I've tried, calculated and farmed for all those builds I sport in an arena but it's the same story all over again: Getting buttraped every three seconds after you spawn. It's just not plausible anymore without some sort of cheating mode.

This intrigues me. What kind of builds do you use?

About everything that doesn't need Rt. You name it.

Example.

Example.

Sway on ART + gun
Sway on LND + melee OR gun
Mainstream Izuna
Mainstream Hopper (Frog Lander, Turtlebacker, Shino Exroad etc)
Mach Knight
Mach Knight One

Typical Overloaded Destructor (Destructor [CN and regular] with missile launchers/titan bazooka/large bazooka and sometimes Cacpetus HD)

Destructor [CN and regular] with Eight Vulcan and shield

Destructor CN with 2x enhance internal, Viper Shield and

Locomotive X
Snailbot
Victory-1

Air with lasers
Air with mini bazooka and viper shield
Beezle A with mini bazooka and viper shield

And more that I can't list off the top of my head.

Victory 1 with no arms and cheap, fast legs, 2x internal wep carts, harass airs non-stop with your blast bazookas.

Shadow hunter with enough cap for a decent gun (drum gun or similar, good damage output with not much emphasis on ammo capacity), 1 arm and stealth system, sneak behind enemy lines and literally not be detected, even by broad radar spammers.

Locomotive rocket has such a haxed launch height it can pretty much shoot above any non-continuous wall or barrier (the ramparts on glacier night are a good example, most bots need to climb on top, but you have cover, I daresay it's better than howitzers if it weren't for the better aiming).

Beezle holding a plasma gun, nothing more needs to be said.

Tengu with cheap, high-HP parts and a stardust, played like an ART.

YOU ALONE can't beat overpowered shit played by OVER SKILLED PLAYER.
but YOU , YOU and YOU CAN "chose your bot wisely and think as a hero " WORK AS A TEAM !!

even byne will go down if attacked by a swarm of chibi .... (wait a minute that's a good idea !!! )

GOGOGO MY CHIBI ASSAULT SQUAD
ATTACK ITS WEAK POINT FOR MASSIVE DAMAGE

surely a chibi with an oversized... very phallic... lance is going to penetrate byne's... behind... right?

aaaaaanyway... I can cook up some absurd builds that actually works to a certain extent (mostly because they are downright absurd that no one expects them), so is anyone interested?

hmmm
what kind of purpose do you want your bot to serve?

Any purpose you can think of.

Although I'll admit I'm more interested in being on the middle or back line, since front lines get me raped faster.

I just tested an Accel Saber LG on my melee Crimrose last night. 'Twas funny, but not very effective.

I use a cosmos kaiser with steel rider legs, victory head and an eight vulcan with a viper shield.

It gets broad radar under level five. In wide rooms like Midnight Vision, I can sneak up the back path without even being noticed and 1-man take out an enemy's PS before they can react.

In normal combat, its core is like a mini-vulcan itself and just straifing a bit and aiming accurately can take most non-warping players out. It's main weakness is Air, because of short range, low ammo and the fact that it is a land, obviously, but broad radar on this land bot helps prevent overextending yourself in situations where you would be confronted by something you believe you couldn't beat 1v1.

Pure UC, useful, not difficult.

Spoiler:

Yeah, it's an extremely good bot, imo

added cosmo kaiser to my shopping list

potentially adding it to my badass guide
