How does a Mars, with level 1.6 Hazards, kill a MK3 Erebus with, at best two volleys, when my weather chicken, whose pilot ignores energy shields didn’t scratch the paint? (If this is a rant, I’ll have my wife make me Lima beans for dinner for misplacing this. Lima beans are proof that the Devil once strode upon the Earth)

Cheating.

Sometimes this game has me scratching my head at the encounters.
How a Typhon can tank so much damage with a "small" aegis but my Mars with 3 X fortifiers goes down like a wet paper bag.
Now bots with the stupid built in force fields make it even harder to spot hackers, virtually giving them built in hacking abilities.
So guess what? They give us more hacking content like the reaper weapons to combat the other hacking content.

I wish I knew the trick to making one stout. |

Cheating, or lag. The latter is omnipresent, but because cheating is now more prevalent, how to really tell which it is. But matter it does not, as the answer is simple - the game is a very broken product.

Yet, that guy tore him a new one like Mom found crystal meth in his backpack. |

Pilot skills, could have been fully amped up, could have been hacking who knows these days.
I haven't seen an Erebus last more than a few seconds in months.

Then again, I am Expert level. Ironically, when I play, the first thing I target are Erebus/Behemoth because they can take over and take away decisions from your play. |

If you don't deal with that Prisma guy first, you will regret it later... I go after Prismas, anything cloaked, Skyros, weather chickens (I know the cost. Am willing to pay). Seen too many games where just one Skyros, based by the effective play of their team, have won the game for them. Theseus REALLY needs to be modified. When it take 3 players a minute+ to kill one… |

Glad to see a bounty hunter on the field
Id say skyros is a 50/50 though cuz if its heavy hitting its a big priority but if its all beacons id prioritize anything trying to act as a spear behind the dagger
A small cut is only harmful to the ego but being impaled right after might just be the end of you

Crisis really hurts Skyros, so much so that I can usually kill 2 before they reach center.

He’s a huge part, but the ones that are REALLY nasty have Theseus PLUS all the skills, maxed IA+RA, and effective drone choices. I’m not shy about my adoration for Armadillo and I mean it. Get 3+ beacons (which is easy), charge up a NA, and get a few kills and you’re rolling around with a quick bonus 60+ def just from the drone. |

So…she’ll out 12x40 million silver + the gold for the pilot ranks AND MORE for the perfect pilot skills and MORE cash for the microchips. P2W my fat gluteus Maximus. (Fixed) |

What microchips? He probably meant FTW & Chips are for the drone...no innate skills anymore. takes craptons just to use the skills you already paid for on the drone... EDIT: I get they want more income from drones as they make up 50% of the match play effectiveness but damn! They charge too much for one and for 2 the moment they fix drones they bring a broken drone out...Kestrel. |

I found them so tough as opponents which is why I spent the silver on it. Say my first MK3 Crisis/ Reaper set up. He was on my team but he ended up #1 with most kills. Not sure if it is was the Crisis or his other bots. I figure if I get "one shotted" and can not see the enemy... it was one of these. |

Just see one stopped dead from half a map away. Hate those things. Reaper Butch/Behemoth/Erebus/Jaeger would probably be just as good at it as well, that is if you win the weapons. if you win just the bot, Hornets seem to do a great job at it. As well as 4 medium slot bots running well leveled Webbers. |

Also want to give some love to my Mars - hate the fact that you bring it in, and EVERYONE targets you. It’s the new Khepri. |

I tried the Webbers on my Typhon and did not have such great success. Spent some silver getting them leveled up but just could not get any really benefit of sustained kills from them. They will for sure take some HP from the Reds but getting kills is tough. They are kinetic so shields will mess you up. They re-load really slow so you need distance. You also have to be super careful with aiming especially from great distance. A miss is lost time. As soon as you loose the distance advantage you are done as you need "TIME." They are completely useless in any kind of brawling situation.
I saw PREDATOR on YouTube having great success but as we all know this was likely a 1 in 50 game he posted.
In the end I gave up a bit of range and put some good old Pulsars on Typhon. The reload fast, pack a huge punch and PIX just gave them a buff so they will not be hit negatively later on.
If you really want LONG range there are better weapons like the new LASERS (Yeojee or what ever the hell their called...) at 800M or Prisma at 1100M. Might be a bit careful with the new Reaper guns as they will likely get a Nerf at some point.
