I was just looking at Tyr (the norse god) on wikipedia and the 'in popular culture' bit had a list of games the name appears in. War Robots wasn't mentioned. For a second I wondered if Pixonic had been gaslighting me, but I checked my hangar and it was still there. So I signed up made my first edit. Might even have a look at some of the other names here. WE WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN!

I’ve been running mine for two years now, so it’s always been a powerhouse for me. It’s one of the better concepts created by PIX. I don’t use Drones or upgraded Modules, but it more than holds its own against maxed Champs. It still takes a little while to take out a Fenrir at point blank range, but that could be due to using mid-range weapons. It’s fun and you can go straight at Reds when the situation calls for it…and I’m dumb enough to do it most times. I will try to run mine this evening with bendie-bendie loads and see if i like it before proceeding to MK2. I guarantee you’ll like it…

I went back to old school with mine. I will finish the 2 Pun's to MK3 depending on how it works today.
Had Snaer and Skadi on it at 2.5.
Fridays are for fun.

Anyone else find Tyr tough to run with Bendies around? I have a 2.5 Ancient Tyr with level 70 Sigrun, and a Bendie Harpy takes it out in about 4 seconds.

Bendies are tough, but my Pulsars take out Siren and Harpy like swatting flies. Between 500 and 600m is the sweet spot. I've been running wasps and froodles (taken off my shelved Fafnir and a faulty Shell build). I don't have great success and have been considering changing it up. I was thinking of adding stings to increase corrosion, but the reload on the wasps is the real killer. I used the wasps because the corrosion ignores the reflector so less damage returned. I have run Pulsars much. Browncoats4ever - Do they bypass the reflector or have an effect I am not familiar with that is giving you good success against the Harpy/Sirens? I have some pulsars and magnetars that are partially leveled, so could put those on the to-do list to finish them...

I just stupidly pound at them until they fall or return to ground. My Wasps do pretty well too. They’re all maxed, so that could be a factor. If it flies, it dies!

My Tyr has become a mobile anti-aircraft platform. Recently, I’ve been taking down A LOT of Siren, Harpy, Fafnir, Ao Jun and Hawk. This afternoon I got two back to back and four in one drop. I like to imagine I’m the AA battery on the side of an aircraft carrier popping off enemy planes that get past the CAP.

Busted my Tyr out last week..Running wasp magnatar and so far is very good at siren/harpy deletion as well other bots. Bot is only L9 and holds up well, bendies are bad though. Physical shield is the bomb on this bot especially against energy weps. Imo the most balanced bot.

Yep. Wasps are great. I run two, with a pair of marqess. Not maxed yet, but still very satisfying.

Swapped out Pulsar/Shredder a couple days ago in favour of this. Actually shocked at how effective it is so far.

Might want to ask in the various Skyros threads if it will work.
This one is for the Tyr.

Most I see have short range weapons on them since they pop the bubble while on or around a beacon. Gotta be honest i dunno how Also i prefer sniping to brawling If i can stay 6-8 hundred away from a fight im eliminating 60% of the danger id be in at brawl range Ever heard of a cautious skyros? I intend to be the first
