Iteration 2. I scourged my Fujin up. So far the hangar is doing well, but I just finished my Pix mandated losing streak and am now on my climb back so matches have been easier.

Started trying this little fellow and have had a couple of really fun games. Very much worth a try.

My favourite Fujin. With jump pack and you have pseudo Golden Invader. Lots of promise in this relic once I get some more skillz. Because girls like boys with skillz.

That Fujin is exactly the same as mine! Well, except for levels, heh. Weapons have continued to slosh around as combat data comes in. The Phantom is now a 600m build and honestly my star performer. Fujin has proven its worth with the Scourges. Jaeger is now on the infinity bandwagon. Falcon mainlines the L8 Calamity backed by twin Vipers. Lastly the Hornet Shutze bats cleanup. Got a Hawk kill with him the other day and delayed an Arthur who really just needed to aggressively advance on me or sit back on the bridge in a come from behind win on Castle. I really enjoyed watching my Loki teammate flip hill, home and finally the bridge beacon while I played peek a boo with a monster that could have crushed me with impunity. Beacon awareness people!

Nice to have you in the club Foxy. Look at that Little Helper Schutze full of Ancile goodness. Wish I had some Pulsars.

Last year was my 12mk2 year. It's made this season resource wise easier. Doesn't take much to get a bot to L9. I've been finding the 500mtr - 600mtr the sweet spot for most builds. I do play quick game to force myself to find the happy medium across all maps and modes. Keeps me on my toes. It's a very underrated tactic using your bot as a decoy/distraction. Going down the empty side when there's a mass brawl and drawing reds from the fire fight. Protecting beacons and forcing the red to make the wrong move.

Level 8 is my cutoff for non legacy weapons for expert league play. It's eelarively cheap and easy to get to 8 but very expensive beyond that.

This is hard with level 1 stuff. Pulsars hit hard though even though I have a level 6 and two level 1s. My level 1 Phantom has way more HP, firepower, is faster and has DR over my level 10 Stalker. Talk about light bot power creep

Talk about light bot power creep Yeah. A level 9 Phantom is pretty solid in a brawl with the magic activated.

Level 8 is my cutoff for non legacy weapons for expert league play. It's eelarively cheap and easy to get to 8 but very expensive beyond that. Same. I really start to stall even at L7. For a while now I've been trying to base level all my weapons in groups of 4 to L6. Even that's hard as Pix and the WS keeps theoretical new weapons at me. My Phantom and Bully have capped out at L9 now, which is my main aim each month. I'm gonna cap the Falcon off at 4mk2 before the end of the month.

Due to Pixs Bacon grab a slight Hangar change is required. Only because I wants that Future Lady Hysteria medical device.

Review time. The all unimportant stats. And the beast of a hangar that got that 72% win rate. Started the month in mid Diamond 2 and moved it on up to pushing towered Expert. The BotsPhantom: Upgraded from L5 to L9. This Bot is wicked. In DOT mode it's beastly. I haven't really played DOT weapons that much and I now love them. This is a 5 Star Bot. Fujin: Scourge build is sooo made for this Bot. I did try a few others Weber/Hussar, meh. The old Tulu, nah bro. Used the jump module for a giggle and it gives this bot a while new dynamic. No one expects a jumping gold Fujin. Gets around the battlefield easier. Even get your death pounce on. 12mk2 Legacy catches so many out. Just know when to set up the Ancile, 'cause more often than not in the wrong time and place you be dead muther 「fluffernutter」er. Bukwark aka " Eradicator": Upgraded L7 to L9. Tried Goons, good. Calamity, good. Zeus, good. Exodus, good. But man pop on the trusty ole Thunders and those babies punch. This build just worked and felt so good. Falcon: Upgraded 1mk2 to 3mk2. Only ran it in Tempest because i just love it too much. Dennis Denuto says it so well. Shutze: Nice out of the blue buff Pix. Good work for a change. This bot and Avalanche is the biz. Plus he brings the fireworks and a good six pack of craft beer. Titan Slayers in this warms the cockles on a cold night. Got my pilot skills on those bots with the skills I prefer. Minos: Upgraded a tad. L11 now. But 「fluffernutter」 he's fun. Full Sending those arsehole reds to oblivion on Abyss has never given me so much joy. So much more fun than an Arty Death Fart. On the weapons front I finished off a set of Arbalests and Tulus to L10. Built and scored a few more weapons to add to the completion list. I'm a bees 「wee-wee」 away from my forth Sting after that only two Ballistas to go for the gold weapons front. All in all this Hangar was a good one for me. How did you go in the end Cdr. Crimmins , foxypotato and anyone else that may have taken up the not so hard challenge.
