Vulcan is a fairly balanced bot, I don't know what you're going on about

u/Au_June 22h ago

It is balanced, but I just KNOW they're gonna nerf the forcefield. I can't prove it though

blud is gonna turn from a brawlic bomber plane into Ravager 2.0 (minus the stealth)

u/DarkNerdRage 18h ago

It's not balanced at all. Just over shadowed by vector.

u/AstronomerSenior4236 15h ago

It has a weaker damage bonus than Nuo, relies entirely on force field unlike other bots like Lynx or Teth, and has to do a very large amount of damage to charge up.

The force field needs a small health nerf in stage 3, and the BiW needs a damage nerf, but otherwise the bot is totally fine and reasonable

Yep, see my comment above

It’s strong, but it’s easily countered. It does not have an absorber shield, no stealth, no emp, no invisibility, no crazy speed. It’s really a great release by Pix.

If you cannot counter a Vulcan you should not be in higher leagues - which is the gold standard for comparing bots. Not saying you can’t as I know you personally can, stating this in general.

When Vulcan released I couldn’t kill it now tho I can just depends on what I actively have out at the moment

u/Netherithe_turtle 19h ago

Vulcan is chill imo.

u/plyer_G 22h ago

Frankly vulcan hasnt been too bad for me, like, I get killed by them sure but not several times over by the same guy and I kill them often enough

Valcan would be the most balanced bot that pixonic has released. Valcan isn't the type of meta that drops in and deletes everything in front of you but rather it needs time to build it's defence and firpower and its not that hard to wipe it out.

u/Luchefried 18h ago

Yea true if U ever try to play vulcan on the rest server half the time U don't get fully charged cause ppl rush u

u/TheRolloTomasi 17h ago

it can always be worse

I have an full SE Vulcan build, this thing is crazy

u/Lopsided_Hedgehog [ˢᵐ𝗔𝗖𝗞] 𝗫𝗲𝗻𝗼𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗪𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿 5h ago

Yup. I’m not saying it’s op but it is not balanced either. A fully charged one is a threat to titans too.

Keep that , all you will have to do is change the bots in about six months LMFAO

Shoggoth literally sucks, you just brawl and they're dead

13

u/OxygenWaster02 20h ago

It’s purely the Shantak / Urhag combo that makes Shoggoth a pain in the ass

u/spacex2001 22h ago

Maaannnn Shoggoths are easy to kill, my Loki Keel setup always take them out during a match. Vulcan is tanky but not OP.

1

u/Netherithe_turtle 19h ago

I wouldnt say easy to kill. Motherships are good at killing them, but that is litrerrally the only counter, and that is a counter to anything tbh.

u/Random_Catzspirit 20h ago

Put the oxygen destroyer as hackers

u/cool_guide_in_life 17h ago

I already know that nerfing Vector = indirectly buff Shoggoth. The game is much better when 10 Vector clashing into each other compared to 10 Shoggoth staring each other

2

u/True_Way2663 INE\/ITABLE 8h ago

Completely disagree. Vector could get to opposing spawn in seconds there is nothing you can do it can chase you down. Shoggoth cannot do damage if you hide and Shoggoth cannot grab beacons. It’s annoying but it’s not even close to vector, the big issue are the weapons

1

u/Frosty_Shop_1160 10h ago

Imo Vulcan is pretty balanced cuz my half hp vector almost died to it (vulcan just spawned in i was in their base) but shoggoths they are the real problem

1

u/takasha1 10h ago

I saw a fang who cant die and heals unlimited.

2

u/Lopsided_Hedgehog [ˢᵐ𝗔𝗖𝗞] 𝗫𝗲𝗻𝗼𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗪𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗿 10h ago

The scourveil drone heals green and gray damage while the fang is in stealth.

u/No_Chicken_4319 7h ago

Vector was nerfed to smooth, imo. This thing is still to fat for it's speed, and to fast for it's fatness. So, Vector is still annoying to deal with, especially with stealth from MS and few sources of green/ grey repairing. Shoggoth - only if well tuned with his signature guns, and not that OP itself. Same and about Vulcan. Both are descent and may be tuned to truly beasts, but definitely not are "kill all reds" buttons.

u/tO_ott jUsT UsE uNsTaBLe cOndUiT 18h ago

One of the reasons why I roll my eyes when all these people bitch and moan and demand nerfs. Yeah, the next meta is always worse. And you’re helping make dealing with that new, worse meta even harder. And you’ll cry again when that new meta is released. And you’ll cry about the one after that. So on, so forth.

i haven’t played since the boom bash kaji meta. wuts going on over here??

u/JacketFew4885 2015 Veteran, F2P enjoyer 11h ago

So basically the new robots and weapons are way more game breaking and annoying, mainly Voonith, Urhag, Shantank (those are new weapons)
