Redeemer/Embers: You're a bloodlusting madman! Which do you do more often, jump into danger or out of it? The DB builds mostly jump forward although I’m trying to be more careful with the Redeemer/Ember build; it’s a great corner shooter. Avenger build is mixed ~50/50. The Viper build probably jumps sidewise more often than anything else, but it depends on the map. I have a few jump to next cover spots pretty well muscle memorized for CB support on Carrier. And the Tempest build is mostly jump to escape. |

Closing in on 10k cups, now top half of Champions League 7. So far, stats staying strong...  In other Falcon related news, I tossed a few hundred Au into Basil’s Captain skill training. I kept telling him to learn Speedshooter, but he refused. Then he came home with Wonderworker and seemed so proud of his accomplishment that I decided to let him keep it. Speedshooter is not required to empty a full clip w Talons out, so I think he’s done.  |

@rollo: Your stats make me grumpy. Go away . (If you had a maxed AM that would be one thing, but you don’t.)
Nice, keep up the good work. Stay healthy.

I’m so hooked on my Viper Falcon, I really don’t think I could play without her!
Just in love with that build!
BTW, I am thinking about producing another Falcon for a Tempest Falcon.....seriously thinking on it!

Wonderworker would be good as you don't need to jump if you don't want too. |

What do you guys think of the pilot skill that give 5% damage for 7.5% speed? I might try for that for the next promotion. Currently have armor expert, rhog and viper speedshooter (not really going for mechanic/wonderworker since I'm using healing modules)

Currently have armor expert, rhog and viper speedshooter (not really going for mechanic/wonderworker since I'm using healing modules) Falcon is not slow, but it’s not fast......I run RoadHog on mine to get around better. I, myself, do not care for skills that have conditions or “get this but lose that” descriptions. |

Currently have armor expert, rhog and viper speedshooter (not really going for mechanic/wonderworker since I'm using healing modules) For Falcon, I like mobility too much and I am an aggressively moving most of the time. RH, AdRH are sprinkled throughout my 6 Falcon pilots. That’s right, I said 6, don’t judge me. Cormac is my TFalc pilot, just in case I want to run that boring AF build again. You’ve got the top 3 skill choices I’d recommend for a viper build. Maybe stay flexible on the 4th, see what you get. I might consider for one of the module skills instead of the damage skill (lower PC cost, longer lasting, faster recharging). |

BTW, I am thinking about producing another Falcon for a Tempest Falcon.....seriously thinking on it! What are you targeting with your Viper Falcon? I can do it...am working on a second Falcon, but it has Dragoons. I could pull Viper off Bulwark, put on Dragoons, Avengers, Glaciers....use Viper Falcon for Leech/vermin control. |

However, any red will do while I’m working a map...... I should mention the obvious.....I try to let others break shields...Vipers don’t go thru those |

Vipers is also a really good leech killer if you can make the build. I am still gonna make deemers though... |

Most frequently going up against phantoms. And w decent accuracy at 500m, I try to trigger as many BBs as I on the way in. |

I may give it one more try, but twice I’ve tried Deemer Talons and just don’t like em. That half second shooting delay messes with pounce timing, for me anyway. |

At least when the pounce skill kicks back in, as it takes a few try’s to remember your not a T-Tank anymore, lol |

At least when the pounce skill kicks back in, as it takes a few try’s to remember your not a T-Tank anymore, lol Got me feeling some kinda way about my T-Falc now. It's been a favorite off and on, even though it's boring I use it to kill Leeches primarily which is very satisfying, before that it was my favorite Ares killer when they were more meta. Also a fairly effective beacon runner, defender, and a good tool to draw reds back to their home for a while (in hopes the blues will take advantage) I don't have 3 heavies leveled for it, but I keep scrolling through what I have and thinking about what would be worth the expensive slog to start having more fun with the Falcon. Do you have a clear favorite? I'll go back and read the thread for insights. |

Best cheap....3x Avengers, a true rush Best vermin killer....3x Vipers, a true rush except shields- don’t forget Tyr has shield(I did) Best insta kill.....Glaicer/Exo combo.....Boom Best Toll....3x Chimera, Tridents, or Tempests.......messes with Mings! Enjoy! |

For me, Falcon wins for sure. The mobility >> 3 weapons always on. And you just haven’t lived until you’ve hit 3 kills in 1 jump, including that pesky critter at your six. |

Enjoy! Yup, good list. I will add that I find DB builds more effective w a solid brawler center, Redeemer, Ember or Avenger (but watch that long reload). Also, once upon a time, Glory. And now that shotties are better balanced, you can win most 1 on 1 vs a Leech. Best AM mitigated, the other TT - Tempest. WIth Sharpshooter skill, you get 51%+ accuracy at 700m. I haven’t tested other ranges, but would expect the same improvement. And, in case you missed it, I am running 4 Last Scams in this hanger. Not as necessary on LR builds (don’t have one on Tempest build), but VERY helpful for pounce brawling CQC. |

Yeah, including training rerolls, here’s about 6k Au just sitting on the sidelines. Like the Boss sings, he’s just hanging out in the bar, talking about those Glory days....  |

I'm back on Ember tFalc,boring I know, but the little fella just wins matches.
Viper/double Dragoon, was my last experiment, a lot of fun in the mid-range.
However, Avenger/double Glacier (or exodus) oFalcon is the Mech I dream about at night, best fun/effective ratio in the game.

In other news - scary forum name, great books, can’t wait for the third which I think will be published about the same time I get a set of Cryo weapons sufficiently leveled. |
