If you've configured your team right, you shouldn't have that problem. If you think you're running low, you can always ask your fellow bots for a donation; there's a seperate faction threads for the game where you should be able to ask. And at L0, CR costs for both missions and the arena should be nothing.

At Level 0, you're probably better off in L0 only missions and the arena.

And welcome to the game.

He means pending stat points wisely, at your lvl you should only really be interested in strength and speed. Don't bother with the other stats and don't worry about weapons because all the good lvl 0 weapons are sold out. Pretty much all of the ones that are left do less damadge than if you buy a point or 2 of strength.

Just had a quick look at your team. Don't bother with Endurance at lower levels. You want to focus on Strength (Damage and armour), Speed (Hitting and dodging) and Courage(acting more often). There's a useful guide for beginners stickied on the main forum, and asking in the Autobot forum will get you plenty of help.

Also, when V2 comes round, you may want to change to the Decepticons.

The Autobots suck and lose a lot.


If it weren't for their ability to pump out thousands of meat-shields an hour, this war would already be over.

Why switch from one archaic gas-guzzling group of gear heads to another?

You can select the robot modes from the list that are found when you hit the Upgrade button on your character profile. You can then invest XP into their Robot abilities, which boost stats a little bit in combat.

Hope that helps :PEACE:
