wouldn't getting kills and fragging mech souls objectively favor fusor 3 over fusor 2? ;)

this is my loadout now for van, 3 fuse 3 adv repair kit 5 orb (3 years i was 3 adv kit 2) reading this thread however learning that armor fuse doesnt stack!? man im going back.

 

and with skill at map memory, specific player styles , and a good aim you can make sure your turret hardly ever takes a hit from behind as it can turn plenty fast enough to knock down a fly unless he is moving in sync and using air compressor verticaly over you then you gotta get more tricky (use landscape/walls to pin him from his movements usualy he wont notice a wall is there before you do so when he side boost into wall you land the punch)

My latest project is miniflak vanguard and if i meet brawler full hp close range he wins most of the time. Need good grenade tossin skills to be effective in miniflak vanguard. Turret mode might seem easy. But only rarely you will get people standing in front of you waiting to be killed. Turn rate cap in turret is a fuzzy bunny.

brawler is the objectively better by a small margin mostly due to its sheer hp and even a decent fuel tank (not efficient but big), and unless its been adjusted, the turret mode in brawler is fastest as far as rotation speed among the heavies with it, but thats a thing that could have very well died with tuning points.

 

however brawler also has more versatility than vanguard when you go hawkins, because if you can keep those fat auto cannons on the zerk or scoot that jumps you, he is roasted and toasted real quick, that and holy hell do newer players who try sniper hate a well placed meatwall that foces them out of their favorite hidey holes and ledges.

 

vanguard has nigh FRED speed though and a better turret buff then that lizard regen that gets horrible after taking dmg (breddy sure   it was 20hps before then 10hps after dmg instance occurs), and with good positioning and/or just plain skill it can REALLY contribute.

 

but its guns are too close quarters focused and brawlers with hawkins can kill vaguards at close range turret or no, with only the vulcan as the sometimes counter.

not all about being a turret, its secret is the mobility when in turret mode, if you hold the shield right and crawl around right you can keep the heat from ever getting on your back , think moving backward and his tow tries to land on your head and thanks to lag your shield may likely sorb the tows damage even though on his end his tow went on your back/head to the server/us your reversing may have got the shield just in contact with tow in time anyway just a guess
