^^^Great question.^^^^ The release vid seems to imply you have no choice but to go back.

Mk2 Scorpion would be impressive, but an MK2 hawk would be.......... impossible since it wasn't in this update.

Its in my component workshop right now. Hawk? I see the problem. It doesn't appear you can build hawk or scorpion components, I can't seem to transfer components to Scorp or Hawk. But I think you can collect components that you open from boxes or earn from clan tasks. Hawk and Scorpion is in the component storage. Scorpion is just below Pursuer and above Fenrir on the list. Hawk is the last robot on the list just above Flux weapon.

My 2.5 Fenrir eagerly awaits to feast on the bones of Scorpions and Hawks. :-D

Edit: here's a screenshot showing Hawk in storage. It is not in workshop. Looks like a Pix screw up.. Sorry for calling you a troll!!!

Question is will it ever by available for purchase? I recently won a Noden, gotta say it takes quick thinking and fast fingers to play it but it is a TON of fun!

Otherwise, all of the meta chasers would immediately purchase it. I believe Pix is going to want to spread out the new bots so that you have to either get lucky and win it in a box or spend a lot of money to randomly obtain it.

Why just “give it away” for $75 or $100 when you can get those suckers to spend $300 on event tokens instead?

Exactly I believe same w noodle .They need something in titian chest for guys to spend big $$ on.It use to only be like one event then they would bring it out to market to purchase.Now Pix has hardly any new money making ideas so they will try to drag out their scams as long as possible.

If you are at the components page and click the gift box at bottom right a list of all your components appears in decreasing order. If you win parts from event, they will show up there even though the scorpion is not yet in workshop. If you haven’t collected any parts it will not show up.

Yes, but Hawk has not been released yet but appears in storage! They've made this same error in previous releases. Edit for Clarity: Scorpion was a new bot in this update, Hawk was not. Pix screwed up by displaying Hawk in Storage. I don't think some people in this thread understand that.

My 1st Scorpion encounter and it was maxed. It teleported behind my RDB Griffin in DOM mode Valley and took a big chunk out of it but teleported away when I pop tarted and 「dookied」 out some Tulumbas out of my pants. He even brought a buddy along to seal club 5k Champions League players. They like to do that. Bad teammates and all.

Scorp is kind of a glass cannon, a hit-and-run specialist. I’m not complaining as the bot actually feels balanced.

(quick question with Scorpion, can you teleport to the behind your target and STAY there, not teleport back?) The video i watched showed a Scorpion on the Castle map falling to his death in the ravine, but using his power and landing behind an opponent.....if he does have to go back it is going to $u(k for him when his ability runs out.

Just IMO. Valid point. Stats-wise it seems stout, but in-game it doesn't feel that strong. Granted I'm still learning the finer points, so maybe with some pilot skills & more seat time it'll live longer & the initial impression will change.

I haven't played it at all or even faced one yet so I don't have any experience with it. I have owned bots though that look way better on paper than they feel during real play so I understand that 100%. If it is not OP right now then I am sure Pix will buff it to help their sales of it. Or nerf its counters. We all know their MO lol.

Fate (and a bit of gold) dropped three Legendary ones in my lap a couple of months back at the same time. That was not a good month.

Fought a guy yesterday who had 2 scorpions in his primary hanger already. Neither were 2.12 yet but both were getting close. My Ravana took his first one down barely and then when he dropped the second one I was dead.

They're out there in the wild. This one did a good job of hanging out on the red side of the ramp in yam center beacon then telporting behind blues making their way up the ramp blue side. Rinse and repeat until AM is charged. Then float around like a doofus in a whale balloon going in circles shooting murder beams until the game is over.
