Acari and Atom now in exhibition

Haven’t seen any review bombs :slight_smile: we are not on PC.
Our reviews are fine.

Omnis are rightbelow top-tier rn, these feel way, way, way better. So I dunno. Feels OP to me but then again everything got +15kmh in 5 years except wheels.

I would agree with this but I still wouldn’t say they are broken. I had expected them to be worse i.e. like a heavy version of the omni.

I find it very lacking even as a support gun on other builds, on paper shooting at a huge brick of a build is being played off by numbers as doing big damage, but in practice I don’t see any parts popping off or getting weak

I did extensive testing on a dual gungnir 1 acari build, and then compared it to the same build but with just 3 gungnirs, and even without the damaging absolutely every part imaginable from the acari the three gungnirs destroyed off parts and finished off enemies way better than the build with an acari added. In fact it felt like Acari hindered the overall dps and rate of shooting off parts rather than aiding with it, and by just forgetting the acari all together you can strip guns and blow off modules rather than hoping the acari does something

Another cool observation is that the Atom makes your ride be just a hint taller compared to the Omni, so if you’re using somethign liek atoms on the front and back, and omnis on the side, the omnis don’t make contact with the ground or really help, but if you have atoms on the back and omnis on the front, you can tilt your build just a little bit so the front is a bit lower than the back

You must not play CWs. These are going straight to the A-tier META. If not S-tier. Put these on a quantum hover with 3 punisher builds and let the Acari work the enemies for the first minute or two. Then send in the Punishers and watch as their armor and guns gets ripped off like so much paper mache.

I feel like Acari’s purpose isn’t exactly to go all-in at point-blank on an opponent with MGs… It’s definitely more of a long range poke.

How often do you see people complain that they shot an enemy for 9 damage with 12 energy of scorps? That’s never going to happen with Acari. A single Acari in the enemy team will probably be a very strong incentive not to try and play the pokey game, especially if it has a cloak too to get cheap shots.
Imagine the frustration of hiding behind cover with a spider waiting for the fight to start, and seeing that you get nailed by a cheap Acari bolt in the toes because you’re too f*cking wide, for probably 3k damage or more… Your whole craft is down to 80% dura. Your movement parts, your weapons, your guns, your bumpers… GL if you have to tank a porc after that.

Makes me think it might be fun to combine with porcs or incinerators. Soften people’s entire builds in two different ways!

Inci’s would heat the target, but also reduce its current health, so I’m not sure it’d work too well. Acari + porc sounds brutal. Honestly I believe Akari+Hadron+King will be the optimal play, because you’re maximising the DoT uptime, AND dealing massive AoE with the mines to opponents that are down to 80% dura or less across the whole build. But Hadron + Porc might be pretty close too. Movement parts will go down pretty fast.

Neither is Gungnir, it’s the long range machine gun not the close range one

I dunno, I had a 4050 give or take, over 4000 hp for sure build and when testing out the acari + gungnirs against it, I was thinking it’d chew up the build way faster after first being shot with an acari, but I did not notice any real difference, felt like the rate of chewing up parts was the same with first shooting the build with an acari and then with machienguns, vs just shooting it with three machineguns

Lots of great info here.

Thank you for testing and sharing!

Normally they’d keep the lite and deluxe version of the packs up for longer then a few weeks but this time they’re here till the end of September
I need to log in the game to see if they’ve upped the prices of them as a lot of places who limit the time something is out up the prices

On the pc the regular pack is 29.99 euromoneys, which is normal, but the lite is 13.99 and the deluxe 63.99
Last time i paid any attention lites were 10 and deluxes 60

Oh okay thank you for informing me, yeah I know the deluxe pack is more expensive for sure as it was 59.99 before

I called their would be a long range electrical weapon, you can all thank me.

i think its more of a support type weapon then anything. you know, hit the enemy with it while dealing damage to ALL parts and using your guns to deal even more damage in combination with that. i want to try to use them in raids but i think medium is as high as ill go with it. it also has a limited firing angle to which might make it a bit tricky to use. if anything id say combining it with cannons or even machine guns would be the best idea for it. also it needs alot more ammo then just 7… like common devs. i think they gave it 7 cause they thought it would be overpowered? idk. also 40 explosive damage is pretty laughable to.

i find the atom to be an interesting concept for a wheel. i said in a previous post but i can imagine a legendary version of them that are bigger and deal damage when you steam roll someone.
honestly though i thought they were going to be alot bigger then what they turned out to be.
i like them though, maybe ill buy 2 more of them sometime and have 6 that i can build with.
i seen a guy in bedlam with like 10 of them on LOL :rofl:

and your complaining about that? let the clan wars kiddies cry about it hahaha! :rofl:

omnis ARE wheels. they are just classified as giant mountains that only thor can move because they are as dense as a neutron star and cant be moved by anything.

i think its a raid weapon in all honesty. it would be more beneficial in raids hitting an enemy with weak armor or an an enemy with high armor to strip them quicker.

cloak and shield. if they are running the nova then thats also dangerous as nova has that broken shield.

one of those with 2 porcs… ouch :face_with_peeking_eye:

The Atom

Atom seems to turn and face enemies in the rear much faster than Omni wheels. Omnis have trouble working from a stop or switching directions, and they have trouble making a sharp 180 degree turning radius. Atoms have the hover fluidity of not losing interia when you want to make sharp drastic turns.

Coupled with crazy tonnage, Atoms are shaping up to be quite a package. I want a set.
