A level 6 heavy weapon on any bot except a Schutze will automatically place you high bronze at a minimum (the first tier that sees Yamantau).
What does your hangar look like? At 6/10 levels, either or both your bot/weapon levels could be pushing you into high bronze.

There is a 1/6 chance of getting every map. Just blame your luck.

Thought this would be a rant about how bots tend to slide around when trying to move on Yama

Since we're going to rant about environmental hazards anyway, what the **** is up with getting stuck on a blade of grass ? I can understand getting too close to the corner of a building but jesus, we're talkin flat ground running in place like I'm some damn cartoon character trying to run on an oil slick and I have to do ballet moves to get off of it

Not to be all contrarian buuuuuut it is my favorite map. With my hanger it is a dream. Mostly all wins unless my team is camper central.
I average 6 Beacons there. Cossack & stalkers. 1 Stalker is a x2 ecu Stalker. I get 2 or 3 bots chasing me and their own Beacons while my team (even a lame one) takes center beacon.
My biggest fear is 2 beacon stealers on red team tap dancing in our own endzone.
A 66mph Stalker blowing past center is pure joy watching their mad scramble to counter... It's a momentum death nail.
I'll get blasted by a high level sniper and some homing missiles but a robot or 2 later and I get through.

Yer fine. Salty chose his name for a reason. I think the mod is referring to you get hit with troll bait from Salty, not the other way 'round, but ask him There is a general consensus (that I personally don't agree with) that weaponless bots are completely useless. From the movie "Hero": I have just come to a realization! This scroll by Broken Sword contains no secrets of his swordsmanship. What this reveals is his highest ideal. In the first state, man and sword become one and each other. Here, even a blade of grass can be used as a lethal weapon. In the next stage, the sword resides not in the hand but in the heart. Even without a weapon, the warrior can slay his enemy from a hundred paces. But the ultimate ideal is when the sword disappears altogether. The warrior embraces all around him. The desire to kill no longer exists. Only peace remains. |

If it's so common, why is the screenshot at LEAST 2 days old ? Note the snowflakes. I'm also a beacon runner and I average 6 beacons whilst still getting top damage so I know Salty is easily topping both of us. Just don't see where your rant is coming from and why you continue to spam my post......

Futile coin flip without a beacon runner.
My other 4 bots are well armed. I only have the 2xecu Stalker when it is crucial ... if we're outgunned and bleeding-out faster. That set up altered the usual game progression many many times .
The simple fact is most pilots will chase the freaky unarmed beacon turner that's flipping beacons close to their own regeneration station.
Salty, I get it, I'm the new guy. I only meant to tell why Yamato was my absolute favorite. Then ....well ya threw a jab at what's gotten me 80% over & 1400 wins. If you need proof or further examples I'm happy to educate
But..I'm sure you're a peach... My bad.
Enjoy your bat & ball. Later

1) can you stop spamming other peoples' threads 2) bots with weapons cap beacons just as well as bots without weapons 3) I really didn't want to, but if it shuts you up:    You're not the only one here that runs designated beacon capper. |
