Actually i'm gathering gold for the fifth slot, my angar is made by a 7/7 gekko treb (witch i usually use in the first part of battle to hunt down annoyng light bots and carnage from safe distance), then a 8/9 tulu-punisher griff my "Universal soldier", a 7/7 thunder/mag (one aphid) leo is my knife fighter and a 6/6 hiydra/spiral griff complete the team cause i find him versatile and tactical. I like my hangar and doing quite well considering i'm a noob with only few weeks of playing experience  but what i feel is the lack of a second knife fighter also capable of cap and defend light beacons so i'm thinking on a thunder/carnage or on a taran/pinata rhino , considering my hangar and the fact that my playstyle is a balanced one based on being capable of help the team in as many combat situation i can what will be your choice? Thx for answers |

Short term:
Tulu Pin Griffin / Taran Mag Griffin / Thunder Piñata Leo / Taran Mag Aphid Griffin / Trident Carnage
Medium term I'd then shoot to convert the Trident Carnage into a Fury, the Tulu Griffin into an Orkan/ Piñata Death-button, the Leo into a Taran Thunder Lancelot and one plasma Griffin into a Plasma Galahad.
TT Fury / DB Griffin / Aphid Taran Griffin / Taran Thunder Lancelot / Plasma Galahad
I would ditch both your long range and your homing missles. These are both effective as scoring damage when you're new, but they become a bigger and bigger liability to you and your team as you level up.

Something faster, eventually. I find one quick bot for emergency beacon capping ( or initial capping for that matter) to be an important part of my hangar. Maybe a Boa if you're not spending gold or wsp on it, but ideally I would put a stalker in that slot for now.
But you're looking for a KF, so with that said I would get another Griff, spend the WSP to get tarans and mags for him for a plasma build.
Of course this is for immediate play. Long term the suggestions right above are a good end game goal.

Thunder pinata leo is cool too but why pinata over mag, exp with the new ancile pimp? Long term I think i will never be a TT player , not spending big money on this game so my dream hangar , atm , is zeus/gekko leo, taran/plasma ghalahad,hydra/spiral griff or hydra doc(i've won one in lottery),punisher/tulu griff ( a set up i truly love),mag/thunder leo or taran/pinata rhino/or another galahad/or carnage I know is not supercompetitive, but i like variety, i like not to be main stream and i think theese bots swit my play-style |

As i said i already have thought to plasma griff, but same question, cause i find him much more easier to manage than rhino , for stalker i already have one ready in storage ( win to lottery as doc) but i do not rlly think he will swit my needs Anyway thx you to |

Tyvm for suggestion but: Short term pin tulu griff never will be over punisher tulu griff cause of my personal like and for the point i've made in the "what weapon you like most" thread, I get the whole "knock down the shield, follow with rockets" appeal, but it simply doesn't do enough damage to be a serious threat. Tulu Doc is hugely effective from 500 meters, if you want to run punishers I'd put 4 on the griffin and get in close. taran/mag griff is something i'm thinking too but don't you think taran/pinata rhino can cover much more variety of roles on the field being much effective vs shielded bots? All plasma Rhino is effective, pinata Taran is one of the weaker builds. Vs the Griffin it's faster and has a shield, it's much harder to pilot and is more vulnerable to Tridents. Thunder pinata leo is cool too but why pinata over mag, exp with the new ancile pimp? You need at least one bot that can push an enemy off a defended beacon in close, and the pinata version is better at that. Take the Ancile down with the thunder first and it's effective against both types of shields. Plus I used your mags elsewhere. my dream hangar , atm , is zeus/gekko leo, taran/plasma ghalahad,hydra/spiral griff or hydra doc(i've won one in lottery),punisher/tulu griff ( a set up i truly love),mag/thunder leo or taran/pinata rhino/or another galahad/or carnage Again, stay away from long range and homing missiles. I've got a nearly maxed Hydra Doc and it's still underwhelming. Given your preferences and hanger you might aspire to something like: Tulu Doc / Zeus Carnage / Punisher Griffin / Plasma Galahad / Thunder Aphid Leo Just don't be the guy in back with the lasers and spirals. I know they seem effective against light bots now, but as you level up and start seeing more heavies/ shield bots you'll find that guys simply ignore them and kill all your teammates while you're putting on a light show. |

Recommended spending that Au on improving your current builds, and switching out long range as others have said. Buy some orkans/aphids etc. Also that new dash bot is coming out soon and it could be a gamechanger, I'm holding all my spending till it drops to buy asap.

You have made your point absolutelly, clear , so best choice in short term seems to be thunder carnage as soon as i will have the 5th slot, in this period i think i will try tu up some pinata, a couple of mk2 punishers and gonna try out tulu doc just to see how i feel with some of the set-up you gave me . I feel very upset spending so much gold in gekkos and dropping (i have already wasted gold in one gep i never use  )so it is harf for me to think that i have to put them down and i like rlly much hydras in some situation but your point seems good so i will try to balance between my feelings and utility on the field! In any case thank you for giving me your experience! |

Short term: Tulu Pin Griffin / Taran Mag Griffin / Thunder Piñata Leo / Taran Mag Aphid Griffin / Trident Carnage I'd say Thunder Carnage instead of Trident. With RDB, that'd be 2 midrangers. Plus, OP is at the tier where a Thunder Carnage can still be extremely effective. They are also a lot more fun than Trident Carnages, so I think he might as well enjoy it while he can. Medium, they'd want to move to Trident Carnage, and long-term to a TT Fury. Although so far, I've found Trident Carnage a lot less fun than the RDB. |

You'll note the two mid-range was an interim step towards one. With today's matchmaker in particular I'd be worried about mech-out with low level bots one mid range with a thunder carnage in the lineup. That said I spend close to zero time playing with guys at that level, and when I do see them they tend to die very quickly... |

Tulumbas are better than Punishers in every way. A Taran Pinata is called the Reverse Hellfire. One of the bad builds. If you really want to mix plasma and rockets, get two Orkans and two Magnums. Shield goes up while Orkans recharge and Magnums provide fire. Shield down when Orkans have ammo. A Spiral Hyrda Griffin will only work in a 6 man squad, and even then, it's not usually preferred as there are better support bots. |

That said I spend close to zero time playing with guys at that level, and when I do see them they tend to die very quickly... Yeah, there definitely be times when my Thunder Carnage gets fried quickly by a PDB, but other times when it lasts almost the whole match while taking out a bunch of other bots. And despite my love for midrange, I find it hard to get much use from them in Dead City or Power Plant, so two midrangers even as an interim step seems very costly. I know the Thunder Carnage is not that effective at Canyon and Yam, but it'd be just taking up 1 slot. Anyway, I know I haven't played nearly as long as you. Just talking mostly from the fun factor of Thunder Carnage vs. Trident Carnage. |

Just to be clear punisher is mounted with tulu on my griff, and after i've tried a few matches with pin/tulu and others with full punisher thing will remain like this! I truly love that setup because perfectly fit my playstyle! Anyway thx for tips on rhino, they make sense for me |

Get a Trident Fury, or a Zeus Carnage.

For close maps, Thunder Carnage, and for big maps, Trident Fury. I'm getting high wins with this setup.

My favorite bots are my Plasma Galahad, Aphid Patton and my Death Button Griffin.
Galahad, when leveled up, can out run orkan/pinata fire while dealing damage.
DBG deals a huge amount of damage in a short amount of time. You can do a DB Rhino but I like being able to jump.
I have a bone stock hybrid Natasha that I like consisting of lvl 9 gekkos and lvl 7 tridents. My best score was a 740k with that build so far.
Aphid Patton is a beast but untimitly is a support bot, not a knife fighter.
