Hi Pilots,
Which of these rifles making direct damage to health of bot? Or bots just cutting armour's health?
Want to try something else instead Trebs and Tridents, probably Kwks.

Uhm... do you mean physical shields (britbots, rhino, ecus) by "armour"?
From what I know only splash damage goes trough (which doesnt make much sense, but well...^^).
So imho kwks wont work.
May be that I am totally wrong here, or simply misunderstood you;)

are there different types of metal armor? yes, i mean Rhinos, Brit family (Galahad, Lanc, Garr) when Kwk or Kang-Dae shoot to this bot - your health level stays same? only shield is damaged?

for example when you shoot using magnums and tarans to Galahad or Lancelot their armor get the impact first. For Galahad it's 200k, for Lancelot 120k. After armor will gone - real bot's health will be impacted.
what about KwK or Kang-Dae to these bots?

Those cannon hit the shield first, as well. The only Heavy weapon that damages in spite of the shield, is the Trident. Big splash damage area of effect. I assume it is supposed to go around the shield, rather than through it, as the splash damage does damage the shield at the same time.

I am pretty sure they only hit the shield/armour because they dont do splash damage.
From what I read its only the splash damage that goes through the physical shield, so that means rockets only.
But maybe a more experienced user can jump in here, for my experience with kwks and kangs is somewhat limited (read:non-existing)
Edit: tricky was faster ^^

Penetrating a shield is impossible. Shields must be broken or fired around. Hit from the side or rear, any gun (Kwk, Treb, Kang) will deal damage as normal to a shield bot. Hit the shield, no damage until the shield is broken. Shot placement is critical - firing at the front of a shielded bot, you won't do anything. Save your shot until they turn, having forgotten about your threat, and then hit them where it hurts.
I like the Kwk over the Kang, though Kang is better against small targets and at extreme ranges thanks to higher projectile speed. Kwk is a bombardment weapon with higher DPM but lower burst DPS than either of its counterparts; Kang is a one-shot, one-kill weapon. Treb is a hybrid bombardment/OSOK and also has a much larger damage zone than Kang or KWK, making it more effective against small targets.
