Every time I see these bots on my team I let out an "oh no". Everyone seems to forget that they have two heavy weapons they can activate. They just run around firing the single heavy weapon until they die. They might as well not be equipped with the two weapons on their back. They NEVER use them  |

They NEVER use them Do you know about the traditionalist skill? Online sarcasm can be hard to read. From the wiki... A Falcon with the traditionalist skill has a completely different playstyle. It sacrifices 2 of its heavy weapons and its jump for a dramatic (up to 50%) increase in durability, turning Falcon into a slightly slower Schutze-like robot. This means that a lvl 12, mk2 Falcon will effectively have a maximum durability of 837k without modules. If you were to repair the maximum amount of durability possible, use two max level heavy armor kit modules, you end up with an effective durability of 1,868,184. |

I agree. Zombies I say. Zombies.
I love my non-traditionalists falcon. No way I would ruin it running that mess.

That's all well and good.Only I don't think they are running that method. They are just forgetting that they even HAVE two weapons on their back. They die trying to fight enemy bots using just one weapon. If they are using that traditionalist skill, it's a total FAIL.

Read more: war-robots-forum.freeforums.net/thread/35936/people-learn-play-falcons?page=1#ixzz68hM5ljYJGetting a few Reds attacking one T-Fal, changes the whole game, especially playing BR. Today, I caught the attention of 2 bots attacking me in my T-Fal on their beacon in Valley map. They probably spent more than a minute trying to take me down. That amount of time caused them to lose the game. Then in another round of BR in ShenZhen map, I capped our home beacon, went straight to centre beacon and then finally straight into the Reds home beacon. Guess what? Half the team were just attacking my T-Fal, (Tyr, Bulwark, Fury, I rmb). Needless to say, in that tme span, my team mates capped the 4th beacon. Game over in less than 5 minutes. So...it is all about tactics. |

And I do run the normal Falcon when I get bored with the T-Fal. 2 in 1 bot, great value.

They just run around firing the single heavy weapon until they die. They might as well not be equipped with the two weapons on their back. They NEVER use them Let me preface this by saying I can only go by my experience of both playing as a TFal and playing with them on my team and on the Reds' team.
Use them. Let them be your distraction, meat-shield, harasser, etc... it's their job. The single weapon, especially in lower leagues, is not their only purpose... That Damage Resistance is*.
IF they are only using one weapon, it's because it's a T-Falcon. That, or it's too dangerous to use all three weapons at that time... Normal Falcons have to be VERY aware of what is going on around them and there are some battles where their DR is more important than their firepower.
IMO, YMMV
*Although with all the DR mitigation from Titans now, I would expect to see more of the normal Falcon as a matter of course... but that takes a lot more skill than the T Fal, so it may take a bit to catch on in the current Magic Mech META where the built-in Top Bots' advantages make the difference for most peeps.)

It looks like you fell for the banana in the tailpipe LOL Maybe... it was hard to tell so I just went with the advice route... just in case. If he was trolling, maybe it'll help some lurker... *shrugs*
