    You’ve got some misinformation here. The AMR DOES pierce heavy armour. It DOES NOT pierce “tank” armour.
    Light armour is class 2
    Medium armour is class 3
    Heavy armour is class 4
    Tank armour is class 5+
    AMR has AP4, Hulks eye is class 4, rest of its body class 5
    AMR does have heavy pen, it just doesn’t have anti tank pen

    • @Grebogoborp

      Actually the hulks body got moved to class 4 as well that’s why you get a white hit marker with the revolver even when you miss the eye

      The tanks have weakpoints in the back that can be penetrated by an AMR.
      Also, the turret of shredder tanks can be penetrated, but not the front plates. Considering shredder tanks cannot be out-turned, one thing you can do is to use their cannons to climb on top of them from the front and shoot the turret from the top. Actually, this is easier with an AMR and a Laser Cannon than with a railgun (takes too many shots), and it's impossible for an Autocannon (due to the AoE explosive damage).
      Of course, this used to be more relevant before the thermite grenades buff though. With them + supply pack, tanks are no longer a problem.

      Also, the Quasar can handle tanks from more than just the back, hitting the corners of the Shredder tank armour plates results in a one shot (don’t as me how), for regular cannon variants, hitting the back 1/3 of the side also results in a one shot.

    I was actually maining the AMR today, after using the railgun since the 60-day patch, and I found it really rewarding. Just aim your shots, don't panic. You can 1-2 shot berserkers and devastators and 2-3 shot Hulks, but if you panic and start randomly firing then this can almost triple the kill times. Same with gun ships, although you do have to lead your shots more than you would have to with the rail gun.I haven't used it on the illuminate yet but I hope it absolutely destroys those overseers.

    • @DutchGuyMike

  • @Xagroth
    @Xagroth 3 дня назад +4

    Weapon loadout is not only about the weapon being "good", it's also about what you aim for in synergies. For example, if you already carry the sabot medium pen slugs shotgun, you'll be aiming for large game with an even heavier supporting weapon (heavy pen MG, commando, recoiless...) offloading all chaff onto other players, or an infantry hunter by adding an MG or grenade launcher.
    The problem with the AMR is the counter-sniper rifle, which has med pen too, and the Senator with heavy pen for those hulks. If the AMR had heavy pen, or more ammo per clip, I think it may get more popular, since it is a semiauto sniper rifle, even counting the killzone plas-sniper (med pen and explosive, just needs to charge and 3 shots per mag, 9 mags...)

      WDYM?????? The AMR DOES have heavy pen! It penetrates class 4 (heavy) armor! It simply does not penetrate Tank (5) armor, which is different, and only appears on part of tanks, buildings, and parts of factory striders. Even then, those enemies have multiple medium armored weakpoints which can be penetrated by not just the AMR, but even the MG.

    AMR is good my issue with it is twofold 1: it does not one shot hulk eyes, FS chin turrets (i think), devastator thoraxes/heavy devastator backpacks, and gunship engines unlike railgun
    2: no third person reticle is personally unbearable.
    For those reasons I usually stick to the railgun personally but the AMR is decent. The railgun also is able to take out the fortress turrets in one shot as well as being able to pen the front of regular turrets (although it takes like 5-6 rounds to kill then this way so not recommended unless other options are not available). It can also one shot anti air and mortar emplacements as well as being able to kill the main FS cannon and take out the FS itself in only 6-8 shots to the eye. The railguns versatility against any threat on the bot front no matter how large or armored combined with how forgiving it is with landing shots (IE only needing to hit anywhere on the body of a devastator to kill it) make it better in my book especially since the AMR has no third person reticle and the scopes in this game are a bit janky

  • @NewYear7878
    @NewYear7878 2 дня назад

    The AMR is a beast against bot. My only concern is that if you aim well enough to consistently headshot devastators, a diligence is enough. That's why I don't bring AMR nor Railgun often even though they're great. It's TOO much for what I use it for and I have a less expensive tool for this role. I would admit that the AMR can get rid of way more ennemies than the diligence though.

  • @PrinceNikkoTethlar
    @PrinceNikkoTethlar 3 дня назад +1

    Ever since I saw a build guide with it that I dubbed "Sniper Fairy", the AMR has been my go-to bots weapon. The load out from that guide goes:
    Scythe
    Senator pistol
    Stun Grenades
    AMR
    Jetpack
    Aerial burst Orbital
    Air Strike
    The Stun Grenade+AMR against Hulks always works a treat. Against chaff, the Air Burst and Scythe gets the job done right quick, the Air Strike gets rid of factories and super-large targets, and the jetpack just gets you out of bad situations and into vantage points. Very solid build~

    The AMR is phenomenal. Ok, it's not a panik weapon like a quasar and you have to know your enemy but if you do, the high fire rate and the magazine let you clear multiple medium or even large enemies in the same time you have to wait for cooldown on the quasar for example. Oh and you can reload while running away and have plenty of ammo for a support weapon that isn't an MG.

    @blehmeh9889 День назад

    Are you sure the AMR loses penetration at range? I’ve done plenty of sniping with it and I’ve taken down plenty of cannon towers and hulks from long range. It should be noted that the angle of impact is the single greatest factor for penetration outside of the weapon and armor in question; glancing blows lose penetration power, so try to maneuver or wait until you have a head-on angle to the part you’re trying to shoot.

      Nah, dudes trippin, it does.
      Should be noted that heavy pen isn’t actually the highest pen value.
      They go as follows:
      2- light armor (liberator)
      3 - medium armor (MG-43)
      4 - heavy armor (AMR)
      5 and up - various levels of tank armor (anti-tank weapons such as EAT or recoilless rifle)
      It should be noted that every moving enemy with tank armor in the game also has weakpoints with only heavy or even medium armor. For instance, the bile titan has tank armor on some parts, but the forehead is only heavy armor (so you can headshot the BT with an AMR or HMG or laser cannon to deal damage). All of the tanks on the automaton front have tank armor on the front, but only medium armor (yes, medium, not even heavy!) on the back of the body.

    the problem with the AMR is that against bots, its a weapon u gota aim at weakpoints, nad is used against hulks, devastators, scout striders and berserkers, while you can use it against the tanks and do some damage to the weapons of the factorystrider, its usualy more reliable to just use a recoilles, and thats the problem, its just easyer to use a recoiless, but if you got skill, the AMR will have so much more ammo
