My hangar setup has been updated. I picked up another aphid from the black market. Heres my setup:
L6 Leo-L5 Thunder/3x L5 Aphid
L6 Natasha-2x L5 Thunder/2x L7 Punisher
L5 Galahad- L5 Orkan/2x L6 Pinata
L6 Griffin- 2x L5 Tulumbas/2x L6 Pin
Heres what im tryna do.
Im planning to get another orkan so both can be placed on the griffin. Im also planning to get a taran to replace the orkan on the galahad. Problem is, which weapon do i get first? My workshops about to be L10 and so about to get 3 workshop slots. I have the 400 components for the orkan but only have the 100 components for the taran. Which do i get first? Suggestions pls
My weapons have been so weak lately, even my galahad is having a hard time killing a griffin. Which should I upgrade first?
Aphids
Orkan
Thunders
Tulumbas
or
Galahad
If you think you have better ideas for my weapons to use in my hangar, dont be afraid to share. I will be happy to use it.

Some thoughts:
You need a level 23 (I think?) Workshop to produce 400 Taran Components. Getting there is a slow process and focusing on a Taran will slow down your hangar development, because you reserve slots that could otherwise be used to produce components at bigger quantities. I would avoid it for now.
Instead, I suggest getting more Orkans first, until you have four to fully equip two Griffins. The DB Griffin is one of the best easy-to-build setups out there. After that, it might be a good idea to invest in a pair of Gusts to outfit a Stalker. It is super fun to pilot and the Gusts can easily be transferred to better bots later on.
First, get all the gear that you use to lvl 6. It is fast and cheap. After that it gets more tricky and you'll probably get different answers. Personally, I would first get all the bots that I plan to use for some time, to lvl 8. That way, you have close to max speed and you don't break the bank. If something is destined to be replaced soon, I would leave it at 6. When you are finished with your bots, get the high priority weapons to lvl 8. These include Orkans, Tarans, Gusts etc. Things that are useful throughout your War Robots career.
And don't buy anything with Gold. Get a 5th hangar slot first. More options means more fun and better odds at winning.
I hope I helped!

Thanks I guess I will have to use my old hangar setup? How about this (future hangar setup hopefully): Griffin-2x Orkan/2x Pinata Griffin-2x Orkan/2x Aphid Stalker-2x Gust ?-Punishers If i get my 5th slot then i guess i can use my gekkos now. |

Take advice from forum veterans seriously. Think about the future and what will benefit you for the long haul.I wish I had known of the forum when I started because I was like a drunken sailor on shore leave upgrading and buying everything. My sympathy to newbs getting stuck with this awful new economy, reason to be especially savvy upgrading . |

You'll never go wrong with Orkins!Learn to use them correctly, level up and rake!
Also the bots you've listed will suit you for a good while,don't buy any more till you can afford a couple of meta bots.
My choice would be Spectre and Persuer for starters.

Orkans will be with you forever you can't go wrong with leveling them.
Bots to near lvl 9 for mobility is important as well.
Pin / Pinata will not serve you beyond Gold.
Bring 1 or 2 thunders up towards lvl 9 but also consider some avengers or zeus for heavies.
Lots of pilots swear by Griffin if you like it don't hesitate to lvl 9.
Taran on Galahad is excellent, also consider magnums to go with it or with your Orks on the Griffin.

I would recommend making gusts as well as everything said on this thread. Gusts will "so far" serve you forever.
Plus there's no need at all to buy bots and weapons like in the olden days. Enough will be dished out to you in the chests.

go for the orkan first. it comes at lvl 5, and is faster to level up than taran. also there is a slim chance to win orkan (and taran, i believe) in bronze chests. the odds are very small though (i got lucky and won one in NE after opening maybe 2000 bc).
good luck and enjoy

dont use Au to buy it (though it is very tempting) until you have the 5th slot.

It sounds great! This is close to what I use in my 2nd account as well. The Griffins and the Stalker won't be replaced any time soon as they are the backbone of my hangar. The other two slots are open for experimentation. I prefer to have one mid/long range bot and one support bot. Some builds you can easily build and have fun with: RDB Griffin, Punisher Griffin, Molot Griffin, Gekko Patton, Aphid Patton, Thunder/Punisher Leo, Thunder/Pinata Leo, Punisher Galahad. A good thing at staying at lvl 6 for a while is that you can experiment a lot with the early builds. This is my second account in Gold:
Now, I'm building another pair of Orkans to replace the Punishers on the Lance. I reserve one slot of the Workshop to build Gekkos for a Patton (and also get the daily Ag from the WS bonus task). After that I will focus on Zeus and possibly an Exodus since I'm already at 3000 components.
Au and old WS bots will come through silver chests, so don't focus too much on getting them. Use what you already have and adapt your strategy around them.

Orkans before Tarans IMO. Tarans take skill and practice and there are other weapons other than Tarans that are more versatile in your future, ie, Scourge. For your Punishers, maybe think about a Punisher Galahad. You can stay out of Orkan range and do a lot of good with it. And as you get more practice, you can change it to a Taran/Magnum Galahad. Or, if you're lucky and get a Shredder or other root weapon, it'll still fit well with it.
