I always loved my stalker, have 3 gusts and two at lv 10. But never managed to get a Pursuer before the new Econ. Might have to swallow hard and make it s priority. They also need t make a better paint job for it. So much potential there.
Funny you mentioned yama
?
I use a MK1 L12 Pursuer with MK2 L12 gusts. At Yama I rush off the line at the start and have to wait on the ramp for about 3 or 4 secs for the next rush to become available. The situation generally always players out the same, Kumis get there about 5 secs early (I got a 3 -4 sec wait) and start brawling than I go in and clean them up. Its hilarious to see at times the survivors jump off the ramp and scatter. The same situation can play out on many other maps if the rushes are timed.
OP,
IMO he is very effective in Low Champs and Masters provided the gusts are highly levelled (or maxed). Aspects that are noteworthy in my opinion.
- He can get around maps fast. Also good for beacons
- Contrary to what some think he is effective at long range. On some long range open maps he can significantly weaken opponents by taking long range shots and also de-shield bots. In FFA this can be hilarious at times where people ignore you and pay a hefty price.
- Close in it’s a monster.
- I eat spectres with him one on one. Inquisitors are push overs. Issue is if the others team up (but again that’s an issue under most circumstances) or if you are being fired at from multiple sources.
- Often, be prepared to take damage to finish an opponent off rather than running back to a safe place before the stealth runs out. Smarter pilots will come after you anyway.
- There are some magic places on many maps where pursuers should hang out. They are practically unbeatable if in position and if the opponents don’t come at you while coordinated.
- He is a master of mayhem under the right circumstances.
- He loves to befriend ECU bots and pop out for attacks.
- He doesn’t like splash like tulus, allergic to STs and upset with hydras
He has a permanent spot in my hanger because he is strong enough and because I think he is the most fun bot to play of them all. But the last bit is just a personal opinion.
