Please share. im running orkan with pun t at the moment cause dont have second orkan What league are you in? I was going to say 2 Scourge or 2 Vortex until you said you're using a punisher T. Do you have 2 Tulumbas? I think that would be better than what you're using. |

Just keep chugging along til you get the second Orkan. Do Tulus until then.

Scourge/Taran and scourge/punisher combo worked fine for me up until expert league. Scourge helped with targeting when up in air above others, also it does good damage itself, the other weapon I treated as main weapon (punT when playing more carefully at medium range, taran when jumping straight in close combat, choice depends on league and enemies you fight).

Damn, Rogatka... gotta play some battles with him again.
Tarans or Orkans work pretty well.

I put an Orkan Rogatka into my second hangar because of this thread. I killed a low hp Zeus Raijin with it at E beacon in Dead City this morning (it's 12:20pm here). ?

Rogatka is a great trainer for using Orkans and Tarans. They're the standard load out for Rogatka, really.
Unless you can get a pair of Scourges on that baby.
Also Tulumbas, as mentioned, and I will propose that Punisher Ts are good fun, too.
You're at the stage where you want to master the dynamics of all the major medium weapons both so you know how to use them and how to avoid them.
Good idea is to start long range and work your way in...e.g. you start with Tulumbas / Punishers then as your piloting skills improve you move to Taran / Orkan and learn how to navigate attack ranges.
Just no Hydras.

Tarans was my weapon of choice but the tulu’s should be great for the jump and heavy hit attack!

I tried Tarans on the Rog and couldn't handle the aiming while jumping. I still struggle with the Tarans. A bot can be locked down 100m in front of me and I miss most shots. ?

Scourge is probably best way to go

I just hit masters and had to take out my Orkan rog, not enough firepower. However, my Taran rog is still crushing it. It specializes at tormenting Orkan spectres.

Rogatka's ability mate perfectly with Ions playing peek-a-poo.

I enjoyed a Taran Rog up to Master league, although that was quite some time ago. These days it will be difficult to run one, unless there are more Trident and Tulu in the battle filed due to the most recent changes.
Example:

EDIT: watching this again, it feels so old  are there people still using DB Griifins? Ah good times ... |

Tulu-Orkan Rog was pretty fun, IIRC. Start with Tulu at 500m, then step it up with Orkans once within 300m. Also great bot to learn how to use individual weapons, and how to use range, and how to agitate reds with that Tulu into making a mistake, and how to corner shoot. You gotta play it like Orkan Rog (because damage of single Tulu isn't enough to make much actual damage at >300m), just with reduced power but a few extra tricks up its sleeve (range and larger splash open up tactical options).
