I have all the weapons I need, that can be built in the WS so I figured I’d finish my Nightingale. There are a few more bots to add to my collection, but I have the most components for Nightingale at the moment. Just keeping the WS warm. I’m also aiming for level 50.

We are at about the same number of parts.

It's probably my favorite bot at the moment with cryo weapons. What are you going to run?
It goes toe to toe with Ravanas and can get the hell outta dodge when it's cornered.
Yang Lee is its natural predator but it can still survive most encounters if leveled high enough.

But at the rate I'm going, it may be a museum piece for a while. @withnailer

I have about 2500 comps yet to go! a week or so back I was getting comps from clan tasks. Once that changed to Ares(really??) I started making it in the WS. I have the legendary pilot but not sure I have enough gold to get her to a very good level!

Congrats.
I reckon this bot is one of the best bots (if not the best) in terms of its ability to compete against every other bot out there.

I wish i could somehow gift somebody my spare Nighty Gale paint job . I am rather surprised Pix allows us to build their latest and best bots this soon .
I love Nighty but its horribly expensive and time consuming to upgrade .

Gratz on the 'Gale. I've 3 and I'd kinda' like to run a whole hangar of them one day ... one day ...
Cryo is defo my fav and most effective build. Storms and gust works very well too. Literally land behind their heads, like right in their personal space and blast away. Pulsar/Shreddar was good before the update (they're broken at the moment) for MR support. Scourges ...
Great, great bot. Have you decided what you'll put in it?

I moved my Cryros to my Scorp and put Igniters on the Nightingale. Decent damage, but leveling another cryro to get back to that instant bang, phase, then fly. wash rinse repeat. Side note..... I love landing on team Arthurs and shooting folks perched up above. Throws off there targeting sometimes.

Yang Lee is its natural predator but it can still survive most encounters if leveled high enough. In my Nightingale when pursued by Ao Jun, I'll try to fly towards the Jun then circle it, preventing the red from being able to get a lock. My flight time is significantly longer than the Ao Jun, so usually I can wait for him to land, hit it with an Air Support suppression round, then land and blast him with my Cryos/Rime.

Crap, you bastiges. I finished a Ravana in the WS last week and just drained ALL my silver upgrading to lvl 8. Now I see this thread, so I checked my shartpile to see I’ve got 7500 ‘Gale sharts AND Virginia Walker glomming down tea and crumpets in the f’n commissary. You know what this means? This means I have to play a few games now to farm enough silver to fire up the WS again.
You guys can explain to my wife why I’m more of a miserable S.O.B. than usual.

You, sir, shall not regret this action. [Nightingales] are just too much fun to not have one in your hangar. They often get a crapload of honor points towards one's crates as well. Cryo build is just sick. Love it.

Unless these folks are prudently worried about the Nerf Hammer dropping. I'd build a 2nd Nightingale, but I worry about nerfs, so, nope. Keep fightin', fly-boy.

Cryo build is just sick. Love it. And how right you are. Nightingale just popped out of the oven, quick-leveled it up to 3, put a lvl 3 quarker, lvl 6 atomizer, and lvl 9 storm (semi-frankenbot, yes, but that’s all I have that I thought would work on it at the moment). Had two totally crappy games with it, because those teams were stacked with complete and utter morons, but the third game was actually pretty good. Only placed 4th, but the rest of the team were champions and higher-level masters, so I’m ok with that. Didn’t take long to get the hang of the Nightingale. I even chased another one around carrier and ended up taking him out, and stole a Ming kill in the same game. I definitely need another atomizer - that setup seems to do well on this bot. Many days and much silver ahead to level it up now. Between Nightingale and the Tyr, I may have to change my pilot name to Dr.IH8Pigsonic. OH, OOPS ... completely forgot to drag Virginia baby out of the kitchen and into the cockpit!

Ugh. I’d really want one if I hadn’t invested in a tyr. I even have the Legendary Pilot and fancy paint job for it. You guys are making it hard

Virginia is definitely worth some of your Au; how much Au is up to you. Weapons: The consensus is the burstier the damage the better. I can vouch for the ol' freeze build. You will coup a lot of honor points if you focus on healing. Best of luck!

Keep fightin', fly-boy. whales aren't going to have 5 because it would hurt their precious damage stats. I am like 1300 comps from a second but am staying away from it just like I am avoiding a lot of freeze builds because we know those will get nerfed in the future. I run two freezes but i can replace the weapons easily.

You guys are making it hard You could keep the Tyr but what would you drop for the Nightingale? That's the dilemma, right? I kept the Tyr in — yes they both heal, but otherwise serve very different roles. The Tyr is pretty formidable in a brawl with its shields and second light weapon slot, and healing is kind of its second role (to me, anyway), while the Nightingale’s primary role is its healing and suppression abilities in flight, while on the ground it’s pretty vulnerable. For me, it was a no-brainer to ditch the flaming turd for the Nightingale. Ravana is a garbage bot whose only purpose is to maybe grab one strategic beacon and tie up a bunch of reds chasing its flaming butt around. So now I’m running Nightingale, Tyr, Loki and Rayker (and of course beloved uncle Arthur), which leaves me without an initial beacon capper, but that’s ok — one less thing to get pissed off about not having to watch the beacons I’ve capped turn red. Now I‘m just sacrificing goats and small children to the Special Delivery gods for another 5500 Atomizer sharts. And silver ... lots and lots of silver.

Give it time but you may find as your Nightingale creeps up in ability it can become quite a beacon capper/holder.

You could keep the Tyr but what would you drop for the Nightingale? That's the dilemma, right? I really like my current hangar, and Tyr is the only bot that fills the healing role. Currently have: 1. strider 2. raven 3. cerberus (about to replace this with another strider, already have the weapons and pilot for it - just waiting for comps) 4. tyr 5. ravana Definitely not giving up the strider and raven. I'd also be reluctant to let go of the ravana since I just dumped alot of gold for the pilot. Maybe when the ravana nerf hits I'd let it go.

In another post some poor guy had to dump his Cerberus because the lag prevented him from hitting with his ability shot. You might eventually run one Strider and one Nightingale. Nightingale is that fun. But I definitely get the allure of Strider.
