Shame it wasnt me who did the killing blow but nonetheless 6 lvl 1's and 6 lvl 0's is enough to down a Judge. Sharkticon wasnt far behind, soon we will have them both!

This was by far my best exp pull 11k!!!!
He usually pulls between 5-6k...my strafers are pulling in anywhere from 0-6k, so even though its killing my mission succses rate I'll take the losses and the big chunks of exp!!

The only way I see us actually winning though is with 5-8 maxed out lvl-1 rammers.

Heres my best pull from a judge, my best from a rammer was about 1000 lessso far.

No because you fail to see the point i can conclude you are not omnipotent. Psych's right, rammers are the best way to win.
Everyone just see's this: OMFG amazing xperience!!!
When everyone should think: What is the best way to come out alive and win.

It's not that i dont like the experience they pull out of it, but my first and foremost objective is to win and claim a Judge head.

Unless you can round up 12 top end level one rammers, I have a feeling that winning an Ambush the judge mission with only one or two skilled level 1 bots/cons is an impossibility.....

It is my opinion that these missions are OS's way of helping some lowere level peeps level up for the end game of HMW v1.

just my omni... honest opinion

by **Violater** » Thu Aug 23, 2007 6:34 pm

Granted i considered that aswell, and that's fine with me, at this rate i might have a lvl 2 soon so im not complaining at all. But since ive seen it can be done, doing it has become my new obsession.

any linkage to this defeat of judge and sharkticon?

Seconded. It seems to me a group of 12 lvl 1's with appropriate minicons (Chargers/Lifters/Deflecters) *could* do it. An even spread of avoiders and rammers would be nice, though i suspect more rammers would be helpful. Repairers and strafers need not apply...

To this end my current tactics for "Ambush the judge" missions is to throw in one of my rammers and see what happens. So far I've had some pretty spectacular results, xp-wise, but no wins

Fuuny, I could Swear that Hornet's doing far, far better than the rammers

I don't ram but I gleam XP from the judge.

My courage is way up there though.

Pariah seems to be on the right track about the type of Minicons. Getting initiative up across the mission
will give more hits vs the Judge and Sharkticon.
The endurance of our common foes do very well against our attacks too which is why stronger consecutive blows must be
made.

And Violater, I like the XP myself too, but first and foremost
is the desire to wipe Cybertron of these invaders to claim
Cybertron for Decepticon Rule.

We must have caught the Judge and Sharky
at a bad time, seems they couldn't repel us 0's and 1's:

Took out my first Judge last night.

I've started a thread entitled 'High speed lvl 1 rammers needed' as this seems to be the config that's getting the best results in these missions and have been posting links to the ambush missions there as I've been spotting them. If you see that thread right at the top of the forum then there's probably a mission about to start (feel free to add a link to an Ambush mission that you need some support in). A wee bit of teamwork and getting some maxed out level 1 rammers in before the missions fill up with level 0 bots and we should be able to improve our win ratio on these.

by **Ouroboros** » Sun Sep 23, 2007 8:04 am

I've won about two or three of those missions, they're doable, you just need the right bots, the right stats, and a bit of luck (or so I think).

I can talk though, this has to be some feat of cheekiness! 100% with an ambulance! Cheek! :grin:
