I wondered about the ability damage enhancement.
Some of the abilities only seem to apply to the team, not the Titan. It hasn’t always been clear which (and if they weren’t working properly all this time, maybe there’s a reason for that!)
I’ll give it one last try with my lvl 19 before I upgrade him  

 

It's not the abilities that was holding me back as much as the Titan v Titan perks from the Tech Tree. They have been inactive up to this point, so I wasn't getting the attack/health boosts I was supposed to be.

 

Well, I tried.

With or without the perks - and I’m sure I have them all - my lvl 19 kept falling short   Dunno what I’ve been doing wrong.

Didn’t have this issue with the lvl 15 opponent; I took him out when mine was only lvl 13 and lvl 14 (shrug).

Oh well; lvl 19’s into the oven for lvl 20.

 

I think there's a status difference between Tryticon and Metroplex.
On my Deception account level 18 Tryticon lost with Metro still having half health.
On my Autobot account level 18 Metro beat Tryticon with a bit of health left over.

 

My Titan is Tryps, so maybe that explains it  

 

I hit level 95 and got my two 4* crystals. Pulled Rotorstorm from one of them. Been chasing that bot for a long time.

 

I still need that one. Lucky you, congrats!

 

am i wrong or does RS have insanely high specialty ability damage?

 

in the lab right now at level 30. Level 3 SA and Level 7 Volatile Mixture G-Metal core.

217 damge/second for 20 seconds. That's 4340 damage to a single target.. and the damage increases by 30% if the target is destroyed before the 20 seconds is up (to a maximum of +370%). And that's not even close to maxed abilities!

 

He does. But Whirl has even larger range.

 

Well, since we got Prime Breakdown, Knock Out and Skids were revealed to be the new characters coming up back on Thursday's stream, and for some reason, they're going to be Gunners.

 

Not really the gunner-type indeed.

 

FYI, for anyone who does the Dispatch Missions like me, unlocking the 3rd Autobot slot also unlocks the Decepticon one. I guess I figured they were separate unlocks.

 

Thanks for that! I haven't unlocked them yet. Now I just might.

 

I like the missions. I have a ton of bots I don't use and it's a good way to earn XP, Z-energon, and the loot in the background with bots that would otherwise get ignored.

 

Same here. Although the line for upgrading bots is a bit long now  

 

Also great for levelling up alt faction bots; I don’t use them as much because they aren’t as strong as my main faction, and I don’t want to invest Spark and Energon (as well as time and Fuel Cells!) in them that I could be using on my main faction.

 

Rotorstorm update: Got him to 50 and then used an upgrade skip to get him to 51. Lvl 15 G-Metal VotMix and Lvl 8 SA.

685 dmg/sec for 20 seconds. 13,700 total! And the damage goes up 30% every time he destroys a building.

 

Level 5 2*Scorpion can't beat the first base

 

Level 19 Trypticon still gets beat with Metro having 1/4 health left.
