So this is my hangar atm:  The Leo is a gust-holder for my future pursuer, although he's not that bad. With the other bots I'm pretty happy (will see how it goes in expert). I mainly play domination. So, I will be getting the Inquisitor+Redeemer from the current event and now I'm debating if it makes sense to replace any of my bots: Leo will evolve into a pursuer. Falcon will never leave my main hangar. Raijin is a beast, tied with falcon as my best dmg dealer. Lancelot is pretty damn solid aswell, my nr.3. So, it's Rhino vs Inquisitor: Rhino can get across the battlefield really fast. I usually use him as 4th bot when the battle is almost over, so very handy ability. He also has that physical shield and he can mount my only lockdown weapon (Halo). Inquisitor is slow like a Leo but has the stealth jump. His firepower is higher than Rhino's. =Mobility+lockdown vs Stealth+higher dmg. What do you guys think? To me it looks like a win for the Rhino... not sure though. Might also replace the Lance but would need another Taran. o/ |

Just because your weapons, i'd replace the Lance. Ork and thunder work very nice on Inquisitor, much better than on a Lance. IMO, orks and thunders are best used when abushing on someone, Lance can't do that job, and Inquisitor is one of the best at it. Ork Avenger Inqi could work well also. You could also try Avenger Punisher Lance, it would be usefull on open maps, operating at 300+ m distance. Here, Rajin is the obvious looser, because Lances mobility (if it's an actual thing lol) shadows Rajins immobility. Avenger gust leo is also much better than thunder gust. And if we take Leos fat ?bum-bum? into account, it could make a good use of that Halo of yours, not to mention, halo gust Persuer is the thing you need, so getting used to that combo is better sooner than later  Play around, thats the beauty of this game |

Don't think of it as a permanent replacement. Just swap out bots as your mood fits. If you're starting to get more bots than slots, think about a second hangar deck.
What league are you in? What modes do you normally play? Lancelot and Inky have same slots, but they perform different roles depending on your load out. A low level Inky is a great RDB platform with Trident and Tulus - better than a Griffin I'd say. I just got my second Inky and that's what I'm running him as, which frees up my Raven to go into my mobile support hangar as a Taser/Shredder build.

OP... Just cook that Inquisitor to level 9 and then try the most likely options. Then decide. You seem to have a good grip on the game itself... preference is going to decide a lot from now on. What feels natural to you? Do you roll the Rhino out like a rodeo star? Does the Lance spend more time walking to the battle than fighting? What has the chance to bring you *into the zone* the most?
My personal feeling, as far as your hangar is now... would be to give the Inquisitor the Lance's weapons and then either re-outfit the Lance into a different configuration (Tarancilot, Avenger Scourge, Ember Scourge, Dragoon Scourge, or some other combo), or to just replace it altogether. The Lance has deffo gained a good bit of endurance lately, so it could deffo make sense to find a way to keep it... Plasma/energy is strong right now.
But, the Inquisitor has a definite place as a strong ambusher and flanker... and I would find a way to use it.
IMO, YMMV

try replacing lance and rhino one at a time and see yourself how your play goes. your hangar is missing a beacon runner except rhino. replacing rhino might hurt your beacon calture ability. replacing lance, you are not going to lose any firepower, just replace tankiness with stealth/jump. also, your hangar is missing a rocket build: inquiz will be a good orkan platform.

Thanks for your perspective guys. Good to know that I won't be wasting my (upgrade) time with the Inquisitor. I usually use my Lance 1st, mainly as center beacon capper/defender: Rush in, destroy the puny light bots, then get into cover. Hit rush, pop out, unload rockets, move back, repeat. Works really well on most maps. Guess the Inquisitor could pull that off, too... among other things. Well, I guess you're right, gotta level him a bit and see for myself if he fits into my game. Btw, just finished the "50 top 3 wins"... what a sick grind! Moved from d3 to high d1 in the process and earned 55mil silver.. xD no pain 80: I recently dropped my beacon runner (stalker or rogatka), because I had great trouble getting the top 3 wins. The result: My average dmg went from ~420k to ~580k and I moved from d3 to d1... so, no more little beacon runners for me  |

I would run your bots like this:
Falcon Avenger
Lancelot Avenger Punisher T
Inquisitor Avenger Taran (this is a surprisingly good build from my experience)
Rhino Gust Halo Orkan (locks down, tears down anciles for your Orkans)
5th slot depends on what you have in your hangar but just run Leo Thunder Gust Magnum if anything for now.

I can use a lvl 8 rhino well in expert II.
I cannot use a thorkalot nor a tarancilot at lvl 8 in expert II.
Ditch the lance for an inquisitor.
Rhino is good.
Rhino with halo orkans
Shredder/halo Tarans.
Magnum Tarans.
Gust orkans.
Expert 2 Taran Magnum rhino works well for me.
Expert 2 tarancilot nor thorkalot work for me.

Switched it up like this now:  I want to use that Inquisitor, so sadly the Raijin had to go. Playing alot of ffa atm and the spider is a bit too slow for that. I've put his Avengers on the Lance for a more mobile gunslinger and on the Inquisitor which works really well May replace the Rhino with another Lance so I can put the new Redeemer to use. Thanks for the advice guys, gave me some good ideas. |

I could never get the Rhino to work well for me, so I'd replace that one. I'm still using my Lancelot. Raijin should be replaced next.

Will try, thanks. However, I'm pretty crap with aiming the plasma guns, so I guess they will work best for me on something slow and non-jumping |
