As a Nightigale pilot I truly appreciate the connection we share with Arthur pilots in game. Just hop on the shoulder of one and form a nearly unbeatable tandem to march to a game winning beacon, the more Arthurs the merrier. I once ushered two straight down the middle of carrier map, nerfing and wiping out reds, and grabbing beacons right up to the door step of the red spawn. One arthur was high level, so i mainly kept the Master League low level one alive. Pretty sure that Masters League arthur player had a huge grin on his face Share your stories here.

I do the same with my Nightingale and I also love when they do the same when I am in my Arthur. Nothing beats a good teammate who understand teamwork!

Noden Nightingale pair is equally interesting, imo.

My clan mate ch4xprt and I have been rolling this duo for minute. It is truly one helluva team. We have stayed in the fight together for well over 6mins many times. Then when the reds figure out whats going on it is just too late. Or we will have half of the reds tied up and the other blues start the push. It has gotten even better now that I put Lockdown Ammo on the Nightingale. I didn't know that Lockdown Ammo works with the surpression ability. Now I just surpress and lock all incoming, and let the big guy do the rest. Plus the Arty is great to hide behind while you recharge/reload.

Probably my favorite is to heal a Ravana from around 20% health. Ravana does Fightfightfight and wins the skirmish. "Man I'm almost dead. This stinks." Along comes Ollie and gets him back to like 80% health. Fun.
I also enjoy it when the crappy comms work. I used my Nightingale to help take back our upper beacon on Castle. OK, it's blue again, now what? I was just getting ready to blast over to the Red's upper beacon when a Blue shoots me from behind, "Whatchoo want?" And I see his health is pretty low with a lot of black bar to heal to. Ah! Blue bro wants a heal. On it! Heal him up and off I go to the Red beacon anyway.
Healing/suppressing are great fun, but Mobility/Holding Beacons are right in there as well. Looooove my Nightingale.

Never knew about Lockdown Ammo, supressed and frozen in front of a steam roller is definitely an fml moment. Will need to try it And yes that Arthur shield is key to keeping the nightingale healthy

The strangest I've seen is Quantum Radar on a Nightingale. I was in my Ao Jun and we were seconds from winning with one Nightingale left on the other side. I was flying towards him and he suppressed me and I was all... It makes sense with all the Yang AJs running (flying?) around, but PS works so well for me that I hadn't thought about it. lol

But I am thinking it was worth it.

So you like the Quantum Radar on the Gale before that? I assume it's a survival tool? Did you try it with PS too? I'm thinking PS would be more useful as a brawler early in the game. I think I see more Yang pilots out mid-late game hunting Lokis, AJs and Gales.

I am a bad, bad man. I run my Nightingale first most the time so it is normally dead before it sees a friendly Arty. I do go give loves to Arty and others now that I won a noodles though.

Like you said, most Ao Jun's will be coming out to play then. So I would neuter them with the Quantum Radar. As far as brawling goes, the Nightingale can hold her own. Mine is 2.6 with 220k hp and a lvl2 Heavy Armor Kit and 2 maxed regular armor kits. Pretty damn tanky for the size of the bot. Not to mention that the Gale is pretty light on her feet too. Oh and Deadeye , that might have been me surpressing your Ao Jun. No hard feelings I hope. I also play against JN Harley a lot. Him and his Ming are probably sick of me and my Gale. LOL

Yeah, he is a damn tough one. I have actually gotten lucky and had him on blue team a few times. I support his Ming as I would my clannies Arty. Not that he needs any help. LOL

I use Quantum Radar on Nightingale too. It’s not really for survival and I can dodge most other Quantum Radar reds or land. It’s really big for titan escort duty - nerfing a glacier Ao Jun when it pops up can save a titan from death and healing nurses it back to keep the push going.

I think I picked shield Breaker. Now that I think about it, I hardly use the active, but Shieldbreaker+Cryo is nice.
Nightingale is a relatively busy bot because it doesn't have a "downtime".

Basically I’ve been using the Quantum Radar with the pulsar/shredders to nerfbat the pesky Ao Juns. It’s highly amusing to see the AJs fly in close to the Arthur then get shut down by the puksars/shredder and get forced to land in front of an Angry Arthur. The LD ammo might just be more generally useful, but I don’t like AJs on principle as they bypass the shield pretty severly.

I dont have a Nightingale, but I do love to follow Blue Arthur's around with my Tyr or Wayland. Healing them up, and keeping anyone from getting behind his shield. ***** PSA to all Arthur pilots, do not spawn on the middle beacon unless you have the 2 beacons behind you secure.

Okay the relationship isnt always that great! We were up in this match and I was signaling to an Arthur that I got you, lets get that center beacon and lock this up, even took some major hits from a red ming trying to get his attention with my gale, but he just wanted to stay behind this perfect wall he found and shoot at mings from afar.......we would of won that match
