I just have one exodus right now and I want to know what bot you guys think is best for it.
It's really cool how some of the old robots are now more viable with the new heavy weapons. It's a nice change from the medium weapons galore mode we had before
Edit: in expert league I/I for reference

Agree. I think Inquisitor with Orkans is gonna be the best. Let's see what people say.

DB Inky, slightly less burst dmg when compare to Spectre, but live a lot longer

I have one and it takes forever and millions to upgrade to a decent level but today I use it in skirmish and I wasn't so impressed sorry to say.

Inquisitor is the (boring)
obvious choice for many.
I say Natasha, with Exodus/Ancile. Suppliment with pinatas or whatever.

Strider. Save your dashes.
Move in (two dashes), unload (with optional sidestepdash), move out (2 dashes).

Have an 11/12 exodus/gust strider. I almost exclusively play FFA on Android in masters league.
It's shockingly fun. You have to thoughtfully plan your ambush treachery and execute everything as ninja-like as possible because you need to get heavy-breathing-on-them CLOSE. As another commenter said, you want to save your dashes. Then, when you spring your trap, you just shred and dash away...
Pretty much!
Though there is the slight matter of having NO health to speak of, even at higher levels, which may cause one to fall VERY flat on the face sometimes. Like, oops, slipped on an orkan peel, thanks spectres, back to spawn:(
Whatever.
I typically like to find two bots who are engaging with each other and make it to them in time to wipe them both out (I may turn into an unashamed hypocrite if the situation calls for it and break that rule about "saving the dashes" to make it in time). It's a basic FFA strategy but I find the strider excels at getting you places and the exodus with gusts are absolutely devastating up close. Physical shielding and anciles alike are nothing more than a polite deterrent to the onslaught.
It is very exciting to out-maneuver a Bulgasari and brutally mow it down when you're so tiny that you're basically crotch-level with them the whole time. It's a bit hilarious. I wasn't able to get that effect when I had a Thunder in that heavy slot. The Exodus is a game changer for this little fella.
It is stupidly, perversely, incoherently overpriced to upgrade, but hey, we all play War Robots here, amirite?

It's a nice change from the medium weapons galore mode we had before Edit: in expert league I/I for reference I don't believe any new weapons have made old robots more viable. As an example given above, why would you choose a natasha with pinatas, exodus and ancille. An orkan Fujin would be closeish. An orkan ancille Lancelot would be better in (I think) every way An orkan haechi would definitely be better. |

But I really used to love running my carnage and it seems if I can grind another exodus then carnage could be fun again. I already have a db haechi and love it, but call it nostalgia if you want when I think about the carnage. I am confused between putting one exodus that I have on the strider or the inquisitor or lancelot. Quiz is PDB. Also have a new economy ember in storage so that might go on the quiz otherwise. |

Inquisitor with orkans is your best bet. DB inky is an awesome brawler build.

Looks a little weird. The colours are cosmetically pleasing to the eye. |
