Plays like Orion with that damage boost implant, plus you get a shield. Not bad at all. I'm not looking forward to bots blocking escape routes with that shield though.
ikr? thats the nightmare part of this mech.....ugh
And he’s fast, and he’s a heavy, AND a tank.
This mech is total BS
Oh, finally some actual video. Not just talking about the trailer, dev talks and personal speculations. Finally can see what thing does. Thank you
I try to provide as much as info as i can when its actually available. Sometimes speculating helps especially when others ask my opinion anyways. But agreed - actual footage is always best when it can be done.
I hope y'all noticed the thing where a segment of Blockhorn disappears, meaning that he CARRIES that barricade like a backpack, similar to Arachnos!
thicc spooder boi go brr
brattatatatatata
You're going to be happy.
More thicc for your hangar
if you try to hit translate into English on your comment, it just says: thicc spooder boi go brr
which is indeed the grammatically correct way to say this. well done sir.
is overdriver gonna be your next favourite weapon after minigun?
Clearly one of the halo loving devs got his way to implement the shield and overheat weapon. :p
some features ive seen on this is that, if his shield breaks, his ability cooldown will be 13 seconds instead of 6
It kinda seems like a hybrid between Panther, Aegis and Ares. It's sheild dosent move around like Ares but it's very similar. The sheild can protect multiple people like Aeigis and Panther and it has HP. It also has the same amount of energy capacity like Panther to , I honestly think that this mech is like Panther 2.0 in my opinion
Describe the internet in a single sentence:
Me: “Too much Drake not enough Scape”
🤣
@@scape211I mean I’m not wrong
So he is an Ares mixed with Brickhouse, Arachnos and Scorpius. Cool combo., sick backpack. Looks a bit like scarab
I remember when I had an idea JUST LIKE THIS a while ago, and suggested it
well maybe they took your advice!
Thanks Brother.
Another Home Run Review!
Godspeed and Blessings
I had an idea a while ago for a high energy tank that would anchor in place and get ~30% damage boost and a reduction to incoming damage as well. This is kind of different. The small range of the damage boosting area of the shield makes it so you will mostly be boosting yourself or a single person still making it so you're not doing a lot of moving. But then on top of that the shield wall also acts as a physical barrier for opponents. This lets it fill several roles including DPS, support, tank and area control. It might even be the best for area control. And DPS as well.
Overall thoughts: Blockhorn is cool. Hell, it might even be overpowered, we'll see. I'm worried about that 60% damage increase with the implant. My idea was for it to have 30% tops so it would be slightly higher dps than the 50% boosting mid energy mechs. This makes it the highest DPS by a country mile.
Another note, theoretically this damage increase should stack with a brickhouse boost as well, having the blockhorn doing 240% well over double damage. And it has 32 energy. Might need a NERF down the line I think
Informative vid. Thnx scape
Blockhorn has a horn🗿
he should does.
side note: I keep wanting to call him blackhorn. It sounds cooler to me and his darker skins fit that. I actually rerecorded a couple lines where i said it wrong lol
Op
you're doing a great job, thank you
Cool ability concept, but it'll probably be wasted on campers. The weapon is just meh.
Scape uploaded day gets better
I currently run Onyx with the minigun and I agree that the damage output is comparable to the overdriver with minigun probably being a little more powerful. That said, once you deplete your magazine you have a 13 second wait to reload. I would say that minigun is better for clearing an area and laying down suppressing fire, but can be vulnerable if caught on the reload. The Overdriver sacrifices a little on the firepower to eliminate that weakness. When you need to hold an area for a sustained period in which both sides have some cover, overdriver will be the better weapon because it keeps you in the fight longer.
I do feel that killing enemies in this game typically provides more than just holding a position so the minigun tends to edge this weapon out. In that sense, DPS outweighs TTK or long term DPS.
Overall though I tend to agree. I think both have different functions and can work for various players. Its just hard not to categorize weapons based on overall effectiveness vs each other at times :)
@@scape211 I run a hanger with a mix of mechs and weapons so that I can pivot to different strategies depending on what is needed at the time. I usually have one mech in the mix that is designed to hold the line, but that's probably just because I prefer team games. It can help a team bounce back after getting decimated by buying time for everybody time to respawn and regroup.
Yes
This weapon has more compatability and minigun has more damage.
yea thats seems to be fairly true
I like the new assault, ofcourse it won't fit in the end game but it looks fun to use.
agreed. def fun and decent in general play. But it will be hard in top end meta to use it.
Interesting mech and weapon.
If i would have Blockhorn i would probably put Railguns on it, the shield has a pretty short duration and increasing it is not much worth it because it can be torn down pretty fast by multiple enemies (or 2 EM Rifle shots).
RuFFles used Railguns on it in his video about the mech, he said the DMG increase implant is bugged and doesn't work right now. Railguns 16 + 30% DMG increase did ALOT of DMG per shot, imagine how disgusting Railgun 16 + 60% DMG increase would be.
Yea i agree. when i was testing this (and we had a very short window to test), I thought ability duration and a beefy shield would be viable. But against bots or heavy burst meta it can get taken down fast. Really just the cooldown and damage boost seem necessary for the mech.
Some devil gonna put fuse mortar 16s on this
I believe Overdriver on Puma will be OP😂
this is correct
I fell that the devs are starting to give mechs combo abilities that have passives
I never knew it would drop early
yes it was early! we didnt even have test server acess when it was shown like a day or 2 ago. So i rushed to record all this lol
And it was random, too. I, at least, never expected a new, lamely legendary Mech to appear. But MAN HE'S AWESOME!
Holy shit, block horn looks amazing
Wow this game is so great it's amazing is what I would be saying lol if these misdirected developers would just change a few things...
Lacks behind minigun you say? Well of course. They planned it as an assault not heavy duty. I don't think that even latest addition Viper can pull the weight and be on par with minigun
Agreed and honestly the way it should be. I assume thats why they gave minigun a damage boost in the last balance patch knowing these assualt weapons where coming up. Assualt weapons with no dowsides shouldnt outpace a heavy weapon in dmg when it has a downside. Again though, I havent tested it. On paper it lags behind and that seems correct to me too.
You are so much better than omniverse he is SOOOO fake you give real gameplay and stats and show what a game would be like not be in noob lobbies with a maxed lvl mech and weapon doing like 3-4 matches so happy you make youtube i also love watching and learning from your F2P series to help me with the game
He definitely was created to counter the meta mechs atleast some of them.
I tend to agree. Bastion can do some of that already, but this mech has a more defensive style. To me its just another tank option that will be meta viable and I can appreciate that.
6:13 well we gotta buy the mech too the use it lol
you dont have to buy the mech for overdriver, but yea - the boosting blockhorn gives would be very useful. Im still on the fence with the overdriver weapon tbh
I am also facing the same black screen issue.
First
finally we have a 32 energy tank
Aries + agies + brickhouse =horn mech in addition both mech and weapon is legendary why? we ask for epic weapons and mech MA got us mortars + mines this is totally sh ity MA is promoting legendary stuff more if they give us epic then it will has no use .
Why MA cause of greed ?
Basically, Overdriver is basically the DOOM Eternal Chaingun (especially Mobile Turret mod) but Blockhorn? Damn. He's crazy.
is that a more recent DOOM gun? I only played the classics and cant remember.
@@scape211 Yup. Specifically the Eternal (2020) Chaingun.
@@scape211 Speaking of DOOM, Blockhorn's test server skin looks like something STRAIGHT out of DOOM. Especially the red halo reminding me of the Crucible Sword. Basically, Hellhorn.
Now imagine a stalker with predator drive attacking an enemy from behind on overheat, marked by orion, buffed by brickhouse, AND buffed the damage boosting shield. Absolutely insane.
Using EM rifles
back damage doesn't matter w/ onion
I dont believe you will be able to use this boost and the BH boost at the same time. Based on past tests, it usually just picks the better buff and cancels the other out iifc. I have not tested it though.
Wow blocking EMP??? That's crazy
ikr? and im not even sure what other abilities it might counter. its a bit vague. needs testing!
looks like itll be the best tank in the game
Not sure if it will but it will be up there and could compete for a spot with bastion if someone wants an end game tank
First comment
Ares and brick house
THICC BOI GO BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAA
Those stats are rather ridiculous. I’d almost have expected them to add a mythic class and throw this guy in.
Something tells me they’re hurting for $$$ if they’re gonna toss in something so game breaking (because they know everyone at end game will need to buy it).
The stats are crazy but even with these stats, it’s still not going to be the best mech in the game or be in all end game hangars. Tanks just don’t compete as well as faster mechs when hp is valued less than damage overall. So speed actually does more. It’s why you always see surge, nomad, and eclipse in every top hangar. At best, this mech will compete for a spot with bastion when people want to run a tank imo
I don't know about the mech but the weapon is nice
tbh i love the feel, look, and sound of the weapon. I just wish it competed a little better at top end. But in reality I cant know for sure. This is only the test server so its hard to know if it can hold its own in real pvp.
Hey scape, I am tier 5 am thinking of saving for a legendary pilot is it too soon? Hope you can help me out
How much does it cost to upgrade graviton beam 10 to 6 stars please reply
It cost exact a simple google search on a forum that holds info on resource cost. Also, videos on RUclips show you exactly how much if you just watch and count as they press the upgrade button. Use your brain and stop asking others to waste time for you.
please check the mech arena costs and stats document in my description for all details on upgrade costs.
@@scape211 Thanks did not know the document existed very helpfull
You didn't show us their location in the gear hub?
You are right I didn’t. Given how quickly I had to make this video I’m sure I missed some things. But if you want to know he will be on the last tier with seeker
Scape211 I have doubt
I have eclipse with disruptor 8 ,nomad with ember 10 and 8 ,gatecrasher with em 12 and seeker with storm rack 8
Can I buy surge or scorpius as my 5th mech
Can u tell fast bro
Surge fs. Just a better overall mech
What’s that white square in the middle of the screen?
That was from the savant weapon. That’s it’s targeting system. It’s a little annoying because it covers so much space 😅
Cant wait for bots blocking the way even better.. blocking you from going back to cover.. gg
this actually did happen to me some. Seems ideal to pick spots where you have more room than just a lane to backup...
la con Chain gun
wtf?! hybrid tank attacker haha
Blockhorn (dildo spider) looks op and balanced. It can have lots of use in meta. And this time you have quite positive tone, generally its disappointed lol
looks OP and balanced? interesting as those sound opposite, but i think i get what you mean. He does seem very strong and beyond what we normally see for a tank. But he is also meta capable without appearing to entirely dominate the meta. As for my tone, it likely depends on the content i make and how im feeling at the time of recording lol
NAH BRUH, DILDO SPOODER??? LMAO💀💀💀
@@scape211 sry i choose wrong words, i meant strong but balanced. And yh i meant finally they released something that got you positive else its always some crappy disappointing stuff
@@user-wb9zf9km4x he has one on ita head
@@user-wb9zf9km4x its has giant toy on its head lol 😆
Not op i do like how the sheild aint connected and the boost is near the sheild
It’s not gonna be meta. Storm racks will eat through that shield. This mech will be put in an already long line of useless mechs
I have not tested it, but this does have a shield durability implant. That might be a viable option if people fear the SRs. I dont think that alone with make it useless but it is a great way to keep it in check. All mechs need to have something like that imo.
@@scape211 agreed but splashing the ground next to him will destroy the shield and kill the mech. Either way I don’t see this mech lasting very long at end game with Storm racks being so meta
Seeker gets an adherent damage buff plus the specialized damage implant specifically for seeker plus the bonus damage Storm racks gets for hitting shields. This mech is a hard sell lol
@@secretsforu I understand what you mean. SRs are definitely a viable counter, but given this can work as a counter to dash mechs and emp which are also meta it could more a rock/paper/scissors situation if it falls into meta. I have no idea right now though as I only tested it briefly with bots. You make a great point. We will just have to wait and see.
I forgot about the Storm Racks. But, you're absolutely correct. Hence the perk itself, Shieldbreaker.
How do I get test sever
You have to be an official content creator with plarium unfortunately
@@scape211 oh thanks
the assault weapon class is so bad comapred to MG's and GB's that they have to rip off miniguns
I dunno if I'd say its a rip off of miniguns. More like combining aspects of miniguns and GBs to make a flexible weapon with slightly less dps depending on the situation.
It's a buffed autocannon, that's for sure.
Let's see how bots will abuse this mech and weapon.
tbh i fear that. Bots placing random impassable shields in horrible spots and making all of the team get stuck is nightmare fuel.
@scape211 Yes, my point exactly
Another legendary mech😑 how unsuprising. Are epic and rare mechs just dead
The nature of this game is about moving up the gear hub now. Uncommons and rares are designed to be used for a time so I dont think it will make sense for the long term to make stuff that just wont see play for half of the community on release and only temp use for the other half. That said, epic stuff definitely does see play like Aegis, Panther, Orion, Ember guns, Helix, Nades, etc. And as for new items that are epics - we recently got the fuse mortars about a month ago and will likely have more of them. So I do think epics still have a space.
@@scape211 im just sad at how much you need to grind to unlock these mechs
@@gigachad864 yea thats fair. But anything new will have a waiting period on it anyways. Even when fragment guns came out, they didnt appear on the gear hub for like 6 months. Its just the nature of the game sadly.
Bro please accept my friend request 😢
I do not have space in the game to accept friend requests anymore sadly. You can friend me on Plarium play though.
