What are the best WSP buys? Weapons? Robots?
I am thinking of buying a Stalker too, is it worth replacing Cossack?

All the WSP bots are nice but you'll use the weapons more. For example, many stalkers equip 2 Mags. It is better to get 2 mags, level them on another bot, and then get the stalker after.
That said I would suggest saving for a carnage. Equiped stock with 2 Thunders, it is a beast.

It depends a bit on your playstyle i think, but if i was in the very beginning and i can start again my buy my priority list will be :
2 mag (mount them on a griff)
4 tarans (mount them on griff,boa)
2 mag (again on griff or leo)
3 carnage ( totally better at capping of any stalker imho)
4 2 tridents
5 whatever else you want!

As always with this game, it depends - what level you are, what playing style, what you already have etc.
What works best varies as you progress, so there may be purchases that you make now, that won't be much use in the future and vice-versa - there are some things that won't help you so much now but are great later on.
Assuming you are at the early-ish stages of the game, getting mags first is good advice, followed by some tarans. Plasma is very powerful but becomes less effective as you rise and encounter more and more shield bots. At that point Tridents come into their own.
I would recommend weapons before bots, but once you have the weapons you want then the stalker is good fun but, again, less effective at the top end. The Carnage is so versatile with its speed, shield and weapon-range options that you probably won't regret it.

Is there a faster way of earning WSP other than starting it in thw workshop and spending gold on it?

Is there a faster way of earning WSP other than starting it in thw workshop and spending gold on it? Alas, no. Gold is harder to come by, so I wouldn't spend too much converting it to WSP. Likewise, there are some daily tasks that offer WSP, but I always change them for gold tasks as the gold offered could buy you way more WSP than the WSP task gives you! |

4 Tarans, 4 Magnums, Rhino, 2 Tridents, Carnage, Stalker, Fujin, and more Tarans / Magnums.
In that order.

4 Tarans, 4 Magnums, Rhino, 2 Tridents, Carnage, Stalker, Fujin, and more Tarans / Magnums. In that order. Ditto here but I would put the Fujin as optional. Carnage vs rhino is a play style option but eventually both will see some use |

As the game progresses you will easily accumulate more WSP than you can usefully spend, so:
1) Don't sweat it, you will have plenty of WSP later so concentrate on what you can get the best use and most fun out of now;
2) I wouldn't recommend spending much (if any) Au on WSP;
3) my recommended order - 2 Tarans; 2 Mags; 1 Carnage; 2 Tarans; 2 Mags; 2 Tridents; 1 Fujin; 1 Stalker

I spent my early WSP in this sequence:
1. 4 Mags + 3 Tarans (gradually)
2. 1 Trident (for TriTuluPin Golem)
3. Carnage + 2nd Trident to complete the setup with one Trident taken from decommissioned Golem
...so far so good...till this point I could say it proved to be all good choices, but now...
4. Now I'm sitting now on 24k or so and not knowing what to buy;)
I'm not compelled to take Rhino - Griff is more capable imo. Stalker - naahh, I guess I would rather get Gary.
I need no more MR, but I may still consider getting 3 Hydra Fuji or HydraSpiral Grif.

My first WP purchase was a Taran to use on my Cossack. My first AU weapon was an orkan for another Cossack. In both cases, though the Cossacks are semi-retired (brought out for fun), the weapons are heavily used still.
Later I grabbed 3 mags for the Gepard that came with the newbie pack. Again the Gepard is retired, only used for fun on occassion, the mags are heavily used.
So again, unless you really want or need a WP bot, weapons may be your best early options.
