yep, the polls are back. Which do you reckon is the most efficient MRS bot in silver?

Pin Patton no doubt! Only downside is toaster syndrome if you stay exposed for return fire.

For those keeping score at home, what are the desired qualities for an MRS bot?

Zeus molot combos work well in low silver and mid-range Tashas are also underrated.

I've been playing silver for a ridiculous amount of time, and the best midrange setups are all on the golem. Zeus/molots is one of my favorites but you're exposed a lot so you often get taken out by Natashas. Trident/tult/pin is my favorite though, and recently replaced the pin Patton as my favorite. The Patton has more consistent dpm and is easier to pilot, but the golem has better burst damage and works well as a transition bot to gold with its medium and heavy hard points.

I don't think I'm qualified to vote on this since I haven't yet tried out Tridents, but why isn't RDB Griffin on this list? I'm using one in High Silver and am loving it.

Zeus Pin Tulumbas Golem is by far the best mid ranger in silver.
There is no need for a trident because less shield bots, and zeus does more damage

There is no need for a trident because less shield bots, and zeus does more damage I can't agree with "by far", because tridents can clear cover Zeus would never be able to; sometimes the damage doesn't even register for a direct hit, whereas with a trident you could be having finger spasms but even at 599m you won't miss. |

I have never had a zeus hit not register, and a Zeus Pin Tulumbas golem can easily do significant damage to a gepard before they could hit you.

Hey, I played it most of my matches since Halloween my Zeus hits don't register occasionally every single game that I play with the Zeus fury. There's a reason I have the Zeus shelved. |

Think it's either trident rocket golem or zeus rocket golem depending on play style but for me I picked zeus variation. Sure, splash damage is great especially for shooting around corners (not to mention trident sound effects are way cooler) but considering fewer shieldbots in silver + having almost double the DPS in comparable L5-6, think zeus is marginally better in spite of its quirks. (And can shoot every 5 sec)
In higher tiers would be different though...

I just started running a Trident Golem and must say it quickly found a spot in my silver hanger, saving for my second trident to run two of these and replace my pin patton. Will be perfect while I save for second Carnage for TriCarny.

Rocket Golem is awesome. Most of its use in silver is to destroy Geps in open maps, even when they are taking cover. 2 barrage usually do the trick against lv2/3 Geps. Aiming is quite hard though..

I dunno, but it works for me. Only in maps like Canyon and Springfield though. In Dead City it's a different story..

These days in silver randoms I meet more Gep users who don't realize the Geps advantages and pilot them poorly. A good Gep who jukes all thelse time is tough to hit with rockets, one who runs in predictable lines is easy to damage heavily with rocket salvos. |

No matter how fast you are, you can't dodge rockets within 150m.
Also, midrange rockets are undodgeable.

I voted for the Rocket Golem. Sure, I'm not playing in silver, really. But all the times, MM bumped me up, my Golem did great.

I'm changing my answer in light of the new buff to the guns that went live. Zeus/Molots Golem FTW.
