Sure they dish out some damage but I keep seeing team mates focusing on and wasting bots storming these gimps and every time the Trident Fury 「bum-bum」 scores like fourth in the enemy damage table. Seriously, check it out next time you think one of these tossers is 'annihilating you'.
I really thought they were potent and was actually saving for one. but am truly seeing them as little more than swarm bait. Everyone concentrates their bots on trying to storm the Fury while the actual damage dealing and beacon bots win the battle. The Fury pilot gets a boner from pummeling those desperate to get to them WW1 over the top style but it's the reaction to them that swings the battle. It's a psych bot pure and simple.
So disillusioned.

I just keep seeing my side (or theirs, the amount of times I flank a couple of Rhinos or a Lancelot whose sole goal in life is to try and take it to the Fury) storm them out of some fear that they are wiping us out and yeah there's that panic from the three big hits, but every time I check the tables I expect to find them ruling the score board and each and every time they're like third or fourth in the tables. The Lancelots are always numero uno. The Trident Fury is their beeeatch.

The Lancelots are always numero uno. The Trident Fury is their beeeatch. I've learnt there's a special way to play a fury. You can't stay in it for the whole game. Use it, at the right time, towards the end to defend centre, to keep a beacon bar advantage. If you can keep the reds from centre, they'll waste time coming for you. I often use mine to strip shields and to take out crippled bots hiding near centre so my team mates in the middle have an easier time. Its a great support bot.

What tier is the OP in? Trident Furies are great but not invincible.
Harrison Ford will reappear as Deckard many years later. It's not a rehash

What I meant by rehash was like The Force Awakens, which was basically a rehash - also with Harrison Ford many years on.

rehash means repeat/copy.... The Force Awakens wasnt a rehash. It was a continuation.
Anyway, Sorry for going of topic (kinda)
With the ancile and energy shield buff, Trident Furies are not as meta as they used to be. But they are still are VERY useful and potent. Especially against Galahads and Gareths.

My tri carnage takes out trident furys all the time... but a good fury pilot who drops the bot at the right time when most mid range is dead and keeps shelling the center beacon is a realll pita and good luck sneaking up on him, most mid-long range maps thats not really possible.. If your teams on comms it wont b a problem but with a random team hell pick em off 1x1... besides for the mid match fury a fury to start still can do some damage but it wont last long enouph to make a big difference unless of coarse your team is just better...

Is this click bait or are you serious? Tridents dominate certain maps. I drop mine first to deal with the flurry of brit bots at the start of match. Dropping it first guarantees at least a couple of dead brit bots (except an ancilot).
Be forewarned it seems to attract a lot of hate. I find that after killing a bot or two they come back and make a beeline for your position

I find that after killing a bot or two they come back and make a beeline for your position Yep, that's pretty much my point, as soon as those three impacts ring out I see a lot of people panic and hysterically fling themselves at the source. Of course, making a direct bee line for the Fury? Ooooo, smart move there pal. Why not just bend over while you're at it so you can recreate the missile/firework scene at the end of Brothers Grimsby? So a handful of players serve themselves up as the rest of the red team pirouettes around snagging beacons and gangbanging those who aren't in Trident Fury sacrifice mode. Trident Furies do their part and I agree that dropped at the right time they can play a pivotal role, but for the most part it seems that their most massive impact on the battle is purely psychological. I don't want them nerfed and I'm not anti them. I'm just more perplexed at the panic caused by a bot that usually comes in the mid to low damage range on the scoreboard.

I've had a few games post-ancilot era where I did more than a million damage using only a TT Fury. They were better before and I now occasionally play without a Fury in my hangar, but it's still very much a meta setup - even if less strong than before.

It's eye candy and fulfills that slot well, but the two things that bugged me were the trying to please everyone - here's Jimmy Smits for all you Force Unleashed Fans, here's the two idiots from the bar in New Hope, and here's AT-AT's for all you Empire fans etc and the other was Tarkin (not the cgi, because I think like Arnie he is just a really unnatural looking dude. The cgi Arnie in Salvation is like Tarkin in Awakens - he doesn't look real, but then he doesn't in real life either). It was the voice. It sounded so little like him. As a kid I grew up on Peter Cushing as I was addicted to the Hammer House movies, so I am very familiar with his voice mannerisms. I thought they could have found someone to do a way better impression of him than they did. P.S Blade Runner 2 better not suck Ridley. You're walking on thin ice here lad.

It used to be that you HAD to deal with them ASAP and remove them from the field of battle or they WOULD tear new orifices in your team's backsides. Now, if there is just one... and you have the right counters, you can just stay out of range and wait or help the counter bot to successfully kill it. IF there is a full squad and they all drop them and they are maxed or close to it... it can still be a slaughter if they are coordinated. But that can be said of quite a few bots.

This pretty much sums it up. I still make it a priority to eliminate them, esp. on maps like Canyon and Yamantau so blue friendlies stop suiciding themselves. Trident Furys can do double damage, so they are still deadly. I'm prolly doing more damage now because of my Trident Fury. I'm not running my Treb setup as much, so I've been having break out games of near 1 million with that bot alone. Not much competition these days stealing my damage, and not much attention from reds watching where they are going or trying to take me out. Also, I am a better Fury Trident pilot so I deal more damage. I try to do double damage, know the best spots, and know the best angles. Plus I play it very aggressively, and when it's time to eject, I will use it to suicide and cap a beacon if I can.

I still haven't figured out the best spots to camp as I am so used to knife fighting.

My TT Fury is 9/11 and I've had fun using it ever since I got weps to lvl 9. I'm not how you determined that the Tri Fury is useless - it is a very useful bot. I've scored over 1 million in damage in primarily my Fury and even capped a couple of beacons in it in one match which we won. The trick is not to get too attached to it and use it and then be prepared to move to the next bot as situations change. Maybe at your level it is less impactful....but as you climb leagues, the Tri Fury is a powerful killing machine, as is the Zeus Fury and the Carnage versions.

They aren't as bad as they used to be, but far from useless. We were all forced to learn to deal with them after being their prison 「female dog」es for months.
Nowadays I find the triple treb fury FAR more annoying. The unlimited range and losing half your health because you turned your bot the wrong way for half a second is super damn annoying.

Every match is different... one match ur fury may dominate and the next hell b scrap in less then a minute or hiding in a corner waiting to be scrap... i always leave 1 mid range in my hangar, if my team is all knife fighter the red furys may just pick em all off 1x1

It's a great leadoff robot, because many players open with Garys or Stalkers (low gold on Android) and Fury is one of the best counters to them. On KF maps I will just try to find some lanes and throw the Fury into battle there. It will die quickly, but mostly after doing its damage. On open maps I will try to hang back from enemy snipers, but I will never hide. Better to die quickly while doing damage than to hide and do nothing. But if I can stay away from enemy snipers I can dish out significant damage, doing 300-500k or more before the Fury is dead. Then I can be very agressive with my remaining 4 knife fighters. And my Fury is only 7/7...

I have a fury that's 10/10/10, and I average 400-580k a match. I play in high Silver, does this still count as a low damage bot? if so, how do I make one high damage?

So disillusioned. Foolishness. Every word. You need more practice. Start doing to the other team what they usually do to you and you'll see a change. And as always, timing, target priority and map are huge factors in defining success. Screw up any of these and you'll be disappointed. Get them all right and you'll look like a God.
