What kind of beast are you thinking of?
I enjoy collaborating and making a shared vision. Decide on who drives/shoots, what movement parts we move on, what style of weapon/gameplay. I want to build something that is unbeatable, not just effective. I usually rule out legs or hovers due to the nature of a dog getting a 2-for-1 kill as soon as he gets close. But clever weapon synergy can beat even those (undermounted guns, skinners, kapkan, kings, helios, gerridas opening up more potential, etc.) My dream fusion would be me driving a fast car with or without boosters and/or shields with a devastating amount of firepower between myself and the gunner. If dogs cant catch you and youve enough firepower to take out long range builds, what could stand against you? In PvP anyways.

Iāll bet that new engine makes builds like this more effective.
It depends roopull. The engine on a 9 icarus VII hover only removes 9%, netting it at 53%. The fused collosus gives 55% and increases the durability of the hovers. So for a sub 10 hover (which is too many, unless a new brick heavy hover takes over using the new engine, which would use icarus 4s instead) the Collosus is the better pick 100 out of 100 times.
For a good leg build or possibly a omni build with 8+ omnis, the new engine will most likely be better. If we end up doing a wheeled build, the Opressor or Cheetah will probably be the move. Although a 95 kph cab with Phobos can hit 110 with the new engine, which might be the play. It really comes down to making the fusion and trying the various engines and using your eyes to see which is better (which one is less sluggish). Ive a trick not many know about where i can make a wheel build literally never lose speed from cornering, so getting it up to speed and not wrecking would make a faster build more optimal, i think. But other factors like its pushing power, acceleration etc, are important too.
Fusion builds are the last frontier and theyve yet to be used to a meta level, but truly believe there is a way that a 32 energy, two person fusion could end up being tippy top tier meta in CWs. I wish i had a promo account with unlimited resources, because if i did, i would find that build.
My first build i would try would be a Hadron King Scorp spider build with a fusion of a blight triple undermounted firebug with 2 barriers. Put low cleareance tires on the bug backpack too constantly charge the blight perk at max speed. Comes in close, get bathed in holy green triple fire. Stay away, get picked apart by a semiauto Scorp with dual barriers protecting it. 5000 durability between the two. God help you if that build makes it onto cap. Just my first thoughts.
But alas, i fused 2 mismatched punishers back in the day for a whopping 300k coins, and now im a broke bish

Do the engine perks stack with fusion builds?
Meaning, would using the engine on both builds, but only having legs on one double the perk, making them insane?
From what Iām reading, the engine really only benefits legsā¦ I donāt knowā¦ donāt have it (yet).
All perks only affect the single car.
They donāt combine.
