Well Done Pixonic. You have now been part of the hacking/cheating group, creating a weapon that deletes all bots in 2 to 3 seconds.
Previous new additions to the game has been manageable....but this is a whole new level.
Very Well Done.

Spear is ridiculous. As soon as we see an enemy loaded with them, they must become a priority target.
Generally speaking, it is more effective to ambush them by feigning disinterest while closing into range. Needlessly drawing their attention (if we havent already lol) with unskilled pursuit and firing at them prematurely is not the best way to take them down.

Problem is most of the cool kids have more than 1 bot decked out with them now and/or 3 anglers with the rust weapons ready to take revenge on your revenge.
I wonder if they will have the gall to complain when the nerf hammer hits (very soon) or just be happy they got a few weeks of free gold and silver, seal clubbing pretty much everything out there including Titans.

Previous new additions to the game have been manageable just takes a bit more time to get to âmanageableâ. Seriously, I remind myself of this often. When the next uber stoopid thing is hatched, itâs gonna take me a week or two to adjust to it. Thatâs just the cycle of this mind「fluffernutter」 machine called War Robots |

My maxed invader with 3x IA was deleted in literally 2 seconds by a trio of linked Khepri’s with 12 spears. They rolled me over and continued onward, not even slowing down for the beacon. |

THEN i waded into dark waters and got jumped by 3 spear kheps. evil weapons |

Was that because of the Shocktrain or the Spear? If it was the Shocktrain, man that would be a real testament to the addictive power of the game to make us all keep coming back even when we feel we can't afford the time. Even when we leave, confident we have resisted the blatant manipulation built into the game by pixonic, at some point we remember that it was fun to drive a robot and shoot at other robots. At that moment, pix tugs at the barbed wire tangled around our mental testicles and draws us back to the game. 「illegitimate child」s! |

I positioned my Mk3 Imperial Hades with L6 Battleborn & Nebula & Colonel Adrian with T4 Armor Expert etc. (so in other words, a reasonably tough nut to crack) where a Spear Khepri had a clear shot and was dead in like five seconds.

Just had a single Spear Khepri do damage equivalent to 3 Blues. Needless to say, we lost handily.

I had a quick think of what sort of numbers the spear puts out. Surely this can't be right? How can they ever have let that on the live server is mind boggling.
4500 per shot maxed and the 3rd shot is 400% higher so that's 18000. 75% more if you have a loaded up nuclear amp so roughly 31000 and on damage damage chips give another 40% I think so takes it to roughly 39000 per shot, from 1 friggin spear on the third hit and that's not including boosters or pilot skills.

They are crazy. I have recently come back to the game for a week or so to test mine. I do have Otto Schreyer, and it is devastating to everything. I'm getting all the fun out of it before the nerf. Sniping Seraphs in 3 shots out of the sky while landing never gets old.

Geezus... my son was playing this Morning on his iPad, first map off is Castle, a loaded Mk3 Kep' complete with Spears quickly migrates over to spawncampville and begins deleting 'bots with impunity. My sons team really didnt get the clue, and were all over the place, just not thinking anything through, not teaming up.... even if they had, none really had the equipment to take that MF'er down quickly. My son was so damn frustrated he's about to bail out, 4 of his bots had been deleted in 2 mins, Titan not charged obviously. He was about to leave, 1 'bot left, his Mk2 Scorpion. I told him to spawn as far away from the jackass as he could, and go to the edge of the 350m range and stay there, run if ya have to, ignoring anyone else. Had my son teleport to the guy, drill him only as long as it would take him to turn around and bring those Spears to bear, the get the hell out of there. My son says he wont be able to kill him, and I said your right. Youre only wearing him down a little with unrepairable damage. The goal at this point is just annoy him to death and give your Titan time to charge. This goes on for a bit, the reds are all dead and done except that guy, and its only my son and 1 guy left on his team, oddly enough with a Mk2 Scorpion (looked like the same purchase as my sons). Einstein gets the clue, and employs the same tactic as my son. The guy isnt as good at it, and invariably gets himself killed, and spawns a moderate level Kid. My sons Scorpion finally met its demise, but my son hung in there a LONG time with it. Theyre all up at the top level, the Kid is seconds from being deleted, my son spawns his Ox Minos right there. Kid gets deleted, and the Kep' starts crossing the pipe to go after the Ox. My son starts retreating, I said "He's on the pipe!". My son thinks for a sec, and heads for him instead, Ox charges him on the pipe, and knocks him into the chasm  My Son is yelling "I GOT HIM! I GOT HIM!" lol The jackass spawns another loaded Mk3 Kep', but by then theres only 40 seconds or so left. Son took up a strategic position behind the ruins, and just casually drilled him as possible until the clock ran out. 0M |

lol... (though I had to look up what a Twilight Saga was, heh).
The really irritating part was the team line-ups. Most of the players were Gold/Diamond, the Kep guy was Master II. He had 1 hangar, ALL Mk3 Keps with Spears, his Titan was a max'd Zmej Murometz. Most of the blues had some kills each, but it was somewhat evenly distributed. Reds were in a similar boat. I think a few just plain gave up. Kep'tard had 22. Hard to tell if any players were tanking, but it wouldnt have mattered.
My Son said its not fair, and the guy shouldnt be able to do that, "he won but didnt really do anything". Sure, Kep'tard "won" the "match", but I impressed on my Son that HE won THAT particular battle in the end. I think that may be the end of my Sons War Robots career. He went and played some tank game instead after that.

Seriously, I wish they would just hurry the 「fluffernutter」 up and nerf it already. 3 weeks in the test server and nerfs incoming to khepri as well (sales of nether not going too well).... They should have done it overnight and not wait for the next update but something tells me they need to do it this way to not run foul of their terms and get refund claims from purchasing players. |

I think we will start to see the Nether more often now. I was like most others who won it, I didn't take a second look at it after I witnessed the Otto Spear Khepri. Nether is very deadly with Claw, so we'll have to see how it turns out in the long run.
4 days until the Imugi comes out...
