for the Au Jun nerf. Can't come soon enough. I've gone and gotten my league too high and it is a flaming, flying, phase-shifted circle jerk in stealth mode.
That is all

That nerf can wait a few more months, IMO....YMMV
Oh, did I mention I just pulled Ao Jun from Superchest? No? Apologies.........

That is all I’m leveling a 2nd Ao Jun atm (with dual Exos, one of em 12Mk2!!) with the specific task of shooting Leeches that are tethered. I’m gonna pour so much freaking gas on the leech fire, you’ll see it from orbit. I’m only half joking.

I can’t wait for whatever OP Phildo that replaces Leech to get nerfed.
And the Leech replacement replacement, that one definitely deserves the nerf....in fact, I’ll fly to Moscow to attend the nerfing ceremony at mothership Pixonic.

It's kinda funny that almost half of the revenue is from the U.S., given it's for Russia Anyway, an AoJ nerf at this point would just be directed at the (mostly) non-paying (or those that refuse to pay exorbitant amounts) players. The impulsive spenders that dish out 100's a day/week, they already enjoyed it and are already on the next ones.

They won't nerf Ao Jun until after they release the titan bots.

In defense of Ao Jun it is totally easy to kill on the ground. It makes up for it's supremecy in the air.
The only problem I have is all the pilots using Phase Shift on Ao Jun. Ability. Phase Shift. Ability. Phase Shift. Ability. Last Stand.
I run an Ao Jun but I don't think I'd use Phase Shift on it or Ares. It kinda feels like cheating.

Try Quantum Radar its magic....... Or wait until they hit the ground.
Your situational awareness is the problem not the bots. I always know what enemy bots are on the field and where they are at, then plan accordingly. If I know a Ao Jun is around I think about the angles and cover and avoid 90% plus of the damage most the time. Then after they waste their ability pounce.
If having issues with them or more than a few out I run my Ares which is my designated anti Ao Jun bot. Yes I plan for them! I run Quantum Radar with the Module time extension and fast lock pilot skills. The scourge, shredder combo usually do the trick and if not the Ares ability will!
You pick up on the "I have a bot to counter it" If something is a problem you need a counter this game is all about rock paper scissors. It may suck but just running what you want will end in lots of pain vs running what is needed.
I always have kept a variety of bots and weapons and do not overload on what is hot now, then when the nerfs come I do not have big issues trying to adapt.
Just my thoughts and opinions on this subject, like A-holes we all have them so I am not claiming to be correct just my take.
Good luck and happy hunting!

OP, I dont think its that hard to work out the nerfing of it. Just figure out the time difference between when the Jun was released in comparison to the Ares and add that time onto the first Ares nerf. your Jun nerfing is about at that time or the next update when that time expires. Not sure if the Quantum Radar improvement was an actual first nerf volley. Either way, as Loganspawn said, situational awareness is the key. I dont even use Quantum Radar and dont really fear AJs. Yes they can get you and get you consistently but so can a phantom or leach. The P2W crowd is already transitioning to the new OP bots. The Jun is soon to be history along with the Ares. Your response options to the new OP bots will just be reduced when the Jun is nerfed. Snowball Jun is a good thing if you cant pay for leeches.

Just my thoughts and opinions on this subject, like A-holes we all have them so I am not claiming to be correct just my take. True everyone has an A-hole but some players seem to have multiple A-holes, one could say that they have a hat full of A-holes. Not uncommon to see 4 bots on the filed at a time with the flying (third) eye ball roaming the skies. Situational awareness cannot help you when there are flying eyeballs taxiing one after another like they are taking off at an airport. I suppose at this point in time I'd rather see the eyeballs than a hat full of mini A-holes (Phantom) on the battlefield.

Didn’t Ao Jun release coincide with War Robots availability in China (not to mention the names for the dragons)? Nerf cycle might be different/longer for this bot due to potential impact in such a large market.

Just my thoughts and opinions on this subject, like A-holes we all have them so I am not claiming to be correct just my take. Good luck and happy hunting! Just to add here...if AJs are present...run with a wingman (or BE the wingman).... As an admitted dufus...I run by myself a LOT. I'm Ao Jun fodder. It's not a deliberate plan to draw off AJs (no matter if it works). AMAZINGLY...if an Ao Jun has to attack 2 targets, he's less effective against either one. One bot with good mid/long range weps can be wingman to 2-3 of his teammates. Force the Ao Jun to drop back early or face 2 bots with angles of fire without his stealth and 1/3 less firepower. Again, this is situational awareness....I suck at it half the time. (But I'm improved from sucking 75% of the time) Off the subject...but always worth saying..... DON'T SHOOT PURPLE.

I built an Ao Jun as soon as it was availble in the WS. Leveled to Mk1 L9 with a pair of Mk1 L12 Avengers. Ran it with Quantum Radar for quite awhile. I would get great satisfaction launching my Ao Jun to give chase to a Red Ao Jun and shoot it out of the sky. I recently put Shield Breaker on it and use it to take down the Greek Bots. Not sure why pix would nerf the Ao Jun. If it lands in the "wrong place" it is easy to kill.

I’ve lost count of how many times they’ve done this in the past, why would this time be any different?

Then they will nerf a few Bots so the new thing seems even more shiny.

It’s a story about Stan selling Phildos to Sneeches, and then nerfing the old Phildos to sell newer Phildos, and adding other pay to win crap to drive Phildo sales (events, loot boxes, modules, premium this and that, boosters, crack etc.).

It's all these other bots that are the problem. Just use the one other completely broken bot to counter the Ao Jun and/or also use the Ao Jun. This is proof that the Ao Jun is fine and balanced.

Try Quantum Radar its magic....... Or wait until they hit the ground. ... Just my thoughts and opinions on this subject, like A-holes we all have them so I am not claiming to be correct just my take. Good luck and happy hunting! It was getting harder and harder to use Quantum Radar, especially on Au juns. Good Ao Jun players start popping health pills and/or fly in way that makes them hard to him. I got to a point where I stopped using Quantum Radar on Ao Juns because of the diminishing returns. Of course, waiting for Ao jun to land is always sound strategy but many now get PMS when they land... I'm sorry, I meant to say they use PS. Seems people have green pills in infinite supply. So my a-hole says... sorry, I mean to say that my opinion is Ao Jun would be still be ok bot if not for the in-build weapons- same thing with Ares. But the nerf is definitely coming, heck, probably next year if you write "Ao jun" on the forum people will tell you to seek medical attention if your junk is hurting.

As anybody who has played this game a while knows everything becomes obsolete one way or the other. I refused to max more than one bot or four weapons of the same kind for this reason.That is why I just counter things the best I can and move on. All the gnashing of teeth and crying on the forums doesn't change a thing and sure as dookie doesn't help me win. Happy hunting and good luck!

I get it, the game changes and you are making the best of it. That's great. But this is 'rants' section and the point is simple: to point out to Pixonic that there are things wrong with the game. And I know it's beating the dead horse, but I think there's a value in driving the point across as long as things are wrong. You might be good at adopting but I think Pixonic is not so good at adopting to declining player numbers.

In racing games slow production cars are often competitive against high end exotics even though this does not reflect reality. Fiction is used to create a fun and varied gaming experience even if it means that Sherman tank can take out and Abrams or a model t can compete with a Honda Civic. Pixonic isn't in the busines of creating balanced content and instead is actively selling power disparity with bots like the Ao Jun.

If you cant deal with the Ao Jun just quit, there I said it happy? you want to keep beating this dead horse? If you cant build your own Ao Jun then you suck, if you cant figure out how to avoid them and wait for them to land then you suck, if you cant run a dedicated bot with Quantum Radar you suck. You suck because all you do is focus on problems instead of solutions and when given them you cry NO WAY! That is my take. There are allot bigger problems with this game than the Ao Jun get a grip. Please flame away tell me how wrong I am and spout some prophetic words. I will read them but I will not answer you in this thread again. Bye now.
