So, the 10th anniversary is here. What better time to add the robot with the most boring playstyle? Its an ok robot, it has the possibility to become even more op with the right weapons. So far the ice hurricanes are underwhelming. The accuracy is horrible, and sometimes they shoot in different directions. They are very effective at 300m range though. I don't really like it. You pretty much stay in the exact same position firing the rockets so they hit properly, it's a zenit user's wet dream. Kinda lame for the 10th anniversary though.

You mean like the playing style that all of those "AI" players are using with hurricane weapons? That playing style? The one being used from 1/6th to 1/3 of the players in many games?

It is funny how when you (Pixonic) give a robots so many crazy, automated abilities it becomes boring because it is just pressing buttons and letting stuff happen. According to Daniel1 this bot is quite powerful, but I totally get its playstyle being unengaging.

The "AI" players with hurricane are a little bit reminiscent of when Spectre with 4*Hydra were the all powerful combination. On the moon map, I've seen Behemoth, Erebus, and Crisis be effective "lazy" robots when used with Chimera.

The "boring" part is correct. There are some video topics that I don't even get past the couple minute mark before I move on and this bot is already at that stage.
I'm going to call it a "brawling sniper" that nonchalantly marches around hunting bots who just seem to want to get away from the thing.

go ahead, drop your predictions on how pix will buff it It seems like a whole meta nerf is coming. Curie, Eiffel, possibly shenlou, maybe bedwyr. Then the Pathfinder will perform better. It was like this when the Curie came out. The ochokochi destroyed it. When it got nerfed, that's when we started seeing the unkillable Curies.

THAT ONE is called Wednesday! I may have to put together a WAR ROBOTS CALENDAR, when meta gets released, and when it will get its first nerf, etc. hahaha, can have gus169 draw up the bots in sexy poses and such like a pinup magazine.

FIFY.
Seriously, I've been 1v2 after 1:45 in, in more than a couple games.

Good to know OP.
Will give it a miss. if I end up getting it, it will collect dust with my level 4 Curie. The meta gear seems to interest me less and less.

TBH, I get a much bigger kick out of getting 10+ kills with a purple bot if I get things right/circumstances turn out well or get utterly trashed in 30 secs if I screw up. And I literally jump for joy when the kills go above 15 in Champions League. Thatβs the excitement and provides the joy of anticipation of pressing the go to battle button again.

PREACH!!!! so satisfying to kill meta, with a tier 3 bot/wep setup

Wow, I didn't know I should feel lucky for it to be 2v2 after 2min.

I wouldn't call it lucky. But I also wouldn't call it abnormal to be 2v2 after the farmer-tankers leave at the 90 second mark.
Sigh... Just bleeping sigh...

At least in War Robots Classic games that I played today it often got into good matches where it is 5 or so on both sides at the 5 minute mark.
I saw 7v7 today... as if that'll make a difference, just more tankers.
