I have two accounts (regular and Smurf). In neither one has my Titan ever been attacked by a Hawk. However my regular bots are frequently Insta killed by them. It seems players are dropping Hawk early, sometimes as their first bot, just to get damage and kills. By the time I drop my Titan I don't see any Hawks at all. It actually makes sense to do that since people running resistance bots are dropping them early before titans come out

I found the best coward build Hawk at 1.9 Shredder at 1.9 x2 Viper at 1.11 x2 Drone with x2 lockdowner
Shoot from far, pretty high lock chances. Viper accuracy is not too bad either from 500m away
Enemy shoot back or try to come near? Fly and blaze them with super cowardly laser cannon. Ensure you're flying away back in timely manner.
Repeat
Oh I don't have proper pilot for the Hawk. Now imagine this belongs to Whale with MK2 maxed everything and maxed super drone.

Players with Hawk are reaching obscene numbers like 7.5 million damage. The Hawk is pretty much a Titan. Lol yeah, saw this the other day and seems about right: https://www.reddit.com/r/walkingwarrobots/comments/iwce6k/there_i_fixed_the_game_now_its_more_balanced/

Players with Hawk are reaching obscene numbers like 7.5 million damage. The Hawk is pretty much a Titan. They are killing noobs standing in the open, not using cover and no last stands. Sounds like Manni type matchmaking........ I play in high champ and against smart players its very hard to do that much damage. I see many anti hawk builds as well such as Wasp Leach. When being attacked by a Hawk I do the same thing as I do against AJs, hug walls and watch the angles. As for being a Titan BWAAAAA its health is pitiful and dies fast if not smart. I do run one maxed and one that will stay MK1 9. Just my thoughts from my experience.

It seems players are dropping Hawk early, sometimes as their first bot, just to get damage and kills. By the time I drop my Titan I don't see any Hawks at all. I haven't seen any Hawks dropped first in any of my matches (I may not have noticed). Whoever does that is missing a lot of potential. Most opponents are too far away and are still in close groupings so you have to expose yourself by getting ahead of your teammates as well as having to land near a group of Reds when your ability runs out. I drop mine 3rd or 4th, if at all depending on the situation. I'll sometimes drop it 2nd if I see someone in trouble, I need a revenge kill or the match is nearing the end. Titan's are always about when I drop my Hawk, but it takes a bit of persistence to take down highly-leveled Titans. A Titan with a full health bar will take at least two full charges of Hawks ability. One of the Mings I took down on Carrier (pictured in the post above) involved a lot of hiding and peek-a-boo while my ability was charging for the second shot. Arthurs are a bit more difficult, but they don't hide as easily. The easiest kills are on wounded Titans. That'll probably change when I max everything. Unless they're maxed, the Hawk is not really a Titan killer as the rumors have touted. When you do see Hawks, watch where they land because they're a lot easier to kill on the ground. Playing Dom mode I drop one first often especially on range maps. Allot of players run their tank bots early to avoid titans...... The only time I bother shooting Arthurs is if I have nothing else to shoot at or I can get close and higher than them to bypass the shield.

The biggest drawback I've found is the low ceiling for flight. Often I am unable to go over obstacles. You can't go over the horizontal girders on Carrier and you can't get yo the top of the curved building on Shenzhen. So Reds can hide from Hawks and there's no way do dislodge them. It's pretty stupid if a Hawk cannot soar. I can't even fly over the walls on Moon.
Another drawback is when you lock on a target with the cannon, it decides to fly wherever it wants. If your target flies under you, you can no longer fire and you can't easily fly away...so you're pretty much dead.

Noobs that play like that has always been around and you didn’t hear about people reaching 7.5 mil damage until the Hawk.

Because Manni or someone else didnt post a vid doesn't mean it wasn't happening.

I was actually referring to my clanmates, not Manni So you’ve reached 7.5 mil a lot but now you have a hard time scoring that with a Hawk. That’s interesting.

You go reread it. I don’t play games. I know where this is going and I don’t like to repeat myself. Say it right the first time next time.

So anyone get the new Legendary Pilot yet? I knew Iâd regret investing on an adrian god 「fluffernutter」ing damnit

So I've been getting a lot of practice in lately. I'd imagine it's a little similar to Ao Jun in needing to search for a safe place to land. As my Hawk is now MK1 level 11, I'm able to survive a few more hits. I've actually been able to finish off a few targets after landing. Using cover wisely helps to keep Reds at bay while you whittle down their health bar. Going into MK2 is going to make it a killer. I was fortunate enough to pick up the Legendary Pilot from the FB Giveaway this morning. Now I'll be free from Lockdown and Suppression while airborne. That's a relief. Being locked down in the air means you can lose your target and you're unable to find cover when you land. I spent a lot of Au on the regular Pilot already, but not so much to cause regret.
Now that I've dropped down to Masters II, because of the rework, I may be causing more havoc than I've gotten use to in Champs. My apologies to anyone on the forum I may run into until I return to Champs where OP bots are commonplace.
