So update 9.0 hit Seraph hard, but as I've said it's not going to stop me taking to the skies This was not the best game kills or damage wise but I did get some good plays while trying out the Seraph nerf, also I had an unlikely game afterward featuring my quad Onslaught Reactor Aether, nearly died in the first engagement and then proceeded to tear the reds apart for the rest of the game at critically low hp. I am Nexus, the defiant flyer

Great to see Seraph still kicking after the nerf, but the fact it took a hit this bad and still is decent probably means it was a bit much on release…

Also having 3 means I have a good amount of redo's if one get slapped down too fast.

It's definitely (or is that defiantly) had its wings clipped to be a mere mortal for the moment.
Had one player forget that when I killed their bot on their home beacon on dead city.
Immediately they spawned in a fresh Seraph and flew towards me to take revenge and the beacon back but with the shortened flight, only managed to land right in front of me and cop a face full of sonic weapons.
Poetic justice for all the times it has gone the other way and not a thing I could do about it.

Yeah you can't just rush in blindly, Thats an easy way to get instakilled with the shortened flight time.

I find Seraph still performs well and don`t really notice a huge difference after the nerf. I guess it`s made it a lot worse if you`re not running Victoria. So much so I`m tempted to build the Unknown that I got recently. Also run the same Aether with 4 Onslaughts and, whilst it can die quickly, it kills very quickly.

Seraph is still definitely useful if used properly, It's a lot more vulnerable and I do notice the nerf but I'm adjusting I say level that Unknown Seraph, why not ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ And yeah with Aether I have experimented with lots of module setups but the all damage build is reliably the most fun to run as if you get a streak going the amount of chaos you can cause in a short time is impressive, sure it's going to get nerfed but whats new ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I swapped out my Seraph after the nerf. I'm not really sad to see it go, unlike previous bots such as Fafnir, Harpy, Siren, or Skyros, but I still see them regularly. Most of them are pretty easy to kill, which I am ok about. Still useful, just nowhere near as OP.
