How far do you get with five dashes, from spawn to spawn by the time a regular silver bot has reached the first beacon? 「whiskey tango foxtrot」 are they thinking? I hope this abomination dies in the cradle
Do they plan on buffing any of the old bots then? Or are they just going to be even more obsolete than they are now? My galahad used to be a demigod now I consider selling him for scrap metal

This just went down the drain really quickly.
I can imagine the amount of people that will quit as soon as these make it to the live server.

This thing is ugly as hell in my opinion, but four mediums is a solid message for any opponent. This bot is a killer. Orkan, Scourge, Storm, Shocktrain, Hydra...four at once...can you imagine?
I'm sure there is more to expect. Bots will stay at a maximum of four weapon slots, but with a lot more firepower than what we are currently used to. I'm sure there'll come bots like this in the near future:
3 heavy, 1 medium
2 heavy, 2 medium
1 heavy, 3 medium
The maximum firepower that the game allows by design would be a bot with four heavy slots. Exorcist kinda is the medium version of a Patton. I'm sure the family will be completed by a heavy equivalent at some point in the game. Exorcist is probably just the beginning of something that is a lot more devastating.

 Well done Pixonic! By this time next year, I'll be looking forward to my six orkan medium mech! |

I believe the term "Death Button" should be updated to apply to any setup the Exorcist uses.

The Exorcist is going to dominate the field! The Strider sounds tough too. Whimpy hp but with a 5 (?!is this right) charge dash, who could touch it? Also decent firepower. Whimpy hp? The Strider is more durable than the Exorcist Wow, I had them reversed... definitely OP on paper |

Ahhahahahhahahhahhaabahahahaha  The name "Exorcist" seems appropriate. It looks like a GI Patton has been possessed by Satan. |

Can someone tell me how to go in recruit league? You can always wait for the full Exorcist hangars to put you there. I have an idea for a weapon that would go nice with him. Range: Unlimited. Reload time: None. Firing it would instantly kill all the deployed enemy robots. Imagine four of those  Wouldn't that be fun? #overkillmuch #makeWRfunagain |

P.S: Boa was redesigned on the TS. I thought it looked really good. Just wish it was a skin rather then a complete replacement

This means the Kumiho is better at sustained dashing and beacon running and I think a Kumiho could take a Strider in a head up match as they both can evade fire, but the Kumiho would be way more mobile in a long battle. |

Not to mention if they're components it's going to dilute the component pool further making the components you've been trying to get even harder to collect...
Maybe that doesn't matter because my 67% of Inquisitor will be obsolete before I finish it.

Up next: The Retribution
Armed with 2 heavy hard points and a frontal shield.
It's special "Magnetic Impuls ability" can pull enemies towards itself from up to 200m. After the pull the target is being held 5 more seconds by the magnetic field.

And here it is. This was what the true problem with the new Dash mechs was all along; not only were they significantly to massively superior to everything in place in the game, they were an indicator of what would be coming before too much longer. No, the Dash mechs might not have broken the game in and of themselves. But they were the foreshadowing of what would come.
And now it’s here. Literally, game over.
