How much should a DB kill or critically injure on average?
I ran it on a Griffin and now on a Rhino.. So far had mixed experiences..
On Griffin I definitely averaged more than one kill.. On rare occasions with right conditions 3 or 4..
Good thing about a Griffin is its maneuverability.. Disadvantage is often one could not manage to come in distance or if arrive there then already half dead..
With the Rhino I almost always press the DB with full health but most of the times die directly after one use.. Can't run away with a Rhino.. And can't maneuver at all away from splash or any type of weapons.. Only thing one could do is put shield back on and stand there till reload.. But usually it doesn't make it alive till next clip..
So on average 1 to 2 kills for me..
My DB is currently level 6 Pinatas and level 8 Orks..

For me, one salvo will severely damage anything with the HP of a full-health Griffin, but will probably only reduce a Leo or Lancelot to half HP.
I use my DB Griff as a heavy hitter though; it's not necessarily a killer. Hit and then hide/run. Usually, I don't even wait until I've emptied the Orks -- only till the Pinatas are done firing.
It takes quite a bit to unload the Orkans and you may be in a hot zone. As most players target a DB since it's one of the most dangerous targets on the field, getting back to cover is important.
The effect is, I might only kill 2-3 bots (maybe even none), but I rack up a lot of damage.
But that may be just me -- my hangar is quite underlevelled compared to my current league average.

Step 1- go with a high priority blue that attracts lots of attention like an ancilot
Step 2 - hide and wait till reds shoot at your friend, while silently whispering "I'm sorry it has to be this way"
Step 3- while reds are distracted, dump your load
Step 4- do a 180 degree turn, activate assault mode and don't look back

You can't run away.. As long as you're there you stay there.. They should make it go backwards at least.. |

Anything you put on a Rhino, a griffin wears it better.

Averaging 2 kills in a single bot is actually really good. Considering most of the top players average 6 kills. The rest of us at lower leagues at around 4. That's half your kills in one robot.

DB Griff
1) do cornershooting with your orkans before unloading
2) save your jump to evade, rather than to advance, since a)you will be sitting duck if you cant instagib the enemy.b)evade other DBs
DB Rhino
1) Try to go with other bots (preferably a ancilot), since you are helpless with shield up
Both
1) wait for the opponent to come around the corner, rather than advancing on them. That way you start releasing your volley earlier
2) choose your targets wisely. If the bot is moving fast, its probably a stalker or gepard that can evade your volley entirely. If they have an ancile, make sure another team mate is going for him. Ideal 0HKO targets are Galahads, Rhino, Lancilots.
