And with it comes a specialisation spree.

Well, this week is a wash. If you've seen, "Serenity" it didn't end well for Wash.

I'd take the 8 for free... but I am holding out for the bigger versions. And/or the MR 12 and JV 8. No EN 8 weapon should cost that much, prototype or not.

Geez....any guesses on how much that would be in A-coins? 🤣 I've reached the "?" on the progress path, have most of my bots in glow mode waiting to be upgraded, and not a single carbine. Somehow, I doubt the cost will ever be an issue for me.

IDK if I can wait for the bigger versions as it might be a while before we get them. I have plans for the DL8 if I get it. One would go on my Shadow and replace a JR6, and the other would go on my KS and replace the MR8.
On the KS, I'm hoping it'll let me score more hits at range before I close it for the melee kill. The RM12 that's on the right side already functions pretty well for taking chunks of HP off mechs trying to cap a beacon. They're forced to stay in the circle if they want the beacon. I usually then close and hit with the MR8 and then Melee Dash. But, I often miss a lot of shots with the MR8, so I'm hoping a DL8 will solve that. Basically, it'd be like when I was choosing between RPG6 and MR6 and went the RPG6 route. Less damage per hit, but more successive hits per magazine.
On the Shadow, I'm hoping to have more face to face damage for those times I step out of cover under Stealth. If the DL8 works well, I may end up replacing both JR6 if/when I finally max the Shadow.

Ouch...yeah, I think so too. That would clear out most of my A-coins. I wish there was more feedback on how well the weapon performs.

Splash is very good on it. But with bigger fish on the Fry List, I just don't want to spend resources on it yet. A 12, at least, is what my hangar needs to face these 4500 SP players that you can guarandamntee will have any, and all, the new releases.

You may be right, i was thinking their big brothers would be more, butbi forgot about single copies being cheaper. U was originally guessing 9-10+ for the higher energy ones. I hear if you commit to geting the entire set of Disk Launchers, Plarium will e-mail you a coupon for a free tube of KY jelly.

I hear if you commit to geting the entire set of Disk Launchers, Plarium will e-mail you a coupon for a free tube of KY jelly. For that price, there had better be a reach around included, at the least.
And that's a good point about the singles being cheaper... I didn't really pay attention to the cost of items we already have, so far, in relation to their lower/higher EN counterpoints... so that would make me even more inclined to wait until I have the option to get the higher EN variants.
Once again, the way they don't tell us what the plan is, in regards to what EN the others will be*, along with how they are rolling them out, just makes it hard to plan ahead. But, it is what it is. Plarionic has priorities and their customers are below their bottom line on that list... just like all the rest of these mobile devs. Yay.
*Still don't know for sure whether they will be 10/12, or 12/16, or 10/16. Although I believe the assumption is that it will be 10/12, like other weapon families that start at EN 8.

They can 「fluffernutter」 themselves if they think I'm ever doing that. Not spending more than 10$ ever on anything at a time, unless it's a paint job, and then only if I REALLY want it and even THEN 4.99 or less, and I'd best LOVE it, like my red marble on my panther for 2.99. Nope, the cash to value algorithm is 「fluffernutter」ing WHACK in this game. Not War Robots whack, but they're getting there SCARILY fast.

Do you know if the Disk Launcher locks on faster than the Jav6's? I cannot count how many kills i lost out on waiting for the Jav's to lock.

It looks like that is a yes... watch for the next few seconds on this clip... several times almost as soon as he targeted someone, he got the lock. Provided that they were in range.

Thanks for the post! scape211 does a great job with is videos, i think i may have seen this one, before, but not sure. I could tell does it spend the entire magazine like the Jav's or can you walk away from an engagement and still have some left?

Nope, like RPGs, you can have some left if you stop firing.

Nope, like RPGs, you can have some left if you stop firing. Saw I was tagged and im late to the party! Yes the DLs fire individually so you have a lot of control. All in all the mechanics of the DL are really nice. They take a little getting used, but have a ton of flexibility, aoe, fast reload, and respectable damage. Most feel they are too weak, but they are also the 8 energy version as its the lowest one so the higher ones if they follow the same mechanics will be really good. Think Carbines; we all liked the 8 but dont use it a ton end game. But the carb12s are always a solid choice. That said, they will be starting a new event for the next disc launcher (DL12) tomorrow. It will be another crate rush event like the last so I wish you all the best of luck in your pulls. I feel like this DL will become a regular staple in the meta. Hopefully we will also get a DL16 and get some more heavy weapons for end game! Edit: I said tomorrow but I meant Friday. So 2 days 😊

I think a 16EN weapon that has lock and follow as well as AOE might be a bit too powerful for this game. That said, it should pair really well with the RG16!

Something I just noticed in game. If you go into the inventory, at the top it tells you how many mechs or weapons you have unlocked. For me, I have unlocked all the mechs so it shows: Makes sense. But for weapons, I see this: Currently, I still have not quite unlocked the railgun, DL 8, or DL 12, but that leaves 3 "mystery" weapons unaccounted for. In my opinion, this has to be DL 16, MR 12, and JR 8. Probably not a few months before these are available for the masses though, sadly.

That's the closest thing to confirmation that they (MR 12 & Jav 8) really are coming, that I have seen.
Plarionic is sure about it. SMH

Looks like DL8 is finally available for 828k credits. Holy...well, not as bad as Brickhouse and is achievable. I'm up to 414k credits. Thank goodness I didn't do the Dev Derby for a couple of weeks! I should be able to get this bad boy in a week or so - hopefully. At least its for credits and not A-coins, which means I get to save my A-coins a bit longer.

When you're in an acoin log jam of upgrades this happens... 3,747,038 credits.. Shoot . That’s right . I’m all about saving. I”m keeping 2 mil and 20k Acoins in the piggy bank for the DL16 and MR12. I’ve been tempted to go ahead and max a few mechs, thus far I’ve resisted. I’ll spend anything above that but I love knowing I’m ready to pounce when they become available.
