Hi! So I recently got my first Storm (and it is actually my first component weapon!!!) So, I was just wondering what I should do with it, I'm kinda guessing it's lke a gekko - it is not good by itself. But, I only have one, so what should I do with it?
Currently, since I have to get Beacons for the Christmas Tasks, I have it on a Cossack.
Any Better Ideas? Thanks!

I recently acquired one, and was planning to put it on my Boa for the 6 Pack league for if I ever get the right hangar for it. I'll probably get a second one someday, but I'll be very curious to see if a Storm on a Cossack works. If it does, maybe I'll put mine on a Cossack for the beacon capping tasks.

With just 1 I would either:
Gary with a Punisher or a Pinata. Golem with a Thunder and a Punisher. Boa with a Thunder. Gala with 2x Punishers OR Pinatas.
Or you could mix it in with a Punisher build like a Griff or a Rhino... or on a Lance with a Thunder and a Punisher-T.
Punishers and Thunders are the most complimentary weapons.

Since many will win at least 1 Shocktrain, your question could easily substitute this weapon. So, check this out: a champion league Shocktrain battle last night between my Shocktrain Kamiho vs a Zeus Shocktrain Boa ?! Stout little bugger sent me to heaven ?

That was my thought. Or a Thunderstorm Gust Gollum. Although the Gust seemed more like a Gale on the test server, especially four of them on a Patton. Instead of a Darth Vader or Death Star Patton, load up a Buckshot (or Gale Force) Patton.

I have used both the Gary with magnum. Boa with a Thunder.
I think the Thunderstorm is the better performer

Are you suggesting to be suicidal. Perhaps run for a beacon as well? On which task?

I dont think a storm would be as effective on a thunder boa instead of a taran. It would work up close but youd be giving up power at range and the ability to bypass ancile. The hellburner would have been a great candidate for storm.
I used one on a rog paired with a taran to hunt ancile bots. Its fairly effective in singles but best in sets of 3 and make short work of anything when mounted on a fujin or kbot. I currently have 3 lv7 on a lv7 haechi and it dines on tharnages.

Thunderstorm is such a kick-bum name. I recommend Thunderstorm Golem (w/ Punisher). This this what I'm running while waiting for my other Storm to be upgraded.

Nothing, this weapon is good only on Dash bots, because they can close the distance easily and take advantage of the great damage potential that the Storm has at point-blank. Every other bot with a medium hardpoint is too slow and it would be too situational with 1 Storm.

Best synergy would be a Boa with Thunder and Storm. High health pool will help a lot for surviving those really close firefights.

Got mine to lvl 6 and it's on my Cossack, killed 3 bots with it so far. Up close you can see the chunks flying off the reds, but like all Cossacks make sure the red have almost no health or they are looking elsewhere .... and almost no health.

I almost reach 10k storm Components. In 2 days I'll be able to buy 1 storm. I plan to put it on my fujin, but I just confuse. Maybe put it on boa with thunder and storm?

ѻﻭɼﻉ beat us all to the one and only choice. If you don't have a thunderstorm boa yet you aren't part of the cool kids club. You can't sit with us!

I too just got my first Storm and have been thinking about sticking it on Golem,seems perfect for him until I get another. Better level that Storm up cause from what I've seen it does not do much at level one.

Can anyone post their experiences with this weapon? Specific examples please, like killing a bot a what range, what bots to put it on, etc...
I'm starting to lose faith in my one itty bitty Storm, and I'm having second thoughts about committing the time and silver to upgrade my second, and committing the WSP and gold to get a third. I'm just not getting good mileage with this weapon. In fact, my experiences are similar to my dual Thunder Carnage experiences. I just can't seem to enough damage, even at point blank range. No matter how close I get, Orkans still seems to out perform Thunders and Storms.

No matter how close I get, Orkans still seems to out perform Thunders and Storms. Youre in luck, Koalabear. I just finished a shang game in gold 2. I started off with a storm lv7 haechi lv8 (a bit below average). As the reds started coming to our spawn area through the center beacon, I was able to pass on the south side (long low bldgs) unmolested. I literally waltzed into their area and started causing all sorts of havoc. It was a dream filled with natashas, griffins and leos. Good thing fellow blues started arriving just as the reds started coming for me. I was able to do a bit more damage before getting fragged. Spawned in an orkan haechi and offed another two before the game ended. All told, I got six red bots from full health with the storms. Engagement distance was sub 250m and fast paced. The storms worked like aces and chewed up everything in front of me. Best performance I've had in a while.

Thanks for that ezekielcrow. My Storms are currently Level 7 and 5. Ugh.. takes SO darn long. I'm running them on a Rog for now, until I get a 3rd Storm leveled up.
