Have plenty of wsp and enough gold to buy a pair of tarans and aphids. Which is the better use? Aphids/taran Galahad Aphid/taran rhino or grif Or just run plasma on the rhino or grif? Aphid/Taran is better on Griffin. Aphid/Taran Galahad is not a bad setup. I would run both on the test server and see which better suits your playing style.

I did not like aphids on a Rhino. Too hard to laterally track targets on that bot, without coming to a near-complete stop

So as of right now, is a death button griffin better with Pinatas or Aphids?

I run this and I agree with camper. I like the setup a lot.

So at this time Pinatas are nearly strictly inferior?

So at this time Pinatas are nearly strictly inferior? pretty much yeah. Which is why I am not against a nerf to aphids, even if it is only slight.

Tarans and Magnums are a better combo

Tarans and Magnums are a better combo For the Galahad it is, for the Griffin it's debatable and for the Rhino I'd have to agree.

Basically, dont take on ghads straight up. Soften them up with Aphids. If you see a Lance you can break a shield part in one salvo by just getting into range and backing up as the Lancelot engages.
Generally speaking I have Aphids on constant reload (been using this build for the past year). Anybody who confronts me gets Taran'd. Anything big like PDB Griffin needs to be engaged with Aphids ready. That initial chunk usually scares them off and the cycle repeats.
Twin Taran is strong on its own but you you begin to rely on alpha strikes for harder targets, and it's not dumb to retreat mid-mag and force reload, finishing your opponent behind cover with another aphid salvo.
Jump is often used to get into Aphid range

Every setup you can run on the Rhino is better on the Griffin. Even Hydra/Spirals

From the OP's choices, my preference is Taran/Aphid Griff and plasma on Rhino and Galahad. Taran/Aphid Galahad is ok, but I do not like Aphids on Rhino at all.
