My hanger  Wallet 1,255 AU 10,050 WSP 110M Silver Notable Inventory Bots: LV 6 Fujin LV 1 Rog weapons: LV1 Hyrda 1x LV6 Trident 1x LV8 Thunders 2x LV5 Gekko 1x I am pretty happy with my hanger right now. It isn't perfect but I have finally managed to get a decently balanced hanger after the MM changed and pushed me away from the 4/8 Boas. I just don't know where to go from here. I was going to get a mag for the Griffin that still has a Punisher buuut I have been thinking about replacing that bot with a mid range bot for a while ... just never really got around to committing to one. I was thinking I could maybe get another Trident for a Trident Natasha. Maybe Hyrda Spiral Griffin. Maybe just save the WSP and put in a RDB... I was also considering skipping the path of adding a mid ranged and just getting a carnage since I have Thunders already... or maybe replacing a Griffin with a Rhino. I don't really know. Seems like there are a lot of options/directions I could go and I am not really sure what to go with. |

Get your 5th slot before anything else.
The Galahad should be Taran Magnums and one of the griffins should be Taran Aphid.

Hi there Truechill - you have some great stats there and a solid hangar - here are some thoughts I have while looking at it - hope it's helpful to you:
1) I think 5th slot should be your main goal with AU. Dont buy anything until you reach 5k and unlock.
2) Unless you are loving the Gala with Orks and Aphids, I would suggest putting your aphids on the Taran/Mag/Punisher Griff to make a Taran/Aphid Griff, and then putting pinatas on the Gala.
3) I would not buy the Rhino. And not because it has a learning curve. I drove my Rhino until I loved my Rhino, but here's the thing - a level 8 Rhino has 134k HP. A level 8 Griff has 124k. So the Griff is not really that much more squishy than Rhino at that level. And the Griff's jump, and better maneuverability more than make up for the Rhino's charge ability and shield. I think Griff is the better bot, and I don't like saying it.
4) I would suggest trying out the RDB Griff in one of the slots. It won't improve your damage right now, but it will help you learn the midrange style of play, and then you can decide if you want a more dedicated trident bot if you like the style of play. I don't love running a RDB Griff, but I am forcing myself to learn that style.
5) Thunder Carnage is a super fun ride, but often a short ride.
Cheers!

@darkangel12s types faster than me, and apparently can say everything I can in 1/4 the words. Cheers to you sir!

Aphids on a Galahad? The Had can tank it with the best of them. Personally I prefer the Ork/piñata setup just because shield bots seems to be all the rage right now.

If I take that Taran from the Griffin to put on the Gala I won't have anything to replace that with and I will be down a reasonably competitive bot all together. Unless there is a way to shuffle things that I am missing. I suppose I could buy another Taran with my WSP. Edit: Had another thought... maybe if I take the Taran from the griffin I could replace the Griffin with one of the Mid Range options I was thinking about. I may give that a try. Thanks for the advice mate |

Lots of good info in there and things to consider. I like the idea of putting Pinatas on the Gala and the aphids to the Griffin. I think I can make that adjustment. I appreciate the advice on the Rhino. I will save some WSP there. And yeah .. I really need that 5th slot ... there are just so many shiny things to spend AU on ... =D |

truechill, you can take a Taran off a griff, and put the other Taran on the bench. That makes room for your RDB. Gala - Taran/Magnum Griff - DB Griff - RDB Griff - Taran/Mag or Taran/Aphid or Ork/Aphid unless you only have the 3 Orks. Or, maybe that 4th bot becomes a Taran Fujin. Those are great counters to Carnages
