I've shot our liaison an e-mail. I assume your in-game name in the beta was also "That Bot"?

Double XP weekend excites me as I unlocked 3 star Prowl, Sunstreaker, and Ironhide. If only I could get Grimlock and Wheeljack

by **Insidious** » Thu Jun 16, 2016 11:59 pm

Well, I'm starting to get some cohesion to my base. Little by little, I suppose.

Soon the question will be...do I spend? :lol:

No actually, i was GentlemnPyro in the beta. I'm kind of waffling between usernames at this point in my life, I have like 3 different ones I use with regularity.

I guess if you find a good package and have the money to spare. Personally I avoid paying for free games like this unless there's good incentive. Dumped over $100 of my money into TF Legends bit by bit a few years ago and I still regret that, so I'm kind of scared off now.

I've spent some money with good packages. Not a bank breaking amount by any means. I'm really enjoying it. Now need to find an alliance

by **Kleinomyte** » Fri Jun 17, 2016 3:22 pm

I broke down and spent $20 on one of the build bot bundles. Gonna try saving the coins for when some better characters come out but I am a weak, weak man so we'll see how that goes.

by **Insidious** » Fri Jun 17, 2016 11:07 pm

I'm pretty weak also. my finger got real close to one of the bundle buttons today.

Use the coins on build bots.

Seibertron has both Autobot and Decepticon alliances and we welcome anybody as long as you're active. Join us!

So I just realized something I may have already known but forgot. You can't raid specific players. My friend just joined and I was going to raid his base as a sort of hazing but I have no way of finding his base except by chance. And as far as I can see, no way of friending other players. Might bring these up in the suggestions box.

As JakePrime in the Seibertron Decepticon alliance I sent a PM in the other thread to jON3.0 for loot codes. Does anyone know if they are still available?

I call shenanigans if what you said is true about other players having their progress transferred.

It's really a question of can't or won't. They can, but they won't.

I've talked to the devs during the beta and this is basically what I got about the crystals. They are based of a % just like blind bag toys. You are just a lot more likely to get certain bots or items than others. So basically there are rare bots and very rare bots. If you score a good one, you should feel very lucky!

I've sorta noticed like Cobo said that when you use a bunch at one time you seem to be more likely to get good stuff. But the same could be said about buying a whole case of blind bags. In my experience each time you click use on a crystal the RNG systems spools up and you get a thing. I've blown through 10 crystals and got nothing but dupes of dupes in the same spree.

If you have coins, buy builder bots; buying crystals is almost always a disappointment. Builder bots are super useful and can be used as distractions during defense. They are great to scatter about because they grant no ability points.

I haven't spent any actual money on the game and probably won't. At the most I'd buy a bunch of crystals and then be sad about all the dupes.

by **Gaudreau** » Sat Jun 18, 2016 12:32 pm

Maybe because it's Fathers Day Weekend but my free crystals scored a 3 star Jazz and Blaster

. Blaster seems really cool with his summons. He's one my favorite characters too! Now, if I could only get Wheeljack and Grimlock

It's really a question of can't or won't. They can, but they won't.

I've accepted my reset at this point. It'll take some time, but I'll rebuild my collection of bots.

One thing I haven't figured out: do obstacles slow down invaders or just impede building? is there any incentive to not remove all of them? I removed everything ASAP in the beta but felt exposed at level 8. No matter how I built my base it seemed like there was an easy in because of the lack of obstacles, but I don't know if that's because of the obstacles or that their absence allowed me to push my base further back.

That Bot wrote:ldo obstacles slow down invaders or just impede building?

You know, I'm. Not sure. I thought they stopped attackers but I swear I've seen them walk over them and I think I've seen my bots do the same.

I left a couple big ones on my base, but they are on the sides past where bots can be deployed so no one seems to bother with them anyway.

Anyone got a clue on this?

News Credits: 226 · by **Burn** » Sat Jun 18, 2016 3:54 pm

Fairly certain they can just walk through them.

News Credits: 226 · by **Burn** » Sat Jun 18, 2016 5:51 pm

Reflective Ability
Found the best way to make this work.

There were a cluster of weapons (including a beam laser), so I drove the bot into the closest one. They all concentrated their attack on him, of course the attacks bounced back.

Ability wore off ... triggered it again and drove it into another of the weapons. They attack, attacks bounce back.

Did it three times all up and the beam laser ended up destroying itself.

Good strategy if you have the energy to support it. How do you deal with mortars? Their fire doesn't reflect back does it?

by **Gaudreau** » Sat Jun 18, 2016 11:23 pm

I'm addicted to this game. I already have Blaster at level 18 and am dreading the longer research level 20. I have Prowl, Jazz, Blaster, and Ironhide all due. I've been levelling other toons and 2 star versions to fill the void when they're due.

I really really hate that I can get dupes of dupes of dupes. I know that there are ultra rare bots but man, if I didn't see anymore Silverbolts, 2 star Jazz, and Powerglide, to name 3, I'd be lucky! But then I'd get Pyra 4 out of the next 7 draws. SMH

It's the damage that's reflected back, not the fire itself. So mortars can bomb me if they want, but they just end up damaging themselves as well.

by **Kleinomyte** » Mon Jun 20, 2016 4:30 pm

Yea, I was thinking of spending the extra coins on build bots but I thought the extra build bots might be less and less useful as time goes on. Also harder to keep enough resources to keep all those build bots occupied lol. I don't think they serve as a big enough distraction in defense to warrant the large hit to the wallet.

News Credits: 226 · by **Burn** » Mon Jun 20, 2016 6:21 pm

But they're a perfect distraction, you can use them as bread crumbs to lead attacking forces to your weapons, and they don't give off ability energy.

Okay, quick question?

I just won the 5,000 energon cubes but if I use it but don't have the capasity for the entire 5,000 will my cup runith over or will it spend like currency letting the remaining cubes sit in inventory? I don't wanna waste a single energon cube.

News Credits: 191 · by **Kurona** » Thu Jun 23, 2016 10:33 am

Okay so that event thing started, right?

Well I racked up eight hundred and something battle points, ran out of fuel cells, and decided to leave it for a bit and watch something till I got more.
When I came back, I now have 0 battle points. Anyone know what the heck's up with that?
