I am finally starting to experience the insane cost of leveling heavy weapons in the new economy and it has forced me to make some decisions.
As much as I want to try them I will not get any Exoduses or Embers. I just don't want to spend the time and Silver.
It's a shame because one of the things I really like about War Robots is the variety of available weapons.
I will still try to grind out two Dragoons (because my hangar needs range) and a single Avenger (because I love machine guns!) but after that I'm done with heavy weapons. If a new bot needs heavy weapons I will use my current inventory. If I win a heavy weapon I'll probably just leave it in my hangar at level 1.
It's not really a boycott. It's just that I'm forced to prioritize my purchases now.

Totally understand. I love variety too, and I sacrifice ever being able to max out my gear for variety. You're not missing too much. I do enjoy the Exodus and it's made my Inky complete. I'm in the process of leveling my Avenger now and I'll be spending gold to speed it up.

I've been noticing a lot classic bots/weapons being pushed to Mk2/12, and have done so to a few myself after the New Economy changes. Like you said, not really a boycott, as I am still dropping silver for upgrades, just being more picky about what I spend my Ag on. I just won 2 shiny new Hydras from the silver chest and have put together a Spydra Griffin that may take the place of my Vortex/Aphid Hover. I've been having a lot of fun with the Hover, but bringing the Vortex up from 6 to 7 just cost me 1.4M Ag and 1-day/15.5hr wait time. I want to get the Hover to 8 all-around, but geesh, really? So I'm going to see how fast I can get that Spydra Grif on par with the Hover. I know, I know, not the most popular setup, especially when on the receiving end, but the Hover serves the same purpose in my lineup, the antagonist. I use it to get to high ground and drive people out from behind cover, like other Hydra users.

I have a level 1 Bulgasari and level 1 Raven sitting in my hangar, collecting dust. Costs too much and takes too much time to upgrade them  It'll suck when I get my Pursuer. I've wanted to play it for a long time, but now I have to focus on leveling up my hangar, not a new bot and 3 weapons. If stuff isn't at least level 10, it's not competitive enough for Master League imo. |

It's just that I'm forced to prioritize my purchases now. I have a level 12 Ember that I have replaced with a Level 9 Avenger and I already think the Avenger is superior.... I can tell you that. You would be a little disappointed if you replaced an avenger with an Ember. Dragoon I have mixed feelings... hits very hard, but the lack of auto aim can be frustrating with a tweaky mouse. I was angling toward a Fury/Dragoon setup but I've settled back on a Flux/Treb for him and I think the Fury is better off at distance. Dragoon is only good on a Bulwark imho because Bulwark has the protection to get that close to Spectre/Whateveritsgot. |

I plan to start by putting two Dragoons on a Carnage but eventually I hope to have a Bulwark |
