Lurker / Non-Poster Outreach

Meeting place for the Autobot faction.

Lurker / Non-Poster Outreach

Posted by Bun-Bun Tue Jan 15, 2019 8:11 am

With this next event looming now might be a good time to try to pull in some of the Autobots that don't post much... which is to say nearly all of them.

Wingz used to handle this stuff as she's more of a people person than I am (insert "You Don't Say" meme here) but I was thinking we could make a list of players we see in missions here and either I (*shudder*) or others can volunteer to make contact and try to gently persuade them to the boards.

Also if you've already contacted someone let us know here so we're not bombarding them.

Semi-Recently I've contacted the following and invited them to post &/or hit me with questions (& they've done neither):

Kurn96
BaltousPrime789
Wheelimus Prime
Red Sentinel
*Skycat*
odnah
The opinions expressed in this post are well-reasoned and insightful.
Needless to say, they are not those of SEIBERTRON.COM, its staff members, or any other site lackeys.
Anyone who says otherwise is itching for a fight.

I reached out to Zorian a while back and he told me he, "wanted no part of being in the community."


So that went over well....

I reached out to a few as well, let me comb my outbox.

A quick tip:
Until the weapons change you can probably do more damage if you drop some of your points in strength, use some of the xp to either get a lightsaber (2 skill), a Shatterblaster (1FRP, 1SKL), or (ideally) an XS2 (2 FRP but usually sold out), & then dump more into speed.
*Edit
Also it looks like you have a decent bit of Energon (compared to others your level) so you might as well turn on auto CR

Hey, thanks for the tips. And yeah, I have a bit. Guess it's because I really haven't done much beyond sending the 'bots to repair.

Building tip for your guys, just my opinion take it as you will: courage is really useless early on. I would focus on tactic, then speed and endurance.

Anything Bun says about weapons is gospel, I always take his advice. XS2 is my preferred weapon of choice for only 2 firepower, deals alot of damage.

Glad to see some new blood, I mean Bots on the boards!

I overlooked armor and weapons in this game, and since then I've been looking at things a bit closer. Installing armor and buying a couple weapons has already improved a couple of bots (even if only marginally and they still go stasis lock :lol: )

Best I can tell Bite is like ram, except is doesn't stun, and is also fed by strength.
Any weapon is fair game ;)^

We're not certain, but we think Bite is identical to Ram, including the stun.

Welcome back to the game BTW Raph!
