          Othuum is not an Armored Assault Bot.
          Also, I believe they were talking about the Seraphim Sniper bots.


          On a 2nd note... What are we discussing here?

                Ya I don't like some factions getting T3 heavy bots and others getting normal bots + snipers. I want to mindlessly spam exactly 1 unit type and win just like on T1 and T2.

                Would be cool if SCUs were viable though.

                  Between the Brick and the Percival, the brick has caused me more headache is more use cases, destroying my things and just taking hit after hit, potentially sinking into the water. Oddly enough, I've had more luck USING the Percival than the brick, that high alpha damage has served me great.

                  The sniper bots are great, though I've never really used the toggle function on the Seraphim sniper bot. On paper it sounds pretty devastating if you see something horrible coming your way, I've never managed to make use of it properly, I'm always afraid they're going to overkill too hard and waste it.

                      My guess is they initially had hover in development, and the unit design reflected that. Then they did some playtesting and realized what absolute cancer that would be.

                          Seraphim sniper bots mixed in with navy and shields.

                            @deribus seraphim leverage has it as a mode, its actually not bad. only time it sucks is maps that have water but no means to have navy. basically 5 sniper bots under a t3 shield with a flack are comparable to a destroyer or 2
