im bout 2 give up on this game. i cant win for losing doing either the missions or arena or even that bbg. i used to have good tactics for my transformers but now they cant manage to even make me enough energon. and i bought all those minicons and they were as worthless. if im losing right now with them, i dont even want to know how bad i will be when they officiall debut with the reset

Wait and see what version 2 has to offer before quitting; apparantly things are meant to be a bit more even (there are more autobot players than decepticon players, so that's generally why we keep getting outnumbered and slagged more often at the moment).

Don't spend money on minicons. Just concentrate more on gaining exp. and getting the upgrades you need to do better. Once your bots/cons are fine for the level you're in, and you can keep your energon reserve steady, then you can try minicons. I get by my fights everyday not spending energon on a single minicon.
Yes they're advantageous, but only if you're absolutely positive that they will make a difference while not affecting your energon bank (I experimented with them a few times and barely got a better feedback).
But don't take it from me. I'm still a lvl. 1-2 Autobot owner. Just saying from my experiences.

I have only one suggestion: DON'T BUY MINICONS AT LOWER LEVELS (1-5) !!!!!!
They are better at flushing energon away, than BBG!

Only if your losing; Which we are and giving the autobots yet another adavantage since they are less likely to die and loss their minicons. And it's all thanks to the bots supierier numbers.

bots superior numbers is why the bots don't even have any minicons to buy...that and the fact that we are all rich b/c of energon fairies created by a bug that made a couple bot billionaires who have shared the wealth.

The Autobots have billions of energon to share around and hugely superior numbers?
And people wonder why so many cons have left recently?
matthewvilleme; could you posts this in the 'con Darkmount forum? I have a few sugestions that may help as i fight alongside you in missions quite a lot.

If people are leaving because of energon problems they're fools.
You know all too well that all a person has to do is ask. We may not have billions to share around but we do what we can.

Have faith dude, things will get better.
The advice from Chaoslock is sound - don't waste money on minicons

If you are going to buy minicons, save it for the Electrum one.
It's the best investment, as you are most likely to hold on to it the longest (the whole point of it is to keep you from dying).

Agreed, though I find the electrum minicon works best and survives longer at the lower levels where you will come up against robots with less strong offensive capabilities.

Yep. Having superior numbers and that stupid energon bug sound like huge advantages for us, but there are definite downsides, like us folks who are supposed to be able to afford minicons can't get any cause they're sold out to folks who weren't supposed to be able to afford them.
As to the OP, I see you on the opposite side of plenty of missions, you're a good player. Try to stick it out for V2. Things will likely be very different. Heck, in the beginning things are going to be totally random 50/50 because no one will have any stats.

Stop your crying

Nobody likes a whinner! Your jay leno con has over a million xp! Get over it there was a time when I was at level 1 and never won! Besides the way the cons play! With all that strafing and ramming. HA! My advise! Don't battle beast gamble!
I will say this! I hate RNG with a passion!
