 Hey gang, welcome to my hangar, try not to trip on my mess. So, this is what I've been running thesedays, while I know it's not 'optimal' I still have a blast with it. I play purely random, seem to be more of a capper/sneaker than an all-out damage dealer. Although I run two Stalkers (I'm aware it's not recommended/ideal) I try to be versatile with my other three bots. So here's my queries... Where the hot place am I, Silver somewhere? Should my Stalkers have a few more levels? I would like them too but I don't want to get boosted higher as I'm only just starting to get used to where I am. I love the Carnage, I do, but it's a wee bit squishy at this level so I'm gonna store it until I'm ready for the next tier. Which leads me to my next question. What do I replace it with? My next purchase is a 3way tie between the Gareth, Galahad, and Rhino. Each bot has their respective strengths and weaknesses, and eventually I will own one of everything, I'm just stuck for.... right now. Also in storage is a 6/7 Thunder Pinata Leo that gets switched in on occasion, great bot, lil slow. Spare weapons include; 3x L7 CRVs 3x L9 Pinatas 2x L8 Magnums 2x L7 Tulumbas 1 lonely L7 Trident Have a few high bronze/low silver ag bots, and spewing I junked my firearms pre-buff, but one of my side goals (mentioned in another thread) is to only run penalty bots (sorry I forgot who supported that idea). Desperately waiting for the Protolot because I really want to bolt a pair onto a Raijin. So whatchya think guys? Edit: Forgot a question, Thoughts on Orkan Fujin? |

I think you should join Wiklings. Sorry for not answering your questions, but I'm sure Wiklings members can  |

You're at a very similar point to me, wiklings (for iOS) would definitely be able to help but in the mean time how much gold and wsp do you have. If you have enough rhino and Galahad would be brilliant options, you will however need medium weapons either Tarans or orkans for them to be effective so depending on whether you want splash or plasma is probably the key here. Try and get on this weekends test server and you can try out some options and see what works for you

Think 《₩hirl》 is on android? In which case should join wikittens  Here are two cents from me (purley based on my own thought - not an expert on MM ; that's my disclaimer) Would say you are high silver Orkan fujin would be awesome but don't do it at expense of sacrificing your D B griff If you really want to run 2 stalkers, change your mag stalker to pinata instead - they may work in silver, but as you progress to gold, mag stalkers are snacks You should think about adding a mid-ranger to your lineup. You're right L6 carny too squsihy AND too slow. In meantime, would highly recommend R D B griff - you have the pins and tulum, just need an extra out of the box L6 griff. Get practice with those weaps as they will come in handy in gold Next purchase suggest: gala > rhino > gareth. Next new bot, replace one of your stalkers |

High silver is 6/8 heavies, your bots are borderline but the carnage will push them up there with its 20% penalty. I guess you bounce between low silver and trash gold.
I didn't look at the wiki, but I think your stalkers can definitely go much higher since they are light bots.
I agree, don't sacrifice your db griffin to form a db fujin. Db griffin is way more versatile. Db fujin is more like parking a turret at a choke point.
I vote Galahad because that's what I'm farming for, all round shield bot. I got me a rhino, but I can see that it's going to take me some games to get used to it, I keep getting caught on the edges of objects. And there's no reverse, you have to lower shield, turn, shield up and run for your life while your back is exposed to enemies. And it's a freaking missile magnet. Everyone wants to end it when they see it in the field. Gareth plays a very similar role to stalker, so I feel that it's not the best addition to your hangar for now.
Also, second vote for interim rdb griffin, or at least set one up to try it out since two stalkers is kind of excessive.
Plasma griffin deals a ton of damage too, so you might want to look into that.

Thanks for the tips guys, guess I'm gunning for a Galahad then. Costwise I'm closest to a PDB Galahad anyway. Thinking about it, a Rhino would cause me to sacrifice my DB Griffin for some time. But a Gareth would leave me enough change to pickup another Orkan, which I could transfer to my Fujin and leave me with enough spare parts to convert the Griffin to PDB and the Gareth too.
Argh, why must there be so much cool stuff!
I do run the RDB Griffin setup from time to time, but I'm more effective with the Trident CRV Leo for some reason.
Yes I'm on Android guys. I have toyed with the idea of joining a clan, but am hesitant due to my lifestyle (Family man too) in that I doubt I can be dedicated enough for competitive clan life.
Decisions, decisions.

Decisions, decisions. not every clan is competitive, in fact there are many that aren't. Realistically having only the top 100 clans displayed is just plain stupid. Most top 100 clans require gold/top hangars and a high trophy count, which isn't helpful for casual players at all. |

Argh, why must there be so much cool stuff! I do run the Russian Death Button Griffin setup from time to time, but I'm more effective with the Trident CRV Leo for some reason.

Decisions, decisions. A death button Rhino could replace your griffin, but you will be enemy #1 when you deploy it |

Heck, until just recently, I was in a top 300 clan and those hangars were re-donk-u-less.
