I have 6.7k Au burning a hole in my pocket, and I'm looking for suggestions on what to spend it on.
Here are my current thoughts: -Don't want to spend on any premium mods because I still have a L1 ODU and L1 Fortifier that need to be levelled, which I only do during Upgrade Overdrives. I already have 3 Last Stands anyways. -Interested in jacking up my Santa pilot's skills (Mechanic, Armor Expert, Tough Guy and Energy Shield Expert) to T4 - esp Mechanic as it's a 40% bump over T3. -Promoting Santa pilot (and possibly getting + upgrading Adamant Guardian/Invulnerable Raider). -Possibly boosting some skills on Sigrun. -Possibly boosting Adamant RH on Olga, but I feel that might be a waste in the long run as I'm not sure I'll be keeping that skill. -Flirted with the idea of getting a 3rd Storm for my Ravana but already have L9 Corona so not sure it's worth the investment. Plus my Storm will get ported over to Scorpion if I ever win one.
Open to other ideas.

Desc440: What's your #1 favorite bot/pilot lately? Fenrir? Is it consistently your #1 drop? T4 skills are expen$ive. Stay laser focused on return on investment if you buy them.

Yeah it's consistently 1st or 2nd drop. And as it is a Legendary Pilot tied to a specific bot (I have 3 Adrians too), I shouldn't be rerolling his skills much if at all.

Definitely get the T4 mechanic! That's an easy one. After that, if it was up to me, I would sit on the rest and save it. Pix might decide to have a pilot upgrade overdrive weekend or might lower the cost permanently because of all the player backlash, like they did with the new economy back in the day, and I would want to have a good amount saved up incase one if those happens.

That makes sense. What I might do is get T4 Mechanic and promote him without boosting his skill or rerolling, just so I can continue levelling him.

Wow! Man, talk about being lucky as 「dookie」e!
Not only do I get one of the two skills I wanted, but I get it at Tier 4!
Between this and pulling 5k Au in the Gold chest yesterday, maybe I should be buying some lotto tickets lol.

From the skills rolls that I have done so far, if I roll a T4 skill, it is almost always Invulnerable Raider. If you want it, then congrats. Works well on my Loki.

Thats a freaky bit of luck in a random roll. I thought you were going to select it.
The skill that gives extra damage for 30 secs after capturing a beacon is pretty good on the the fen as well as adamant guardian.

When I rolled to replace Road Hog I got Adamant Mechanic at T4 immediately too on the first roll. Weird that I'm that lucky with my Santa pilot.
I really want Adamant Guardian in my last slot. That way, I should nearly always get a bonus to my Defence (either because we're down beacons or because I just captured one).

Yeh I agree, road hog is no use on the fen. It works really well in domination or beacon run as an opener. By the time you get to the center beacon if it's red doesn't matter and then you turn it if it's blue you hold off on your approach. I run Nic as well with T4 guidance operator and T3 adamant gardian, invulerable raider, armor expert, tough guy and foolhardy. Raider gunsmith is what I'm chasing for my final spot. T4 should be around +7% damage for the fenrir, it's almost +10% for the phantom. I'm running 3 ODUs (+45% damage, +52% with RG) so my calamity/scourges really melt when anyone gets on my beacon.

Yeh I agree, road hog is no use on the fen. Really? I don't have a fenrir, but it always seemed too slow even when in the faster mode. I have the santa pilot as well as the 5% skin, and have considered building one to counter Ravanas. The only thing holding me back is having no HAKs

The only thing holding me back is having no HAKs It's super slow in defence mode, road hog wont help. In mobilty mode it's quick enough but you're vulenerable and the aegis doesn't last long enough to travel far. The fenrir is a really good counter to the ravana. Go for sustained fire.

Most people are recommending HAKs to complement the Fenrirs’ DR I don't know, for about a week I was running 2 HAKs and 1 anticontrol. I switched to 3 overdrive units this morning. The anti control is very useful on the fenrir, cerberus and blitz are always out earlier in the game. Not getting locked down by Lockdown Ammo or shredders before you can get to the beacon is always good. The damage output of the telsa fenrir up close is great, with overdrives even better. Time will tell if it's a good change, my initial thoughts are that it sure seems pretty good. I might reconsider getting raider gunsmith, I think the extra damage with ODUs is enough. If I get modules expert instead, paired with foolhardy and advance healing I'd be able to get back a bit of the extra healing I'm missing from switching to ODUs.

Get (normal preferably, adamant if you want) roadhog as your last one if you go for the skill. It helps to mitigate the fenrir's weakness of speed. Plus seeing as you use it in bacon games it could use the speed especially well.

I had T3 RH for a bit instead of Ada Mech, and tbh, the speed difference was not even noticeable, hence why I went with a reroll.
