If a leech is tethered to me and you knowingly attack the leech, and in return kill me. Im done. I'll sit and watch reds destroy you in return and cheer them on. You will get no gold because you dont deserve it. I just dont care anymore ?

Although I understand how you feel about this, I have changed on this one as killing a leech is so necessary I get sometimes it happens while I’m tethered.....
TBH, it really is no big deal as most leeches that are taking my bots down are MK2 level, and kill me no matter what. I have yet to be bothered by a low leveled leech.
Being in M2, I do not see multiple leech tethers very often......but when I see a leech, like Ao Jun and Ares it is a top priority target!
I also give my teammates a bit of a break as a bunch of Randos usually means chaos anyways!

When i see a leech, tethered or not, but low on health, I go for it. Please do likewise when tethered to me. Leeches need to be killed asap.
To a lesser extend this applies to all OP bots

I have tried to be understanding but it's getting ridiculous. Yes.....leeches kill so fast, and with PS and Last Stand one must shoot when one can. Most still jack up Ares retribution by shooting purple, and Ares is almost a year old.....just go with it, and sometimes I find my teammate who shot “my” leech tethered.....and I’ll unleash Ao Jun to say hi to said teammate, lol

On the one hand, I know how you feel. On the other hand, leeches must die - and canâ??t die fast enough no matter what.
When I get tethered, if Iâ??m locked down (almost always) Iâ??ll blast the ?neat-o? leech myself: if thatâ??s the kind of game Iâ??m in, then balls to the wall, yâ??all...lean IN!
Between Leech, Ao Jun and Titans, it looks like weâ??re headed for a massive dump, so blame Pix and leech-runners - not your teammates.

There is no point in shooting a DR'd leech unless you have DoT or ability damage.
10% of whatever you're doing isn't 「dookie」. Stop it.

If you're in a Titan not shooting a Leech makes no sense, you negate its resistance and if they're not paying enough attention you can kill them or bring them to last stand.
As for other situations? If I'm in my Leech I always shoot them, then when ability ends phase shift, you get them down to last stand, usually if they phase shift you wait a couple seconds, ideally I use phase shift again before my last stand triggers but if not I do it afterwards, Now you might say that uses a lot of power cells, but I have over 140k so honestly I don't care.
For other bots it honestly depends, if one is going to kill me regardless I'll spray it as much as possible, in other situations it normally comes down to how much HP it has and how many people are shooting it, if you have enough firepower to take it down or put a significant dent in it someone is going to have to die for it, however frustrating that is.
They really need to get rid of damage through walls and reduce the range of the tether, then honestly I wouldn't have a problem with the bot.

Leech is going to kill you anyway so I always shoot Leech, even when Iâm tethered. Itâll drop me to last stand in an instant anyway, so I get 4? seconds of impunity to shoot the 「dookie」 out of it. Sorry fella, they have to be taken out - you wonât win either if you donât. Time for that daily poop?

If a Red is in my field of view and in range of my weapons I will shoot at it. Don't care what bot it is.... Green cross hairs in the red box, pull the trigger Nd see the red X light up. That means I am scoring points. The more points I score the more silver I get.

The tether is, by far, the most miserable, soul destroying garbage that Pix has ever dreamt up; at least you can choose to be able to shoot at a Jun. Double phase shift is the sh1t flavoured icing on the turd cake.

Not worth trying to finish off a low health tethered leach, I've tried a few and just ended up killing my blue friend. DR on those things is ridiculous

I would gladly ditch the tether if I can keep the speed and damage resistance, possibly just make the tether do something else like corrosion damage. 4 mediums aren't really as much of a problem if we consider ares basically has the firepower of 3-3.5 mediums plus retribution.

My puni Ares (punis 9) chews up Titans and spits out a heap of metal. From 500M with both relevant skills. For those 4 seconds there is no more powerful bot, SB'd or not. I actually like the bot now because it seems fragile as ã??fluffernutterã?Â, but it's quick without the ability. IDK in my hands it's deadly. I don't hide like a ?female dog?. It's always my last spawn and I just run in guns blazing like IDGAF. I did the math. With lv9 punis and lv8 Ares, It does 160k-200k in those 4 seconds (variable if you get absorbed) The general DPS is 27600, but with maxed sharpshooter it's stupid accurate out of range of cryo/shotty/plasma Which finally leads me to this question... why don't more leeches run punis? They could easily get 50k DPS leveled up. 「smart person」es

Yeah, that's fair enough. The increase in power makes some sense in this game. The developers have to eat I guess, and they clearly don't appear to have any other tricks for stimulating demand. I think that you have put your finger on it really. Leech seems really fun to play, I don't blame the people that run them one bit. It's troubling that Pix has worked out that people don't like ability cooldowns, some sort of horrific Jun type bot with an 8 second cooldown seems inevitable now.

It is what it is. For me though if I'm tethered just shoot the dog 「total babe」 of a thing because I will be.

My Leech is incredibly fun to play, especially with the Thomas Mindread I got, sprinting around, getting under sheilds, tearing bots apart with max storms, I'm incredibly aggressive with mine, just as I am with my Halo Scourge Ares which cuts Ao Jun down with quantum radar like a charm. I think the tether needs reworked, not going through walls at the very least, but other than that it's really not that crazy of a bot especially now that titans can cut them down and everyone has a titan, one of the reasons it is so crazy is last stand, anti control, and phase shift plus foolhardy quartermaster, Which I also use. However those same things are available to use on other meta bots as well.

Yeah I hate that too. My full health Hades got killed that way. I see a Leech I go to safety till his ability runs out. What the fools do in my team? 「fluffernutter」ing attack it. I have not played since about a week when I ranted about the exact same 「dookie」. 「fluffernutter」 blues.

Situational. If it’s close to Last Stand or close to death, sorry but I’m shooting it tethered or not.

i shoot no matter what even when i'am Tethered and my teammates are welcomed to do so too. unless he Tethers me with no way to shoot Me, then i Go for the nearest Red.
Leech is the Newest Abomanation on the Game they should at least get Rid of DR or make on 2 weapons usable when using the Tether with at least DMg or Speed reduced by 35-40%.
i'am a Leech owner, Won one shortly after it came out got to lvl7 and decided didn't like it an it's not for Me. now i won't sell it cause i'am a Collector of Game Bots.

Sometimes it's the only time to hit skilled double-phase-shifting Leech players, and an Ao Jun grinding them away at the loss of a teammate can save the rest of that player's bots and the team too. It can also make some of them do things like trigger Phase Shift or stop attacking and run.
Also, it's not easy to tell who is Leeching who, or which bots are Repulsing. And it's fine it they're Leeching a tank such as Fenrir or T-Falcon.
Unlike Ares which visibly showed people when it was shielding itself, a Leech's repulse state can be unknown, especially on e.g. small phones in glaring sunlight.
Also, sometimes when I play in bed, I'm too tired to walk around without hitting and getting stuck on walls.
If my (sleep deprived) trigger happy drunken-style Ao Jun or wall-caught Fenrir somehow managed to burn away at Leech that was tethered to you during that time, I'm sorry.
BUT EVERYTHING MUST DIE.

I got my first tether kill today. I had a carnage pounding me while his inquisitor buddy tried to stealth jump away from my tether.... It failed.

I have always thought that they should make passive modules to counter specific things: make tether effect less effective/dragons breath less damaging. With how common dragons are now, it’s hard to get anywhere without seeing 4+ a game. Same with leeches. At least dragons take skill to fly...
