots, Nashorn would be better than Kang Dae. But I'd skip the Natty anyway for a Molot Griffin.
So
Punisher Griffin
Molot Griffin
RDB Griffin as is
Thunder / Punisher Leo as is
not a big fan of Pinatas, but I think the other Leo is ok as well.

good luck, let us know how it goes

I think the punisher griffin is played just out of plasma range, or up close and personal. Either you can damage them and they can't do it back, or you get close enough that you do substantially more damage than they can dish out. Stew Pendous is a pretty big fan of them, though, you might want to check out some of his vids with them.

Haha you cray cray bro. playing without any component equipment is handicap enough for me.

Once I get the other punisher-t to 10 I'll try replacing the punisher thunder leo with a punisher griffin. I need to figure out how to maximise the mobility of the griffin and minimise damage taken. The punisher is a weapon that requires you be exposed from cover for a while to unload a full clip. I've always passed on a punisher griffin for a Leo in the past because the Leo has the HP to stand there and hose something down. The significant increase in punisher damage the griffin is capable of dealing should help to drop reds quicker than the Leo at ranges where the thunder of the Leo would be ineffective for anything other than ancil dropping. The addition of a 2nd griffin would be a help in KOTH too.

Imho Boa is too slow anyway, simply accept that you won't have a decent beacon runner



I've used Punisher Griffin a bit before earning an Inquisitor.

Best range is "just outside the Taran range" , of course you can judge your opponent's weaponry and act accordingly (for instance, if you face a DB, you can hit from 350m) , anyway let say that "safe zone" is around 400m. Below, you start taking risk from short range weaponry that outdamages your punishers. Over, your damage will be minimal.
This, given you're facing knife fighters. Do not challenge midrangers, you won't outdamage them... and forcing to close distance might lead to unnecessary risks, if possible it's better to avoid direct confrontation.

Punishers have a second ideal range for extreme situation, point blank (ok I don't have the know-how to quibble is 50m or 100m or 200m is bare minimum), but fact is: when you're desperate, you can deal tons of damage from very close, although you'll take severe damage in the process, or be destroyed already. In this case, let say you hide behind cover and an overconfident enemy is approaching you... provided you have enough ammo, calculate a couple of seconds for shooting against the wall, then come out ot cover and unload against the red.
This way your punishers will enter the accelerate state and deal high damage in short time.



Besides this, always watch your ammo reserves, and consider that what you lack mostly is burst damage. On the bright side, there's no opponent that you can't take down, as long as you can freely shoot at him (this poses a problem against dashes, mostly haechi). Anciles and physical shields won't stand long against your bullets.
I think that Thunder is superior in taking down anciles and from short range, but full Punishers are more versatile if you can adjust your range correctly. On the other hand you have the Jump that can help you keeping distances from PDB and DB builds. 

Eventually the molot griffin, but you have 2 midrangers already.
I'd replace pinatas on Natasha with punishers but it's a personal preference.

The mighty spiral patton or zenit/Nori natasha maybe?

Molot griff can at least outrange the most weapons but dmg is getting low around 750-799m

Yes, silver builds only for now. I like the challenge of trying to find the best builds, playing the builds and the challenge of going up against premium builds with what is considered trash equipment. Once the hangar is complete and I have played it to completion which would be finding a home in low to mid M3, then I may filter in some WSP and gold gear to see how this effects the performance of the hangar. I would like to have a good understanding on the viability of the non componets weapons and bots leagacy gear at higher league play. I think too often we dismiss the leagacy gear and tell new players to try and obtain nearly unobtainable gear. Ideally the hangar would make it to M1 with mostly silver gear with a few orkans, tarans, zues and trident thrown in. Maybe an ancilots and fury for bots too.

The 2nd stage would occur after a break to play my fun to play hangar. I have lvl 1 sphincter storm to lvl up.

Almost 200 league points from M3. I'm gaining traction in E1 but at 50% win rate it will be my turn to be the seal soon. I hope the hangar can push into M3 once 10/10.

You're doing great !

I am running an all silver (Ag) bots and weapons hangar in Android Expert. 2 hangars actually but #1 is the main hangar and #2 is the Yamantau and Canyon KOTH hangar. I've done this before back in April but I decided to have another go at an all Ag hangar to see how it does in the current Android Expert meta and if there are better Ag builds out there I am missing out on.

The proliferation of Specters and Inquisitors makes things a little different than the Dash heavy meta in April. The Shocktrian Specter is now a common sight in Android Expert but I have found a great hard Ag counter to the bot. The Noricum Patton. I am still learning the Nori Patton but it is absolutely devastating to a Spec parked behind cover waiting on a cool down timer. My 10,9,9,9 Noricum can strip 50% off a similar level MK1 Spec in a single salvo. If they figure it out and move around a bit you can have a hard time landing a good hit but that is part of the difficulty and skill of piloting the build. The other builds play as I remember and are still highly effective if situational. I ran a Kang Dae Noricum Natasha for a while but fell in love with the Noricum and doubled down on the Nori on a Patton.

What are the strongest 100% Ag builds on the game?

A bit of an update. I've been running the hangar again and made some changes. I keep finding good silver builds but I believe these are the best. If I ever MK2 any hangar it would be this one.

The recent buff to Kang Dae offer the hangar some range now and viable counters to 600m builds. Not sure about the lead hose Griffin though. It melts really fast compared to the Thunder Punisher Leo. I should probably take the lockdown ammo module off it and use a repair module. Maybe the Thunder Punisher Leo with the lockdown module to make up for its slowness and lower DPS. The addition of active modules to these bots in 4.7 has really helped the hangar. I'm getting more and more 1 million+ damage games now. A lot of that must come from the repair modules. The Thunder Pinata Leo is beastly with a maxed nuclear reactor passive and repair active.

Golem Kang/Lead hose perhaps? No.... wait Zenit/Lead hose!

WHY IS THIS SO HARD.  Every league point is a friggin battle.  I have to claw it out of Pix's hands with Pinatas, Thunder and Tulumbas.  I hit 4500 the 1st time around easily and then they threw 7000 cup hangars at me before I quit.  It is extra hard this time around.  Maybe I just got worse at this.
