Wasn't really sure how to title the thread/my ask. Trebuchets are a weapon system I don't have in my lineup but I'm sorta getting an itch. As context I'm in Diamond II on iOS running a mostly 8/8 hanger.
I guess what I'm curious to ask is how many Trebs do people have on bots before they find they are a good use of the mech or weapon itself. For example does it make sense to have just 1 or do you really 2 or ideally 3 before they start to do enough damage to really perform? It is one thing to be on the receiving end of a Fury running 3 at max level but if YOU have just 1 do you have the feeling of contributing and being active on the battlefield but in the end aren't adding a whole lot of value? If you are going to run these on a non Fury you then have to work in some companion weapons. Ideally I suppose you have some Gekkos and while I have the gold to purchase them upgrades will take a few weeks (hateful). I've thought about maybe giving a Zeus/Treb Carnage a try but I could probably count the number of times I've ever seen that on one hand. This leads me back to the question at hand (no pun intended =).

I havent played with Trebs yet, but what I see being the best option for them are 3 on Fury and 4 on Butch. A Natasha with Gekko/Treb would be good, although I prefer her with Nashorns for 1100.

Triple Treb fury is good but Quad Treb butch is the best. Try it on Yama or on Springfield if you spawn near the Dam.
I think at least three is needed to be effective.
-Dammit ninja you beat me to it.

You need 3+. 2 with 2 Gekkos. Anything less is just an annoyance.

Thankfully the Butch is that rare. Otherwise it would be a meta bot. To some extent the Doc too.

Heh, all of the weapons you listed are 1100 For the op, 2 on a carnage is annoying, rarely deadly, but annoying nonetheless. 3 on a fury is really where it's at.
