Talk me out of putting 3 Flux on a Fury

The only downside would be, that’s it’s only really useful in some, not all maps. But I’m going for it, as well.

Nope not gonna do it. Those Flux are tremendous at range and I really hate the sound when they melt my bots.

Prepare for the backlash though; you will be hunted like a low life hydra pilot. Lol.

Yes you shouldn't do it,I find them such a P.I.T.A.!

If you have a Long Range hanger it is Awesome. Costs a lot to upgrade. I am running a Flux/Gecko Natasha which works fairly well. Just like most builds I sometimes get my rear handed to me but normally works well on LR maps.

I like variety. Currently my long range bot is a Treb Butch.

Any bot can mount it, but only in a fury are reds truly fluxed.

Do it.

That about sums up Pixo logic:

”for example explosive weapon with high penetration nullifies a robot's high explosive resistance”

Which is entirely different to:

“High resistance (of any damage type): 17% reduced damage against high Penetration weaponry”

to the OP - go for it with the flux. I managed to get 3 dragoons before economy changed so will level those, but from being on the wrong end of some fluxes they are great for suppression and can really do some damage even with pretty short exposure. I think they just have a different role vs dragoon

I won the Fury in a Gold chest. That's what prompted my (in)decision.

3 Flux fury is a monster once Flux is at 10+.

I do 2 Flux 1 Treb.... which is also a great build.  The advantage being that sometimes you only get peaks at those pesky spectres on the other side of the world and the Treb can nail them when they stick their heads out, or pop Griffs mid jump.  The flux hit x's tell you when you're clear to shoot the treb.  Like a pointer.  I almost never miss even when threading the needles on the ship for instance.


DPS output of the 2 builds is about the same for the first 3-6 seconds then the advantage moves to the Flux.  I'm going to get my Treb to Mk2-12 and that will extend to 8-10 seconds of equivalent output with the 3 Flux version.


If you are running with a clan, it's incredibly helpful to your team.

Never make it your first bot.

The only map the build isn't very useful is the moon base imho.

If you enjoy playing BR, it's definitely not worth it.

The game modes are now standalone. This means you can play BR all day.

Builds like the Flux Fury are a lot less effective in BR than in other modes like TDM/Dom which tend to be slower paced and more a war of attrition. BR you need to capture and defend beacons, so brawlers are very important. If you need range, builds that are more bursty like the Fury Dragoon is a better option.

I would say if you like playing all modes, the Fury Dragoon is better anyways. It can actually defend a beacon if it came down to it.

I had plans for Flux/Hydras/Noricums that I'm not going to touch anymore mainly cuz TDM/KoTH are dead to me. Focusing on builds that are more versatile and fun now. It feels great, I'm actually excited about the game now.

One must consider one's entire hanger to decide whether flux or dragoon is the better build.  Also clan needs may factor in.

The build is usable on everything except the moon... maybe not ideal, but Flux/Fury is both what my clan needs and complements what I have.

I'm working on a bot to swap in for my Flux Fury when I'm solo, but don't have any leveled enough yet.

Clan versus Clan battle on Springfield... the opposing Treb Butch beat our Flux Fury pretty easily... walked out from cover, unloaded, returned to cover. After that was rinsed and repeated the Fury was dead.

So that is a reason to not use the Flux.
