I’m really on the fence about some upgrades. Anyone think upgrading EMG worth it? Most of my EMG is 1.8/1.9, but I need real world experience to see if they are worth leveling higher. Since the nerf, they seem ok, but will higher levels pay a return? Pulsars and Goon family, very expensive to level.....but is it really worth the expense? I do enjoy ice rockets, but also very expensive....most of mine are 1.8 atm.....worth it to level? I suppose this is the big question for most of the 99%, is it worth paying out for good weapons the price of leveling? As for bots, all of mine are 1.9, except my MK2 Fen....any thoughts about taking bots past that? Already have full speed, and some bots get more than just hit points. Maybe it’s just me, but if something can be upgraded, it is hard for me to just leave it at a lower level, just because. Anyways, any thoughts on this stuff would help this old cat guy out! TIA Lots of good advice up there and I’ll contribute my 0.02 I think yes on Flames, Pulsars and Mags Yes on Blitz (and of course Falcon, lol) No on EMGs, Ice, Goons For new stuff, Magnetars are stupid OP, upgrade em fast to maximize your fun but I think we can expect a 25%++ nerf on that one. The fireball weapons just look cool, that’s reason enough to upgrade if you get some, lol. The journey to 1.9 is pretty easy, 1.10 difficult, 1.11-12 Overdrive discount is mandatory and you should REALLY like the equipment. If/once you hit 1.12, taking it to 2.4 is easy, past that is seriously diminishing returns.

Rollo Tomasi: For now suppression chips plus ice rockets are thumbs in the reds' eye sockets. After the drone re-work, who knows, but for now if you've got 1.9 rockets lying around... I've been thinking about building more flames, but, jeesh that means I'll induce a nerf-cycle if I do. I've got two heavies, two mediums, and two lights. That'll have to suffice.

Yeah, Cryo weapons are excellent for effects triggering, decent on DPS, just not so great on DPM. And I’m about the same here on Flames. I did take 2 extra Igniters to 1.9/1.10 for testing of a 4x Typhon, but not convinced yet so those are backburnered in the upgrade plan. Pulsars are such trolling fun on that I might go that direction. I wouldn’t mind having 2 more Blaze, but gotta keep that nerf-mitigation diversity going.

As much as I get excited about Pulsars they are niche-y and can be a problem when trying to grab a beacon. They are pretty crappy against a Shell stampede as well.

Yeah, that’s probably why my set is still 1.9/1.10, lol. They keep getting pushed to the back burner. Now, if I can only win some more fireballs....

I got sick of sitting on level 6-8 forever because upgrades cost millions. My whole hangar uses punishers now lol. Easy to upgrade, get the job done, probably won’t ever be nerfed (please).

Trying to decide between taking two Hussars to 1.11 or taking my Typhon from 1.9 to 1.11.

Besides, Hussars are awesome unless shields are out there.....do you see many Shells? Fire, lead and rockets seem to keep those guys calmed down some.....

I don't tend to focus on Shells anyway, but yeah, I'm thinking it's going to be the Typhon getting the love.
