So last Friday I save up my tokens pour myself some Talls proceed to open chests. Got a hazard now I have two, what to do . So after further analysis put them on the Hover. These weps are really good on the bot and fun too. I have not run the bot much tried different builds ie taser, Wasp etc. This build really pisses off the reds especially against the bendies. Have a Chong pilot that could use some more skills only has two atm. The fast reload allows ambush tactics as well. Still learning the bot have, not run a lot of flying bots. Also need a blight for the light slot. First thread btw, usually just write snarky comments . One hazard is a cryptic so maybe I will get another one.  |

Saw this guy today:  It’s difficult to see, but he’s running MK3 Taran/Magnum. He has a MK2 version, too. Hover Power is his screen name. |

Thanks. Hover Power is a Pro I'm sure. I could run taran build but these weps seem to fit right away. This does surprisingly well against Seraphs of all bots. Just bumped it up m1L10 will go higher!!

Hovers are still OP.
I'm so glad Hover has slipped under the commoners radar.

Didn't Shaggy do a song on this bot back in the 90's?

Update on the Hover. Bot is going to 2.6 weps are hazard Se L11-8 , blight L9. Would like to get other spec ed weps for it. This is my chill and kill bot. Stay back shoot reds and watch their futile efforts to hit the pesky Hover. Also have the Ottopilot.. 1 Maxed NA, NA,TN. IMHO If you use hover would rec this build. Works very well without Otto too.

Hovers are still OP. I'm so glad Hover has slipped under the commoners radar. I recently ran a trial match vs a clanmates Seraph the other day. I lost, but it was pretty close, especially considering: 1) I use Raider Gunsmith and Invulnerable Raider in my Pilot, and we were running in TDM 2) I have 2.5/2.6 Venoms and a 1.9 Toxin vs his Mk3 Punchers 3) Only 2 of my Modules are maxed, the third is level 1 4) Duelling in a 1-on-1 is significantly different from the way I typically face Seraphs in Domination. 5) He's a much more experienced dueller than me, I never play FFA, and rarely TDM. 6) He used a Special Edition bot, when none exists for Hover. Given the results, I'm confident that Hover is absolutely a rival for Seraph. Further updates when I do a rematch. |

And when it comes to the older boys they are generally tankier then the new flash bang ones. The thing that makes the new ones seem unkillable is the magic. Once the magically powers wear off they are quite brittle. Position yourself for the attack during magical powers hour and then hopefully you have enough left in the tank to make the attack. Know your bot, weapons and maps. Plus Hovers still 「fluffernutter」ing rule. |

Here's Otto. Got a beyond Godlike with this against mk2 gear. Using the ability to avoid OS really pisses the reds off, especially when it's a double strike!! NOPE...  |

I've been meaning to do a "basic maneuvers" video, but haven't done it yet. Start with this one, see if you can complete the challenge. |

Have taken quite few out with it. There are times when half the red team or more try and track me down. Only one wep is mk2, SE hazard. Other two are 8/9. Want to maybe get SE weps for it. |

Or, to paraphrase an enjoyable 90s movie, I looked like a monkey 「fluffernutter」ing a football out there. |

The real fun is when you're just gracefully floating into perfect firing position when a Shell punts you across the map, so you're like, "Alright then! New objective!" |

Poopface by all accounts i am still a novice when it comes to flying the bot. Been about two months or so since I tried this build, bot and weps clicked right away for me. All that matters is the killz.

Sometimes when launched, I get blown out of harm’s way but am still able to fire at my target as I shrink into the distance. Oftentimes, I still get the Kill. |

Then tap away and glide like a paraglider if you skim the ground just right your legs start running so you don't get that Griffin sponge puft landing. |
