Swindle170 wrote:Exactly it is smart. I see why they are doing it and agree with them, I am just complaining because for some odd reason I enjoy it. To be honest a lot of it was my disappointment at Windblade being at the forefront (ever so slight exaggeration used) again. I just feel Windblade is being overused at the expense of other characters. Not that I have any problems with people who like Windblade. I just don't like her personally and feel that she is being overused.

Back on topic (This somehow turned into a rant about Windblade) I mostly hope we see some more characters that don't get massive attention (My private hope is Trailbreaker and Nightbeat joining, however unlikely). It's times like this I am glad Swindle and the Combaticons are used quite often and are well known. (They may not be Optimus or anything but they are still quite well known.)

They can both be ,mine is for seibertron members only since you made yours before the game was officially launched it has non seibertronians in it

I like this better than Earth Wars. I'm very curious what events/expansions they'll do. There are many "obvious" characters (as already noted) that they have to saving for something. Bring on the DinoBots! maybe someday they'll have separate battle areas for combiners or citybots...

Iron Prime wrote:I shouldn't be. I'll double check...

I left again and asked again. Hopefully it sticks this time...

About Waspinator:

Faction: Predacons

Class: Demolitions

Despite his loyalty to the Predacon cause, the stalwart Waspinator never gets the respect he deserves from both his team mates or the universe. He has a knack for being crushed, smashed, and torn apart, but this bug has shown himself to be nearly indestructible, always appearing reassembled and ready for the next battle.
Stats and Abilities:

2-Star:

Health: 1662
Attack: 144
Max Rating: 571

3-Star:

Health: 4081
Attack: 302
Max Rating: 1326

4-Star:

Health: 10606
Attack: 785
Max Rating: 3524

Basic Abilities:

Passive:

When Waspinator drops below half of his Base Health, he diverts power to his ranged weapons, doubling Projectile Speed for the remainder of the fight.
When Waspinator drops below a quarter of his Base Health, he gains a 15~29% Special Damage for the remainder of the fight.

Ranged Attacks

Basic ranged attacks sting the opponent, inflicting a 20~28% Resistance De for 2 seconds after a short delay.

Heavy Attacks

100% chance to instantly inflict a 20~28% Resistance De for 5 seconds.
100% chance to Nullify a Resistance .

Signature Ability – Waspinator Lives!

Waspinator’s ability to endure otherwise fatal blows and quickly reassemble himself makes him a tough bot to take out.

On Knockout Blow

If Waspinator’s HP would become 0 he instead becomes Invulnerable, Purifies all Des and Heals 1~20% of his health.

Special Attacks

Special 1 – Eye Lasers

Waspinator overloads his optic sensors!

70~90% chance to gain a 13~25% Precision , increasing Critical Rate and lowering the opponent’s chance of Evading attacks for 5~7 seconds.

Special 2 – Unsteady Sting Shot

Waspinator use kick then Waspinator use gun.

100% chance to instantly inflict a 20~28% Resistance De for 5 seconds.
100% chance to Nullify a Resistance .

Special 3 – Surprise ‘Nuke

Now Waspinator has the giant bomb! Now Waspinator is greatest of Predacons!

This attack has a 100% chance Waspinator Burns the opponent dealing Heat Damage equal to 100% of his attack over 5 seconds.

Synergy Bonuses:

Enemies with Rhinox
Rhinox and Waspinator both receive increased Attack Rating when paired with each other.
1~8% Attack Rating.

Sky Assault with Windblade
Waspinator and Windblade receive improved tracking when paired with each other.
Opponents become 5~25% less evasive.

Weaponsmiths with Mixmaster
Waspinator gains an increased Critical Chance on Heavy Attacks when paired with Mixmaster.
6~15% Heavy Attack Critical Hit

Strong Match-ups:

Ultra Magnus
Ultra Magnus’s Resistance s make him one of the tougher bots in the game, but weakening the Resistances of bots is Waspinator’s specialty. Resistance down and Nullification of Resistance s make the Wasp a great counter for the Autobot leader.
Arcee
Waspinator’s Signature Ability to nullify des allows him to stave off death from bleeding once per fight. Arcee’s low health also becomes a serious disadvantage when facing a well timed Special Attack from Waspinator.

Weak Match-ups:

Rhinox
Rhinox’s Shield offers the perfect counter to Waspinator’s punishing Special Attacks. The Shield’s ability to withstand Waspinator’s Ranged Attacks ensure it is available when the Wasp unleashes his highest damage.
Mirage
The quickest way to mitigate Waspinator’s powerful Special Attacks is to deny him Power. Mirage’s Power Drain mode will allow him to keep Waspinator from unleashing his full damage.

Recommended Modules for Waspinator:

Offense: Superconductor-1000
Waspinator has some of the most devastating Special Attacks, and the Superconductor 1000 helps him use them more often, and with less resistance.
The Superconductor-1000 is exclusive to the Raid Store.
Defense: Repair Module
Waspinator’s Signature Ability gives him more opportunity to heal up with the Repair Module’s abilities, helping ensure he sticks around for fight after fight.
The Repair Module is found in the Premium Module Crystal.
Utility: Paralyzer
The chance to Stun gives Waspinator’s Sting more time to shine by keeping opponents from escaping while they’re vulnerable.
The Paralyzer Module is exclusive to the Alliance Crystal and Alliance Missions.

It always did.
It made your bots more powerful

Greetings Commanders!

After lots of suggestions from our players, we are adding a way for players to turn their unused bots into Shards. Starting today, when you Forge a bot into another Bot, you will receive Crystal shards for the next Crystal Tier! That means that forging a 2-Star Bot will grant you 3-Star Bot Crystal Shards, and forging a 3-Star Bot will grant you 4-Star Bot Crystal Shards.

The amount of shards you receive will scale depending on Rank, Level and Signature Level. You'll also gain more Forge XP based on the Signature Level of the Bots being forged. This will not be retroactive, and will only apply to Bots that are forged following the change.

This change will take effect at 6pm PST tonight.

About Prowl:

Faction: Autobots

Class: Scout

He may look like your friendly neighborhood cop on patrol, but check under the hood and he’s 100% military-trained police on a mission to serve and protect. He’s a trusted strategist and friend of Optimus Prime, but he’s decidedly less friendly to those who don’t follow protocol…his protocol.

SIGNATURE ABILITY – GOOD COP:

After charging his Melee Buffs, Prowl gets a surge of Power based on how many Melee Buffs he activated.

Passive:

After charging his Melee Buffs, Prowl gets 1.5 ~ 4% Power for each Melee Buff activated.


SPECIAL ATTACKS:

Special 1 – Short Circuit

His short fuse and their short circuit.

100% chance to Power Burn, consuming up to 23.8 ~ 36.4% of the target’s max Power.
If the opponent reaches zero Power as a result of this Power Burn, the strength of their Power Gain Buffs is reduced by 15% for the rest of the fight.


Special 2 – Gunslinger

Locked, loaded, and he’s quick on the draw. Watch Out!

Increases Ranged Damage by 29.5 ~ 36.4% and Ranged Speed for 6 seconds.


Special 3 – Ride Shotgun

Riding shotgun with Prowl is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

100% chance to Power Lock, severing the target’s flow of Power for 16 seconds.

Autobot On Patrol - Prowl

Derek Dishes Dirt on Prowl’s Animations

Cuz: When animating Prowl in his vehicle mode, did you look to famous cop cars for inspiration...you know like Starsky and Hutch’s muscle car, Kojak’s classic undercover sedan, or maybe Scooby’s Mystery Machine?

Derek: We often gather reference from any source that makes sense to the character, even ones mentioned above. But the idea of Prowl burning out while towing a bot on a chain behind him was purely inspired by me playing with transformer action figures at my desk. I just happened to have Prowl and Starscream at my desk and a beaded necklace left over from one of our staff parties, and Just like that I was back at my parents house playing bad ass cop versus the world.

Cuz: Which special was more satisfying to direct Prowl's pump shotty blast or savage baton beatdown?

Derek: This is a tough one, because I like them both, but if had to pick one I would say the “pump shotty blast”. Just because this special was inspired from “Charles Bronson” he was very bad ass with his gun.

Cuz: That’s pretty rad because Chuck was the original Action Bronson...kind of like how Prowl was the original tough guy Transformers cop.


Prowl Gets The Piero Treatment

Cuz: As one Prowl’s gameplay designer you’d be able to answer a good cop/bad cop question that’s been bothering me. I have a pretty solid Barricade (bad cop) on my team, and Prowl (good cop) is now entering the Fight. As I tend to dig bad things, why should I want a hard boiled law enforcer like Prowl? Break him down for me.

Piero: The character team worked really hard to make his moves and abilities feel great while also capturing his “Good Cop” personality. At the start of the fight, Prowl can Dash Back and try to “persuade the opponent” into giving up fighting, which in the end, results in Prowl dealing a lot of damage.

While the tension is building up, he can Stun opponents with his Ranged Attacks and passively gain Melee Damage Buffs that prepares Prowl for the inevitable big fight. What I usually do in this stage is to Dash Back, Sidestep Up and Down while also using Ranged Attacks in order to build up the maximum amount of Melee Damage Buffs.

When the opponent tries to land an attack, Prowl goes into the offensive and deals massive damage with his Melee Attacks. His Signature Ability “Good Cop” also provides a great amount of Power when Prowl goes into the offensive. All those abilities will prove that being a Good Cop is the best thing.

Cuz: Let’s talk mods and Prowl. Did you guys make a special handcuffs and sirens mod for him? If not, boo. In lieu of that cool idea, what ,mod would you recommend for Prowl?

Piero: His Special 2 deals -amazing- damage. I would recommend using the Superconductor-2000 or Robot Resource in order to activate it more often!

Using Prowl with the Repair Module would also be great! Prowl tries to keep himself at a distance before attacking with his fully charged Melee Damage Buffs, because of that, fights might last longer and the Regeneration will trigger more. I am excited to try out this combo when he comes out on May 18th.

Nick Talks Chains and Nightsticks

Cuz: As much as I hate getting my car towed, I have to admit that it’s pretty cool seeing old Prowl extend his chains and take the perp for a ride. Tell us about creating that effect.

Nick: I wanted to enhance Prowls chain by making it look “charged”, but getting the electrical FX to stick onto Prowls chain was tricky. Purple electricity flows along the chain as it twists in all directions. The second part of that effect are the sparks emitting from the victim to convey grinding along the floor.

Cuz: I’ve noticed that Prowl’s beatdown baton is pink. Or is that reddish-purple? What was the thinking behind that? Wouldn’t an Energon infused nightstick smack the Energon right into the enemy?

Nick: Prowl moves fast during his baton attack. We wanted to make sure that Prowl’s nightstick and FX really stood out, so yes, the baton is reddish-purple. The blue-ish electrical FX are more readable at speed this way. The baton attack causes electrical FX on the opponent as a ”power burn” to the opponent before the next hit.

Cuz: Thanks for the gameplay related FX info. Looks like you’re gunning for Piero’s job;)
