How did i improve my % of victory by changing one robot in my hangar?


Recently I changed a robot in my hangar, that had a huge impact as I improved my victory % from 40 to 60%.
This robot is Orochi. 


Before i used a long range robot like Raven that can either shoot from up to 600m with 2 pulsar and 2 magnetar or triple jump to cross the map to capture a beacon. I also used Leech or Typhoon with also 600m range pulsar. I was most of the time starting with Demeter as a kind of beacon runner: Demeter can teleport to an ally capturing a beacon. Most of the time i could capture one or two beacons and help my teammates to survive.
I watched a video where Orochi was used with 2 anciles. I found it fun and wanted to try. I boosted a second Ancile and started to play Orochi as a starting robot trying to capture quickly the central beacon. It worked very well, i had victories after victories and often we quickly have 4 or 5 beacons.

Usually the time i take the central beacon my teammates capture our 2 closest beacons. I usually stay on central beacon to keep it until a teammate come or i spawn myself my next robot on it, or if my teammates are here and control it, then i run to another beacon: the beacon not protected by reds, often home beacons. Sometime there is no free beacon. In this case either i replace my robot with another one or i just bother my ennemies and protect my teammates by sacrificing Orochi by being between a red and a blue.
For modules I use Last stand to stay alive longer, battle born for the same purpose and anti-control as i don’t want to be locked down or frozen.
For drone i use Nebula who can give me a second life by giving back 58% of life when i take 100k dmg within 3 seconds. "recurrent in trouble absorber" is also extremely useful as if i take 70k dmg within 5s i get an absorber shield stopping all weapons fire. The 2 square chipsets are used for "Recurrent emergency defender" that increases my defence when my resistance drops under 35%.


For active module i use Jump to reach faster the central beacon and be able to quickly go to another one. I usually jump when my ability is going to finish in order to optimise the speed. Because if i jump at 80km/h, the speed will be still 80km/h during the jump (even faster i think).


This setup is fun to play: i like to run around the map capturing unprotected beacons or just distract my opponents.
If you have an Orochi, you should give it a try.
Let me know if the comment please how it goes for you if you try it or also if you have other good setup for Orochi or another good starting beacon runner.
Cheers commanders!

How to win on Abyss map?

Image
Hi commanders! Abyss is my favourite map on war robots so when I saw Pixonic asking to write strategy articles about it, I thought it is time to write a new post on The Art of War Robots (TAOWR). Abyss map has been created using the idea of War Robots community, so it is a War Robots fan's map. For more details on the creation process, click here. At the beginning, I was not a fan on tele-porters, but now I understand the benefit: that allow to make a big map smaller. A bit map is interesting as more elements, buildings, etc, but the problem is when you have your Arthur in a corner on the map, it takes ages to go to the opposite. It creates also infinite possibilities. For example Yamantau map was the most hated map because snipers wait for robots crossing the map to shoot them. So was quite static. But now the Yamantau could come back, just need to add a few tele-porters and problem solved. Beacons of Abyss map: D and E are home beacons and the most difficult to capture for the op

War Robots Strategy - Know yourself and know your enemy

Hello, This is the first of a series of strategy posts to apply on battlefield in order to get the best ranking of the battle and increase the chance to win. Both winning a match and having a good ranking among your team is important to get better reward (Silver, Gold, Keys, experience) Know your enemy and know yourself “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.” -- Sun Tzu - The Art Of War This principle is applicable in all confrontations, not only in War Robots. It is very important to know very well your robots, weapons, pilots skills and drones to maximise their output. I am not going to detail how to play each robot here (I will do it in other separate posts), but it is important to know your robot ability and optimise it. For example Leech is weak when his ab

Hi, This is the top 10 of War Robots bots based on their usage in Legend League Beginning of 2020-10 after Update 6.3. For each robot weapons most often used are listed. Enjoy! ----------------------------------------------------- Number 10: Tyr 5.5/10 Atomizer Shredder 10/10 Scourge Spark 10/10 Igniter Rime 10/10 Tyr is a tank and a healer but also deal decent Damage with 2 Medium + 2 light slots. His weakness is his speed. Works well with Fortifier modules to reinforce its physical shield. Very fun to play as very tactical. Other good options for healing are Nightingale and Mender. ----------------------------------------------------- Number 9: Phantom 5.5/10 Igniter Shredder 10/10 Spark Scourge 9/10 Cryo Rime 9/10 Cryo Halo 9/10 Phantom is one of the best beacon runners if not the best. His speed, resistance and his teleportation that allows him to come back to a translocator he let behind him. It is the perfect robot to start a match and run to the central beacon. -------
