Poopface very nice fellow SuckerPuncher! You are rounding into form with those rockets. Whats it been, a few months now with your new besty? Great proof that commitment to the ways of The SuckerPunch pays off handsomely. Robot murder is just better in a Strider.
I can only imagine it gets better once you finish screwing around and level everything up to more respectable levels than I have.
That depends on what your definition of screwing around is. One guys screwing around is another guys fun is another guys pain in the 「bum-bum」 to deal with... no better bot to get creative with IMO. Btw, if youâre interested in adding another dimension to your rocket game....lockdown module is only 20 crackules per pop and you can get that center bacon more often, as well as dole out some serious aggravation to 3 or 4 reds at a time that are trying to spoil your action.

I was referring to my having a bit of ADD regarding what I'm leveling up. I've been bouncing around between different mechs, guns, and modules instead of being focused and finishing something up.
I could certainly try Lockdown, but I find that I need the health pretty badly. I often find myself 1vX because I'm going after bacon and my teammates are playing peekaboo/4-stacked on a bacon/jerking off in a corner.

So I won Kyle Hawk and decided to repurpose my 1 Adrian pilot. 2200 Au later and now I have this... Not my first choice of skills, but good enough to stop rolling. Now, if I could only master the super-dash-mega-jump...

Now, if I could only master the super-dash-mega-jump... You're doing better than me. I still haven't figured out the visual cues to do a super dash.

We can check w BB, but I don’t think super dash is quite what it used to be. And tbh, I’ve given up trying super jump. I’ve caught some righteous air a couple times, but usually it’s invisible brick wall eating my 30PCs and openly laughing in my face.

Ironically, I accidentally super dashed on Canyon immediately after posting my comment above. It saved me ~2 glides to get to the next beacon.
I still don't know how I did it, though.

I still don't know how I did it, though. It’s somewhere in this thread, but the basic idea is to imagine that there is a horizontal line right about shoulder height. Right when that line matches up with a hard-edge drop in the terrain (perfect platforms work best like Carrier, Springfield, Stairs Beacon in Shenzhen, etc.) hit the Dash. Easy to practice in Custom Match...

See where the shoulder line is crossing the platform edge? Boom super dash.... Also, I have better luck moving at full speed and hitting the dash on a down step.

The visuals and perspective has changed a bit since this vid was made, but the same idea applies. Line up your wings with the edge and try to launch on a down step. Still pretty consistent for me on castle, carrier and canyon. More of a gamble on other maps.

My brothers!
Unfortunately, they weren't very elusive so I got ring-side seats to witness their demise.

Ok....I’m sure of the answer, but Will ask anyways.....I’ve shelved my Strider due to constant death by crappy Scorpions....I have not been able to counter those yet, and CB or red side bacon is always inside Scorpion territory.........help!

You all think you got me? I got news for you, Sport.
You'd better go get some more help.

It'd also be interesting to compare this vs the new one that boosts corrosion damage (assuming you use Flames).

Once again, Pix passes up an opportunity to be creative. Not that I was expecting much, but this is one of the bigger “oooo, might be interesting” anticipation letdowns for me in a while.

Yeah maybe I'm missing something but why would anyone dump any resources into this new strider Legendary Pilot instead of Adrian Legendary Pilot?
Huge let down IMO, jack Moore is the most pointless Legendary Pilot of them all

In the offers section, click legendary pilots, scroll all the way to the right. 5% damage increase for 8 seconds after a dash.
Adrian gives 5% all the time

Are we talking a stackable 5% as in .... closing in on enemy 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% smoked? Or just a steady 5%? It does say each time it's activated? If it's the later, I've been waiting a long time for a Legendary Pilot for one of my Top 5 bots for trash that doesn't even make any sense. Your right, if Adrian gets 5% all the time, what the hell is the point?

If it's stackable that could be interesting. Now we need someone to get it and test

I.....couldn’t stop myself. I guess I need to figure out how I’m going to outfit it. My leveled Strider has Glacier/Rime. Don’t want to duplicate that. I have Nucleons but no Quarkers, Exodus (not leveled) not sure what I’d pair it with though, Blazes (not leveled) and only one Ember, Devastator but none of the small equivalent. I suppose I could try Shotguns or Calamity/Spark. Not a fan of the lock-on requirement though. Or Magnum/Redeemer? Don’t know how that’d go in the current meta, though.

Out of all those options, I think I'd try Calamity/Spark and just cope with lock-on. I feel like the plasmas would be too tricky to aim during dashes...I've heard people speak of an aiming bug with Tarans and sometimes I wonder if that's really true, but I've definitely lost close-combat fights because at point-blank range, my Magnum/Taran Raven wasn't landing shots.

I guess another option might be Nucleon/Shredder. Not ideal, though.
Jeb - Regarding the Calamity/Spark, wouldn't I also need to invest in Guidance Operator for both weapons? Seems pricey for something I don't really want to use.
