O.k., let's try a different approach.... (advice needed, will hopefully be updated regularly)

Genbura > AchtSieben WT > Sagittary Maxis (My opinion, might not match yours).

But Genbura is so heavily reliant on the AURA system that I never really liked him myself.

spending half the match trying to find shit to farm sux, especially treeless maps
@ cat nigga you can max that sob at lv 0

I was talking about UC tuning. Meaning, avoiding tuning 3 slots on the same part. Though maxing at level 0 bots that should take EIW is a little...
Well, the level didn't matter to start with.
Considering that we have Cosmic Cola now, yeah, it's easier to get higher tec.

With 2 bucklers you can get almost 40 tec, if not 40 tec, so it doesn't surprise me that you can get that without bucklers.
But to be safe, and without going fully wrong, I said 35 at least.

Already got 1 idea in my head for a Genbura-based bot...will be using one of the brand new ones to see how well it works...problem is, I only have 2 or 3 Bucklers, none are slotted, and I believe all are in use.... *ponders*

Oh, sorry, I forgot to mention which bot I was talking about. It was about WT. D;

Genbu just needs a weapon to farm and survive. The problem is that a weapon to do both usually costs a bit.
Well, not much of a problem, though you will probably spend most of your time in Aura. Meaning that a high cost weapon will feel like a waste of cost if you aren't using it all that much.

I wouldn't go higher than 70 cost on a weapon for Genbura.

Handy Magnum, Handy Bazooka, Bazooka, Albatreos HD, Slice Gun, Circuit Breaker

in no particular order

I'd be iffy on Bazooka though, stat drops hurt and 120 ammo is low for a farm weapon.

I was considering, on one Genbura once it's level/capa allows, to use the AchtSeiben Lg on it, and put the 2 Kealmes Ams on that, each with a Viper or Buckler...plenty of farming/sniping ability with the shields to boot, and potentially a LOT of direct firepower under a PS!

You'll want to stick to the arms alone honestly. AchtSieben LG's are somewhat huge and they take a large chunk out of your fly. I'd just go with Laz lg + 2x Cannonballer BS + 2x Build Arm/Dikaros/Accel AM, with a Buckler/Viper and a Handy Bazooka.

Kealmes AM's are okay, but they'd best be used other places.

Heh, considering I've got 3 Genburas now, I can afford to have 3 different setups...this could be fun!

If you have an Amateus, I think that's a good candidate for Kealmes AM if you go for an Alpha build.

Genbura's probably the last bot I'd put Kealmes arms on. The low ammo makes them poor for farming with, and during aura alpha striking is not something you want to be doing (unless you're making ultra-hipster Genbura, but at that point you'd probably be better leaving the default arms on).

Amateus could utilize Kealmes AMs well, or possibly even Kealmes himself if you like Float Dash (considering how little you tune anyway, his lowish capa shouldn't hurt either). Alpha striking with x2 Kealmes AM and x2 Bazooka would probably be your best option. Psycho Formula'd be an attractive option too, but it'd require garapon weapons that I doubt you have.

Well, I put this together, based on suggestions...I -really- hope the internal upgrade cart(EIW?) affects Genbura, or I'll have to start over....

They do, get them both.

Looking good so far.

Right...so it's good to go as shown....

It's already lv 2, and has one of the EIW carts in...the rest should be easy, then!

...with my br down to 3.2xx, I'll probably have plenty of chances to test it in the under 3br rooms shortly...dunno if that's a good thing or bad, though...just can't shake off this bad match run I've been on lately....

BR doesn't really mean anything. On the rare instance it means you're a good player; more often it's "look how much autoplay I can use." Don't worry about if your BR drops.

O.k., still haven't really used it in a battle, but Genbura's coming along fairly well, I'd like to think...:

Spoiler:

...on another note, I threw this weird looking thing together after remembering I had the shock knife mod....

Spoiler:

...don't laugh at it...it just looked like it had potential...is there -any- reason at all to use it?

I...don't know how viable shock knife is these days, if at all. I'm pretty sure it's preferred on supports over lnds though, as a self-defense weapon against melee (like bugsy am2/3)
