Love the idea of a 4 hardpoint bot.
Do you have one of these bots, are they worth the gold?
love to hear your thoughts on which etc..

I don't know but I really want a Jesse. It Probably isn't a competitive bot, but I like it. It just seems like a fun option for Aphids and a beacon capper. I don't really think it is worth the AU though. I am pretty close to getting my 1st Lance so I will keep saving my AU for that. 3500 for a Jesse would just set me back too far.
I think I remember someone saying a Hydra Doc has almost the same DPM as a RDB Griffin, but with a few major advantages. Again probably not worth the AU.
I dunno I suppose one of those end game user who is stacked on AU they might be worth it. I have never used any of them though .. .so your guess is as good as mine

3500/7000/14000 Au is pretty steep and rather hard to justify.
I would not dare to say that Jesse is 40% better than Galahad.
I would not consider Doc 40% better than Lance.
And above all I cannot see how Butch is priced at the level of almost 3 Furies / Lancelots

I have a Doc. DO NOT spend gold on this bot. I won it during the last event. Its a fun support bot, using 4 tulumbas on it. Buy a lancelot and a Galahad instead.

Considering it but very high price to pay even with the shoulder slung weapons which reminds me of my mechs in Armored Core V. The silver and plus meta seems to be increasingly favoring shields, and you got those Dash robots around the corner, one of which has an energy shield and the other a physical shield.
Saving new content for events only isn't a good business idea to begin with, due to the ever changing meta.

Jesse as an Aphid platform was super fun during the test server! Despite not needing to spend 3500 gold, I immediately scooped one up.
Trebuchet Butch is the one I'm chasing after.

If you look for cost-effectiveness, I'll say NO, they do not worth that pile of gold. But you look for FUN, I'll say YES!! Gunlingers give a new play style on weapons combo, high burst, etc. I really enjoy playing my new Tulu-Doc =D |

I normally don't play sniper but there is just something so fun about quad treb double 「dookie」s, the only way to treb. That being said, bI am going to wait till the dash is out and pushes the price down.

Just now won a Jesse out of a Superchest, after winning an Aphid & 2 Orkans out of the preceding 1Ks. For Jesse - one Aphid down, three to go.

And if the test server videos are any indicator the Dash Bots may well be an endgame option. A big cha-ching for Pix. |

My team got wrecked in one match where the reds had a level 9 Butch with four level 11 Trebuchets. It was on Powerplant, and he climbed the hill on the far side and dealt massive damage to anyone in his line of sight. He practically stayed in that one bot the entire game and still ended up first on the winning team. The problem is, I don't believe 14,000 Au is worth it; if you get it in a chest, good for you. Also, leveling four Trebs to 11 isn't cheap either.

Really really wanting to hear the testaments of Jesse owners out there as I'm still keen to get one. It looks super fun. I have all the Orkans and Aphids I need for the time being and an Ancilot is.... not on the shopping list. Have a bit over 3k AU and am thinking of blowing it on the Jesse towards the end of the event if I don't get lucky by then.

That lil bugger is a very fun bot,but I prefer aphids the best.Very prone to plasma and hydras as any other light bot,but with skill and the right load out,you can deal good to massive damage plus top beacons if played right while surviving the whole battle.But I can't say it's better than gareth,I just play tag until I blow him up.Down side is he's squishyness,but overall a decent bot with an overpriced price tag. Edit,gareth is a light brawler,jesse is support and hit n runner. |

On the last test server Pixonic buffed the speed of every Medium and Heavy bot.... bad idea, that will make light bots even more useless in higher tiers... I agree, light/mediums need love, not heavies. Even at 6/6 now a griffin is a better option than Vity/Golem/Boa. Heavies shouldn't be superior until they reach level 9 or so. I would like to see the upgrade scale differently for heavies. They should get the majority of their speed/HP bumps AFTER level 9. This is easily done by compounding the values at each level so the % gain at later levels is much more than L6-9. |

Mediums and lights should be just as viable in every team as heavies are. |
