Outfit Colossus.

[Raimei]

I get what their going with the outfit resources and such but how would everyone feel about a system where everyone had a token every 24 hours and could use that token plus all 750 Nanites to spawn a colossus.

Like for example, you have to be in a squad of 5 or more people that have the token (Preferably more than 5 people since it needs a lot of cooperation to keep one running anyway ) and one of you has to initiate a confirm message for the other players in the squad similar to a friend request for if they would like to use their token to spawn one for the day.

This way, in a ideal situation you would already have people willing to help with the tank while not having to be in a outfit and having a high position to even use one.

Of course it's just an idea and I haven't tested it myself against a Bastion to know how effective it is, so maybe there's a good reason for it being locked behind the outfit resource system but considering you can stock up 4 of them, I would assume they can get blasted pretty quick unless that cortium shield is being stocked up often.

For those who have used it, tell me what it's like.

I shot it a couple of times, outfit members can swap driver seats unlike the bastion. havent really engaged in much combat.

But i can tell you they are super vulnerable, i folllowed another outfits and he literally lasted 2 seconds, i think he got c4 directltly driving into battle.

Our outfit also went from full health to dead in like 10 seconds from a bastion bombardment, but it was pretty exciting watching it fly towards us like ohh ♥♥♥♥ we woke up the giant. Probably should have drove away at the point.

I think there is a meta learning curve these next couple of weeks, mostly people will not be using it effectively and getting demolished. In a couple months it should all change and we will now how to support and engange in it more effectively.

Your idea also could work like merit, so everyone can have aslong as they are in an outfit.

I just had a go in the collusus an did pretty good and learnt a bit especiially from the other players who failed....

I made sure i had a safe retreat place before i attacked bastion.... i smashed 3 or 4 of his components and then his mauler cannons attacked me and i retreated into the safety of a amp station and got stuck....

When i returned outside someone else had finished him off, so i felt i did a good job at softening up.

So i went to the nearest battle as there where no bastions, got some allies to gun/repair. Made a run at ti alloys inc, felt pretty strong, esp against infantry with 4 geckos....

But after 5 mins a tank collum came down from you know where and destroyed me... it was only two prowlers at front, but there was alot behind them a few harrasers buzzing around. but the two prowlers alone finished me off....

The low mobility and poor aim of the collussus really hinders it... I would suggest it be at the back of the line in a more defensive position than front line attack especially against other vehicles.

Yeah I was talking with some Outfit leaders on command voice earlier today and they were talking about it really decimating a bastion when used right but they can't hold out to small things like harrasers due to the slow cannon velocity with out using M.A.D which puts you in a more dangerous situation since you us HP in that mode too.

The problem with my ideal is that it gets a bit complicated, it's a bit all over the place with the system but it's something to work with at least.

Using Merit to spawn the Tank was what I thought it was originally gonna to need, like for example, 2000-5000 range of Merit spent to spawn one that way not anyone could spawn one without really considering what that spawning one entails and will cost them in the long run.
