That looks fab! Love the idea of using the Blitz platform for these weps rather than the Khepri - nuanced playstyle and brings a new dimension to the match. Please update as to how you find it (compared to running a Khep, for example) - my Blitz is too low level to last atm, but I've always loved how they play. Would be tempted to invest if it works (and when I get Otto, ofc!).

Overseer paint job, eh? I guess you could say that Blitz has an eye for destruction then!
Knowing how much you liked liked this build before, I can only imagine the insanity it brings now!

Yeah it is absolute bonkers evil. I almost never see this out there, so when I tear through bot after bot it is probably making a bunch of people think about it more. Khepris and Seraphs grossly underestimate what is about to happen. Im gonna keep this thing in and enjoy the 「dookie」 out of it before they decide Otto oughta not work with Mags afterall lmao |

ѻﻭɼﻉMagnums are so cheap to upgrade that I might make another set in the next 40% off event. BTW, per your rec I tried Armadillo on my Khepri/Mag build and when it works, oh my! It's especially evil on Carrier if you can get 3 quick beacons.

It's especially evil on Carrier if you can get 3 quick beacons. I find the trick with the mags and dillo is to get a couple bacon then hang back from a hotly contested bacon and just keep hitting reds to build up the NA, but especially making sure to concentrate on lower hp reds so as to get the kills. Then you are free to move about the cabin. |

The Overseer skin is killer. Kind of reminds me of the "Eye of Sauron." Very cool. Here is mine. Ardent Blitz which you don't see too often. Magnums just look like they were made for this design. Bummer to lose all my Pilot experience with old Clive but Otto will be fun. Magnum Machine Guns!  |

So, the idea of trying this (especially since my Blitz was already 2/12 with 2 of the guns being 2/4) was intriguing. After two matches I like it and can see the promise.
Compared to ѻﻭɼﻉ I'm quite nerf.
In my second match, I did quite well.
I even notched two kills despite facing two mechs in rapid sequence with zero Blue help.
I think this'll do even better once I can get the Otto leveled beyond 11, the guns leveled higher, and an Armadillo. I think I also need to steal a second Nuke Amp off one of my Striders and give it a whirl.

Poopface well done my friend, and even at lower levels even though you wont damage as much you can still go 「fluffernutter」ing bonkers with this Blitz. I feel that NA is not as useful on a Strider for certain reasons, so it is definitely worthwhile to put on Blitz. Above all, my recommendation for this demon is to hang back a bit, taking advantage of the range and helping allies a lot with ranged focus fire. This builds up your NAs, and the kills you get help stack the Armadillo. At match start, do not use Blitz to grab hotly contested beacons and overexpose yourself, but to build the Armadillo dp stacks, grab as many easy beacons as you can and get as many kills as you can from range. This will then allow you to expose more with a bit less concern for personal safety. Once you are all buffed up like mine and have a Northlight, you can go absolute bananas all over the place. Please excuse me if I already explained this before, short term memory loss

Unfortunately, I have neither an Armadillo nor Northlight yet so along with the unleveled mods and under-leveled pilot it's definitely squishier than yours.
Are you using this as a first drop or something later on?

Lol, I guess I did actually explain earlier. Anyways, the Armadillo is best used with first mech dropped imo because you can easily get two beacons right off the bat. Without building the drone stacks you will not benefit as much from this drone. Yes, I drop Blitz with dillo first every match. At the moment if you have other drones like Nebula, Persephone, Ironhearth, Barrel, or Beak, use one of those. Yeah, if you stick with allies but also hang back a bit is going to be your ticket until buffed up more. A very satisfying build - most fun I have had in a while, really missed my Blitz assault. I still played it sometimes, but I just couldn’t find the ideal weapons. Even Cudgel Blitz just doesn’t play the way I wanted. Anyways, good luck! |

Slowly getting better with it. I’m finding it requires a more subtle approach than I keep expecting. I find it takes damage pretty quickly. Granted, I have neither Northlight nor Armadillo so that certainly contributes. That said, kill streaks are more frequent. Enjoying it!  |

Strategic question for you all theorycrafters. Is it more advisable to first upgrade the Nuke Amps on this mech or Repair Amp? I can make arguments either way, but am currently leaning toward the Repair Amp for increased survivability + grey damage erasure.

Repair amp if the bot is more durable nuke amp if it less.
