I know several people who are having good success with him as an OP bot. No personal experience as I only have a 2*, but given the path the game is taking, AOE bots are proving to be very valuable.

 

What do you guys think about Lugnut so far?

 

I might have to give him a shot at some point. My research queue is incredibly backlogged right now, I'm not even sure when he'll be ready.

 

@Ephland
I've discovered research queue backlog as well.
I had to upgrade Warpath to 41 first, then:
Upgrading Swoop to Level 51 is going to take another 3d16h and it took me something like 4 days of intensive Energon collecting to get the required amount to start him off.
I've got Blaster ready to go for a 51 upgrade and Jumpstream is nearly to her level 50 (48, 579,040/640,000).
Also, I can't do Elita-1's level 11 upgrade because Swoop is blocking that too.

Based on that experience, I am not going to want to do that often, not when I have a lot of base specific upgrades to work on.
Especially considering I have to upgrade my base defences because I keep getting attacked.
I lost 1.2million energon in just 12 hours while trying to get Swoop's upgrade launched!

 

I really wish this game had a smelting pool or something. I’ve got a 2 star and a 1 star Skywarp now.

 

2 of Victorion/Menasor's skills

Blade Dash
Dash to a target and slash it for heavy damage.

Cooldown: 7 seconds
Damage (Level 1): 630

Kinetic Barrier defense, allowing them to deflect 75% of damage for a short period while dealing back a hefty area-of-attack sword strike.

 

Victorion's 4* power...

Noble Sacrifice: Deal heavy damage and disable enemies over a large area while losing 20% of your max Health. If this ability kills you, disable the enemy base for 10 seconds.

Cooldown: 30 seconds

Damage (Level 1): 880 in an area

 

Okay, now I know which ability I won't use!
Noble Sacrifice is too risky for me, I don't use skills that sap health for damage output in any game.
I might use it if Victorion was at like 2% health, when it doesn't matter.

 

I wanna get into this game but idk, I feel like there’s a lot to catch up on

 

It’s ok to join now. You catch on a lot better to the new machanics.

 

That's a good Menasor model.

 

Hmmmm. Wondering if I should go back to this game after I quit from being bored of it. Sucks I cannot go on my iPad since my account was on Android.

 

Another combiner to elude me

 

As Blackjack isn't in the game, are they going to have 5 bots combine to form Menasor and 6 for Victorion?

 

yep. they explained it pretty reasonably.

 

I have given up on this game, I've lost all interest as it's just gotten stale. The bad thing is I've got a decent account with VIP status. Is there a way to gift my account to my nephew since he's the only one that plays my account anymore when he comes to visit?

 

Since someone else brought up colour coding.. is there a definitive key/legend on what colour codes infer?

Green seems to be anything health or acid related
Blue - emp/stun attacks
Red - fire attacks?
Purple ?

 

Best I can tell about purple is that it can affect multiple targets, but there's a wide range of attacks that are purple colored.
