A little voluntary challenge not intended to tank or otherwise ruin anybody's experience.
Make up a hangar entirely from builds and bots you don't normally use. Don't do this unless you have sufficiently levelled equipment to do it with.
my normal hangar is 9/9 approaching 10. Comprising plasma Gary, 2 plasma gals, ork ancilot and Stuka griff.
i am currently running plasma rhino, RDB griff, Zeus carnage, thunder carnage and piñata stalker. Most of this is between lev 7-9 bots and 8-9 weapons.
So far one loss, one win. But it is a nice challenge not having anything I am really used to to fall back on.

I normally use just about every bot I have, because I run a Heavy hangar, a Medium hangar, a Light hangar, a Russian Empire hangar, a German hangar, a TAC Hangar, and what I call F-troop with the dregs. But there are a few bots that don't make it into any of those. Let's see what I can come up with... it may take a bit... and it won't be pretty. But I'll run it in a few matches for laughs and see what happens. Edit: OK, that went as well as could be expected.  2 wins, 4 losses. And one of the wins was a clan tanking through D3. My best performance was in a loss on Canyon where I got 2 kills on 234k dam and 4 beacons. I came in 6th but outdamaged my opposite number. I tell you though it was less frustrating driving these bots than it was watching teammates just ignore beacons like they often do. |

Also, I'm pretty sure the mechanics of the leavers queue would land you in it for dumping not/weapon level. i don't know. But as i said, the intention of this is not tanking. It's trying different things. i don't think one level 6 taran would put me in the leavers queue. |

I tell you though it was less frustrating driving these bots than it was watching teammates just ignore beacons like they often do. you obviously already try everything. This is more for those who have a standard hangar which they may sub a bot out of now and then. I happen to have enough bits and pieces near my own level to not hobble myself in doing this, and i don't propose that anyone else does either. |

So... this morning I woke up to a genuine nightmare. To get out of that frame of mind... I tried this challenge lol.  Two wins followed, but with 120k and 200k damage averages! Oh it was sad! So then I put a little bit of familiarity back in...  and managed this:  All three were on Moon Map lol... Was fun! I think the Zeus Pin Vitz did the most consistent damage overall out of the 3 battles... but dang that was a hard hangar to do well with, period. On Moon Base, however, I was crippled! The second hangar was not bad at all... either way, I enjoyed it! Fun idea Moody! |
