Here are my thoughts on the Falcon. war-robots-forum.freeforums.net/thread/29336/play-falconTLDR, the Falcon, in most types of builds, is a Skirmisher. You really want to use it's fast ground speed as much as possible and use the Fangs Out only when you are sure of a kill. If you have decent brawling heavy weapons, then great. If not, then run it at MR. If you don't have any decent leveled heavies, then don't bother upgrading the Falcon. My Falcon is currently a Trimera, but since I'm getting bored of the build (yeah yeah, everyone can rejoice), I'm working towards a Viper/Exodus build, and the idea is to piss people off with the Viper to draw them in and then pounce from behind low cover with Exodus. have you tried Tridents on it? I've just started mucking around with one. I put Tempest/Trident/Trident. It's not levelled much but I think it's a very promising fun build.
Tridents splash damage is great.
After only a couple of runs I really want to play it more.

i Started fooling around witha a Viper(7)/Exodus(6)/Ember(5) it is showing some Promise.
Took out a Purse and a Bulwark in 1 Match. Let the Viper Spit-Ball them and then when their Health was dropping i Jumped on them with Exodus, Flamer. Full disclosure i Died right after the Bulwark Brawl Pilot had 2 Avengers and did not See a Spec/HydraDou¢he that finished me off, had about only around 7% health after Bulwark fight, so i was Easy Pickins right after.
it was a Fun Build and wanna to try another Ember,but that will take me a Few weeks to Aquire another Ember.

1)is this thing even worth upgrading ?? 2)what do i put on it??? 3)is it a better brawler or better with mid range gear? i hover between master 1 and champ. (1) Yes. It makes a very good beacon defender and can fill support roles as well. (2) I prefer Thunder or Avenger for the primary weapon and mid or long range support for the secondary weapons. (3) Both. I have 2 Falcons and I will generally run 1 Thunder/Avengers and 1 Avenger/Tempest. I find I seldom used the back-up weapons due to the risk, so I started only using mid/long range back-up weapons and only going "fangs out" when I knew they were out of range. This has worked the best for me. They become more versatile. You can bomb a beacon using resistance and brawling weapon and then range support when you've cleared the beacon. You can be a sniper that wins when people run up on you. Few builds have the same potential to fill both roles simultaneously. This is why Scourge/Spark are so useful. All brawling weapons is really only useful if you can ambush a single target, or safely "cook" your ability so it drops as you land(or sooner). All range leaves you open to brawlers(although 3 Avengers is fairly effective). |

1)is this thing even worth upgrading ?? 2)what do i put on it??? 3)is it a better brawler or better with mid range gear? i hover between master 1 and champ. Probably my fav recent bot. It does have a learning curve, take time to climb that curve while you level it up. I almost quit playing it, but stuck it out and usually pilot it well now. I still mistime jumps or underestimate my target on occasion and get reminded of how fragile it is w fangs out. I’ve been playing War Robots forever and had a bunch of heavy weapons from OE to experiment. Falcon works great as distance bot w 3 tempests, reload timing near perfect match to cool down timing. Also great w 3 tridents. I’m too impatient for trebuchet, but again the timing isn’t bad. Zeus not a great choice for rear weap, but great in front paired with dragoons which (AGAIN) match reload and cool down timing. Best brawling build imo is ember w 2 exodus. But that is a hella lot of upgrade time, so ember w thunder can do Ok as well. I’m trying ember w 2 temp and having fun with that combo. I have an OE ember that I took to Mk2, so very effective as a brawler even in champions. If I had to choose NE weapon I’d prob go w avenger for the shorter upgrade time. If you run avengers in the back, consider spooling them up before you jump for better burst damage. Fangs out while undercover and time your jumps carefully. |
