Bulwark is one of those Pix never threw at me.... almost all the bots I’ve had have been ‘winnings’ - just like all those heavies (though I got sick & tired of waiting & bought my first two from the bargain bin - after that, they gave me plenty)...I thought Bulwark would be great...but I don’t like bots SO SLOW, and I fought the idea of building one in WS until...I just forgot about it. Absolutely no experience driving one, but I imagine it compares to a Kid, speedwise? WS is currently grinding Shredder #3, BTW I will definitely run your suggestions on modules, thanks much for that If you can drive a Leo, you can drive a Bulwark, and it will feel like a sport car. Wonderful! I get that well enough....

Wanted to touch back in after completing the L10 and rearranging my modules.
I’ve made it into M2 on my first run-up. I’ve been having some really enjoyable games, honors improved, damage is up, win-rate is up, silver’s okay. I think I’ll earn my first unassisted gold crate before the clock stops,
Last game, spawned Tyr at C @yamantau, found a POV and calmly pretty much dominated D...so much fun. Boosted Tyr is all that! Just thought I’d share. ?

Oh, look - a question!
I would dearly love to have Road Hog in my Tyr, and there’ll be no dish for another pilot skill, so I’m facing rerolling a skill and working it til the hog shows up.
I’ve been around and around with myself about it - any of the wise guides care to take a position?

Anyone? Mister Bueller?
In case I’m being vague, my thought is to try and turn Tough Guy into Road Hog
...of all my skills, that seems the least crucial (+15 HP/-2.5 DMG) - don’t need the weapons drain, and this puppy is mighty tough, could willingly trade that 15% for more speed

If anything, trade out guidance operator.

Huh...GO is one of those I have on most all my rides...then again, I’ve been making a point of training myself to use manual lock lately (for the stings, you know), so auto-lock is turned off....
Thanks, that’s a genuinely fresh idea, looks like a larger reassessment of skills may be in order.
I appreciate you putting me on the scent!

Not worth it IMO. Go for durability or damage instead. My 2 cents.

Tyr by far because of the healing. Tyr is a tank.
Ao Jun = will be nerfed soon Ares = not gaining advantage

Not worth it IMO. Go for durability or damage instead. My 2 cents. Road Hog is another on most of mine, pretty much all of them are aimed at durability first, repair second, and speed third. Depending on the bot itself, of course. There’s lots of ways to add armor or resistance or pump damage, but bots big enough (my opinion) to be useful are generally too slow for me as-is. Not many ways to boost that past L9, RH is the only way I know. Am I wrong about ground speed being an actual factor in field performance? What do y’all do? Would be sweet if I didn’t find fast bots to be twitchy and fragile, but there it is. My second hangar is small, fast, and twitchy. Gotta learn how to run them so I’ll know how to defeat them, but I didn’t expect to be in masters this long. Or over 4500 - currently at my peak. As it is, Tyr hits the field with an effective HP over 230,000. IIRC. It can survive being caught in the open by anything except an Ao Jun, mostly, but faster to cover without dropping shield seems like a real edge, I could be wrong, which is why I throw out my questions, and why I appreciate y’all chiming in.

Is how I go. A bit of extra speed would be nice, but once those punishers get rolling they eat red up.

I dig it. The only reason Sigrun is on Tyr 2 Is that I like the pilot skills have on Tyr 1’s pilot...then again, I could just swap the pilots between the bots...(yeah, what brain?)

I have RH on most all my bots... tough guys gives you like 30,000 more HP. RH gives u 3 more km/h. So what’s better 30k hp that keeps increasing as u lvl up or a steady 3km/h. I’m close to 10k cups rn..l I prob last ran my tyr around 8k cups. it’s lvl 11. I never found myself wishing it was faster but I def wish it was tougher. ur at like 4K cups right? u can get away with less defense perks.

I took a chance and rolled GO and got...Road Hog! Tried the same trick for Leo, but no dice...now, to see how I like it.
I swapped Sigrun and Wang Fang, could def tell the diff between the pilots. Swapped ‘em back.
