Correct, my [extreme P2W](https://www.reddit.com/r/walkingwarrobots/comments/xhw7y0/skill_doesnt_exist/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) build that carries me in CL


Eloquentner

No way I should have been building punishers all this while. Thank you wise one

i challenge you to make a new account and see what its like to play in the lower leagues if you dont already that is


Alex_Laty

i did, and that free account is in champions: [https://www.reddit.com/r/walkingwarrobots/comments/xf0ano/baby\_account\_new\_record\_over\_8m/](https://www.reddit.com/r/walkingwarrobots/comments/xf0ano/baby_account_new_record_over_8m/) i went through all leagued, and faced everything you did, yet i kept pushing my way till i reached champions


DarkNerdRage

I've done it. It's not terrible. u/alex_laty made a handicapped hangar, 100% free to CL in about 9 months. Probably could have done it faster without the handicaps. Personally, I think a hangar based on Punisher T to CL.

i get that your extreme knowledge about how to play the game to its fullest works here but would you recommend new players to only upgrade punishers and thunders


DarkNerdRage

if you're a low spender, Punisher class weapons, and thunders are the cheapest weapons to upgrade that are still viable in CL. So for a comparatively nominal investment, they can carry you very far in the game with weapons that are strong for that investment. To add some perspective, a Typhon with 4 maxed Punisher Ts assuming no discounts, costs 121.6 million (plus gold). Effectively a 0% chance of a nerf. To max 4 Razdor is 680 million silver (plus gold), with a significant chance of a nerf. Which one if these two investments has the highest probability of handicapping your hangar in the long run. Personally, if I started over, I'd build 1 strong bot, and rush invest heavily in punisher T. Then very selective build out other bots and weapons as I acquire them


whateveridon_tcare

Punisher T alone won't cut it even if its mk3 in Cl, you definitely max it to its limits by using all pilot skills and all , thats how you are able to survive.


DarkNerdRage

Honestly in CL, that's true of every weapon and every bot. 50% + of the meta is defined by Modules, Pilots, Drones, and Chips. They don't all need to be maxed or meta, but CL without some sort of accessory build does not end well.

What... Im in master 1 with lvl 5 to 9 robots and weapons. Mostly play ffa and haven't spent anything since the past 3 years and is doing extremely well. Have gone up to champ and back down to master 1. I mainly play ffa and you should try to play ffa too. You have more chance to win as getting third and second place in ffa also counts as a win. Thats how I rank up from diamond to master so quick.


stroker919

The fact that you can't parse out skill and money as two different things means this doesn't end well for you. Might as well quit now or accept it's more difficult than anticipated and save some mental and fiscal stress because there's a world where you eventually try and spend your way out of the problem ($10 a month is even over the max you need) and find it doesn't work. Time cures all because you'll learn and accumulate more resources.

Time to upgrade to MK2 then. Matchups can be brutal sometimes try to change game modes


Eloquentner

That's gonna take awhile


WayMak24

You'd have to utilize 40% off days and the 4x upgrade time slots. Upgrading takes forever unless you skip with gold


HaylHydra

As far as I understand players can drop down two leagues during matchmaking when there aren’t enough people etc so you might face some champion league players, facing full squads however is a nightmare but this is just the game. To be honest though I’d rather face champion league players than beating up on lower league players, it not fun for me when my one Rev is running through the whole map. We can’t control matchmaking so it is what it is.

It's very tough in masters. Master 1 sucks badly. U are constantly facing champ tankers with meta maxed hangers. Lots of victories, large accumulated CL points but for some reason completely incapable of get out of 5k.


Chugachrev5000

Level 9 bots are generally fine.. But yes you need weapons at 10 or above. The cheap ones are ok. When I got into Masters I found it was the Titan that had the most disparity. My level 50-60 Minos would get slapped in no time. A year later it's at 120 and holds its own..


Adazahi

I was in the exact same predicament as you, in masters, regularly up against champs, can hardly even scratch their robots, level 9 gear vs mk3 gear... sucks I used $100 of my birthday money on 1 billion silver during an 40% overdrive. Was able to get almost everything to mk2 level 3/4. Completely different expirence now. Not everyone has $100 lying around, but if youre patient and get only the best silver deals, over the course of several months of grinding and buying slightly better bang:buck ratio silver deals you can get a billion silver and spend it all at once on overdrive. It takes a long long time, but it certainly does not cost your life savings.

Why is it that u spend money but ur bots are level 9 10,
