I’m leveling a leech right now and plan to move the weapons to a typhon when I get my hands on one. I like the mid range and have 2 wasps and 2 pulsars now. I already have a few bots running the atomizer family and don’t want to level anymore since they are about to get a nerf.
I’ll probably start the leach off running 2 wasp/2 pulsar eventually want to build 2 more of one of them and was looking for feedback on which is a better choice.

Ok but maybe put atomizers on a typhon instead cuz I think they work better for a robot with less health like typhon

Why not keep the combo? They're the same range, both have good effects, the reload times are different enough that you probably wouldn't get caught in a completely pants-down situation, and you can put the silver you'd spend on building new ones into upgrading the ones you have. Also saves you from having to make a choice.

I prefered the quad Pulsar build cause then I specialized in MR root/harass. The Wasps have the advantage of being very cheap to upgrade though, so keep that in mind. I wasn't a fan of mixing cause then at my weapon levels, I always felt I either wasn't rooting fast enough or doing enough DOT. If you're weapons levels are high enough, I thinking mixing the two will be great.
Another thing to note, the Wasps are very sneaky in that usually your target doesn't even realize that they're being hit with it until it's too late.

I’m looking at 19.5m per lvl after MK2 lvl 4 right now. |

I highly recommend 2x Pulsar, 2x Hussar......seriously....... I changed to this on my Pulsar Spec, and it is way stronger IMHO. |

Hussars hit harder per shot and unlike Pulsars, don't miss. And the longer reload time is offset by the Pulsars quick reload. |

I think Wasp may auto-lock like Stings, that might be what you're thinking of. I ran into a guy with a quad Wasp Leech on Canyon yesterday and at 500m, he clobbered my Raven. 5-6(x4) good hits on me before I could jump away and then I watched my health bar drain by 20% more. I went from full health to probably 25% in that one engagement. |

I been running Pulsar/wasp leech for some time now. My plan was to level 2 more wasps and just had the leveled pulsars to throw on.
Now I have 4 leveled wasps but havnt made the change. Pulsars short reload means I’m not defenseless for as long and the LD is great, both to stick reds for long range but also to slow em down when they get close and wasps (or leech ability) are reloading.
I thought I read pulsars would likely get nerfed with shredders so I may end up going all wasp when/if that hits. For now just riding it.
Also have some suppression chips for this build and that is icing on top, especially for titans not named Arthur.
