should i upgrade it to MK2 is it worth it? im having a bit of a crisis, see, i spent ALL my silver upgrading from lvl 10 and now im broke is anything worth it? WHY IS MY FENRIR A VACUUM FOR SILVER any similar situations anyone? btw my fenrir currently has approximately 350k hp so it might be worth it to make it higher but im still deciding It all depends on what you want to do in the game. The higher your gear, the higher your league will end up being. So if you generally like the style/variety of play in your league, you might considering setting a cap to your gear leveling. At your league (gold according to your forum acct), you'll encounter some tankers that are seal clubbing as well as some people that buy MK2 deals and will eventually raise out of your league due to increased damage output. You won't be painted into a corner facing all the monthly releases of uberoverpoweredallthebellsandwhistlespewpewpew deathmachine stuff you'd get in upper Masters and Champ league. That's the trap people fall into when they feel they need to chase the gearing curve and get things to upper MK2 and MK3.
There is a sweet spot that some people find to get increased effectiveness while also capping their league elevations: they level up mechs, but keep guns low. That might be something to consider.
We have some members here that have successfully found their sweet spot in lower leagues. Cdr. Crimmins and >^\}VULTURE{/^< are two that could give some very good input. More learned than mine: I stay in M3 and M2.

Ran up against Jeb this morning. Things went okay until I got run over by an Indra bubble machine, though. At least I got the only kill I really wanted. I had to chase from E beacon, across half the pipe, under B on the lower ledge, and halfway across the C beacon bridge to catch up but at least I got it. 😈

This kind of goofy stuff is what intrigues me. It's why I ask. It's why I'm slowly putting together a Jaeger, why I've been running a Butch for the last month, and why I thoroughly enjoyed meetjoeblack 's jumping spear-laden Natasha video. 🤗thanks. I enjoyed in jumping Natasha too 😊. I agree with Wolfblood7 about glory behemoth. Too slow. But in the other hand I tried about 1-2ago Glory Crisis. In that time I didn't see much Glory wep. like today and I was 😱😱😱. I am not sure will it be that good on live server but it could be. I would definitely pick Crisis glory over behemoth glory. little short video back from that period: You two are most likely right, but I have a stubborn stupid streak a mile wide running down my back. Plus I have a few silly idea for how to mitigate some of that.

「fluffernutter」ing tankers. I was on an excellent roll with the Invader, too. No doubt Iâd have gotten a double double otherwise.

I don't think Behemoth with glory would work. You need to be seriously close, and I mean less than 50 metres close, for glorys to be effective. With the behemoth being so slow in siege mode I just don't think you would be able to do that. The damage would be insane though if you did manage it somehow.

Just about nothing. I don't typically use flying mechs much.

I have a Sheriff, but it's only 1/9. I had plans but [undiagnosed] ADHD has kept pulling me in other directions. I suppose I could power-level if it needed, but I'd want to hold off until a 40% discount event to do so.
Also, I don't have the 6-Pack Discord channel. Plenty of others, but not that one.

I tried but there were Blue tankers on their way down and Red tankers on their way up. Only so much you can do.

I’m sorry you aren’t enjoying yourself. Everyone has their own thing (or plural, things) they look forward to with this. For some they go for wins. I used to as well.
Then I realized the odds are stacked against you, particularly if you don’t pay for all the best toys.
I stopped caring about wins and losses all that much. I still try, but if I lose? So be it.
Now I play for fun. I like building oddball builds and try to make them work reasonably well. Wins and losses are secondary or tertiary to that goal now.
I have a good bit more fun now. That approach isn’t for everyone, though.

Okay. I won’t begin to poke at that, but there are a bit of factors that factor into damage output for entire games.
I’m curious about pure damage output in a face to face. It’s not a real-world application, but that’s the curiosity. While notable, simply listing a luminary isn’t data.

I’m kicking around trying Glories on a Behemoth.
I’ve seen videos of Glory usage, but haven’t seen anything recent and data-driven or much since the drone overhaul. Looking for an Aygir-esque approach if possible although not necessarily vs as many different mechs.
I’m trying to see three things: 1. Eddie Noll - drone? 2. Kate O’Donnel w/ Beak - simulates somebody going for survivability 3. Kate O’Donnel w/ Paralysis drone - simulates somebody going for max lockdown
Has this been done? I’d try it, but have hit my spending cap for the month and still need to level up a few Glories.

I always thought that was a weird message anyway. It's like saying no raincoat can protect you from rain. Might not help with this one.

More proof Pix don't play their own game. I'd be remiss if I didn't add the obligatory summons to GuitarGuy to further pile on. He's been banging the table on that fact for at least 5 years.
And he isn't wrong.

yea saw this the other day and earlier in a post. Not bad, only thing is I use a different pilot and weps, but mods are the same. Spears, eh. Jury is still out since they are new and all. Plus the ones I have faced in a brawl I wasnt too impressed since I burned them up pretty quickly. Still a soild build. Trixie is a great pilot, but since I have enough Stan Chens to fill them with I went that route, except for R. Petit on my burning spider. Plus with all the PS and all I have 2 bots with Quantum Radar now with range. Have you tried Midea with Venom/Toxin?

it actively changes everyday as I try to find what’s best for me. the leech, behemoth, and invader are usually there. I mostly play dom and occasionally play beacon rush. (Too many damn scorpions In tdm) There are two mech that aren't all that viable. One is the Spectre. It can work, but it's so glass I recommend against it. If you really want to, use long-range weapons with a quick fire cycle like the Gauss-style guns. The other is Leech which is, also, a glass cannon. It's less so than a Spectre, but not by a whole lot.
Invader is a lot of fun, particularly if you do everything you can to make it tanky. I use flames on mine, but munkeeee is the resident Invader expert.
I'm a big Loki fan. You really want to focus in speed and health. I wouldn't worry too much about trying to do damage, although, sonic weapons are good. Try to get it leveled up to 9 to get more speed.
Behemoth can be a jack of all trades, but is generally used the most for long-range pain. I can't speak too much about it because I haven't farted around too much with mine.

Starting to try building a Jaeger to see if I can make it less awful than I keep reading it is.
We shall see.

I never really got the hang of this bot, but I definitely see the appeal. My favorite build on it was flames with a tankier setup. I had the same issues. I had problems piloting the Blitz for the same reasons. I think it had to do with the leg placement vs waist. Pivoting isn’t smooth so you need to think a step or two ahead.

Certainly looks like predation. I would be on point security wise, mix up the animals routine as much as possible for a few days. Most predators watch the animals habits before striking if at all possible. My chickens flew over the fence. First time it's happened since we put the new fence in. Further incentive to install a hot wire above the fence.

Bots these days do not even need something like that to be insanely fast. Maxed Mars, Lynx, and Nether are fast enough already! Plus Ghost speed
