So i noticed on the wiki page that it says that stalker can be used in bronze tier for gold farming. I bought stalker just for farming in silver, but it pushes me up to gold even if my hanger is filled with 4 lvl 1-4 cossacks with lvl 1 weapons( plus stalker with lvl 2-4 weapons). Anyway ive done some testing and i always get matched with people who have much better weapons, and have lots of gold or wsp bots like galahad. Anybody else experience this? Im sure that its not possible to use stalker in bronze, since i got put in Yamantau, but im a bit unsure as to where high silver tier ends and gold starts. Either way it matches you with very tough bots.

No, a stalker is not used in bronze. If you want to farm in bronze without spending Au on Gepards, then you use Cossacks and cap beacons non-stop. If you win, this guarantees at least 5 gold I think. If you want to get more, then you use a combination Cossack for capping and a Shutze with Thunders for damage/kills. A Patton with punishers or molots can also be used to hold beacons.
Try to keep your bot levels low (lvl 2) to remain in bronze and keep you weapons 2 levels higher than your bots.
You may have to keep the Stalker in storage till your hangar's ready for silver.

I am farming in silver, since the wiki says you can use stalkers in bronze i figured you could use it in silver. But the wiki is out of date i guess. I tried to edit it but it kept saying something like, unable to process request, no matter if i refreshed the page and tried again.

Can you post your silver farming hangar? Maybe your bot (esp the stalker) level's too high.

Can you post your silver farming hangar? Maybe your bot (esp the stalker) level's too high. This is my normal silver farming hanger.  This is my a hanger which i created simply to see if i could be placed in bronze or silver using only low weapon levels and low level cossacks along with my lvl 3 stalker.  |

Ive done further testing and it seems like using my second hangar gets me to high silver, which is higher than the first hanger set up gets me. With a modified first hanger( the whole purpose of buying stalker) of stalker with two lvl 8 pinatas instead of destrier, i get placed in gold. With one lvl 8 and a lvl 5 i get placed in high silver again. It would seem stalker boosts you relatively high in MM system, especially with lvl 8 weapons.

Hm, I think you're right. The higher lvl weps, WSP bot penalty, and your high win rate is placing you in a much higher tier (despite the fact that your normal hangar is more powerful). Still to be honest I'm surprised by the significant bump.

2/8 Lights, without Gareth or Stalker, does the job. Thunder Schutzes, Taran Cossacks and Mag or Aph Geps.

I tried to edit it but it kept saying something like, unable to process request, no matter if i refreshed the page and tried again. It seems to let me edit just fine. So, I've moved Stalker out of the Bronze section into the Silver section (I see plenty of them being plenty effective in mid-to-high Silver), adding a brief note about the MM penalty. Feel free to let me know if you want anything else changed, as I enjoy editing the Wiki. |

Just use a Gepard if you are gonna farm, Stalker doesnt have the firepower and is slower than the Gepard at levels below 5 or 6 I think
