I remember that famous screenshot BB posted, where he was the last player alive on Factory, and there were 5 or 6 Ao Mings in the sky. Well, the great cycle of War Robots hasn't failed to disappoint, and the Aether has replaced it. DISCLAIMER - Ignore what titan I am running lol Every game all I see is the Aether. No more Luchador, No more Indra, no more nothing. They may have nerfed the Seraph, but its spirit lives on in the new, bigger electric spaz bird albatross looking thing that is the Aether. I hate these things. I don't particularly enjoy running mine, but I do what I have to to survive in Champion. The stupid Glaive and Lance are modernised versions of the Gendarme and Cuirassier, and they are the 「fluffernutter」ing worst. I cannot fight an Aether in any of my normal bots, as they all get vaporized, MK2, 3 or whatever, in just a few shots. Angler's shield one shotted, Nether pretty much one shotted, Khepri 3 shotted - I can't do anything. Fed up of them ruining the games, theey are one of the weapons I hate that you can't see when they hit you so you only notice when 3 quarters of your health has been uninstalled from the servers. Even got to the point where some are running them on the Indra. For 「fluffernutter」s sake. Seraph took 5 months to be properly nerfed. How long until this electric albatross crashes into the ground?

Those weapons are brutal as you say, you don't even notice you are being hit until your bot bursts like a watermelon. It is more noticeable now since the spears got nerfed.
The bot is notoriously hard to take down with its healing and speed boosts and the untouchable flight but what do you expect with new releases from pix?

BB that's the one! Also, these things are known as spazmatrosses now.

I don’t think this is really about the bot, it’s about the weapons, Glaive, etc. I could stand on the ground with those maxed Glaives and still wreck…

The only counter I have found so far is another Aether. I seem to find the occasional one however, that is weak, and dies to my Angler really easily with the Talon and Claw. Others, the Angler can't scratch the paint.
Blinders look effective, I must try them at some point.

Are they really that bad? I deal with them by rushing over in the Ox Minos as soon as they land, and pop, pop, pop, they're dead.
