I'm sure some of us have a Hawk, and some of us will be getting a Hawk sometime soon before the ultimate nerf. But while we are at it, what in your opinion is the best hawk build?

spectre729 : Hawk. Embers, Quarker, ECU, AC, Last Stand, Thermonuke, Deathmark, a drone that adds damage when I use DM. Embers are great against everything especially Arthur. Quarker gives me a smidge of range. Ember/Quarker are Tier 4 weapons. I'm pretty fixed on AC and Last Stand. I debate over Thermonuke or Overdrive. ECU is insurance that does pay off more often than not. It "can" buy me just a few more seconds to get to go flying again.

great! next step: figure out how to tell this information to my dad, who just won a hawk... Your Dad's Hawk build will definitely be a rock/paper/scissors issue. There is no one perfect build. I could put two ECUs on it but that puts me down on ability beam damage. So I compromise with one ECU. one Tier 4 light weapon. Embers are kind of an emergency weapon. Heavy damage output if I get caught short. If lucky, stick it to an Arthur. What they say is true, the hawk is sticky and it's easy to get hung up on stuff. Odd. |

I won a hawk and had it since release day. So far glacier rime has done me very well.

Try to get the Hawk pilot. No suppression and lockdown while in flight. I havent been blessed yet to win one, but current setup is Nucleon & Quarker, two ODs and Last Stand.

It was first drop of the game in Shenzen and he was on my team, so I could only watch him so much, and didn't tend to see who he was shooting at if I was seeing him shoot. But I grabbed a screenshot. He was running a drone too. To be honest, I was less curious about how it was playing and more about how much it cost. Also, I wasn't able to see his hangar afterward.  |

I'm running Avenger/Shredder but I'll be changing to Nucleons eventually. Avengers are pretty effective 1.9 when someone tries to sneak up on you while charging. A lot of my kills on the ground are Shredder though. I use PS to give me an added window of safety.

Try Spark Calamity or Shredder Viper (something that has range or can lock/slow down enemy)
In my opinion, much better compare to taran redeemer or freeze weps.

I got lucky and won a hawk. Need some suggestions on weapons for it. I already have the energy guns (nucleons) on two other bots and want to use something else to diversify my hanger a bit.
Options:
Glacier/rime (currently using and seems really weak)
Ember/blaze
Calamity/spark
Any suggestions?

ｆｒｅｅｒιｄｅ: Because I'm a hopelessly reckless Hawk pilot, I have to do the above. Those modules got maxed this past weekend. For modules, an Overdrive Event is as cheap as you'll manage. Lower beam power, yep, but for me "He who fights and runs away lives to fight another day." Without my ECUs I die in .000003 milliseconds after I land, or so it feels. And like I said with the above I can snag a beacon now and then. As you can appreciate, one might go for a tank build or a full beam power build, I decided on full tank. Of course there are compromises in-between, but since I have the pilot skill for ECU and the Fortifier module, I figured I'd go full tank-mode.

Flux Gekko! No, just kidding  DON'T do it. This was my original Natasha build but then, oops, I won a free Hawk unexpectedly (Pixonic made a surprise announcement saying that those who asked the best drone questions on Discord would get free Hawks). It's a very fun build for me, and as people already know, the hanger I have, I'm stuck with as long as I'm alive. |
