So I decided to put a series of polls out with a bit of a thought exercise. If you're caught in a situation where you have to use a bot from a certain class while at a disadvantage, which bot would you want to take with you?
I thought this might encourage some interesting discussion, and get people thinking not just about how bots perform in ideal situations, but what tricks they have up their sleeve when the odds are stacked against them.
For this one, I honestly think Megatronus might have broken the poll, but I'm interested to see how it plays out.
I'll be doing one poll per day(ish), following the class wheel. If anyone has any ideas, suggestions or improvements, let me know!
With their melee heavies, Ramjet and Mixmaster, I have to think would be useful against Techs that can mess with and/or benefit from ranged attacks....Blaster (Interference/Repair), Soundwave (Sonic Shield) Shockwave (Shock charges). Mirage too can avoid ranged attacks with his heavy but he doesn't use his heavy much.
Now with Megatronus it's a no-brainer. IH was my fav. I even use IH against HA-nanojack, but Megatronus' can just dark-burn thru anything. I'm not sure if his red Relic can suppress Tech's shield, if yes, then he doesn't care about class disadvantage at all.
I've had Galvatron for a long time now, he's quite reliable in the damage department. His heavy with 30 charges is pretty good in damage, with the dark burn added it can deal loads of damage to a bot without issue.
Megatrons impair charges are really good. It definitely would help at a class disadvantage. Plus all hail Megatron sig is useful when at low health. Good damage too
