Borg battle royale mega thread

[NIkto Barada]

this place is to debate, store and find tactics for borg battle royale.

it is always a good idea to bring combat pets. specially if they have separate cooldowns. then there is certain weapons, like the kuumarke weapon, that the borg is having trouble adapting to.

sigh, im gonna post to links to reddit here, would the mods be so kind to forgive me?

ok this 2nd link states that the borg kingdom enemies can adapt to physical weapons.
so it seems theres info from prior years already out there.

sadly i cant tell the alternate universe borg from prime etc.

[andreasaspenberg575]

eh, i would not recommend that. you could get banned. i nearly got banned for it. i got warned that if i posted links again i would get banned.

[NIkto Barada]

wait what?! why?

[andreasaspenberg575]

posting links is forbidden and considered spam.

Bring a high damage weapon as well, the Booleon Cannon is excellent for example. Just remodulate every so often.

... what links where those.
I never heard of anyone getting banned or warned for posting off-Steam links as long as those were not scammy or otherwise problematic (like expired security keys and whatnot or pornographic / otherwise adult content).

Not saying it's not true but Steam has simple but effective filters to block out websites it doesn't like so I'm assuming you either spammed too many in too short order or something else triggered someone or some system.

But again, not saying it's not true, just surprised if it is.

good equipment is the breen cryoshaper set. the ice pistol does a lot of damage, though you need the entire set for maximum firing speed.

[NIkto Barada]

well , several ppl mightve simply toxically reported him, ive had that happen once for no reason - no spam post no links.cs just tells you you were warned and that you can do something against it.
but ive also seen several of my posts never being posted at all, discussions never started that kinda thing. im guessing autofilters will also react to discussion starts that are too short?

Tactics: Aim the weapon at the opponent and fire it. Important, if you don't do any damage, it won't work.

You don't really need sophisticated tactics. Just kill them and prevent them from rising again. Every now and then shoot the knots higher up when they pop open. Then tear apart the final boss and you're done. It's not that complicated.

people think it's hard? That makes me laugh because it really is pretty darn easy.

I got got for it Sirius; i had a punny title about cats when walking through turning that guy who runs away into the Iconian gate after Hakeev gets his 2 taps behind the ear into a cat with the Halloween transmuter wand so you can blow him up with your orbital bombardment along with the Iconian gate. Added a yubie tubie link in case peeps didn't catch the pun I was making about it and Al Gorithm threw me in the penalty box for a day. I don't even vomit up all my wikis and help site links for newbies anymore because that ban hammer be taking mighty Thor swings all around the place Hoss.



edit: Although it's entirely possible they just think my jokes aren't funny and I'm assuming it's happening to everyone else too, lolz.

[NIkto Barada]

thats bc its the type of opponent. kingdom seems toughest with ranged adaptation to physical.
the links i posted got that too, but its literally everything and the kitchen sink.

[Vuyek]

this can be easiest or hardest TFO to complete, depending on teammates.

[NIkto Barada]

yes. and on enemies.
reddit reported that theres 3 non prime borg we can encounter .each with their own specials
