Ok so I'm new to the game roughly 2 weeks or so. I have been doing a lot of research here and through a decent amount of game play and this is my current hanger. I also have a Gepard which I just replaced with the second Griffin and a Natasha that has two Gekkos and two Nash which I may move to twin tridents in the future. My intention is to make the first Griffin a plasma by eventually replacing the Molot Mk2s with Tarans. The second Griffin is up in the air I like the current set up but may switch it up to Orkans and Pinata in the future. The Leo works well for now but will likely eventually replace with a Lance in the future maybe Ancilot (that is a ways out). As for the Patton I may stick two more Aphids on him long term may go with a Carnage in his place - this is one I'm still up in the air on, I had been running him with all punishers. I'm sitting at 14.5M-AG 1816-AU and 820-WSP so this is less about what to do right this second and more about what to plan on in the long term - well aside from possibly buying 2 more Aphids. Oh and yes I know a lot of guys will say buy the 5 slot first and I might - if I do what should fill that slot with a Fujin running Tulumbas maybe just bring up my Natash with Tridents? I haven't joined a Clan or even looked into it much so any advice in that direction would be appreciated too.  |

By the time you save all that gold to get those things you are planing (Ancilot for example), the game might be changed due to future updates/nerfs/buffs and new bot/weapon releases.
You CANNOT go wrong with the 5th slot if that happens, so I would save for that.
You need Orkans and Tarans, those are the only "future proof" weapons in my opinion, no matter what happens they will always be great.
I would consider saving 2400 AU for 2 Orkans if you dont have any, then go for 5th slot. (Dont go for anything gold whise except Orkans before 5th slot)
The 5th slot should be an DB Griffin with Pinatas.
You can go well with a Boa Taran/Orkan in the place of Patton as well, if you consider doing that, move the Aphids to your future Griffin with Orkans.
When you can, change the RDB Griffin with Nathy double Trident/Pins

I don't have the Tarans yet but two are planned for the plasma Griff asap. Aphid Orkan Griff sounds fun what do you think about a 3rd Griff with that in place of Patton and then bring up Natasha to fill that 5th spot. In the long term leaves me flexible in replacing the Leo and I enjoy the Grifs play style but will likely want something to change it up some. |

In the long term leaves me flexible in replacing the Leo and I enjoy the Grifs play style but will likely want something to change it up some. I run 2 Griffins with Orkans, one with Pinatas and one I just bought with Aphids. The current meta demands lots of explosives, but its going to change once the new bots come out (If they do come in their current state). I run 2 plasma builds and 2 explosives, and then a midrange for 5th slot wich is my Fury/Tridents, thats is basically what a good meta hangar will look like, some people likes runing just one plasma bot, but I prefer 2 to keep the balance. |

Working toward some of those changes - still looking for other input and ideas. Also from looking at clan recruitment here it seems to be mostly Silver and Gold so I guess that waits. AG 15.5M AU 755 WSP 1585 Molot MK2 is a place holder on the last Griff until I can get another Orkan - Then save for 5th slot  |

I would buy another Orkan and put it on the Griffin. But as of now, use a Tulumbas instead of the Molot.
The other Griffin is not that good. But 2 Tarans to replace the Molots. A of now, use Punishers instead of the Molot.

Yep Orkan will be replacing the molot when I get the AU and Tarans will be replacing the Molots on the first Griffin just as soon as I have the WSP for them. Why the punishers rather then the Molot MK2s as place holders? |

Hanger is coming along loving the Aphid Orkan Griff now that I have the second Orkan. Still working on leveling things up a bit.  But I am at a cross roads I would like to get my Natasha up and going so that I can rotate a sniper in when needed I'm thinking about saving up for Trebs before I buy the Tarans for the first Griff as the molot mag combo is working right now.  So right now I have the two Nash and 2 Gekkos - should I level the Nashorns and Gekkos then spend the WSP on the Tarans or do I save for Trebs for the Natasha? Or am I completely off base and should do something else? Just looking for ideas any input is welcome |

That is a decent hangar. As for the Natasha, I'd put it in your reserves. Replace it with a Thunder Magnum Leo and make the first Griffin an all Punisher one.
Then start saving for your 5th slot.

A of now, use Punishers instead of the Molot. I would hold on to both Molots and punishers. The update coming is set to buff these weapons. You might have to operate that gunship a little while longer. |

RDB is great, aphid/ork griff is great. Put punishers on the other griff until you get tarans. Get the tarans with wsp first priority they are arguably the best weapon in the game. Natasha's are the worst bot and trebs are too situational for you right now. you have enough range already with the pin/tulumbas. Leo is ok, boa is ok, a beacon runner would be ok. Even another griff if you have weapons for it. Possibly put pinatas on the DB griff and use the aphids on the gep or Leo.
