#

Save up for something better like shell

patent spire
#

I really wish I didn't sell shell ;-;

#

I wish i sold my 6 kumihos when they were worth 5k gold each

patent spire
#

Yoooo what

#

Only t2 bot worth buying with gold is raijin in my opinion

sharp iris
#

Na

#

Rajin is bad

#

The shield is tiny

#

It dies to orkans

mossy halo
#

It's great until gold. And any physical shield bot dies to orkans lol

#

I use mine as sniper so try not to engage close quarters. And it's hard to snipe because of physical shield

sharp iris
#

The phy shield of rajin is tiny

#

well you shouldn't buy t2 bots that cost gold

mossy halo
#

That's true now that you can get t3 for gold (mender only lol)
That wasn't the case when i bought my raijin.
But it's my favorite bot rn so i don't regret it

dim sparrow
#

you can buy all t3 bots for gold thonk

#

and some t4

mossy halo
#

Yes.
But mender is the only one worth buying is what i meant

dim sparrow
#

you'd be surprised

mossy halo
#

Loki is definitely same as mender. Just hadn't came to mind till i started thinking about t3 as general
Raven is good
Hellburner is very fun
Bulwark is tanky

The others haven't cought my attention but I've rarely seen most of them so that might be just me

But that's about it. I don't think other than mender and loki any of them is worth investing in long run

Nope I'm free to play... that bot is easy to kill.. but can survive laser snipers

#

Save up for 5th slot

#

My brother can almost kill a couple titans with his one Rajin

patent spire
#

Meh.. those weak....

Just get enough gold to buy 1 tier 3 bot in workshop.. it's possible only for t3 but not t4

patent spire
#

If it killed, then don't say almost.... :/
Could say the same thing with
Leo, ao qin, Natasha, hmmm. Free fury I got from early silver box

#

I killed titans with those

modern arrow
#

I’m very skillful with my MK 3 Rhino… and I do insane damage. Same with his Rajin

patent spire
#

What league are you again?

modern arrow
#

Diamond 3

#

Why?

#

And the only reason why I have 36% win ratio is because of dumb pay to wins with one shot MK 2 Weber deals, plus all the other MK 2 deals. They should remove those

patent spire
#

Wrong reply thing lol

#

Diamond 2 with 46% win rate
My only problem is my team not doing things right

#

Oh wait.. I'm diamond 1 with 44% win rate

sharp iris
#

I have a silver account. Rajin is horrible

#

Dont be fooled by the hp, 2 heavy slots and phy shield

#

It gets easily targetted and lacks ability to stay safe

#

When escaping

#

Carnage is worse

#

1 taran and ur ded

#

Id say loki is pretty w

#

Its very very annoying in gold- leagues

Cool, now level it up and put great weapons on it

If you want to win more, don't buy any of those. If you want to have fun, go ahead.

So this is my raijin.
My highest lvl bot, took around 6 mil to get it to lvl 10 i think and just a few days.

Guns on the other hand took a while. And main reason it's good is because it has good guns.

It's not useful on all maps, it's basically a stationary long range turret with high hp.

So here is why i think it's a very good short term investment up to gold league (and above if needed) specially for f2p:

1: it's cheap. 2500 gold might be alot for new player, but it's the cheapest good thing they can get with gold.
2: it's nice. Specially with the skins but the concept itself is pretty good. Wish it's sheilds were larger or it's legs wouldn't stick so much out but it's a dope bot nonetheless!
3: it's fast and cheap to upgrade. Based on wiki it takes 11.5d and ~60mil to get lvl 12, but they've changed that recently and i think it takes around 25mil to get to lvl 12 now. That's alot less than t4 robots. Meaning you can get a very decent bot and have fun with it while working on your t4 bots.
4: it's expendable. So now you have a mk2 lvl 6 raijin. Upgrading it any further would be meaningless unless you're a collectioner. And you finally got the behemoth/erebus that you've always wanted. Just switch it! Not like you bought it in a pack just for it to get nerfed.
5: it makes use of little. So it has 2 large hard points. As you know light and large weapons take the same amount of silver and time to up. But the damage is very different. And on top of that raijin gives a 40% increase.
So you get most out of minimal investment in it's guns.

Now why i think it's only a short term investment and not good for gold and above: because it isn't. In higher leagues you need t4 bots and that 2 extra module slot to get an edge. Thats just how it works. I'm probably going to use mine in gold but thats just because i have to as it will be my highest lvl bot for a while. But I'll switch it for erebus when i can.

U don't need a lot of t4
Mender is t3 and works well in groups

# mossy halo So this is my raijin. My highest lvl bot, took around 6 mil to get it to lvl 10 ...

why raijin is bad. 1. Leo is a much better brawler with simillar tankiness, higher firepower, and much more cheaper than raijin.
2. if you're looking for a sniper build then natasha is better with higher firepower. Also snipers have to be mobile and the physical shields for raijin dont really help much for a sniper.
3. raijin is slow. and is easily targetted. Its expensive compared to many other better t1 bots.
4. 2.5k gold is actually a lot for a newcomer. They would rather use natashas with 1m silver than 2.5k gold raijin.
5. its expensive and only a little better than natasha.
6. There are lots of other better choices which are more flexible rather than this immovable tank. (what i mean is very slow)
conclusion. Raijin is expensive yet only a little better than bots which are much cheaper.

When options like natasha and leo exist

#

The physical shield also gets savaged by blast shotguns which I see being run everywhere in low Diamond

raijin is a very vulnerable bot compared to the meta, it may be cheap, it may look formidable for its low value, but it will still look like an easy target to pretty much every other meta bot. only get and upgrade raijin if you are so unlucky to get other meta bots, otherwise no. the raijin could be a very good bot but sadly the meta is too broken for raijin to compete

#

raijin’s advantage over leo and natasha is its ability to increase both defence and offense along with raw power, which is not a bad choice for 2.5k gold over a silver bot that has no ability and only relies on raw strength

#

2.5k gold is a big big investment for a f2p newbie

#

They should save it for mk2 robots or modules

we do have a lot of gold sources now tho, and less uses for them
