So I copied the champion league setup my hangar is two Lance two Griff one trident Fury.
I been looking to switch one of my DB griffs to my doc, I tried tulus and also hydra. Tulus are great but just so slow on reload and firing speed is slow. Hydra doc is fun actually, people will try to assassinate you at all cost, but the damage it does is weak.
My question is, does anyone do different weapon setup and what is working for you?
Tulus/orkans
Orkans/taran
Orkans/orkans
Tulus/taran
Im Looking to replace my DB Griff for my doc

I tried Tulu / Orkan combo but found out that doc is not suitable for knife fighting. So I changed back to 4 Tulus and this works perfect.
Another Doc I run with 4 Hydra - not leveled yet as much as it should be but it´s really fun to play with and see enemies getting confused.
As I said before - Doc is not a knife fighter. I see guys trying Taran and Orkan - they die quickly

I would imagine the Tulus being a fairly good fit - but you would need to take advantage of their 500m range and don't get involved with the brawl... Orkans - expensive and are drawing you closer to the fight where a orkan/aphid griff might work better Plasma would seem a waste as they tend to be more "constant fire" I am thinking you need a weapon that is "big punch ...pause ...big punch" to make the best of the quick draw ... So, what he said ^  I am not at all jealous of the bot ... |

Congratulations. I think you just hit on the perfect balance between annoyance factor and effectiveness. you have just one upped the tri hydra Fujin. The quad hydra is absolutely annoying and quite effective.

I love my Doc, easily my favorite bot now. I've run it with Tulus and Hydras (here's my guide on the Hydra Doc). I've recently reverted to Tulus for a new challenge, and they're as solid as I remember. I've considered trying Orkans, but the Doc may be too fragile a delivery system to make that work effectively. |

I've tried out tulumbas taran, no way is to squishy for any knife fight
Tulu/hydra is not bad cause you can engage enemy with hydras then switch to tulu mixing annoyng effect and dmg
But definitelly full tulu is what i like the most, uf used properly is a great mid ranger, with only lvl 6 tulu i've managed to do 400k dmg only with him in some games

Personally I rarely keep the Doc in my active hanger these days. When I do run one it's with either Orks or Tulu. I find the Ork version useful on tight maps but fragile. To counter this I look for an Ancilot blocker to hide behind. If the two of you get into for example the beach-side gap on Power Plant you're absolute murder to dig out. Without the Ancilot blocker I find it much less effective- invariably a DB Griff is going to jump by and ruin your whole day, because at the range you need to use Orks properly backpedaling is only slightly effective. Thus I'll typically leave it out of my hanger... in favor of the DB Griffin you're already using. |

I myself use a doc, and i found it to be less of a glass cannon than most people give it credit for. It's actuall ygot more health than the Rogatka, Golem, and Patton, and more physical hp (not including any type of shield) than the Galahad, Carnage, and Fujin. It's also lightning fast. The only problem is that people seem to want to use them like seal-club geppards, and just run it. I myself use Tarans and Orkans when running a doc. Tarans in he overhead slots (primary), and Orkans in the secondary. Fire Orkans as often as possible to out-dps plasma bots, and then swap to Tarans to either finish off whatever you are shooting at or out-range a bot with missiles. If you can avoid a fight with something focused on you, do it. If you can attack a light bot, do it. You can sort-of chase down Gareths and other light bots, and definitely almost all mediums. Also, since you have Orkans in the secondary slot, when you switch to Orkans you can corner shoot.

Like the idea of being able to deal effectively with physical as well as energy shields but doesn't it compromise it against both by having 2 sets of weps for 2 different occasions?
