As a fun side project, I'm working on an "old-school" style hangar, partly for variety and partly for practice relying on skill instead of gimmicks. Here's the hangar as it currently stands:  Trying to decide what to do with the Scavenger Griffin. Never been a big fan of the RDB setup (found it underwhelming in terms of damage) but it might be worthwhile at max level. I can also run the classic DB/PDB builds, but with defensive abilities being so abundant, those seem risky. So for now I'm thinking Leadhose, or, if I decide to replace Inquisitor in my main lineup (unlikely) I can run Taser. Thought? Any other suggestions for a Bot to use in place of Griffin? I'm thinking possibly Rhino, Fujin, Lance, or even Haechi, but I currently have an embarrassing shortage of Medium weapons... [Edit] Storm on Rog has been replaced with a second Wasp. |

I run a L7 (atm) Corona/Gust Gary.....amazing bot despite the age of magic......
My gunship is coming along...Tempest/Molot Natty, ready to eat up Titan hit points.
Nori Patton is a nice troll.......
Have fun!

Noricum Patton. damage isn't much, but once people's magic powers are off and they're hiding in the bushes, it gives them a hell of a shock. Seeing an Ares, Ao Jun, or Leech lose up to half their health from a good strike gives a warm fuzzy feeling.

Rhino isn't a bad option... But I, personally, would go Shotty on it, as well.
Now... what I don't see in your hangar that I run regularly is the Lance... Ghost and Armor pilot skills and BOOYAH you got a damned decent legacy bot.
I mixed my Fun hangar in with my main hangar. Decided I needed to just get what I like to play all up to 10 and then reassess... and that Lance is in there. It's pretty damned durable and with either a PDB, Leadhose, or Taser setup, it is pretty mean. I plan on trying Glacier + Storms pretty soon... as well.

I have a Nori Patton already, but no interest in using it Nori Patton isn’t really my idea of fun, either, so I changed things up so I will play long maps with this.....  TBH, I want another Titan so this hangar has one. I am also most likely put Spark back on Gary, it just rocks! A real suprise for a moduleless bot! For small brawl maps, I run.....  I consider both fun, but my old school hangar is a hoot! I am hoping the Leo will stand long enough to drop Titans once the gunship is leveled...... |

Thinking about a Viper/Shredder Leo for good times, but I only have 2 Shredders are they're currently enjoying pride of place on Tyr.

I'm having fun with a Storm/Rime Gary at the moment but then I have fun with a Nashorn Ao Jun.
Molot T Doc for near constant lead. With Lockdown Ammo even betterer. Give those reds the 「dookie」s at 800 mtrs.
Calamity/Spark Vityaz I could go on.

Kudos for the Ssack, Rog and Carny....my favorites...give the taser Gary a shot, I keep one loaded for Canyon and Dread. Running weaker bots is not just fun, it improves your overall skills and abilities IMO

Running weaker bots is not just fun, it improves your overall skills and abilities IMO Exactly, and when you do eventually run a meta bot you're better in it as you know there weaknesses more. But the fun you get taking down a sorcery bot with a basic keeps me alive to no end. |

Give bolt a try. Little speedy demon. Cheap fun. Not much health so you gotta be on your toes when playing it.

I love the lead hose build just because it’s so fun to run. Unfortunately the griffin won’t last long at the closer ranges required to do solid damage with puns. Maybe if you run 40 PC healer module it’d last long enough to do good damage. What about shredder pun T? With the increased accuracy pilot skill on the pun t it could be a real threat and fun to run. Going to take very good pilot skills and patience to only attack when optimal conditions. Other problem with that build is it’s gonna burn PCs. But I hoard them too much so don’t listen to me. Hovering around 100,000
Wish the grifff would get a 20 kph buff

For the Scavenger Griffin, use 4 different weapons with equivalent ranges. Gives it the 'scavenged' feel without messing with effectiveness too much. Think I got a Yan-di Corona, Igniter, Blaze, and Pinata on mine.
