kima.3045 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 robot - has a lot of armor/hp - way too much damage - chase you so you can't get LOS (loss of sight), compare to other pets that are slower. - low CD time, if you kill the robot very quickly can be summoned again. is really boring for the player or the enemy to fight a robot, as player i have no challenge, send robot. sit down and nap as a player fighting a robot? for that i go pve, there is no set of skills that challenge the players. even damage is so much that can kill a player while downing an engineer. if the CD was longer like 4 min. or way less hp, and for sure less damage 2 1 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bethekey.8314 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 noob - has little armor/hp - way too little damage - avoid you so you can't get in range (loss of sight), compare to pros that are faster - long respawn time, if you kill the noob very quickly cant be summoned again for 15 seconds. is really boring for the pro or the enemy to fight a noob, as pro i have no challenge, send noob. sit down and nap as a pro fighting a noob? for that i go pve, there is no set of skills that challenge the pros. even damage is so little that can kill a noob while downing an pro. if the respawn timer was shorter like 5 sec. or way more hp, and for sure more damage 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost never run. Zikala is one of the better mechanists I've seen but his build and style of use is a bit different. In general to kill a mechanist you basically run circles around the robot while targeting the mechanist. They get one free port. The mechanist itself is typically very squishy. IF you have elevation and the robot is chasing you you can go up stairs, the jump off them and the robot has to go around. The AI is predictable. The big attacks are quite telegraphed... the fields are annoying because it is relatively fast, but if it didn't have that it would be utterly useless. I am happy when I see a mechanist on the opposing team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
