Mega Mek: Has no one ever asked this b4?

[Booneblaster]

Could not find for the life of me any info regarding this obvious question from all the forums and "How To" or "Everything You Need to Know" pro youtubers out there..... (sometimes i wonder if all thier time and effort is aimed at getting a click rather than divulging any new or profound information. hmmm..... no way, right?)
So does anyone here know, does the level of Meks matter when combining to make the Mega Mek to fight the Alpha King?
Should I just scrap together 4 primitive meks or should i use my high quality meks? Because...you don't get them back if you win. And i don't think a primitive megamek will cut it (no pun intended) if mega mek quality/levels is a thing.

anyone ever thought of this?
Thx!

Use 4 primitive meks as the Mega mega has fixed stats no matter what you use to make it. So do not waste your good blueprints.

Alpha King Titan is easy to kill with two mega meks (Gamma and Beta King Titan are way harder as you do not get to use a mega mek) Also just using one mega mek and you will most likely fail due to gettting 'stuck' IN the King titan when he powers up to do the mega attack (and means you can't damage it to break the attack and will get wiped)

Having two mega meks = easy fight (make sure the other mega mek takes over tanking when the first gets low)

The only hard part of the Alpha King Titan fight is getting the blue prints to make two
M.O.M.I. used to combine the normal meks (which normally means killing the beta King Titan a few times)

The Beta King Titan is the hardest fight in the game and you will lose a lot of good gigas on that fight on offical servers.

Yes! Yes it is. Which does annoy me for not only the reason you have bumped into, but also because many tech channels will push the opinion that they *know* people want to hear etc. They want the 'likes and subscribes' over all else.

Thank you Nat, solid info as always :) I had thought about this too, just not gotten to the King Titan of any difficulty yet - currently breeding some gigas (First time for that too o.0 2K+ hours later lol). So this is good to know.

Ohhh cool. thx guys. Yeah I fortunately don't play official anymore lol and do single player, but difficulty is upped to 6. I did the gamma king twice due to not getting any loot the first time (I think because I expected the loot in my inventory and the king fell on top of the loot box so couldn't see it), lol I didnt even get the trophy from both gamma defeats although I got the flag (?). had good luck with just the forest titan and my bred managarmr. smashed the beta with the forest and the ice titans + managarmr. and I think I might reign in the desert titan as well for the final king. (both titans have survived so far).

BTW, i have floating damage text enabled. when the element veins have come up, the king still takes full damage while down. the king gets back up once the corrupted creatures have destroyed the vein. if you can, you could protect the vein and the king will just be wailed on and cant return damage. this is not what i have seen touted on youtube, they all rush to destroy the vein which frees up the king straight away. some claim the king regens while the vein is up. i didn't see it on the gamma, and wasn't sure if i saw it on beta. if he does regen, it is not worth destroying the vein over. just let your army do the beat down and protect the vein. although the managarmr is pretty weak now since the recent PVP nerf. but I could still take down the desert titan with a single mana if i kept really close. it just took me about 4x longer. Thx PVP for the millionth time!
