Quick Weapon Question

Postby Flashwave » Sat May 19, 2007 2:13 pm

Motto: "Our society's downfall will not be this war. The war IS our society. That which will get us will be the little things. Some humanoid race, some tossed cannon, the little things that no one looks out for. THAT is for what we must be vigilant."
Weapon: Twin Shoulder-Mounted Rocket Launchers
I'm moving between Lvl 1 and 2 with Titan. I'm prepping for the BBs, but in the meantime, is it better to keep the Dol he has, and wait for both Skill tactics, or pick up the Crossbow (FP3, SKL1) because it has a little more power for the seemingly same amount of Recharge time. Thus passing the Dol down the line for the next in line.

Titan, if anyone so desired to see

Normally I'd say skip the crossbow and preserve your energon stockpile but on the other hand game gets reset soon anyways so ya might as well. Not like you're gonna get a chance to spend it anyways, right?

Well, from a monetary standpoint, I could sell back the crossbow, and put that half to the Blades. Nerdy, I know, but I've been keeping a banking record of my team's earnings, and weapon/Armor costs. Not to mention the time taken to get the second Skill

Just an FYI but the BB stockpile has already run out. There are currently none to buy. Supply is at zilch.

Oh. Well never mind.

BTW. Gave Titan the Crossbow. We'll see how that works.

Roadburn loves his new rifle.

What so nerdy about that ! :-B

Yeah I do too, at least for this year :oops:

*Edit
oh yeah about the topic..... in the abscence of BBs, the Energon Crossbow is a good way to go, but the DOL is a good sturdy weapon to build on.

Your choice really.

I tried Titan with the bow. I diidn't get a lot of time with it, but I was unimpressed. Only now, My racer is having som much fun, I'm afraid to take the gun away.

you've had what two missions with it. fired a grand total of two times one of which was avoided; so on the basis of a single shot, you say you are unimpressed with it?

behold the mighty Science of the AWC!
