What is the best bot to kill any Primal HA combo on raid?

I can actually handle Megatronus. No problem. Rinox can usually beat him, and when he fails, Grimlock typically succeeds. But this Primal HA combo is PISSING ME OFF!!! I want to know THE BEST bot to KICK PRIMAL'S ARSE!
I figured out how to deal with Megatronus on my own, but I can't find a Tactician bot which can deal any serious damage to Primal without taking a lot of damage. At a loss here. Appreciate the help!
Also I have gone through the skills tree and added protections for HA but they don't seem to do anything. What does it take to seriously affect HA or neutralize it completely? Or do the skills in the skills tree hardy ever touch it at all? HA (Harm Accelerator) has been a constant thorn in my side since I started playing.

If the problem is HA, bring a bot that purifies. Then the problem is reduced to a Primal. That, I suggest test him in Rotk again and again to know his pattern. Especially how to not get caught by his sp1.
Yes, I fought on autopilot, and I know I need to learn how to fight manually, blah blah blah. I am very well aware the devs specifically designed parts of the game for manual fighting, learning each bot's fighting style. Believe me I know how much of a disadvantage I am at!
But I will continue to play my way for now, and need solutions for autopilot fighting.
Mv1 Prime, just heals up from the bleeds when you melee, so good.
Then if you're getting badly beaten, his damage output goes thru the roof so win win
Grimlock, really? Admittedly, I don't have a lot of experience with Grimlock, but isn't he a bit pillow fisted to deal with Primal's armor buffs?
Thanks for your help.
Grimlock, Tantrum, MV1, or Optimus Primal with 2 other beast wars bots can take on Primal, I really enjoy the Beast Wars synergy because when you have 2 with Primal all 3 bots can purify the HA
This. Heavy to purify, and then his hits deal 50%(? I think) armour penetration. Easy way to take him down.
Outside dinobot, g1 meg does the job fairly quickly. As does Magnus.
If no beast purification then I just try and finish it as soon as possible
Thank you,
For me, the easiest AND fastest way is Dinobot. He'll take some damage from the HA, but his class advantage reduces a lot of the HA damage to begin with. And with Dinobot, use heavies to get a bleed and then you can break through blocks and whittle him down to size very fast. Use SP1s on Primal. The armor breaks really make him vulnerable and the SP1 itself takes out a huge chunk of Primal's health each time. With the armor breaks, like the bleeds, Dinobot can punch through blocks with his basic melee attacks. It may sound like a lot of work, but I can tear a Primal down with Dinobot sometimes in less than 30 seconds and always in less than a minute and lose maybe 5-10% health from the HA.
I say Primal/Dinobot/Rhinox or Cheetor to form the legendary furry squad. Works every time
My r5 5* og megatron would absolutely wreck a 4000pi primal by autofighting in a raid, but if he was r2 or even r3? Probably not.
So the answer is "any substantially stronger bot"
I know I need to learn how to fight manually. And I am well aware that my bots have to be pretty freakin' maxed out to beat other high level bots. I know my limitations. Just wanted to know where I should invest my upgrades - thinking Dinobot. I just have to replace him because he is currently guarding my base with a SR.
It's either that or I max out Bumblebee and hope his high forge level and class advantage can handle it. He is handing the other bot I struggle with sometimes - Grindor.
Or I just max out Tantrum for now and bring him in whenever there are a lot of Brawlers on a base. I will sit on it.
Anyone else notice that half the time, Grimlock is an absolute beast, ripping apart other bots even on auto. But the other half of the time he stands there, or spews his first attack too early, or something. I get streaks of him acting awesome followed by really, terribly bad streaks. You would think his AI would be more consistent.
Oh and I do not fight completely automatically. I do time the SPs and sort of aid my bot that way - when they actually work with me. Sometimes I get frustrated, kick it into manual, and press the advantage. Especially when they are standing there, their opponent at 4% health or so, and just bullet sponging.
So I am not COMPLETELY on autopilot. I do actually do SOME work...
