My current hangar. Looking to replace the Gusts and Coronas due to the nerf. Probably going to level up my Blazes for Strider, but have a couple options for the Coronas. 1) Level up my existing Level 4 Wasps. 2) Hold off until I get Atomizers. Question 2 would be whether to run the Wasps or Atomizers on Tyr with Shredders, or swap the Pulsars over to Tyr and run the new weapons on Hover. Any thoughts? Would prefer to hear from players who have experience with both Hover and Tyr. And no, replacing the Hover is not an option I will consider. Merits of the Hover are not the question, just the best choice of equipment given the available options.

I like Pulsars on my Tyr but I like them on my Hover even more. Both are solid builds. I just levelled 2 Punisher-Ts up to 12 and am going to run them with Shredders on my Tyr - it was ridiculously quick and cheap to do. I am actually still running Pulsars until my Sharpshooter skill is fully levelled. The initial run seemed decent but not as good as Pulsars. But I liked it and based on my previous experience with Sharpshooter, once that's levelled up, it'll be a good build and better for brawling.

Any other weapons that you could run?
I'd move the scourges to either the Tyr or the Hover (with the pulsars on the other). Keep the shredders on the Tyr either way. From the videos I've seen, atomizers seem like a better choice than wasp if you can wait until they hit workshop.
Ember / corona Inq (or maybe Glacier / Orkans if you have any spare orkans).
Keep the bulwark as is and the strider gets whatever is left over

If you're a brawler, wasps are not the weapon for you. DPC is high, but DPS is low. If you're a sniper/midrange support they're the knees of the bees. Pulsars, same as wasps.
Cryos and rimes are devastating for hit-n-runs; sustained engagements, not so good.
Scourges and Atomizers look to be effectively balanced at both...but it's hard to beat a weapon that doesn't have a reload, which is why I still run mags on a blitz.

Hover is a Beacon Capper/Harasser, anywhere from 0-600m. Mostly duelling Phantoms, so the Corrosion is nice when their ability is active, or when I'm kiting them. Tyr is a brawler, but the Shredders carry a lot of weight in the DPS department. Wasps may be low DPS, but probably a lot better than Coronas after the initial burst. Plus, I run into a lot of Fenrirs and T-Falcs which give me trouble. So it seems like Wasps could work well on either.

I have 4 pulsars and 4 wasps at 2.3 on a leech and spectre respectively. I can take them down 1v1 but it takes time and space is needed to kite them. it's a bit of a challenge but those weapons pack a solid punch at 600M. Pulsars have the added benefit of lock so you have some breathing room to maintain range. Phantoms can be troublesome as well. For the strider, I've been running either shredders or sparks depending on my mood. If it were me, I would go with atomizers on Tyr if you're planning on brawling.
