Upgraded a couple of armor kits from 3-4. WORST TRICK EVER: wait till players give up waiting for the upgrade boost and go ahead with â??grading (*like we do*), cut Ag drastically so Champs take all the Ag and Au out of expert and masters, depressing scores, earnings, and in the middle of the most expensive holiday of the year...THEN when everyoneâ??s resources are near minimum, *have* the upgrade boost on the worst possible weekend if the year ... so only those who donâ??t NEED reduced prices can rack up more gear and goodies. And the freshly-fattened get to sharpen their new gear on a freshly-FLATTENED opposition. ?fluffernutter?ing with the game IN REAL TIME is ensuring that THE GAME HAS NO RULES PLAYERS CAN RELY ON. â??Only way to win is not to playâ? Is upgrading armor worth the silver?

Problem is, I violated my own rule and upgraded my Merc from 9-10 on Thursday. Oh well. Was still able to bring a Corona from 9-11, another from 10-11, two Pulsars from 10-11, a Redeemer to 12, Calamity to 12, and possibly more but I'd have to think about it. I had premium in the beginning so the only grind grind was finishing the second Pulsar with ads to start the last Corona to 11 before it ran out. Gotta check out War Robots Forum Announcements more then. This got announced either on Wednesday or Thursday. Saved me from launching an expensive upgrade.

Is upgrading armor worth the silver? Like most things in life, IT DEPENDS. I now like armor buffs given there are pilots with mechanic skill and Last Stand which depends on the total HP level after modules, skills, etc. By raising the total HP of your bot, you will heal more HP per second and Last Stand will protect a higher number of HP when activated.

Standard Armor Kits only take 12mil silver to max out (from +2% to +5%), which later on ends up becoming a very cheap and worthwhile way of boosting your bots. For most bots you'd want one Level 1 Anticontrol, and one highly levelled (4-6) Last Stand (40 mil each level - 120mil to level 4), which only leaves one (or no) slots for Armor Kits or Nuclear Reactors. Some exceptions to Anticontrol and Last Stand might include all-Nuclear snipers and all-Armor Repair Unit Fenrirs, T-Falcons and Invaders, but people still like to run Anticontrol and Last Stand on them too. For 5,000 gold, the premium Heavy Armor Kits already start at a much higher +8%, but then cost 40mil for each extra level. If you have those, it may be far more worthwhile to spend that on other things first, like Last Stand upgrades. Personally, I now like to keep my Last Stands non-maxxed (but high enough to protect me) so I have a better chance of triggering Foolhardy Quartermaster Phase Shifts in this lag before my Last Stand gets activated.

I took my Tyr From lvl 8 to 9, and leveled newly won cryo weapons Glaciers and a Rime to about lvl 5 or 6. I also levelled an Avenger one more level in Mk2 from 4 to 5. I don't know exactly how much ag I spent but estimate around 20 to 25 million range. Mostly that was on Amazon. On Android I'm saving ag more or less to take a weapon to Mk2/12 for the first time!

In an effort to deal with addiction, and to a lesser degree, streamline outfitting, I sold off most of my belongings - including a Level 60 Alika Renner (Ao Jun Legendary Pilot) that was replaced with a level 40+ Adrian Chong. I made a lot of silver during this event, which was soon gone. THE COST:Almost everything I had in the game, including almost every bot (only keeping my Leeches, Phantoms, Ao Juns, Fenrirs, Behemoths, Raven and Mender), almost all my non-great weapons, any non-meta weapon I had more than 4 copies of, any remaining bot I had more than 5 copies of any bot, a lot of coin weapons and modules, any less-than-excellent components, almost all the Legendary Pilots I had, levelled or not (other than the ones for Leeches, Phantoms, Nicolas Wodanson, and Adrian Chongs), any remaining Pilot I had more than 5 copies of, used all my black market keys and special delivery coins, and made a lot more than a few in-game purchases too. THE GAIN:I evened out a few weapon's levels so they'd only take one weapon slot during outfitting (faster outfitting time). I upgraded my Last Stands a lot, even buying and upgrading a 4th, and I brought all my active Punisher T/Avengers all the way up to Level 12 MK2, adding two more Punisher T's to the mix. I also Level 9'd a Raven, Phantom and a second Leech. 3x Level 12 Avenger MK24x Level 12 Punisher T MK2* (*I already had one from my old days' Lancelot) Level 9 Phantom 2nd Level 9 Leech Level 9 Raven Level 4 Last Stand 2x Level 3 Last Stand 1x Level 8 Corona 1x Level 8 Pulsar 4x Level 5 Exodus (evening out their levels so they only take up one slot) Level 8 Ancile And I've begun upgrading my 4x Glaciers (currently at Level 5) now that the discount is over.

How did you upgrade that much premium stuff without spending Au to speed it up? The discount only lasted 3 days. multiple devices with account loaded. Ad limit on each device.
If only we could watch ads on the PC version of the game.

Personally, I now like to keep my Last Stands non-maxxed (but high enough to protect me) so I have a better chance of triggering Foolhardy Quartermaster Phase Shifts in this lag before my Last Stand gets activated. Thanks for the helpful feedback! The mods and pilot skills seem to benefit defensive bots more than attack. So heavy armor will give more % than heavy attack at same level. I would buy and max out all the basic ones for at least one hanger. Then when you get the AU, buy any LSTD and AC mods first, and level the LSTD first. Then go for BB and Fortifier, then Thermonuclear Reactor and Heavy Armor Kit mods last. I'd be careful how you stack the premium mods on 1 bot. I've seen so many different ways to stack a phantom, and they all work. 1 LSTD + 1 AC + 1 Thermonuclear Reactor, LSTD + AC + Heavy Armor Kit, LSTD + BB + Heavy Armor Kit, etc. In terms of stacking, LSTD and healing don't really mix, so i don't put them together. Mixing LSTD + BB is also kinda not that great, because it's easy to trigger both at the same time. Like run out with my phantom for CB, then use up the 20s of BB and then hit my LSTD before i can blink back. There's also a debate about whether BB or Heavy Armor Kit is better. I'm currently liking BB more, but mainly because it's cheaper and works great for suicide runs and when i get spawn raided. If ya play FFA, i can't help you since i don't play this mode. Might work good here too. I don't stack my blink + AC. There's only so many slots, and I'd rather just use blink if i get into trouble. Good for them if they can stop me. Heavy Armor Kit might work better for pure Tanks, which the Phantom is not despite the reputation on here. Like i said, it's so easy to run out there in my MK2 L3 phantom, and then lose all my health even with L5 BB and L1 Heavy Armor Kit. Heavy Armor Kit is better if you use Super Heal and can last a long time. But then it's very reliant on crack usage to make the most outta your Heavy Armor Kit. For spawn raids in champs, like i said, BB would come in handier than Heavy Armor Kit. Because your Heavy Armor Kit bot won't last long enough to heal more than once. My Bully relies on its aegis shield, so i use 1x Fortifier instead of Heavy Armor Kit like i would for other Tanks. It already lasts a very long time if i play it carefully, so i actually use attack mods on the other 2 slots. It still gets toasted by Ao Jun and lots of other OP bots.

I like Battle Born too.
I'm finding Last Stand / Anticontrol / Battle Born a rather perfect combination on my Ao Jun.
For the first 20 seconds of taking damage, a Level 1 Battle Born gives more than twice the durability of a max Level 6 (200mil silver) Heavy Armor Kit. At Level 6, Battle Born gives you more than 4x max Heavy Armor Kits for the first 20 seconds of taking damage.
Still good even if the effects of Battle Born are less effective against Titan weapons and corrosion.

What have you accomplished with 25% off? Not much my friend, not much. I propably could’ve accomplished more had I known it was in the works. I gave up on saving up silver and waiting for 25% events, because we have not had one in a long time and figured pixonic dropped that idea all together.

I was thinking about taking a basic bot like patton or vityaz and upgrading the hell out of it. 2light and 1 heavy weapon is decent firepower, I can see how it can dish some damage.

Upgrades I got done.
Doc from 5mk2 to 12mk2 ? This was my main objective of the month. Molot T L9 to L10? Another main objective of the month. Nashorns 2 of L5 to L6. Storm L6 to L7. Butch L10 to L12. This was a bot in waiting for next month and the next in line to get the 12mk2 treatment. I was able to save the most silver getting this one done.
Overall I'm happy with what I got accomplished. Mainly with the Doc and Butch. My Molot T Doc is complete. Stoked. Just needs a few more pilot skills.

I was thinking about taking a basic bot like patton or vityaz and upgrading the hell out of it. 2light and 1 heavy weapon is decent firepower, I can see how it can dish some damage. Well, the weapons are all at 6 or 8, depending whether they are old school or component. I am in E3, so while I face a lot of meta, most of my opposition is in the L7-10 range. I do use pilots for my Vits but... no modules. So it's all down to awareness, corner shooting and overconfident Reds who see a Vit and think it easy prey. This is the last match I played, on DC, iOS E3. A loss but I gave the Reds what for:
