WR has always been a resource management game in disguise.
I have no control on what Pixo decides to give or takeaway from me, but I can control how to spend what resources I have. Been only using the default 20pc repair since I started.
I will remove the unstable conduit immediately and go back to advanced rep unit, even tho i have almost 300k pc, the healing from unstable is not worth at all being 1.7%x45 secs (it takes too long to repair meaningfully) and i dont feel the need to shield break the enemy.
I noticed a drop in pc in the last few months and idk where pixo reduced them from as i have not spend pc a lot more than what i used to (i have or had unstable conduit on all my bots pretty much) good thing i have trixie hope on my weyland.
If a player spammed UC module 3 times in a 45-50sec span, it’ll cost them 210 powercells. So for UC module lasting 45secs straight is relatively the same cost. That’s why it’s at 200.
Now, do I find it ridiculous? 100%. No module should even have a duration that long
I came to the same maths conclusion as you.
As you said the duration is not necessary and the real question is, do you need shield breaker and mechanic for 45s. In my matches it's not guaranteed that I survive for that long lmao.
Hiruko builds will be moving back to the adv and normal repair modules I reckon.
RIP everyone's Bedwyr. It was meta for a week until they nerfed flamethrowers, and since then it's been #2 or #3. And that's been what, three weeks? Man, that was short-lived.
Ah yes that's exactly what I do too. I thought there was another nerf with this update. I run from beacon to beacon. When my TRAs are charged I have taken down a flaming Eiffel and a flaming Bedwetter, but purely through luck and timing my abilities.
Ok, thanks. A lot has changed through the years, like Gg used to mean gotta go. Now it's good game. I've seen Ui used for something other than user interface and Uc used to be user control.
Just trying to keep up.
I am aware of the long duration, it’s just an absurdly OP and expensive module, even spamming phase shifts as much as you can you can’t spent half the power cells per minute as you would with this module
So yeah, you can spend 200 pc if you dont have quartermaster skill every 50 sec with this module, matches last around 300secs, that is 300/50*200= 1200 pc per match! If you play 6 matches a day then 7200pc, that is 216k pc a month.. oof this is if you dont use a titan ofc and keep spamming the unstable conduit module.
To this day I've never equipped unstable conduit. Those of you complain 200 is too expensive should've been with me saying 40 was too expensive and I shouldn't have to pay for a mechanic in the game.
Yeah but it will be really good for extermination( but pix nerfed it like ugh. 🙃). Wished that they hadn't nerfed extermination or else this new version of the Unstable Conduit would be really useful in gathering resources.... but yeah, it will be totally horrible to use in regular battles as it cost too much per use and you can probably still get annihilated by strong/highly upgraded titan weapons(solid/high dps). Pixonic is probably trying to get us to use a ton of powercells and have us end up buying more... maybe they are trying to create more ways for them to make $$$.
No cells? No problem ChEAp gOld pRicE

Shield breaker module that lasts 45 seconds, well I play the Dagon and Ares and use the Paladin so I’m not playing until this goes away and I urge everyone else who is disproportionately affected by this game breaking garbage to do the same. Way to drop your player count Pixonic.
No, other bots have things of equivalent value that don't have braindead counterplay, for example there's no “anti transcender” module to nullify the Ravana’s strengths. 45 seconds of shieldbreaker is fundamentally unbalanced. Without any shield the Dagon is trash and the Ares is worse.
Using their shields on right time and place is the skill of shield bots if you don't have the shield Ares just becomes a higher firepower but slower and less durable ghost rogatka
I disagree. Dagon shield is way op and Ares just makes people think it's a tank when it's nowhere near a tank. Ive played since the game was called walking war robots and all the stuff being introduced is meant for players with less skill and more money than common sense. I'm F2P, in champion league, and very little stuff considered meta. No comment will change my mind about op lack of skill if he needs to rely on shields to the point where he won't play because of a shield breaker module that only big spenders will be using
The dagon is undoubtedly too durable. But the Ares or any other pantheon bot is not much without their shields they're way too weak for the current meta. You can say lack of skill argument for any robot ability , fenrir player need the 50% damage resistance cause they can't take cover or doge , shell players need the 800k hp shield cause they're brain-dead. I started playing when the dash bots came out. They pushed the non ability bots out of the meta back then you could say the same thing about the Griffin it needed that jump cause the players back then lacked skill. Any bot with an ability is susceptible to that argument. Dagon is still too strong tho no arguing that
Because I'm old school. All these stupid shields, mother ships, and drones make this game more for the low skilled player. Wasn't meant as rude, just a.fact that most of today's players can't play worth a damn without all that or the newest most broken op stuff available
But what are you getting for the cost of the power cells? Let's use advanced repair and shield break versus the new UC.
If you choose healing, in a minute of time your best case (having module and cooldown skills) is 18s of healing, or 16s of shield break. That costs you 120pc for healing, and 40 for shield break.
Now compare that to 200pc for 60s (with module skill) of both, with a 5s cooldown. 137 if you go with quartermaster. Now the healing is not as good as advanced repair, but it's better than any repair skill, and better than having a repair amp until it's 90% loaded.
I would argue that for those that use healing with any regularity, UC us actually a better overall deal, and its a no brainer with quartermaster.

Time to put this away for now ... As y'all know,
Dagon's nemesis is shield breakers. And Dagon without shield is like paper.
Hopefully see you in the next 7 weeks.
Wow, before it was 70. Right now I will say it’s much to expensive. Most expensive shieldbreaker
P2w
RIP. They will need to increase power cell payouts from Black Market, Supply Centre, and most importantly PVE. If these are the new going prices.
Well sir you know they are not going to do that.
What do you think, they want you to use as much of your resources out, and give you as much less for either paying or free 2 play.
WR has always been a resource management game in disguise. I have no control on what Pixo decides to give or takeaway from me, but I can control how to spend what resources I have. Been only using the default 20pc repair since I started.
I like the 20 cell repair because sometimes I feel the bigger one gets wasted by butting into the shrinking max cap of durability while in combat.
Smartest comment here yet. It's a duh thing for me. And Quartermaster is a must have.
Honestly, phase shift is the most versatile
I will remove the unstable conduit immediately and go back to advanced rep unit, even tho i have almost 300k pc, the healing from unstable is not worth at all being 1.7%x45 secs (it takes too long to repair meaningfully) and i dont feel the need to shield break the enemy.
Good assessment. I've always used the cheap 20pc repair and it's helped me amass 300k just like you.
I noticed a drop in pc in the last few months and idk where pixo reduced them from as i have not spend pc a lot more than what i used to (i have or had unstable conduit on all my bots pretty much) good thing i have trixie hope on my weyland.

It’s 200 PCs. I doubt anyone but the whaliest of whales will run it.
There sure is a lot of whales in CL. I get bedwetted and roasted almost every match. RIP Rook.
Why Rook?
Rook use to be so awesome, then bedwetter w flames just bakes him off in 3 seconds. I avoid them now and capture beacons and swat small bots.
Ah yes that's exactly what I do too. I thought there was another nerf with this update. I run from beacon to beacon. When my TRAs are charged I have taken down a flaming Eiffel and a flaming Bedwetter, but purely through luck and timing my abilities.
So that is why Quartermaster skill exist
lol remind me again how much quartermaster reduces the pc cost?
The maxed of the skill cost 138 for 31.25%
Still a bit steep for me.
Even the price is unstable 😔
And I always use Quartermaster. What would anyone not??
Damn that’s insane right after nerfing all the damn pc rewards these last few months
Yep, i notice a drop in pc the last few months, that is what i have been telling people.
![gif](giphy|3o7aTFWIdZi4kRVijm|downsized)
*Removes all UC* No thank you
UC=user control?
Unstable conduit = UC. I'm generally too lazy to type out the names 😆
Ok, thanks. A lot has changed through the years, like Gg used to mean gotta go. Now it's good game. I've seen Ui used for something other than user interface and Uc used to be user control. Just trying to keep up.
You know that right?
Folks. IT GIVES YOU 45 SECONDS OF HEALING AND SB. And only 5 sec cooldown. Tanks will benefit greatly from this. Especially Ultimate Fenrir.
I am aware of the long duration, it’s just an absurdly OP and expensive module, even spamming phase shifts as much as you can you can’t spent half the power cells per minute as you would with this module
Yes, but imo we all need more testing before we can conclude if this is viable or not. Its not for all robots for sure.. it suits tanks.
It will certainly be viable, just limited only to people with infinite PC
Well, not equpping to all my robots for sure. I only have 1 ue fenrir...
So yeah, you can spend 200 pc if you dont have quartermaster skill every 50 sec with this module, matches last around 300secs, that is 300/50*200= 1200 pc per match! If you play 6 matches a day then 7200pc, that is 216k pc a month.. oof this is if you dont use a titan ofc and keep spamming the unstable conduit module.
My Typhon, Cthulhu, and Demeter are making a small victory dance.
From 70 to 200 no wonder my cells were dissaparing won't be using it anymore, thanks pixonic, imagine your bank doing this to your mortgage,! riots
Can’t say anything else other than the absolute gall
Holy crap
That is terrible
I feel better about the viability of my 2 Dagons now after this.
I like it. Pixo equally hates all players!
Pixo destroyed discrimination 🗣️🔥
To this day I've never equipped unstable conduit. Those of you complain 200 is too expensive should've been with me saying 40 was too expensive and I shouldn't have to pay for a mechanic in the game.
Me neither lol
Does it go through Bedwyr shields?
It should. Those are absorber shields.
This there last couple money grabs they can do
Yeah but it will be really good for extermination( but pix nerfed it like ugh. 🙃). Wished that they hadn't nerfed extermination or else this new version of the Unstable Conduit would be really useful in gathering resources.... but yeah, it will be totally horrible to use in regular battles as it cost too much per use and you can probably still get annihilated by strong/highly upgraded titan weapons(solid/high dps).

Good thing I don't use it anymore

So what you're saying is you lack skills so have to have an unbreakable shield
No, other bots have things of equivalent value that don't have braindead counterplay, for example there's no “anti transcender” module to nullify the Ravana’s strengths. 45 seconds of shieldbreaker is fundamentally unbalanced. Without any shield the Dagon is trash and the Ares is worse.

This you? https://www.reddit.com/r/ChubbyGirlsGW/s/i0suuY97MO
Yup, I'm a grown ass man who likes them thick. Apparently you like them thick as well 😜
Lmao
100/120 would probs be fair. Cos it’s basically 2 modules at once. Then again I didn’t even run it at 70PCs, so I don’t really care
Inflation coming back with this one 💀
Gone
Whoa that's some spicy meatballs... Glad I don't use it.
It's always been a stupid investment I'm WR 70 is wayyy to high. Let alone 200
pass.
46 second sheild breaker wsnt a bug? Well tune to retire every single sheild robot
Fkin hell, the duration is 45 seconds, and only 5 sec cooldown time. No wonder it costs 200 because almost all the time you are under the effects.
They did buff it.
Pix what are you doing to our modules now??
Proof of the lack of intelligence of some of today's players. You know someone is buying it. Lol
This is bullshit. It use to be 60, and then 70. What a ripoff.
And it for thas I use mender to counter cell me hangar is full healer XD
Or just not use this active module
Thanks for the heads-up! I had this on 2 robots, just draining my powercells.
But what are you getting for the cost of the power cells? Let's use advanced repair and shield break versus the new UC.

I was wondering how the hell I used up all my power cells
That Dagon will probably not be necessary in 7 weeks. Lol
So THAT'S why I went from 200 to 0 power cells in a split second. Thanks Mygames or whoever runs the game, you've made me Power Cell poor!
Wow now you can pay 200 cells to wonder if it’s doing anything! ![gif](giphy|pCO5tKdP22RC8)

Here's the tradeoff though. As soon as pathfinders with pilot become prevalent, this UC will be moot.
Why would user control be boot?
Pathfinder pilot gives the entire team shield break when they use their ability. Find a good pilot and you're saving power cells.
That's thinking
