Gauss update-
I put em in early to get a feel for them. Only 1.9 and 2x 1.7 in my LR FUn hanger, but even considering the low levels, VERY underwhelming. Rava Wasp (all 1.9s) is more effective and a lot more fun. I’ll take em to 1.9 to be sure, but that’s probably it unless the get a significant buff.
Preferably a buff in the form of both higher damage per charge and, more importantly to me, more charges up to a full ~12 seconds for max recharge. That way a Falcon pilot w Powerman can get a full charge during cooldown.

These need a huge buff for me to consider replacing/supplementing my Tempests, even though it’s only my LR FU trolling hanger. Tempests can dish out 300k+ in 11 seconds to a Titan at 700 m. It’s 280k to a Griffin, just guessing that Titan has at least a somewhat larger hit box, lol. edit - 280k, not 680k damage to Griffin |

I’m having issues with my Falcon since I started back up. Started with 3 Vipers, all 1.10, but not much luck. After a couple of other loadouts, I am now trying out a 3x Glaicer build......not sure if that will work or not.
I do not have newer weapons, so that Nucleon build is no go for me.
What do the experts say is good load out at the moment for a Fangs out kind of guy.....TFal did not impress me with my 1.10 Glory, and dies fast when Titans around.......

I suggest keep trying with the Viper build; it’s still one of my favorite bots in the game. Vipers have good accuracy (barring lag) at distance and tough enough to brawl in a pinch. The most recent “nerf” to Viper was actually a serious buff for Talons Out Falconers. The 10% damage reduction only applied to direct damage (not DOT) and the increase firing rate lets a Falcon unload a full clip. 3x Glacier is a wicked DB pounce build, but very situational, and I prefer a full reload center like Ember for that build. |

With the upgrade overdrive and some spare silver in the coffers I've made the decision to upgrade the Falcon to level 12, and then beyond..... I guess.
I've been playing the classic falcon for ages now and swapped out the pilot in exchange for the for the T-Falcon pilot. Dropped on the Glory 1.11, still only adequate. Good times
Edit level 2.5 now

So, my TFal days were short lived, despite some fun finding hider bots, post ability, and using jump module to go get um.....the problem is one weapon just does not get the damage job done in the long haul. Plus, Titans feast on TFal, same as all regular bots.......
So, back to jump, FO, 3 very strong Avengers, casings flying everywhere.......
Yes, I am a litterbug......deal with it!

Ok, I’m thinking again.....I know, I know..... I started a poll, but I have a cheapo from Pix for a Falcon with Legendary Pilot and emerald skin for 8 bucks.....then, I got my special prize from the event 200 coin lotto, and now own 2 Hornets! So, Green skin, Hornet FO build,  ?? Thoughts? |

Great minds think alike and I’m way ahead of you. All I need is a third Hornet and another Overdrive weekend.  That 2nd Hornet hits 2.1 tonight. |

Hey @bananasplit , I’m working that discount Overdrive hard - all in baby. I switched the maxed Trident for a ‘goon, it matches the firing velocity of the Hornets better.  |

So, I have a new plan. Bully is too expensive to start over again, and as I thought about a dual Hornet mid ranger that can get out of a jam, I suddenly remembered........  Can move well as needed, tough lil guy, maybe ye ole jump module, but more likely LD, kinda perfect. If I get a third Hornet, then I can run Nucleons, Thunders, or Zenit on this. I almost have the Au to get one. |

Finally got a few items upgraded.....able to work on this......cost some gold, but now gone from Test Bed to Prototype:  Sparky locks um down, Hornets crushes their dreams! Thats the plan, anyways.....kinda wish I had a Tempest now......or a 3rd 🐝 One upgrade item was leveling that 1.1 Glacier.......so now,  At my level, this thing is rocking worlds everywhere it goes! |

Wait, you just doubled-down worse than a cheap politician! 1 jump = meh, 2 jumps is insane. LOL, keep us posted. It’s fun. First jump activates 40% Mod Intens. Fly through the air w talons tucked in for safety as needed, then out they come for all 3 barrels. Reserve ability jump for return to cover or pursue fleeing enemies. |

Well, now that I have 2 Falcons, I need someplace for 3 of my 4 Glaciers......so.......  This bot is fun, powerful, and very versatile.....and if it works for a player like Rollo, I could do a lot worse things than emulate him. My first Blackbird, btw, is Vipers, all 1.10, and they shred red! |

Hey Oliver Kloesov , it turns out I am not the only one in Champions League running a Tempest Falcon...with JUMP even, lol. They also have a Sonic Traditionalist...booooo. edit - in other well stocked hangars, they have a Viper/Calam and a Nuc/Thermite. Wahoo!  |

Should I be committed for being so committed to Falcons? This is my 3rd Mk2 and will probably stop this one here (others are 2.12 and 2.9 plus a couple more 1.9s). It’s currently the platform for my Hornet collection 1.11 and 2x 2.3. Eventually they will be 2.4 as well, oooooh yeah!  |

Wee bit of necro, but 「fluffernutter」 it, itâs my thread. Yeah yeah, tFalc is all tanky and stuff, blah blah blah... whatevs. I just got a Living Legend, flipped 180 and nailed that booming Titan Slayer! Iâve gotten a bunch of LLs and even a couple of LLs+, but never a Titan Slayer right after. And I owe it all to this ugly AF build and that CLASSIC, smug-faced, fast jumping SOB piloting it. keep jumping yall  Just got my first Falcon w/ Cormac. I have a long way to go before anything is useful. The only heavies I really have leveled all that well are Avengers and a single Nucleon (and I don’t like it). My options to consider are Avengers, Thunders, and Vipers. I’d have to level the latter two. Any particular recommendations? Skills to focus on? |

Must have skills are mechanic and RH....Avenger Falcon shreds, if you have MK2 available. Vipers are awesome, too, so Sharpshooter helps a lot, too. Others Rollo can help with, I don’t level pilots past sgt.
Mine are just 1.9, and I still enjoy the support Trident/Hornet bird with LD ammo, fun stuff!
Nasty builds like ice rockets are very expensive, as Glaciers must be very high level.
My enjoyment of Falcon started with reading Rollos’ posts and watching some of his vids, which I would love to see some new ones, Rollo!
I consider Falcon one of the best bots in game for skilled thinkers to run. No magic, max moxie!

Regarding Avenger, I have two at 2/3 and a 1/12. I wouldn’t exactly call this a FU Hanger build, but it might be not too horrible until I level something more obnoxious.
My first skill I finally settled on was Wonderworker. Assuming I use the ability frequently I could see that being beneficial.

Speaking of threads that keep dropping off my participated list... I've been running this remarkable raptor in the Springfield/FU hangar since lunar new year:  Lockdown ammo, Mechanic, armour expert, quartermaster, and wonderworker make for a nice second drop to deal with shells in a totally different way from the Ember tFalc in the main hangar. |

My first skill I finally settled on was Wonderworker. Assuming I use the ability frequently I could see that being beneficial. I’m currently running 4 or 5 Falcons across 3 active hangars. All in, Cormac Viper Falcon is one of my most expensive bots and has been the one fully constant build in my main hangar for more than a year. Ao Jun, Mender, Halo Blitz and others have come and gone, but Viper Falcon remains the same. Before the Great Avenger Nerf, that was my go to build by far and with the Shell invasion, it might be quite useful. T3 Sharpshooter is a must. Here’s my Cormac, I would deprioritize the Ad skills.  |

What modules do you recommend as 1st, 2nd, or 3rd tier options? My Falcons get first pick of the Premium Modules I’ve collected over the years. Viper gets Thermonuclear Reactor and Last Stand Other LR get 2x basic NR Brawler builds (Ember/Glacier, Nucs) get Heavy Armor Kit and Last Stand Avenger build is right in between, but I used it more for brawling, so AK. I have 2 Balanced Units, 1 from Loot Box, 1 Giveaway. Eventually those will make it to the top of Discount Event upgrade and I might try em on Viper. Also, I’m really tempted to try 2x ODs, but my Blitz won’t give em up. |
