Had me a wee … one-sided … knife fight yesterday on the valley map. These three reds had been camping on one of the ramps and were slaughtering us pretty good. When all were shooting left... I managed to slide up from the right .... killed em all before they knew what hit em! Weee!!! lol
'Course, I had to use all my scoots to get over there and was blasted when they all respawned but it was so worth it! SuckerPunch Ninja, fully assimilated!

I actually have Pinatas in the lows pinitas are amoung the worst weapons in the game, as agreed upon by many members of this forums, so get gusts, sparks, punishers (if you are going cheap) blaze or even sting if you need to but try to get something other than pinitas.

I actually have Pinatas in the lows Don’t waste your resources upgrading Pinatas, they are currently, and have always been crap IMO. (MAYBE they were good 3 years ago) Gusts and Halos are your friends if you’re gonna go CQC Ninja styley

For some reason, Pix hit the Pinatas with the nerf stick repeatedly, like 4 out of 5 updates. It used to be fun, but useless now.

IDK, they are not a knock-out weapon but are fine for what I do with them: harassment/finishing off damaged bots. Gusts/Halos are a lot better generally but 1) you need to commit to an engagement 2) can't spash around corners and 3) I need the shotguns I have for my Invader

Pinata Exodus is actually fun for me and I do good with it. It is a different way of engaging than other load-outs, though it is by no means comparable to other weapon performance.

Also they kill people VERY fast so you don't really have to commit to anything but they do allow that option should the need arise, plus they hit harder than pinitas do within the same time as pinitas unload

What is the most enemy striders you have taken out in your own strider? I just took out 3 and was still walking around with all 3 weapons and at full speed so... yeah they weren't very good. Wish I could have told them to hook up woith sucker punch but they must not want to otherwise we would have avoided each other

That day there just happened to be 3 running for center and I picked them off 1 by 1 before waltzing knto and capping the beacon

Like the time I dashed through a tunnel wall on the Hangar map and no one could shoot me but i could shoot them. But i felt bad and I walked back out of the wall and continued normal game play.

Couple of hours ago I had my first face-to-face with a Loki. That thing is so annoying! Like a gnat you can get close to but not quite close enough to smash! Of course, now I want one! It's not nearly as 「deteriorated bum-bum」 or cool as my Scooter ... but... it does have the same ... sneak up and whack you in the back of da head ... quality that I love so much!

Greetings fellow apostles of SuckerPunch
As the Loki becomes more popular- it is your duty as a Strider pil...err...driver to take the initiative and eliminate this pestilence with extreme prejudice. Among the MANY amazing attributes of our Striders is our LOW SLUNG WEAPONS which makes us THE IDEAL COUNTER to the Loki.
My copious experimenting has shown that a well timed dash INTO OR ACROSS THE FACE with some shotguns or Exo will indeed kill the Loki WHILE HE IS IN STEALTH. Ideal conditions are 1 V 1 at a distant beacon where you can experiment a bit with different approaches. If possible, try to be a bit lower in elevation than the Loki and use ONE well executed dash for speed blasting at an angle while you are in motion. Most times it takes me a couple attempts but my success rate has been climbing.
The Strider is the PERFECT ANTIDOTE to the Loki when played with cunning and creativity. Don’t be afraid to get freaky because STRIDER SUCKERPUNCH REWARDS FREAKY!
Praise be to SuckerPunch.....carry on.......

SHOTGUNS... def the answer to any of those buggers in stealth. It's fun to watch them flee ... while they're still in stealth mode... as if they didn't know they weren't actually invisible!!! lol
More SHOTGUNS... def need more SHOTGUNS for my Scooter Supreme and soon to have Spectre Sublime!!

Modules: - Battle Borne - Anti Control - Lock Down Ammo Load-out: Mainly, I want to praise here the combination of the three modules and 1 ECU as a great alternative to the ECU Hellburner, or in its own hangar separate from an ECU Hellburner. Why? After extensive runs it is clear that a runner for center beacon has much higher probability of combat longevity and ability to secure the beacon by locking down approaching beacon contestants before they reach the circle, higher immunity to damage due to Battle Borne, reduced probability of being rooted yourself before reaching the circle due to Anti-Control, and your ECU especially stops massive incoming damage from all sorts of weapons. Then, having one side weapon and top weapon, you can go on to seriously damaging and killing multiple enemies. Really, I cannot praise it enough as a build that definitely out-performs all other Strider builds specifically in the context of grabbing the center beacons in particular in Rome, Yamantau, Moon, Shenzhen, and Carrier. It also does very well grabbing side beacons that are overly exposed to initial enemy fire, such as those on Valley. The next update about to drop will also include an improved Battle Borne, so this will be perfect for equipping on this build. Lastly, I will just say that despite grabbing center or an exposed side beacon, this Strider build more oft than not lives quite a while and even gets the occasional godlike, so dont underestimate its capacity. Well, I also have an Mk2 Strider with armor expert trained, so that helps durability, however, what also contributes greatly to durability is skillful preparing and using of dashes, the directions of your dash and positioning, and the continued use of your ECU with skill instead of just taking tons of frontal shots like a real 「smart person」

Hey ѻﻭɼﻉ , this might just be my 2nd mk2 bot. I ran an ECU variant for a while, until BB called me a girly-man or girlscout or brownie...mmmm, brownies. Where was I? Mk2 ECU with that knight skill is redonkadonk damage sponging. Idk, maybe I’ll just run my lvl 9 strider #2 whild #1 is in the mk2 upgrade queue, get it in there faster. But Lockdown Ammo mod AND LD weapons? Not too redundant?

When the combo doesnt work I have taken note and checked and they had AC equipped ??
