This game is challenging enough with the Pay To Win attitude installed by Pixonic, but when some non-Apple users take short cuts to wins, it takes away some of the fun of playing.
There is a difference between the shots of my Atomizer bouncing off a red Falcon, due to the DR, and the shots hitting a Tyr...for 30+ seconds, and do no damage.
I can attack a lvl 150 Ming for 30 seconds and do damage.
Anyway...rant done. If this violated the COC, will delete the thread.

A high leveled Tyr with all of the Physical shield skills can tank a whole lot of energy damage... the Legendary Pilot skill and the Physical Shield Expert skills alone already help... and if they had any other shield boosters on... I can see that being what frustrated your damage.

Sounds like normal physical shield behavior. I did see a Inquisitor that i couldn't damage with Tarans until a shield breaking animation and smoke appeared on it and then I killed it. It was like it had an invisible physical shield. Haven't seen that one again. I was almost impressed.

Bwaaa I dont think an Atomizer is the right weapon against my tyr with all the bells and whistles including 2 fortifiers. Go look at the Tyr thread to see mine. I laugh at solo Ravana and leeches and about everything else if alone.

I would use what you have leveled or available until you can decide for yourself. If not running fortifier its a tough call. Thermo gives extra healing as well as damage and of course armor increases your ability to tank damage.
Sorry not to have an absolute answer but allot depends on how you run it. Running flames you need to be pretty close but keep at least 100 meters to minimize the shot builds and scourge type weapons that do insane damage up close. Keep that shield up when fighting no matter what. Look for a good way to back out behind cover and pop your ability heal then go back in for more. Also make sure to drain out your flames if possible so they are full when you go in.
Like allot of non totally OP bots there is a learning curve, just be smart and you will get it.
PM me if you have any questions. I will be away from here over the weekend as I only get on the forum while at work but I will check back ASAP.

High level mings are notoriously difficult to inflict damage upon. I unloaded several (like 8 reloada) 2.4 pulsar clips into one this morning, with some help from teammates, before i could bring it down. I can down a non-plasma mid level ming with maybe 3 or 4 reloads but maxed ones, they're impossible to damage without concentrated fire from the team.

Not to derail, but this is hugely helpful to me, as I’m about a week away from finishing up a Tyr in the WS, and I just remembered I have a moderately leveled set of scrooges and a spark on a Hoover that I could repurpose, and another almost completed spark. I was originally thinking of going with pulsars and sparks, and still might try them just to see what they’ll do, but the zapper set seems to be doing well for a lot of players. Anyway, where is this Tyr thread of which you spoke earlier? I looked, but didn’t find one with your setup.

Tesla works well...only issue is that your pilot HAS to have Guidance operator. Kind of a wasted skill, but Tesla can rock on a Tyr.

I'm going to call out IOS snobbery when I see it.
"Android players are trash! What? A player I can't instantly kill? Cheater!"

Just got killed by a leech with a last stand pantheon hack, deployed after its last stand wore off. Purple shield with visible grid. Was considering quitting until I saw that. Now I’m sticking around strictly to expose and annoy ptw hack whales. Pixonic is already going to be facing a class action lawsuit once the silver player base puts down the pipe.

To be fair though, he rants at anything that dares to be competitive to his completely maxed out everything.
