The cooler cabin is going to be the thing people complain about the most. I already have ideas for a few different kinds of builds that can take advantage of it.

This change was what this cabin needed.

I think the two machine guns are what some players will complain about.

You might be right. They look like they’ll be hard to shoot off. The legendary one will be pretty deadly with the cooler cabin. The epic one doesn’t look as scary to me, as it seems like it will require too much skill for most players.

Ease of use really just comes down to accuracy, which they both seem to have. The epic one reduces spread as it it heats up which is just going to make it more accurate too. Even if the rate of fire is reduced more shots on the mark matters.

My feeling on the epic one is that it will function more like an AC, but with less range and no explosive shells. I think there’s still a use for a gun like that, but I don’t see it becoming dominant.
Of course that all depends on how much damage per shot, and how much range they have.

From one video I saw on the DPS meter the epic came in at around 1888 dmg for the 10 seconds. Which isn’t that bad considering my unfused arbs push 2390 with two seals. They did that test run with 3x seals and the torearo(sp?) cab. I didn’t see if they were using a co driver though so I’m treating it as ball park figures. In the same vid they did the Nothung on the new epic cab with 3 coolers that pulled in 3003 dmg in the 10 seconds.

Thanks for doing the math on that… I was wanting to, but laziness won the day.
I hear ya there. That’s what I was saying when they just gave us the preview of it. I’m hopeful, though. When I did play drones, it was either in lower PS PVP or just farting around in the Adventure mode. I still do the latter from time to time when I’m playing remotely with a crap connection. They did switch it to a medium cabin… I didn’t catch the speed, though. That’ll likely be the determining factor.
Playing drones WELL takes a lot of effort, luck, and paying close attention to the mini-map. fingers crossed
EDIT>>>
72kph…
Put it on Augers, max out the mass to get the auger melee bonus… Golden eagle to keep it at 70kph… could be a little brawler.
Or, put it on any wheels with a cheetah & that’s totally viable.

Oh, so that’s a Fuze cab and nothing else. And a 72kmh one
Welp, a bit niche U_U
I was thinking owls and grenadiers…
Hawks are on the lighter trade list so you’ll probably see a fair number of them. Specials are trading at 140 each.
So it’s a dronequeen cabin, for flying drones only. Meh.
It’ll probably be quite strong with grenadiers.
I’m curious how the perk will work with annihilator, since it already has a targeting function. Also curious if it will do anything with Yaoguai and Vulture.

new radiator cabin + 3 nothungs + a daze + a generator so it can carry all of that
This combo could work

Ah yes, the parts that sit in my inventory most of the time because only having 1 is pretty useless and fuse events don’t have the same fusions than the battle pass parts so you can never have matching fusions

please speak for yourself. i really like drones but they are just unplayable most of the time. i enjoy drones alot and wish they could be more playable in pve. in raids enemies target them instantly and they are destroyed within a second which isnt a good thing. you cant even properly defend yourself with them due to the enemies insta target ai. they just kill your drones and come after you the instant they are gone leaving you unable to defend yourself.
i love drones, but something needs to be done to better their gameplay honestly.
yeaaaaaaaaaah we dont talk about that.
yeah boooooooy! i love drones but they are just to bad to use in pve and raids… i wish they were better in raids and whatnot.
oh dnd, havent met anyone who does that xD
i have a thought of that myself coughshotgunscough but i think we will let the dust rise and let the stand storm blast some people before hearing the complaints.
why? the machine guns seem fine to me.
only issue i see with that cabin is some drones take a while to activate upon dropping them, like fuzes. activating the perk right away would just be a waste unless the drones are fused for activation speed.

I meant the Gungnir, the one that gets more accurate
But looking at this idea, this can already be done with 3 adapters and 1 daze, with the added bonus of not having to use a heavy cabin. Need to see how much damage the gungnir does but…yeah, this build can already be done
The cooler cabin seems like it will make a very nice Nothang spider. I wonder if this will be better than a Nothang Beholder hover with a couple of fused coolers. The Bigram perk is super good for machine guns, so it is probable that the Hugin Nothang Spider will at least be better in some ways than a hover.

Oh… i want it so bad.
1152 kg vs 320 kg.
You know what? i can repurpose my frontal plows and make a cradle just for the new gen, and leave my freight train plow at the front with the new snow plow.
yeah, durability will be much higher than already is and i will sell my Apollo that’s collecting dust all this time.
There were games were i survived several players that suicided on top of my build… with this new gen i don’t know.
But for rammers, lancers, and dogs? it will be good for them to.

I already did the math, this thing needs to be at least 200 hp for me to use. Too many times when you try to rush(or even ganked in your spawn) and get trapped in a kapkan by an incinerator user and what incinerator player doesn’t use kapkans. If they buff the hp by just 30 to 40 points I think it will be worth it but even then I most likely will stick to the apollo.
